Many studies focusing on design activities use the interview technique as part of their investigation. Nevertheless, methodological discussions about the interview setting as the locus of a social interaction between the interviewer and the respondent and its implications for the interpretation of the data obtained are rarely found in publications within our design community. Part I of this public

Popular Abstract in English The ability to make aromatic cleft compounds is of importance in the field of molecular recognition where many interactions of the guest with the receptor are based on interactions involving aromatic receptor moieties leading to π-π and cation-π interactions, as well as hydrophobic interactions commonly seen. One attractive framework for aromatic cleft compounds is TrögThe centenarian Tröger’s base (TB) was envisaged as scaffold for the construction of tubular-shaped cleft molecules due to its the remarkable structural properties. This endeavor started with the synthesis of the three possible diastereomers of a linear symmetrically fused tris-TB analogue, the anti-anti, the syn-syn, and the syn-anti. All three diastereomers showed unprecedented stability to acid

It is generally agreed that children are able to acquire two languages to which they are exposed from birth as two L1s. Little attention has been drawn to cases when one language develops slower and is weaker in different aspects. A question under debate is whether the weaker language develops as an L2 rather than as an L1. The goal of this paper is to contribute to the understanding of the weaker

This thesis deals with two main areas in the field of stochastic inventory theory; ateral transshipments and perishable items. In the first part of this thesis we give an introduction to the field of inventory theory, and discuss some previous literature connected to the research presented in this thesis. In the second part, the original research which defines this thesis is presented in the form

An invertebrate nerve cell preparation, the lobster stretch receptor neuron, was investigated with respect to maintenance of its resting voltage, intracellular ion concentrations and excitability using voltage clamp technique and ion-selective microelectrodes. It was found that the resting voltage (-65 mV) of microelectrode impaled cells is caused by (a) a homogenous population of K+ channels whic

This chapter reflects on how experiences from aural-based musical practice, especially 'chordal thinking', may influence and facilitate pianists' interpretation of musical scores.

The acoustic field generated by flow unsteadiness in a model annular gas turbine (GT) combustion chamber is determined using a hybrid approach. In the flow solver the semi-compressible Navier-Stokes equations are resolved using LES as turbulence model. The acoustic solver is based on an inhomogeneous wave equation, where the instantaneous source terms are computed from the LES data in each time-in
