Alla naturligt förekommande grundämnen, med få undantag, har skapats i stjärnors inre. Några av dem har skapats långsamt och kontinuerligt och stora mängder har ansamlats under årmiljonerna. Andra har skapats under några få sekunder i några av de mest våldsamma explosionerna i universum, nämligen de s.k. supernovorna. Genom att studera dessa processers avtryck, kan vi fördjupa vår kunskap om, t.ex

Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) are widely used information processing algorithms based roughly on biological neural networks. These networks can be trained to find complex patterns in datasets and to produce certain output signals given a set of input signals. A key element of ANNs are their so-called activation functions, which control the signal strengths between the artificial neurons in a n
Den klimatpåverkan, resursförbrukning och avfallsgenerering som byggbranschen står för idag är omfattande, till exempel står sektorn för 25–35 % av Europas avfall. Det råder en situation där resurseffektiviteten är låg och värdet av de råvaror som används inte tillvaratas. Förbrukningen av naturresurser är stor och möjligheterna att begränsa detta genom återbruk, där både resurser och inbyggd enerThe building industry is responsible for a substantial climate impact, resource consumption and waste generation. As an example, the sector produces 25-35 % of all the waste in Europe. Currently, the resource value is not captured as the resource efficiency is low. The consumption of natural resources is extensive and the opportunity to limit this through reuse, where both resources and the embodi
Chocaya Basin ligger i den nordvästra delen av dalen Cochabamba i Bolivia, där ett halvtorrt klimat råder. Den ökande befolkningen är beroende av lokala akviferer för dricksvatten och jordbruk, där brunnar används för att utvinna vattnet. Låg nederbörd, främst under torrperioden, och uppförandet av nya hus eller fabriksbyggnader, påverkar infiltrationen av vattnet i jorden och därmed akviferernas The Chocaya Basin is situated in the north-western part of the Valley of Cochabamba, Bolivia, where a semi-arid climate prevails. The increasing population is dependent on local aquifers for drinking water and irrigation. Wells are used to extract water. Scarce amount of rainfall, mainly during the dry season, and constructions of buildings, are reducing the infiltration of water in the soil and c
