Power electronic converters are pivotal while designing any charging scheme, regardless of the battery capacity and application. Nowadays, Power Factor Correction (PFC) converters have become popular for various battery charging systems due to their simple configurations. Single-Ended Primary-Inductor Converter (SEPIC) and Cuk PFC converters are preferred over buck-boost converters in this regard

I den här rapporten ges en sammanfattning av en del av resultaten och metoderna från projektet Klimatanpassning av väg och järnväg i strandnära områden. Projektet har finansierats av Trafikverket och syftar till att studera klimatrisker för kustnära vägar med avseende på översvämnings- och erosionsprocesser, samt hur den riskutsatta infrastrukturen kan skyddas genom hållbara och naturanpassade met

In this paper we explore cyber security practices in Swedish manufacturing firms. Manufacturing is being trans- formed by new technologies under the label of smart industry or industry 4.0. Most of these technologies are either digital themselves or depend on digital connectivity. Their use is made possible by electronic sensors, actuators, and other devices as well as by data-driven analysis. Thi

Forestation is expected to play an significant role as a terrestrial carbon dioxide removal technology in low-emission scenarios by storing carbon in the biosphere, thereby changing the physical properties of the land surface. To represent land use change, including afforestation and reforestation (AR), Earth system models (ESM) that contribute to the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6

We report on a twisted aromatic polymer,the first xanthene-based example bearing protonated imidazole groups. Its specialarchitecture enables superior ion selectivity, conductivity, and chemicalstability, providing excellent performance in both all-vanadium and iron-vanadiumredox flow batteries.

Contractile injection systems (CISs) are phage-tail-like nanosyringes that mediate bacterial interactions by puncturing target cell membranes. Within these systems, Photorhabdus Virulence Cassettes (PVCs) can translocate toxins across eukaryotic target cell membranes. The structure of a PVC has been described at atomic level and engineered to deliver diverse protein cargoes into non-natively-targe

The present study offers a first comprehensive, quantifiable overview of the geographical extent and scale of the cuneiform corpus. Though one of the oldest and longest-lived scripts in history, the sheer size of this corpus, being among the largest discrete bodies of written source material from the pre-modern world, is seldom properly appreciated. We review and evaluate past quantitative assessm

To Alan Walmsley, at sixty-fiveJarash (also Jerash, Greek Gerasa) ranks among the principal urban centres of Late Antique and Early Islamic Jordan. Despite being one of the most intensively investigated urban sites within the region, the history of Jarash during the Islamic ages, in particular after the massive earthquake of 749, remains a topic of profound disagreement. Drawing on previously unpu

Digitaliseringen och utvecklingen av en ny generation artificiell intelligens (AI) medför betydande förändring i ekonomi och samhälle. Men hur den förändringen ser ut beror inte bara på den nya tekniken, utan också på hur den till slut används. Tekniska framsteg har genom historien spelat en avgörande roll för långsiktig tillväxt och välståndsökningar, men produktivitetsökningar kommer inte gratis

The works, which consist of wooden planks mounted on steel supports, at first look deceptively like found objects, like standard industrial pallets. Upon closer study they are obviously handcrafted, not manufactured. Fredrik Værslev’s Garden Paintings first appeared in 2011. The planks themselves may be industrially made, but they are mounted manually and subjected to a variety of painterly techni

The physics of the geomagnetic field is introduced, plausible mechanisms of magnetoreception are mentioned and observations and findings concerning magnetic field orientation in different organisms are presented. -from English summary

The return of monochrome painting - why it’s back, and where to see it in Berlin.The exhibition consists of ten more or less monochromatic paintings from the past four decades, including works by John M Armleder, Tauba Auerbach, Gardar Eide Einarsson, Matias Faldbakken, Isa Genzken, Allison Katz, Michael Krebber, Olivier Mosset, Charlotte Posenenske and Josh Smith. Organized and curated by Fredrik

While digitalisation is oftentimes thought of as a global megatrend and something that transcends national borders and geographical distances, it is at the same time a very tangible process exhibiting considerable regional and sectoral variation. Against this backdrop, Digital Innovation Hubs (DIHs) (a policy initiative in the context of the Digitising European Industry (DEI) strategy of the EU) c

Anthropogenic activities threaten many wildlife populations by increasing mortality rates, making it crucial to identify the locations and causes of mortality to inform conservation actions. Technological advancements, such as GPS satellite tracking, enable precise recording of wildlife movements. High-resolution data from such devices can facilitate rapid carcass recovery and provide insights int

For all its physical modesty, a small administrative cuneiform tablet currently in the collections of the West Point Museum, part of the U.S. Army Center of Military History and located at the United States Military Academy at West Point, NY, has become quite the celebrity in numerous online fora and blog posts, being presented as evidence of cultural relations between the Old World and the New pr
