Field analyses for determination of material parameters - experimental and numerical aspects : Proceedings of the IUTAM Symposium held in Abisko National Park, Kiruna, Sweden, July 31 - August 4, 2000

The need for modelling of materials behaviour under various mechanical conditions is driven by the evolution of computer capacity and the ability of scientists to address complex mechanical problems. Reliable models for materials behaviour, including accurate numerical values of parameters, are necessary for a continued beneficial development of the computational side of solid mechanics.

Although retailing is often characterized by a dynamic and highly competitive environment, retail organi- zations are not often considered as ‘innovative,’ at least when compared with manufacturing industries, or when using exist- ing innovation frameworks

Change your language, change your mind? : The impact of framing, language use, and language switching on Swedish speakers’ decision making

Research findings on whether or not using a foreign language systematically alters people’s decisions by mitigating framing effects, are inconclusive. The bulk of previous research suggests that our decisions are affected by the language they are made in. A more recent study however indicates that this phenomenon might be related to an unexpected switch of language prior to a decision rather than

Users influence in social-service innovations : Two swedish case studies

This article uses case studies to address the sources of social innovation, a major contributor to economic growth and welfare services. Following the findings of user-innovation research in the commercial sector, the authors found that social-problem users innovate new social services for solving specific social problems. They also found that superior problem and solution knowledge is one reason
