Ribbed channel flows are encountered in numerous engineering applications to promote turbulence and enhance heat transfer in various cooling passages, e.g., in turbine blades and at combustor walls. Numerical simulations have become an increasingly useful tool for providing insights into complex turbulence and flow separation, which are critical to the design and optimization of such channels. In

To run a successful business, you need to engage and inspire your employees. To do that, first clarify the promises and values that make up your organization’s identity core – then align the core with every aspect of the business. Drawing on his influential Harvard Business Review article, Mats Urde shows how to tackle this critically important task and forge a corporate brand identity that will b

On starting up a social venture to increase the nutritional intake of slum children in Chennai, India.

Syfte och forskningsfrågor: Studiens syfte är att undersöka självutcheckningskassornas roll i kunders värdeskapandeprocesser och skapa djupare förståelse kring självserviceteknologiers inverkan på kunders värdeskapande och köpupplevelser. Studien undersöker specifikt självutcheckningskassor i klädbutiker, en kontext som är relativt outforskad, där det även rapporterats om flera utmaningar för kund

This thesis examines the practices and challenges of a sole management of a cultural enterprise by studying the case of Cadence Gallery and its founder Elsa, a cultural entrepreneur who solely established and manages a non-profit art gallery in Sweden. The qualitative research is based on semi-structured interviews with the entrepreneur and other individuals involved in the gallery's operation

The hotel industry's growth raises concerns about its societal and environmental impacts, prompting hotels to engage in various practices for environmental preservation, fair HR management, and community well-being among others. Previously reporting on such practices in their sustainability reports, hotel chains now feel a stronger obligation to adhere to Environmental, Social, and Governance

In the 21 century many post industrial cities have converted their former areas into cultural areas with entertainment areas, cultural schools and museums. The city of Malmö has transformed itself into a city of culture and it uses its place brand to compete for tourists, inhabitants, businesses and labor with other cities. The purpose with this paper is to find out how culture is included in the

The gut and oral microbiome is altered in people living with HIV (PLWH). While antiretroviral treatment (ART) is pivotal in restoring immune function in PLWH, several studies have identified an association between specific antiretrovirals, particularly integrase inhibitors (INSTI), and weight gain. In our study, we explored the differences in the oral and gut microbiota of PLWH under different ART

On the tensions faced by a social venture due to its rapid growth

Consumers’ ethical efforts are capped by unethical market forces. A longitudinal study of anti-consumers shows that when systemic support was removed, consumers previously fully committed to ethical lifestyles, exhibited symptoms of an ethical consumption gap, suggesting the problem lies not with the individual (gap) but with the context (cap).

Recent development of powder-bed additive manufacturing promises to enable the production of architectural structures that combine high resolution and articulation with economies of scale. These capabilities can potentially be used for functionally graded metamaterials as part of the building envelope and structure, paving the way for new functionalities and performances. However, designing such m

Machine learning techniques often lack formal correctness guarantees, evidenced by the widespread adversarial examples that plague most deep-learning applications. This lack of formal guarantees resulted in several research efforts that aim at verifying Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), with a particular focus on safety-critical applications. However, formal verification techniques still face major sca

BACKGROUND AIMS: The EAT-Lancet Commission devised a globally sustainable dietary pattern to jointly promote human health and sustainability. However, the extent to which this diet supports metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has not yet been assessed. This study aimed to investigate the association between the EAT-Lancet diet and risk of MASLD and its severity.APPROAC

Despite the fact that longevity in people with intellectual disability has increased at least as much as in the general population, there is a dearth of interventions related to ageing for these older people. Therefore, this study investigated educators' implementation strategies in a new tailor-designed educational intervention with the goal of supporting the process of ageing for people with mil

BACKGROUND: Cell blocks (CBs) are widely used for biomarker analyses such as immunostaining. Although immunohistochemistry on formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tissues is standardized, there are multiple preparation methods and fixatives for cytology. Our objective was to investigate the effect of different common fixatives on the immunoreactivity of pleural effusion CBs with metastatic lung adenoc

Using wreath products, we construct a finitely generated pro-p group G with infinite normal Hausdorff spectrum here hdim p G : (X|X ⊂ G) [0,1]denotes the Hausdorff dimension function associated to the p-power series p:Gpi, i ε N0 More precisely, we show that hspec p (G)=[0,1/3] ∪ (1) contains an infinite interval; this settles a question of Shalev. Furthermore, we prove that the normal Hausdorff s

Titanium alloys are known for being difficult to machine. Within the groups of Ti alloys, the machinability is reduced when going from the α-alloys, to α + β, and finally to near-β or β-alloys. Uncoated cemented carbide is traditionally used for machining these alloys and finding a suitable coating to improve the performance is a challenge due to the high strength of Ti alloys and the high chemica
