Probabilistic solvers provide a flexible and efficient framework for simulation, uncertainty quantification, and inference in dynamical systems. However, like standard solvers, they suffer performance penalties for certain stiff systems, where small steps are required not for reasons of numerical accuracy but for the sake of stability. This issue is greatly alleviated in semi-linear problems by th
The article explores the use of reflexive methodology to enhance mixed methods queer psychological research in Sweden, by analysing data from a qualitative research project on how LGBTQ people cope with minority stress from four epistemological perspectives. A descriptive, hermeneutically and phenomenologically inspired analysis showed that coping should be understood from temporal perspective, wh
The nonionic surfactant pentaethylene glycol-monododecylether C12E5 forms micelles in aqueous solutions with a lower critical solution temperature. This characteristic solution behavior of C12E5 is independent of the pH. Such micelles are used to solubilize a large variety of active guest molecules like for instance dyestuffs. An example is an acidic azo dye termed Blue used as a hair colorant. De
Key performance indexes (KPIs) in various forms have always been used in one way or another in the production and processing of raw materials. The need for KPIs was accentuated with the advent of industrialism in the western world. The way and strategy of manufacturing industrial products has been divided into several so-called developmental transformations. Primarily after the depression of the 1
This publication describes a concept that intends to enable an optimization of machining with regard to the balance between criteria related to technology, economy and sustainability. The work is of a discussion nature and intends to provide a framework for further research and development in the area. Previous research and development during the 80's and 90's is presented in general terms and in
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: The treatment landscape for patients with advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) has evolved significantly since the introduction of immunotherapies. We here describe PD-L1 testing rates, treatment patterns, and real-world outcomes for PD-(L)1 inhibitors in Sweden. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Data were obtained from the Swedish National Lung Cancer Registry for patients wit
Introduction: Early recognition of pain in children is crucial, and their self-report is the primary source of information. However, communication about pain in healthcare settings can be challenging. For non-verbal communication regarding different symptoms, children prefer digital tools. The electronic Faces Thermometer Scale (eFTS) utilizes a universal design with colors, face emojis, and numbe
A continuously growing and mutating market with increasing demands on environmental sustainability, illuminated by unraveling environmental threats, highlights the need for greater resource efficiency in modern manufacturing industries. Machining has become pivotal in the pursuit of sustainability given its superior efficiency in manufacturing of metallic products. In theory, the efficiency of a m
In medical and biomedical education, traditional teaching methods often struggle to engage students and promote critical thinking. The use of AI language models has the potential to transform teaching and learning practices by offering an innovative, active learning approach that promotes intellectual curiosity and deeper understanding. To effectively integrate AI language models into biomedical e
We explain how the accelerating field amplitude and phase vary with modulator voltage in pulsed radio frequency high-power amplifiers based on klystron tubes. Changes in modulator voltage give rise to correlated changes of amplitude and phase, affecting the properties of the accelerated beam, in particular energy, arrival time, and bunch duration. We show, both theoretically and experimentally, th
Objective. To examine the changes in health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) in terms of age, gender, and treatment strategy in Iran. Methods and Materials. Forty-nine patients responded to the Iranian version of the 36-item short form (SF-36) questionnaire to evaluate the HRQoL at first and third year after treatment. The paired and independentWilcoxo
This chapter provides an overview of current research on thinking-for-speaking and second language acquisition. The Thinking-for-Speaking hypothesis (Slobin, 1996) posits that whilst in the process of producing speech, speakers channel their attention according to the linguistic categories of their language. As a result, speakers of different languages think differently during speech production. W
The emergence of short video (e.g. TikTok) provides a new avenue for destination marketing. However, limited research exists on short ice-snow destination videos, which are significant for Nordic winter tourism marketing. Drawing on a model based on parasocial interaction theory, this study finds that ice-snow celebrity attachment positively predicts Chinese tourists’ parasocial interaction, enjoy
This chapter reviews the available empirical evidence for a universal metaphoric structure such as TIME IS SPACE and its effects on temporal cognition in L2 users. The chapter covers previous experimental evidence that lends support to the psychological reality of the TIME IS SPACE metaphor, while also revealing cross-linguistic differences in how this fundamental metaphor is instantiated across t
The temporal focus hypothesis (TFH) entails that individuals who value the past tend to conceptualize it in front, whereas individuals who value the future tend to map the future in front instead (de la Fuente et al., 2014). This varies as a function of culture, individual differences, and context. Here, we extend this line of inquiry by testing a contextual variable, namely COVID-19 quarantine st
Mapping of algae on facades and difficult-to-reach parts of tall buildings is demonstrated using a low-cost 3D-printed hyperspectral fluorescence lidar (HSFL).The 3D-printed HSFL has the potential for rapid and cost-effective remote assessment of algae.
Green inventory management is concerned with the overarching question of how to efficiently manage inventories and thereby material flows in supply chains, considering both economic and environmental consequences, commonly translated into costs and emissions. As inventory decisions are interlinked with production and transportation decisions, a total cost and emissions perspective is important to
