ESS Personnel Safety Systems Test Stand
Providing and assuring safe conditions for personnel is a key parameter required to operate the European Spallation Source (ESS). The Personnel Safety System (PSS) primarily prevent workers from the facility's ionising radiation hazards, but also identify as well as mitigate against all other hazards such as high voltage and oxygen depletion. The PSS test stand is being developed in the ESS Protec
Atherogenesis and plaque rupture, surface/interface-related phenomena
In atherogenesis, free oxygen radicals cause a lipid peroxidation of apoB100-containing lipoproteins in the blood, at the blood–endothelium-interface and in the subendothelial space. These lipoproteins easily aggregate, bind to their receptor heparan sulfate proteoglycan and calcify to arteriosclerotic nanoplaques (ternary complexes). Nanoplaque formation was measured by ellipsometry, both in vitr
Optimal vs satisfactory transparency : The impact of global macroeconomic fluctuations on corporate competitiveness
Being able to separate temporary global macroeconomic influences – caused by fluctuations in exchange rates, interest rates and inflation – from intrinsic performance – related to a superior product, production process or management – is crucial to assessing the development of a firm's competiveness. Against that background, this paper analyzes institutions’ role in making firms supply outside sha
Integrating the methods of project-based learning and role-playing to promote deep approach of learning : Programming languages
In recent years, there has been an increasing amount of literature on critical thinking and deep learning. Conversely, the traditional pedagogical methods of teaching lack the potentiality to make deep learning especially for the practice-oriented courses such as programming languages. Thus, this study is designed based on the Project-Based Learning (PBL) and Role-Playing (RP) which are integrated
Conclusions
There is a well-known story in climate change circles about the campaign run by opponents of action on climate change in the United States in the run-up to the Kyoto Protocol in 1997. A prominent ad in the campaign featured a stereotypical soccer mom, who declared: “The government wants to take away my SUV” (Schneider 2002). The ad is usually read in terms of the fossil fuel corporations’ strategy
On Event-Based Sampling for LQG-Optimal Control
We consider the problem of finding an event-based sampling scheme that optimizes the trade-off between average sampling rate and control performance in a linear-quadratic-Gaussian (LQG) control problem setting with output feedback. Our analysis is based on a recently presented sampled-data controller structure, which remains LQG-optimal for any choice of sampling scheme. We show that optimization
Drugs, distrust and dialogue : - a focus group study with Swedish GPs on discharge summary use in primary care
BACKGROUND: Discharge summary with medication report effectively counteracts drug-related problems due to insufficient information transfer in care transitions. The benefits of the discharge summary may be lost if it is not adequately used, and factors affecting optimal use by the GP are of interest. Since the views of Swedish GPs are unexplored, this study aimed to explore and understand GPs expe

A new early Holocene shoreline displacement record for Blekinge, southern Sweden, and implications for underwater archaeology
We present evidence of a submerged early Holocene landscape off the Blekinge coastline in the Baltic Sea, dating to the Yoldia Sea and Initial Littorina Sea Stages when the water level was lower than at present. 14C dated wood remains obtained by surveillance diving and new archaeological findings in combination with bathymetric analyses and interpolations between other sites across the Baltic Sea

Republika Srpska : Imaginary, performance and spatialization
Conceptually, this paper is about the becoming of states and how such states are a socially constructed spaces, imagined and performed by those who perceive themselves as belonging to that state. It asks through what imaginaries and performative practices does a state come into being? More specifically, the paper investigates how the state is imagined and performed in times of war and peace hoping
Access to the Bis-benzene Cobalt(I) Sandwich Cation and its Derivatives : Synthons for a “Naked” Cobalt(I) Source?
The synthesis and structural characterization of the hitherto unknown parent Co(bz)2 + (bz=benzene) complex and several of its derivatives are described. Their synthesis starts either from a CoCO5 + salt, or directly from Co2(CO)8 and a Ag+ salt. Stability and solubility of these complexes was achieved by using the weakly coordinating anions (WCAs) [Al(ORF)4]− and [F{Al(ORF)3}2]− {RF=C(CF3)3} and
The role of parent and offspring sex on risk for externalizing psychopathology in offspring with parental alcohol use disorder : a national Swedish study
Purpose: The substantial literature showing that offspring of parents with alcohol use disorder (AUD) is at increased risk for externalizing psychopathology rarely examines the differential effects of parental and offspring sex. This literature also has other important limitations, such as modest sample sizes and use of unrepresentative samples. Using a large, nationwide Swedish sample, we aim to
Poly(arylene alkylene)s with pendant N-spirocyclic quaternary ammonium cations for anion exchange membranes
Aromatic polymers functionalised with cycloaliphatic quaternary ammonium (QA) cations are currently emerging as base stable anion exchange membranes (AEMs) for use in alkaline fuel cells and water electrolyzers. In the present work we have first prepared poly(biphenyl piperidine)s in superacid-mediated polycondensations, and then introduced different N-spirocyclic QA cations via cyclo-quaternisati
Escalation of commitment as an antecedent to noncompliance with information security policy
Purpose: This study aims to identify antecedents to noncompliance behavior influenced by decision contexts where investments in time, effort and resources are devoted to a task – referred to as a task unlikely to be completed without violating the organization’s information security policy (ISP). Design/methodology/approach: An empirical test of the suggested relationships in the proposed model wa

Urban Living Labs : Catalysing Low Carbon and Sustainable Cities in Europe?
Living labs for sustainability, low carbon and smart cities that have emerged in Europe have different goals and ways of working, they are initiated by various actors, and they form different types of partnerships. There is clearly no uniform definition of living labs. Some scholars and organisations define them as partnerships between sectors (often between public, private and people) where unive
