Abstract For nanotoxicology investigations of air-borne particles to provide relevant results it is ever so important that the particle exposure of, for example cells, closely resembles the "real" exposure situation, that the dosimetry is well defined, and that the characteristics of the deposited nanoparticles are known in detail. By synthesizing the particles in the gas-phase and directly deposi

In the Bas-Draa Inlier (Anti-Atlas, Morocco), the Paleoproterozoic basement which is cut by the Ediacaran Taourgha granite is also crosscut by numerous dykes of a variety of trends, mostly of uncertain age. Two doleritic dykes are dated by the ID-TIMS U-Pb method on baddeleyite and yield emplacement ages of 1381 +/- 8 Ma (MSWD = 0.84) and 1384 +/- 6 Ma (MSWD = 1.4) determined for a N135 degrees E

The 7th International Workshop on Virtual, Augmented, and Mixed Reality for Human-Robot Interaction (VAM-HRI) seeks to bring together researchers from human-robot interaction (HRI), robotics, and mixed reality (MR) to address the challenges related to mixed reality interactions between humans and robots. Key topics include the development of robots capable of interacting with humans in mixed reali

The ability of machine learning (ML) techniques to forecast the shear strength of corroded reinforced concrete beams (CRCBs) is examined in the present study. These ML techniques include artificial neural networks (ANN), adaptive-neuro fuzzy inference systems (ANFIS), decision tree (DT) and extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost). A thorough databank with 140 data points about the shear capacity of CR

Impactful applications such as materials discovery, hardware design, neural architecture search, or portfolio optimization require optimizing high-dimensional black-box functions with mixed and combinatorial input spaces. While Bayesian optimization has recently made significant progress in solving such problems, an in-depth analysis reveals that the current state-of-the-art methods are not reliab

Amid growing concerns about hardware security, comprehensive security testing has become essential for chip certification. This paper proposes a deep-testing method for identifying Trojans of particular concern to middle-to-high-end users, with a focus on illegal instructions. A hidden instruction Trojan can employ a low-probability sequence of normal instructions as a boot sequence, which is foll

Svensk djurskyddsregleringen samlas under två system, förvaltningsrätt och straffrätt. Båda tillför något unikt för att möjliggöra tillämpningen av ett ändamålsenligt djurskydd, samtidigt som djurskyddet inte vore detsamma utan dess uppbyggnad. Genom lagstiftningsarbete och föreskrifter i takt med dåvarande diskurs har djurskyddet utvecklats till att huvudsakligen regleras av två lagstiftningar, dThe Swedish regulation of animal welfare is based on two parallel systems, administrative law and penal law. Both systems are unique and contributes to the possibility of correctly applying law and regulations. Through legislative work and regulations by authorities, animal welfare is today mainly regulated by two legislations, The Animal Protection Act and Penal Code. The Animal Protection Act ha

Reflecting an emerging trend in democratic innovation to tackle complex socio-ecological challenges, the French Citizens’ Convention on Climate (CCC) was initiated in response to climate protests and the Yellow Vests movement to define measures for achieving a socially just 40% reduction in GHG-emissions. Approaching the CCC as both an outcome and site of hegemonic struggle, I apply social movemen

This study aims to examine customer acquisition strategies of multisided platforms and consumer perception towards them. It further aims to contribute to current literature by addressing present uncertainty regarding the relationship of customer acquisition and consumer perception. From a practical perspective it should help other multisided platforms to identify customer acquisition methods that

The purpose of this thesis is to clarify how, according to BEPS action 1 and action 7, can the amendments of the “specific activity exemptions” in article 5 paragraph 4 of the OECD Model Tax Convention on Income and Capital (the model convention) counter the issue of an artificial avoidance of a PE status. The main issues that are connected to the concept of a permanent establishment are artificia

Hadfield Steels make up a significant group of steels that can perform with their higher strength, excellent wear resistance, and good formability. To achieve this distinctive behavior along with the alloy compositions, heat treatment is also a vital factor. Alloy carbides can be controlled with various heat treatment techniques, as they directly affect the loss in strength, which eventually leads

Medvetandetillstånd som kraftigt skiljer sig från vanlig vakenhet, och som kan skapa långsiktigt positiva psykologiska konsekvenser har getts många namn. Några exempel är religiösa erfarenheter, peakerfarenheter och mystiska erfarenheter. Begreppet RSME (Religious, Spiritual, Mystical Experience) har använts för att beskriva att flera begrepp används för att beskriva en erfarenhet med gemensam kärMental states which greatly depart from normal wakefulness and have the ability to increase well-being have been given many names in psychology. A few famous examples are religious experiences, peak experiences and mystical experiences. The acronym RSME (Religious, Spiritual, Mystical Experience) was used to show that many names have been given to a phenomenon with a common core. The study of RSME

This essay deals with the so-called Islamic State´s propaganda paper Dabiq and how the use of history in it helps create historically based depictions of the Islamic State´s enemies. I have analysed the first four issues of Dabiq from 2014 and used Jakob Dahlbacka´s definition of religious use of history and prophetic use of history as an analytical frame. I have analysed both text and images in D

Sammanfattning Examensarbetet har som mål att beskriva miljöcertifieringars påverkan på byggprocessen och hur framtiden för miljöcertifieringar ser ut. Examensarbetet jämför de olika miljöcertifieringarna: Miljöbyggnad, BREEAM, LEED och Svanen mot varandra där fördelar och nackdelar beskrivs. Det utförs även en beskrivning för hur en miljöcertifiering av en ombyggnad enligt Miljöbyggnad 3.0 silver

With countries across the world finding pathways to counter CO2 emissions, sustainable mobility has become a critical topic for leaders, policymakers, and industries. The development of Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV’s) is seen as an important and effective way through which reliance on fossil fuels and thereby related CO2 emissions can be reduced. Statistics show that the number EV’s on the roads
