We present an implementation of the nuclear spin–rotation (SR) constants based on the relativistic four-component Dirac–Coulomb Hamiltonian. This formalism has been implemented in the framework of the Hartree–Fock and Kohn–Sham theory, allowing assessment of both pure and hybrid exchange–correlation functionals. In the density-functional theory (DFT) implementation of the response equations, a ...

Dette er en masteroppgave i matematikkdidaktikk som fremstiller elever i arbeid med geometriske mønster. På bakgrunn av stor interesse i fagområdet algebra og elevers forståelse for det matematiske symbolspråket vil jeg se på problemstillingen: Hvordan kan arbeid med geometriske mønster bidra til elevenes forståelse av det matematiske symbolspråket? Hensikten med studien er å undersøke hvordan ...

Carbonates represent major hydrocarbon reservoirs, but often exhibit highly heterogeneous reservoir properties. Outcrop analogues provide important insights into how parameters such as porosity, permeability and natural fractures vary. As such, outcrops can bridge the scale gap between spatially extensive but poor-resolution seismic data and 1D high-resolution well data. However, traditional geological ...

This thesis describes a study that was carried out in the Tertiary fold-and-thrust belt of Svalbard, in the mountain range of Mediumfjellet summer 2007 and 2008. The focuses were on: i) further describing the larger structures of the Mediumfjellet, ii) analyze the fracture distribution in the limestone beds associated with the major structures in the area. Available data sets are based on photo ...

A frame approach to determining the most general solution admitting a desired symmetry group has previously been examined in Riemannian and teleparallel geometries with some success. In teleparallel geometries, one must determine the general form of the frame and spin connection to generate a general solution admitting the desired symmetry group. Current approaches often rely on the use of the ...

As technology advances, researchers in the natural sciences collect ever-increasing amounts of data. While computer science research often focuses on effective ways to perform computations on large data sets, the visualization of large data sets can be just as important for achieving new insights. Just as cluster computing enables scalable computation on large data sets, so can cluster-based display ...

A number of important questions concern processes at the margins of ice sheets where multiple components of the Earth system, most crucially ice sheets and oceans, interact. Such processes include thermodynamic interaction at the ice–ocean interface, the impact of meltwater on ice shelf cavity circulation, the impact of basal melting of ice shelves on grounded ice dynamics and ocean controls on ...

Leading to the enhancement of smart grid implementation, the peer-to-peer (P2P) energy transaction concept has grown dramatically in recent years allowing the end-users to successfully exchange their excess generation and demand in a more profitable way. This paper presents local energy market (LEM) architecture with various market strategies for P2P energy trading among a set of end-users ...

Typical applications of integrated photonics in the mid-infrared (MIR) are different from near-infrared (telecom) range and, in many instances, they involve chemical sensing through MIR spectroscopy. Such applications necessitate tailored designs of optical waveguides. Both cross-sectional designs and processing methods of MIR waveguides have been a subject of extensive research, where material ...
