In secondary-school English-as-a-foreign-language (EFL) classrooms worldwide, English tends to be used alongside the society or community majority language (Brevik & Rindal 2020; Tsagari & Diakou 2015; Üstünel 2016), and research reveals greater participation and positive attitudes among students when translanguaging is permitted (Ebe 2016; Kleyn 2016; Saxena 2009; Ollerhead 2019; Seltzer
The machining of Fiber Reinforced Polymers (FRP) is accompanied by specific defects such as delamination, uncut fibers, and others. Such defects are unique in their shape and size for different FRP types, used tools, and applied cutting conditions. Therefore, defect recognition and quantification remain a central challenge in the quality control of FRP components from an accuracy and time balance
The dynamic interaction between a non-viscid, compressible fluid and an elastic structure is studied. Finite element formulations, using the weighted residual method, are derived. Different primary variables in the fluid domain are used and different source functions are considered.When a potential field is used, the dynamic interaction between fluid and structure yields nonsymmetric matrices.

Europe is leading the world in cutting carbon emissions. By 2020, the European Union had reduced emissions by an estimated 34 percent compared to 1990 levels, which puts its promised 55 percent reduction by 2030 safely within reach. By comparison, the United States has managed only a 7 percent reduction over the same period.However, this European success story comes with a big asterisk. The EU has
The immune system is integral to cardiovascular health and disease. Targeting inflammation ameliorates adverse cardiovascular outcomes. Atherosclerosis, a major underlying cause of cardiovascular disease, is conceptualized as lipid-driven inflammation in which macrophages play a nonredundant role. However, evidence emerging so far from single-cell atlases suggests a dichotomy between lipid-associa
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disease. Most cases of AD are considered idiopathic and likely due to a combination of genetic, environmental, and lifestyle-related risk factors. Despite occurring decades before the typical age of an AD diagnosis, early-life stress (ELS) has been suggested to have long-lasting effects that may contribute to AD risk and pathogenesis. S
BACKGROUND: The EAT-Lancet Commission proposed a global reference diet with both human health benefits and environmental sustainability in 2019. However, evidence regarding the association of such a diet with the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF) is lacking. In addition, whether the genetic risk of AF can modify the effect of diet on AF remains unclear. This study aimed to assess the association of
I mötet med människor som avviker från normen sker något viktigt med oss. Det ärmycket tack vare »den Andre« de som inte är som vi som vi får reda på vilka vi egentligen är.I västerlandet har kristendomen varit norm i tusen år, och det var under kristendomenstidiga historia som många av vår kulturs traditionella fiendebilder föddes. De har spelat en viktig roll för framväxten av vårt moderna samhä
While most greenhouse gases are not toxic and no pollutants, their increasing concentration in the atmosphere is enhancing the greenhouse effect and causing climate change. Climate change however is a massive threat to all global life-sustaining systems, and it will among other highly damaging consequences probably also create significant health problems. This chapter first explains the natural sc
