A model for interaction between acoustic and elec- tromagnetic waves based on photoelasticity is presented. A radar equation based on physical, geometric and system parameters is shown, as well as a condition for maximizing interaction (equivalent to the Bragg condition in acousto-optics). The photoelastic model is used to implement a multiphysics simulation of the problem. The Bragg condition is

This article aims to enable a conversation between cosmopolitan thought, with focus on individual ethical experiences and reflections, and research on embodied military experiences. While we derive our ethical reasoning from cosmopolitanism, we concede that it lacks sensitivity to individuals’ other-regarding reflections and acts. Moreover, it does not sufficiently problematize the ways in which c

The aim of this study was to investigate how different types of motivation to defend victims of bullying would be associated with various bystander behaviors in cyberbullying situations among early adolescents in Sweden. Data were collected from 460 Swedish adolescents aged between 11 and 15 years who completed a survey in their classroom. Results showed that autonomous motivation to defend was po

This article outlines a number of new approaches in the history of medicine and medical humanities to the study of medical case histories from a genre-theoretical vantage point. Differentiating between morphological and structuralist concepts of genre, the essay proposes the investigation of similarities and differences among specific series of case histories in order to recover evolving, changing

Background: People with type 1 diabetes generally view it easier to exercise when having continuous information of the glucose levels. We evaluated whether patients with type 1 diabetes managed with multiple daily insulin injections (MDI) exercised more after initiating continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and whether the improved glycemic control and well-being associated with CGM translates into

The city of Copenhagen, often celebrated as one of the world’s greenest for its cycling culture and other initiatives, recently defaulted on its pledge to become carbon-neutral by 2025. This early failure in the global race to net zero emissions (a balance between CO₂ emitted and absorbed) may foreshadow backtracking by other target-setters, indicating that pledges to cease contributing to climate

This study provides a cross-platform, longitudinal investigation of pictures depicting political candidates posted to Facebook and Instagram over a 15-month period during the 2020 US election(n = 4,977). After motivating an exploratory research design, we set out to expound: the extent of cross-platform image posting across Facebook and Instagram; the emotion expression of politicians across the t

Spectra emitted from laser-produced plasmas of scandium, titanium, vanadium and chromium have been recorded in the region 270-600 Å, and lines belonging to the 3s-3p and 3p-3d transition arrays in neonlike ions have been identified. The 2p53s, 3p and 3d energy levels have been derived from the observations for Ti XIII and from solar flare lines for Fe XVII. Hartree-Fock calculations and parametric

Syftet med den här artikeln är att se närmare på kopplingen mellan positioner som framkommer i Finlandssvenska, manliga berättelser om skolprestation och affekten skam. Genom att se till positionerad underlägsenhetoch överlägsenhet, vill jag illustrera hur skam har en funktion i det berättade. Över och underlägsenhet används sompositionering mot berättelsen om skolprestation och gentemot föreställThe aim of this article is to illustrate the connection between narrative positioning and qualia in the re-telling of Finn-Swede boyhoods; and the function of shame. Shame works as an affective backdrop to male stories of school and achievement. The shame is constructed by master narrative positioning and shows a resistance to cultural certainties regarding boy’s school performance in a Finnish co

In a recent study, Bai (2013) proposes a new factor analytical (FA) method for estimation of stationary dynamic panel data models with fixed effects. Our interest in this method originates with the fact it does not require explicit demeaning of the data, a practice that is known to cause problems of bias and low power in near unit root panels. The purpose is to study the properties of FA when appl

Purpose: To explore patients’ preferred treatment outcomes during their first two years with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Patients and Methods: A qualitative, longitudinal, multicenter study with interviews at two time points was performed in Sweden. Individual interviews were conducted at time point 1 with 31 patients with RA, defined as disease duration of ≤1 year and treatment for 3–7 months. Sev

The purpose of the paper is to explore knowledge accumulation in research on pedagogy in entrepreneurship education, with particular attention to how core journal outlets, core topics and core scholarly works have developed over time. The authors combine a systematic literature review technique and bibliometric analysis to depict the development of this stream of research in the period 1995–2018. The purpose of the paper is to explore knowledge accumulation in research on pedagogy in entrepreneurship education, with particular attention to how core journal outlets, core topics and core scholarly works have developed over time. The authors combine a systematic literature review technique and bibliometric analysis Findings from the analyses suggests that research addressing pedagogy in entre

We have designed, built, and validated a (quasi)-simultaneous measurement platform called NUrF, which consists of neutron small-angle scattering, UV-visible, fluorescence, and densitometry techniques. In this contribution, we illustrate the concept and benefits of the NUrF setup combined with high-performance liquid chromatography pumps to automate the preparation and measurement of a mixture seri

The demand for fast and energy efficient (opto-)electronic applications needs high mobility semiconductor materials, such as InAs with a very high electron mobility and GaSb with a very high hole mobility. Beyond the material itself, also an innovative device geometry is needed, for example, the gate-all-around geometry that provides higher efficiency and electrostatic control for computational un

Context: Growth hormone (GH) is used to treat short children born small for gestational age (SGA); however, the effects of treatment on pubertal timing and adult height are rarely studied. Objective: To evaluate adult height and peak height velocity in short GH-treated SGA children. Methods: Prospective longitudinal multicenter study. Participants were short children born SGA treated with GH thera

Average energies for the configurations 2p5 3s, 3p and 3d in a number of neon-like ions from Al IV to Xe XLV have been calculated by means of the MCDF computer code of Grant et al. The results have been compared with observations and previous non-relativistic calculations. Fine- structure levels and 3s-3p and ip-3d transition wavelengths have also been calculated with the MCDF code for Ti XIII and

A 68-year-old man developed aneurysmal degeneration of the aortic arch and proximal descending aorta after an open ascending graft for a type A aortic dissection. A 3 branched endovascular aortic arch repair was performed with patency of all branches despite some degree of initial misalignment of the branches in relation to the target vessels. At 6 months post-operatively an asymptomatic partial c
