Multiscale modeling of polycrystalline materials: A boundary element approach to material degradation and fracture
2015
Abstract In this work, a two-scale approach to degradation and failure in polycrystalline materials is proposed. The formulation involves the engineering component level (macro-scale) and the material grain level (micro-scale). The macro-continuum is modeled using a three-dimensional boundary element formulation in which the presence of damage is formulated through an initial stress approach to account for the local softening in the neighborhood of points experiencing degradation at the micro-scale. The microscopic degradation is explicitly modeled by associating Representative Volume Elements (RVEs) to relevant points of the macro continuum, for representing the polycrystalline microstruct…
Frequency distribution of journalistic attention for scientific studies and scientific sources: An input-output analysis.
2020
Based on the decision-theoretical conditions underlying the selection of events for news coverage in science journalism, this article uses a novel input-output analysis to investigate which of the more than eight million scientific study results published between August 2014 and July 2018 have been selected by global journalism to a relevant degree. We are interested in two different structures in the media coverage of scientific results. Firstly, the structure of sources that journalists use, i.e. scientific journals, and secondly, the congruence of the journalistic selection of single results. Previous research suggests that the selection of sources and results follows a certain heavy-tai…
ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis of Sesquiterpenes via Silicon-Guided Rearrangement of Epoxydecalins
2009
A survey of the rearrangement of methyldecalins via C-5 carbocation intermediates, with special attention to the silicon-guided rearrangement of epoxydecalins is provided. A TMS group properly posi...
ChemInform Abstract: New Route to Herbertanes via a Suzuki Cross-Coupling Reaction: Synthesis of Herbertenediol.
2010
Abstract The synthesis of herbertenediol, a relevant member of the herbertane-type sesquiterpene family, is described. The synthesis is based on a new general approach to this group of sesquiterpenes where the herbertane skeleton is constructed using a Suzuki cross-coupling reaction and a [2,3]-sigmatropic Still–Wittig rearrangement as key synthetic steps.
ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis of Two Natural 8-Oxo-β-cyperone Derivatives from (-)- Santonin.
2010
Abstract This paper reports on the chemical transformations of (−)-santonin into (+)-8-oxo-β-cyperone and (+)-12-hydroxy-8-oxo-β-cyperone involving 8-oxo group introduction and elaboration of the side chain.

4-Chloro-N-methyl-N-nitroaniline
1998
The molecular structure of (p-ClC 6 H 4 )(CH 3 )NNO 2 (or C 7 H 7 ClN 2 O 2 ) contains a planar NNO 2 nitroamino group which is twisted about the N-C phenyl bond by ca 68° from the plane of the aromatic ring. The structural data are in agreement with the spectral results and indicate that there is no conjugation between the aromatic sextet and the nitroamino group. There are no specific intermolecular interactions.
ChemInform Abstract: Aldol Reactions with Erythrulose Derivatives: Stereoselective Synthesis of Differentially Protected syn-α,β-Dihydroxy Esters.
2010
Boron enolates of 1-O-silylated erythrulose 3,4-acetonides prepared with Brown's chloro-dicyclohexylborane/tertiary amine system have been shown to react with achiral aldehydes in a highly stereoselective way to yield a 1,2-syn/1,3-syn stereoisomer. Through oxidative cleavage of the aldol adducts with periodic acid hydrate, enantiopure syn-α,β-dihydroxy esters with either hydroxyl group differently protected have been prepared. These erythrulose derivatives therefore behave as a chiral hydroxy acetate (glycolate) enolate equivalent.

Sähköä ja alkemiaa: Tekoälydiskurssit Yleisradion verkkoartikkeleissa
2021
Tässä artikkelissa tarkastelemme sitä, millaisena ja miten tekoäly esitetään suomalaisessa julkisessa keskustelussa, ja ketkä tekoälystä suurelle yleisölle kertovat. Aineistona olemme käyttäneet Yleisradion verkkosivujen tekoälyä käsitteleviä artikkeleja. Tulosten perusteella tekoälystä pääsevät kertomaan useimmin talouden ja teollisuuden aloilla työskentelevät miehet. Aineistossa esiintyneet tekoälytulevaisuuskuvaukset pitäytyvät pitkälti nykyisen länsikeskeisen kapitalistisen maailmankuvan sisällä. Toisin sanoen, ne eivät haastaneet tai ylittäneet vallitsevaa status quoa, vaan näkivät tulevaisuuden pikemminkin lineaarisena kehityksenä nykytilasta. Aiemman tutkimuksen perusteella yleinen k…
