Validation of new superheavy elements and IUPAC-IUPAP joint working group

The great chemist Glenn Seaborg has written a delightful little book "Man-made Transuranium Elements", published in 1963, in which he points out that: "The former basic criterion for the discovery of a new element - namely, chemical identification and separation from all previously-known elements - had to be changed in the case of lawrencium (element 103). This also may be true for elements beyond

Degradation and fatigue of epoxy impregnated traction motors due to thermal and thermal induced mechanical stress - Part I : Thermal mechanical simulation of single wire due to evenly distributed temperature

The focus of this work is to characterize the mechanical stresses and fatigue along the enameled wire due to thermal expansion. The stresses and fatigue is estimated for a single wire and as a function of evenly distributed temperature. The estimation is based on both analytical equations and 3D Finite Element (FE) model. This characterization of mechanical stresses and fatigue is then used to exa

Gas6-Axl signaling in presence of Sunitinib is enhanced, diversified and sustained in renal tumor cells, resulting in tumor-progressive advantages

Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma (CCRCC) is a lethal cancer with bad prognosis due to development of chemoresistance and recurrence of more aggressive tumors. Investigation of Gas6-mediated Axl signaling in CCRCC and endothelial cells reveals a Sunitinib resistant Gas6-Axl signaling that is sustained and enhanced and specifically triggers downstream AKT and PRAS40 activation in an intensified manne

Degradation and fatigue of epoxy impregnated traction motors due to thermal and thermal induced mechanical stress - Part II : Thermal mechanical simulation of multiple wires due to evenly and unevenly distributed temperature

Part I of the study presents the importance and the analytical and numerical methods to perform a thermal- mechanical stress simulation with evenly distributed temperature for single wires. Part II of the study presents a method with thermal and mechanical conjugated simulations with unevenly distributed temperature for multiple wires and the results are compared to the structural simulation with

Comment on Possamai, Turner, Roose, Dagistanli and Voyce/2. : The "fatwa" chaos, the multiplication of competent authorities, and the state

The new forms of communication facilitated by the IT revolution have provided followers of various interpretations of Islam to participate in the newly opened public spheres. More and more Muslims find it possible to choose among these competing authorities and to select a suitable fatwa, to solve problems of everyday life and to smooth adjustments to living in the new environments. IT revolution

Origins and Pathways of Innovation in the Third Industrial Revolution : Sweden, 1950-2013

This study examines the factors that have shaped the long-term evolution of the ICT industry in Sweden, 1950-2013. Exploiting a new historical micro-database on actual innovation output, the driving forces and technological interdependencies in the third industrial revolution are chronicled. The results of this study support some stylized facts about innovational interdependencies in general-purpo

Impact of innovation policy on firm innovation : A comparison of Finland and Sweden, 1970-2013

To what extent have public policies contributed to the innovation performance of Finland and Sweden in the period 1970-2013? This paper aims to assess the share of innovations stimulated by the public sector, specifically because of receiving public funding or being the result of research collaboration with public institutions. We combine survey and LBIO results on these variables, to overcome rep

A Cone-preserving Solution to a Nonsymmetric Riccati Equation

In this paper, we provide the following simple equivalent condition for a nonsymmetric Algebraic Riccati Equation to admit a stabilizing cone-preserving solution: an associated coefficient matrix must be stable. The result holds under the assumption that said matrix be cross-positive on a proper cone, and it both extends and completes a corresponding sufficient condition for nonnegative matrices i

Fragmentation in Collisions of Snow with Graupel/Hail : New Formulation from Field Observations

Secondary ice production (SIP) has been attributed to the generation of most ice particles observed in precipitating clouds with cloud tops warmer than 2368C, from various aircraft- and ground-based field observations across the globe. One of the known SIP mechanisms is fragmentation during collisions among ice particles. It has been studied with our theoretical formulation, which has been applied

From curriculum to clinic : A qualitative study of junior doctors' perceptions of global health and sustainable development

Introduction The role of global health and sustainable development in medical education is often debated. However, research regarding medical doctors' views on the application of their global health knowledge in the clinical setting remains scarce. This study aimed to explore junior doctors' perceptions of global health and sustainable development, the education they have received on these issues

Nelly Thüring : Teosof, feminist, socialist

”All min strävan under denna skoldag – som ett jordeliv utgör – har varit att så mycket som möjligt främja det mänskliga broderskapets förverkligande på vår lilla jord.”Med dessa ord sammanfattade Nelly Thüring (1875–1972) sin livsfilosofi när hon vid 94 års ålder blev intervjuad av Socialdemokratiska kvinnoförbundets tidskrift Morgonbris. Som resetalare hade hon varit med och byggt upp det nystar”All I have strived for during this school day – that an earthly life amounts to – has been to do my utmost to promote the realization of human brotherhood on our little Earth.”This is how Nelly Thüring (1875–1972), at the age of 94, summarized her philosophy of life in an interview with Morgonbris, a journal published by the Swedish Social Democratic Women’s Federation. During the 1920s, she had

Estimating Herbaceous Aboveground Biomass Using an Indirect Method Based on the Herbaceous Layer Characteristics

Background: In the Sahel, one of the largest semi-arid areas in the world, pastoral livestock is the main source of protein for the local population. The quantification of herbaceous biomass in the Sahelian rangelands is of major importance since it provides food for the livestock. The main method used to monitor the biomass consists of cutting, drying, and weighting it. However, indirect methods
