The possibility of accurately identifying thermal material parameters on the basis of a simple tension test is presented, using a parameter identification framework for thermo-mechanically coupled material models on the basis of full field displacement and temperature field measurements. Main objective is to show the impact of the material model formulation on the results of such an identification

The aim of this study was to examine and construct a theoretical model of key elements that care workers perceive to have an impact on their autonomy, cohesion, and work motivation. Grounded theory was used for data collection and analysis. There were 20 participants from social welfare service, geriatric care, and women’s aid settings (women = 18, men = 2, mean age = 37.6). The analysis resulted

Conflict-driven pseudo-Boolean solvers optimize 0-1 integer linear programs by extending the conflict-driven clause learning (CDCL) paradigm from SAT solving. Though pseudo-Boolean solvers have the potential to be exponentially more efficient than CDCL solvers in theory, in practice they can sometimes get hopelessly stuck even when the linear programming (LP) relaxation is infeasible over the real

Species invasion and range expansion are currently under scrutiny due to increasing anthropogenic impact on the natural environment. This is also true for harmful algal blooms, which have been reported to have increased in frequency. However, this research is challenging due to the ephemeral nature, small size and mostly low concentrations of microalgae in the environment. One such species is the

Multiple morphologies of colloidal perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) diversify their optical and electronic properties. Among them, the linear absorption cross-section (σ) is a primary parameter to determine their intrinsic photophysical features, and consequently, application potential. Herein, three morphologies of all-inorganic hybrid colloidal perovskite CsPbBr3 NCs, nanocubes (NBs), nanoplatelets

Streptococcus agalactiae, also known as group B Streptococcus (GBS), is the major cause of neonatal sepsis in humans. A critical step to infection is adhesion of bacteria to epithelial surfaces. GBS adhesins have been identified to bind extracellular matrix components and cellular receptors. However, several putative adhesins have no host binding partner characterised. We report here that surface-

We review the present status of the Standard Model calculation of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. This is performed in a perturbative expansion in the fine-structure constant α and is broken down into pure QED, electroweak, and hadronic contributions. The pure QED contribution is by far the largest and has been evaluated up to and including O(α5) with negligible numerical uncertainty. T

Many researches have studied the dialogue in poetry in terms of its narrative function, and what value it adds to poetry when borrowing this artistic feature from a neighboring field, but most of those researches focus on it as a narrative or dramatic technique and then studied it depending on narrative theories and methods While this study focuses on what the dialogue adds to the poetic of poem,

Solid single-ion conducting electrolytes based on well-defined block copolymers show great potential for use in lithium batteries. Here, we report on triblock copolymers with an ion conductive poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) center block and two flanking blocks of poly(lithium 2,3,5,6–tetrafluorostyrene-4-trifluoromethanesulfonamide). The copolymers were prepared through atom transfer radical polymeriz

This Element is a contribution to a new generation of corpus pragmatics research by taking as its starting point the multifaceted nature of speech acts in conversation, and by adopting a mixed-methods approach. Through a unique combination of theoretical, qualitative, quantitative, and statistical approaches, it provides a detailed investigation of advice-giving and advice uptake in relation to (i

Svensk hälso- och sjukvård står inför stora utmaningar rörande kommunikation med patienter. En del av dessa utmaningar är kopplade till situationer där patienter, såsom asylsökande eller papperslösa, inte själva behärskar svenska språket. Användning av tolktjänster kan vara nödvändigt i sådana situationer. I denna artikel undersöks vårdgivarens och vårdpersonalens skyldigheter i tre situationer, n

In this preview of the introduction of the special issue of the AILA Review (Volume 34, Number 1), we focus on developing shared languages in and across domains and professional settings. The relation and collaboration between researchers and practitioners has long been discussed within and across applied sciences and theoretical disciplines, mainly in the framework of transdisciplinarity (see AIL

The term ´lifestyle enterprise´ is often used to describe enterprising in small enterprises, and particularly those small enterprises involved in tourism. Although this lifestyle enterprising phenomenon has been the subject of scholarly investigations since at least the late 1980s, conceptual and theoretical development remains lacking. Typically conceived in objectivist terms as a form of entrepr

We ask if mass tourism, morphing into over-tourism, can be conceptualised as an emerging plague of zombie tourists, and what kinds of tourism futures might come of it? Overtourism is not only unsustainable; it is the logical outcome of capitalism and thus, a token signifying that the capitalist system is well and alive even though it is threatening everything else on Earth. We outline a drastic na

Gender influences how researchers engage with the field. Departing from this proposition, this presentation offers reflections on gender from masculine viewpoints in the context of a qualitative research project investigating lifestyle enterprising in southern Sweden. Focusing on personal experiences associated with family relocation to, and involvement in, the research process, the presentation f

This is a review of contemporary philosophical discussions of population policies. The focus is on normative justification, and the main question is whether population policies can be ethically justified. Although few analytical philosophers have directly addressed this question – it has been discussed more in other academic fields – many arguments and considerations can be placed in the analytica
