A two-mode phase field crystal (PFC) model is employed to investigate the equilibrium configurations of a range of grain boundaries in fcc-structured materials. A total of 80 different symmetrical tilt grain boundaries are evaluated by PFC simulations in 3D and the results are shown to agree well with data taken from the literature, both regarding the variation of grain boundary energy and also in

Elbilar kommer att spela en avgörande roll i omställningen till en fossilfri fordonsflotta. En förutsättning för att nå detta mål är dock att bilarna laddas med förnybar el och att laddningen sker smart för att inte överbelasta elnätet.Med hjälp av uppkopplad teknik och smarta tjänster, så kallad smart laddning, kan laddningen optimeras och bidra till ett mer flexibelt och stabilt elnät. Smart lad

This article analyzes the so-called turn to the market in Sweden, with an emphasis on aspects that are typically absent from large-scale narratives. How did the changes known as neoliberalization and financialization enter everyday life and mundane financial practices? And which analytical tools can historians use to meaningfully connect the experience of changes on the micro level to those on the

Epithelioid hemangioendothelioma (EHE) is an ultra-rare, translocated, vascular sarcoma. EHE clinical behavior is variable, ranging from that of a low-grade malignancy to that of a high-grade sarcoma and it is marked by a high propensity for systemic involvement. No active systemic agents are currently approved specifically for EHE, which is typically refractory to the antitumor drugs used in sarc

We present a high-repetition rate, atttosecond light source, emitting controlled short trains of attosecond pulses. We apply this source to the study of photoionization of atoms using a 3D photoelectron/ion coincidence spectrometer.

Proper irrigation scheduling and agricultural water management require a precise estimation of crop water requirement. In practice, reference evapotranspiration (ETo) is firstly estimated, and used further to calculate the evapotranspiration of each crop. In this study, two new coupled models were developed for estimating daily ETo. Two optimization algorithms, the shuffled frog-leaping algorithm

To bridge the pressure gap in heterogeneous catalysis and maximize the gain of operando information, we have combined PM-IRRAS with the imaging techniques SOR and PLIF and measured CO oxidation on a Pd(100) crystal.

This article intends to raise questions related to nationalism in South Asia, while also addressing the rationale for this special issue. Is nationalism a monolithic construct based on a European precedent or is it something much larger that is developed pluralistically in a variety of contexts around the world? If the latter is true, which is our position, then how do we go about studying the var

BACKGROUND: Current follow-up strategies for patients with renal cell carcinoma (RCC) after curative surgery rely mainly on risk models and the treatment delivered, regardless of the histological subtype. OBJECTIVE: To determine the impact of RCC histological subtype on recurrence and to examine the incidence, pattern, and timing of recurrences to improve follow-up recommendations. DESIGN, SETTING

Background: Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) of kidney stones is losing ground to more expensive and invasive endoscopic treatments. Objective: This proof-of-concept project was initiated to develop artificial intelligence (AI)-augmented ESWL and to investigate the potential for machine learning to improve the efficacy of ESWL. Design, setting, and participants: Two-dimensional ultraso

CONTEXT: The epidemiological signature of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) during the past decades is explained by overdetection and overtreatment of indolent cancers; furthermore, a non-negligible proportion of patients undergoing surgery for suspected RCC harbour benign renal tumours. As the gold standard for RCC diagnosis remains histopathological analysis of surgical or biopsy specimens, implementat

In comparison with instrumental sight reading of musical notation, sight singing is typically characterized by the presence of lyrics. The purpose of this study was to explore how skilled sight singers divide their visual attention between written music and lyrics and how their eye-movement behavior is influenced by musical stimulus complexity. Fourteen competent musicians performed 10 newly compo
