VIRTUAL PRESSURE SENSOR BASED ON ION CURRENT MEASUREMENTS USING ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS

In-cylinder pressure measurements serve as the gold standard for combustion diagnostics in Internal Combustion Engines. However, the associated costs render it unfeasible to equip engines with in-cylinder pressure sensors. For spark-ignited engines, using the more affordable in-cylinder ion current measurements as an alternative to the traditional pressure sensors has shown promising results for c

Baler - Machine Learning Based Compression of Scientific Data

A common and growing issue in scientific research and industry is that of storing and sharing ever-increasing datasets. In this paper we document the development and applications of Baler - a Machine Learning based tool for tailored compression of data across multiple disciplines.

The Five Senses in Classical Science and Ethics

Sight, hearing, smell, taste and touch: that the senses should be enumerated in this way is not self-evident. The number and order of the senses are fixed by custom and tradition, not by nature. The regular order being subject to occasional change proves its arbitrariness. Therefore, we can describe the enumeration of the five senses as an artificial series of natural elements.

MNS and Duffy Blood Group Systems

The MNS blood group system antigens (M, N, S, s, U, and other high- and low-frequency antigens) are carried on glycophorins A and B, or hybrid proteins thereof. Antibodies to these antigens can be clinically significant, especially anti-S, anti-s, and anti-U. The Duffy blood group system antigens (Fya, Fyb, Fy3) are carried on the atypical chemokine receptor 1 (ACKR1). Antibodies to the Duffy anti

Bunkers Revisited : Co-producing Memory, Meaning and Materiality in Danish Cold War Museums

The Cold War shaped the Danish landscape and cityscape profoundly. Numerous bunkers, military and civilian remain today as testimonies of a time where fear of a nuclear Third World War was imminent. This chapter delves into “the bunker” as materiality and myth, drawing inspiration from bunker studies from a broad range of fields including history, geography and architecture. Subsequently, this cha

Mortality among individuals with substance use disorder—does violent criminal behavior have an impact?

Introduction: Understanding violent criminality and its impact on health and eventually the risk of premature mortality is important for efficient future interventions. This study aimed to explore the effect violent criminality had on premature mortality (i.e., death before the age of 65) among individuals with substance use disorders (SUDs). Methods: The cohort was created by identifying all Swed

The LISA project : opportunities and challenges of recycling automotive heat exchangers

A modern vehicle typically has up to ten different heat exchangers, ensuring prolonged technology life, improved performance, and passenger comfort. Heat exchangers for automotive applications are made of multilayer-clad brazed aluminium. They are mature products, having been used in passenger and commercial internal combustion engine vehicles for decades, and their use will continue in electrifie

Gepants

Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) was suggested to play an important role in primary headaches as far back as 1985 and has been confirmed as playing a significant role in migraine pathophysiology. CGRP receptor antagonists are becoming more and more important for treatment of acute migraine attacks and for prophylaxis of episodic and chronic migraine. The development of drugs that bind CGRP o
