Study of the seasonal ozone variations at European high latitudes
(2011)The geographic area at high latitudes beyond the polar circle is characterized with long darkness during the winter (polar night) and with a long summertime insolation (polar day). Consequentially, the polar vortex is ... -
Study of thermal instability of HMX crystalline polymorphs with and without molecular vacancies using reactive force field molecular dynamics
(2016)The sensitivity of energetic materials can be identified by heat, friction, impact, shock, electrostatic charge, etc. A complexity of various factors may influence the sensitivity and among them are the crystal structure ... -
Studying the time trend of Methicillinresistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) in Norway by use of non-stationary γ-Poisson distributions
(2015)Objectives Study the time development of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) and forecast future behaviour. The major question: Is the number of MRSA isolates in Norway increasing and will it continue to ... -
The subway microbiome: Seasonal dynamics and direct comparison of air and surface bacterial communities
(2019-12-19)Background Mass transit environments, such as subways, are uniquely important for transmission of microbes among humans and built environments, and for their ability to spread pathogens and impact large numbers of people. ... -
Successful IT projects – A multiple case study of benefits management practices
(2023-03-22)Delivering project benefits for users and society is a key aspect of success in public IT projects. The traditional success measures, such as time and cost, only tell parts of the story. Furthermore, one of the main ... -
Sum-frequency generation of high-energy and hig-beam-quality ultraviolet pulses
(2011)Sum-frequency generation of UV pulses exceeding 25 mJ and with beam quality has been demonstrated by mixing the third harmonic pulses of a flash lamp pumped 1.06 μm Nd:YAG laser with 1.7 μm pulses from an optical parametric ... -
Superb Winter fur insulation in small Siberian musk deer (Moschus moschiferus)
(2015)We compared the morphology and thermal characteristics of winter pelage from two Siberian musk deer Moschus moschiferus (aged 5 and 41 mo.; 5.7 and 9.5 kg) and two Eurasian reindeer Rangifer tarandus tarandus (aged >48 ... -
Supporting artificial intelligence with artificial images
(2018)Infrared (IR) imagery is frequently used in security/surveillance and military image processing applications. In this article we will consider the problem of outlining military naval vessels in such images. Obtaining these ... -
Supralethal poisoning by any of the classical nerve agents is effectively counteracted by procyclidine regimens in rats
(2015)A treatment regimen consisting of HI-6, levetiracetam, and procyclidine (termed the triple regimen) has previously been shown to work as a universal therapy against soman poisoning in rats, since it has capacities to ... -
Surface treatment of alumina ceramic for improved adhesion to a glass fibre-reinforced polyester composite
(2015)The adhesion between an alumina ceramic and a glass fibre-reinforced polyester matrix composite has been investigated. The effect of various alumina surface treatments, including degreasing, etching, plasma, grit-blasting ... -
Surgical helmets can be converted into efficient disinfectable powered air-purifying respirators
(2021-12-25)Background Filtering facepiece respirators often fail to provide sufficient protection due to a poor fit. Powered air-purifying respirators (PAPRs) are not designed for healthcare personnel, and are challenging to disinfect. ... -
A survey of dioxin-like contaminants in fish from recreational fishing
(2015)The dioxin and dioxin-like compounds are regarded as one of the most toxic group of environmental contaminants. Food for the commercial market is regularly monitored for their dioxin levels and the concentration allowed ... -
Survey of Key Management in Ad Hoc Networks
(2006)The wireless and dynamic nature of mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) leaves them more vulnerable to security attacks than their wired counterparts. The nodes act both as routers and as communication end points. This makes ... -
A survey of the polar cap density based on Cluster EFW probe measurements: Solar wind and solar irradiation dependence
(2012)The plasma density above the Earth's polar caps provide crucial information about the state of the magnetosphere. This region of space is known for its tenuous plasma and extremely low plasma densities, thus making traditional ... -
Synthesis and characterization of Al@MOF materials
(2019)The potential impregnation of Al(0) nanoparticles in the pores of three different metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), MIL-53-Al, HKUST-1, and UiO-67, was investigated through the suspension of the MOFs in AlH3•NMe2Et (1), ... -
