Media Industries and Engagement: A Dialogue across Industry and Academia

This article focuses on media engagement within the industry. The article takesthe form of a dialogue between industry and academic researchers involved ina collaborative project on production and audience research on engagement(funded by the Wallenberg Foundation and in collaboration with Endemol ShineGroup). Speakers from the film and television industry, and academic researchersworking on media

Liberal Intellectuals and Human Rights in the Turkish Public Sphere : Contestation and Pragmatism from the 1990s to the AKP-era

This dissertation examines the public interventions, rhetoric, and actions of liberal intellectuals in Turkey between the early 1990sand 2012 regarding the rights of Kurdish and Islamic actors and restrictions on discussing the Armenian Genocide of 1915. Theanalysis of diverse texts published by the interconnected intellectuals – newspaper columns, academic articles, policy papers,reports, and man

Human responses in heat – comparison of the Predicted Heat Strain and the Fiala multi-node model for a case of intermittent work.

Two mathematical models of human thermal regulation include the rational Predicted Heat Strain (PHS) and the thermophysiological model by Fiala. The approaches of the models are different, however, they both aim at providing predictions of the thermophysiological responses to thermal environments of an average person. The aim of this study was to compare and analyze predictions of the two models a

Hållbarhetskriterier för biogas : En översyn av data och metoder

I Sverige är biodrivmedel befriade från energi- och koldioxidskatt förutsatt att drivmedlet uppfyller hållbarhetskriterierna i EU:s direktiv om främjande av användningen av energi från förnybara energikällor. Ett av kriterierna är att användningen av biodrivmedlet måste leda till minskade emissioner av växthusgaser jämfört med fossila bränslen. Utsläppsreduktionen ska beräknas på det sätt som ange

Sensorless Kinesthetic Teaching of Robotic Manipulators Assisted by Observer-Based Force Control

In modern day industry, robots are indispensable for achieving high production rates and competitiveness. In small and medium scale enterprises, where the production may shift rapidly, it is vital to be able to reprogram robots quickly. Kinesthetic teaching, also known as lead-through programming (LTP), provides a fast approach for teaching a trajectory. In this approach, a trajectory is demonstra

Competition between weak OH·π and CH·O hydrogen bonds : THz spectroscopy of the C2H2 - H2O and C2H4 - H2O complexes

THz absorption spectra have been recorded for the weakly bound molecular complexes of H2O with C2H4 and C2H2 embedded in cryogenic neon matrices at 2.8 K. The observation and assignment of a large-amplitude acceptor OH librational mode of the C2H2 - H2O complex at 145.5 cm−1 confirms an intermolecular CH⋯O hydrogen-bonded configuration of C2v symmetry with the H2O subunit acting as the hydrogen bo

3D-Printed Soft Lithography for Complex Compartmentalized Microfluidic Neural Devices

Compartmentalized microfluidic platforms are an invaluable tool in neuroscience research. However, harnessing the full potential of this technology remains hindered by the lack of a simple fabrication approach for the creation of intricate device architectures with high-aspect ratio features. Here, a hybrid additive manufacturing approach is presented for the fabrication of open-well compartmental

Favorable Propagation with User Cluster Sharing

We examine the favorable propagation (FP) behavior of a massive multi-user multiple-input-multiple-output (MU-MIMO) system equipped with a uniform linear array (ULA), horizontal uniform rectangular array (HURA) or uniform circular array (UCA) using a ray-based channel model with user cluster sharing. We demonstrate FP for these systems and provide analytical expressions for the mean-squared distan

Hydrophobic and Hydrophilic Extractives in Norway Spruce and Kurile Larch and Their Role in Brown-Rot Degradation

Extractives found in the heartwood of a moderately durable conifer (Larix gmelinii var. japonica) were compared with those found in a non-durable one (Picea abies). We identified and quantified heartwood extractives by extraction with solvents of different polarities and gas chromatography with mass spectral detection (GC-MS). Among the extracted compounds, there was a much higher amount of hydrop

Till det sociala arbetets försvar : - vad försvarar forskare och praktiker i socialt arbete?

Syftet med den här texten är att stå upp till det professionella sociala arbetets försvar genom ett kritiskt förhållningssätt till både forskare och socionomer/praktiker i socialt arbete. Vad gäller forskare riktas blicken framförallt mot forskarkarriären, och vad gäller socionomer uppmärksammas yrkesutövningen på den fältbaserade praktiken med fokus på kommunal aktivering av arbetslösa och brukar

Deadly violence in Sweden: Profiling offenders through a latent class analysis

BackgroundSweden has in recent years witnessed increasing rates of firearm-related violence and homicide, which has contributed to increased rates of deadly violence. Attempts to profile offenders committing such crimes are of major importance, because such efforts may contribute to better preventive measures. We therefore aimed to study the characteristics of individuals convicted and/or suspecte

Tolkning av entreprenadavtal

I Tolkning av entreprenadavtal behandlas praktiskt återkommande tolkningsfrågor som aktualiserar tolkning av villkor i andra kontraktshandlingar än Allmänna bestämmelser. Detta sker mot bakgrund av såväl Högsta domstolens praxis som avgöranden från underrätterna. Boken riktar sig till praktiskt verksamma jurister samt ingenjörer och andra yrkesgrupper som regelbundet arbetar med entreprenadavtal.

Strategic improvisation in crisis communication

Falkheimer and Heide further develop their integration of improvisation into crisis communication. They argue that improvisation is a way to develop innovative thinking. Falkheimer and Heide argue crisis managers must adapt to new circumstances and situations making improvisation a value asset. Drawing from the leadership literature, they develop the idea of strategic improvisation. Strategic impr

The Impact of Parental Diabetes on the Prevalence of Childhood Obesity

Background: Obesity among children and adolescents is a worldwide public health concern. Type 1 diabetes (T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) incidence are increasing, with heredity and socioeconomic status as possible risk factors. How these factors affect the risk of childhood obesity remains unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the association between obesity and parental diabetes among
