The production of biobutanol is hindered by the product's toxicity to the bacteria, which limits the productivity of the process. In situ product recovery of butanol can improve the productivity by removing the source of inhibition. This paper reviews in situ product recovery techniques applied to the acetone butanol ethanol fermentation in a stirred tank reactor. Methods of in situ recovery inclu

When creating models of a system, there is always a tradeoff between the ease of modelling a part and the increased value it brings to the model. Learning a model using machine learning instead, we are able to capture all kinds of things we don't necessarily understand, but can need large amounts of data to learn even the things we find simple. Using universal differential equations we can combine

Plasmodium falciparum dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (PfDHODH) has been clinically validated as a target for antimalarial drug discovery, as a triazolopyrimidine class inhibitor (DSM265) is currently undergoing clinical development. Here, we have identified new hydroxyazole scaffold-based PfDHODH inhibitors belonging to two different chemical series. The first series was designed by a scaffold hoppi

The determination of the CP nature of the Higgs coupling to top quarks is addressed in this paper, using tt-h events produced in s=13 TeV proton-proton collisions at the LHC. Dileptonic final states are employed, with two oppositely charged leptons and four jets, corresponding to the decays t→bW+→b+ν, t-→b-W-→b--ν-, and h→bb-. Pure scalar (h=H), pure pseudoscalar (h=A), and CP-violating Higgs boso

One of the aims of outdoor lighting in public spaces, such as pathways and subsidiary roads, is to help pedestrians to evaluate the intentions of other people. This paper discusses how a pedestrians' appraisal of another persons' intentions in artificially lit outdoor environments can be studied. We review the visual cues that might be used, and the experimental design with which effects of change

This article examines the relationship between theories of the ‘new’ public diplomacy and recent attemptsby foreign ministries in the United Kingdom, United States and Sweden to develop public diplomacystrategies for the early twenty-first century. It provides a summary of policy debates in each nation alongsideanalysis of the evaluation methods that have been designed to support them. The article

This article focuses on the use of the Western messianic mythéme, which has increased during the last decades.In popular culture, Christ figures and Antichrist figures are frequently engaged in dire battles which can only end in the Christ figure's destruction of his opponent. Although this can be seen as a sacralization of popular culture, one should be careful not to confuse the use of religious

Cloud computing has become one of the fastest growing segments of the IT industry. In the wake of this, cloud based Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems have emerged as an alternative to traditional ERPs These systems require low upfront investments and can rapidly be deployed, as they are provided over the cloud. In this study we seek to unravel cloud ERP adoption by identifying and classif

It is well known that during the suckling period pancreatic secretion is low. The aim of the study was to investigate the effects of dietary supplementation with pancreatic-like enzymes of microbial origin (PLEM) and SiO2, as an antibacterial factor, on the performance of piglets fed creep feed during weaning and thereafter. The experiment was performed on piglets from 30 litters. The piglets were

WNT5A is a secreted, noncanonical WNT signaling protein that has been reported to promote progression of several types of cancer, including oral squamous cell carcinoma. Many WNT5A antibodies are available commercially for immunohistochemistry (IHC) and western blot analysis. Validation of the primary antibodies, however, is often neglected. We characterized antibodies for detecting WNT5A by IHC a

In recent times there have been a growing public discussion in Sweden regarding targeted contributions from the state to the schools. The principals from municipalities all over the country have been letting their voices be heard that they are not pleased with how the current system is set up. An overwhelming administrative work and endless terms attributed to these contributions are just some of

Maskinindustrin producerar ständigt stora mängder data som ofta förblir outnyttjad. Data som hade kunnat användas för att förbättra underhållsrutiner och därmed minska frekvensen för maskinfel och öka produktionskvaliteten. Underhåll idag kan delas upp i två delar, åtgärdande underhåll och förebyggande underhåll. Åtgärdande underhåll utförs när en maskin har gått sönder. Förebyggande underhåll utfThis thesis explores Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) for predictive time series classification for Predictive Maintenance (PdM). Time slicing and time shifting are methods used, to enable the models to find features over time, and to predict into the future, respectively. Architectures of increasing complexity are explored for Feed Forward Neural Networks (FFNNs), Convolutional Neural Networks (

This master's thesis explores how organisations manage and measure performance through performance measurement systems. Though as performance management systems often relies on ad-hoc, informal methods, leading to inconsistencies and misalignment with organizational objectives. This study advocates for a systematic approach to performance management system implementation, aligning it with orga
