Previous collaboration research shows that problems and conflicts sometimes arise as a part of collaboration. Researchers have highlighted the importance of narratives, but have not focused on narratives about successful cooperation. This article tries to fill this gap by analyzing stories of successful cooperation, even if it unfolds during shorter interaction sequences. The aim is to analyze how
The English philosopher Richard M. Hare - one of the leading moral philosophers of the twentieth century - develops in his most recent major work an ingenious theory of moral reasoning. He maintains that there are rules of fundamental moral thinking which are determined by the concepts involved in moral thinking. Moreover, he argues that the evaluative conclusions reached by taking facts into acco
In old mnemonic systems, like the Memory Palaces (Ricci) and the Memory Circles (Llull), the general purpose is to organize and preserve the images of memory over time. However, in contemporary discussions of memory taking place within the field of trauma studies (Leys, Laub, Feldman, Caruth, van der Kolk), the focus is on the forgotten, and on understanding why we do not remember traumatic events
This study examines the management of used mobile phones in the United Kingdom between 2005 and 2008. It shows that the replacement cycle for mobile phones got shorter during the period due to heavy handset subsidies given by mobile network operators. The planned obsolescence presented a business opportunity for the exports of used phones to developing countries. However, the collection for re-use
Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are promising as energy producing device, which at this stage of its development will require extensive analysis and benefit from numerical modeling at different time-and length scales. In this study, two models based on finite element method (FEM) and Lattice Boltzmann model (LBM), respectively, are evaluated and compared for an anode-supported SOFC. First, a 3D mod
When adopting the view of the multinational corporation (MNC) as a transnational corporation, subsidiaries become strategic partners. It is important to recognize that within the MNC knowledge may originate also from subsidiaries and thus flow in different directions. The aim of the article is to understand the role of multiple knowledge flows when international retail firms enter new markets. A q
Under en rad år har kulturnämnden satsat betydande resurser på det kulturpedagogiska fältet, med särskild inriktning barn och unga. I september 2008 beslöt kulturnämnden om andra fördelningsprinciper. Kulturpedagogiska medel som tidigare knutits till tjänster blev särskilda uppdragsöverens-kommelser som skulle styra verksamheten. Bidraget reducerades till 75 % av tidigare nivåer, resterande belopp
In connection with the international housing exhibition Bo01 in Malmo, Sweden in 2001, several residential units were built. To get building permission, all developers had to present calculations proving that their buildings would use in total less than 105 kWh/(m(2.)year) bought energy. Measurements show that none of the buildings fulfilled the demand concerning energy use. According to the calcu
Popular Abstract in Swedish Hur påverkas djurplanktonsamhällen av klimatförändringar och vilken betydelse har vilostadier? Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning av “Ecology of zooplankton communities: climate, dormancy and benthic-pelagic coupling”, doktorsavhandling i Limnologi vid Ekologiska institutionen, Lunds Universitet, 2003. Djurplankton är sjöars motsvarighet till betande kossor ochThis thesis describes how influences, such as top down and bottom up forces, shape zooplankton communities in shallow lakes. I have also extended the traditional food-web theory by investigating the effects of climate on total biomass, taxonomic composition, and temporal properties of zooplankton communities. A field experiment showed that the total biomass of both phytoplankton and zooplankton in
Research in theoretical chemistry is aimed at finding computational algorithms that produce as accurate results as possible, for as large molecules as possible, with a minimum of computational effort and to apply these methods to molecular systems of chemical interest. The most accurate theoretical methods, often referred to as ab initio methods, are derived from the fundamental laws of physics an
