Vår studie visade att det fanns ett samband mellan marknadsandel och lojalitet. Vidare vad gäller sambandet mellan lojalitet och priselasticitet samt pris och lojalitet hittades inget samband eftersom denna var väldigt svag.Our study showed that there is a relationship between market share and loyalty. Regarding the relationship between loyalty and price elasticity and price and loyalty, the study shows a very weak correlation. Thus the conclusion that there is no correlation .

This study examines the adaptive capacity of desert farming in Egypt to imminent water scarcity and discusses the sustainability of fossil groundwater extraction. Through qualitative semi-structured expert interviews, the study identifies clear research and data gaps related to the Nubian Sandstone Aquifer System (NSAS) and highlights the need for a nuanced approach to fossil groundwater extractio

Ethnographically inspired methods have in recent years been successfully applied in Information Science (IS) research on different forms of social media related practices (c.f. Sundin & Francke 2009a; 2009b, Kjellberg 2010). This paper aims to contribute to an emerging discussion on the use of this methodological approach for analysing and comprehending consequences of the 2.0-turn in public l

Organometal halide perovskite-based solar cells have recently been reported to be highly efficient, giving an overall power conversion efficiency of up to 15%. However, much of the fundamental photophysical properties underlying this performance has remained unknown. Here, we apply photoluminescence, transient absorption, time-resolved terahertz and microwave conductivity measurements to determine

BACKGROUND Tannins can bind to and precipitate protein by forming insoluble complexes resistant to fermentation and with a positive effect on protein utilisation by ruminants. Three protein types, Rubisco, rapeseed protein and bovine serum albumin (a single high-molecular weight protein), were used to test the effects of increasing concentrations of structurally different condensed tannins on prot

In contemporary nuclear physics, the European Advanced GAmma Tracking Array (AGATA) represents a crucial detection system for cutting-edge nuclear structure studies. AGATA consists of highly segmented high-purity germanium crystals and uses the pulse-shape analysis technique to determine both the position and the energy of the γ-ray interaction points in the crystals. It is the tracking algorithms

Alla människor har ett värde som ligger i deras egenskap av att vara just människor. Men att vara människa är inte vad vi aktivt blir definierade som utan i första hand kan identiteter såsom ”elev” komma. Syftet med min uppsats är att undersöka huruvida den svenska grundskolan har en fullständig potential till att respektera sina elevers människovärde trots att de främst blir sedda som elever. FörEvery human being has a value in itself solely on the ground that they are human beings. But a human being is not what you are first and foremost defined as, but rather, for example a “pupil”. The purpose of this essay is to examine whether the Swedish elementary school has the full potential of respecting its’ pupils’ human worth. In order to achieve this I have intertwined threads from philosoph

The critical effect of load representation in voltage stability studies is discussed in this paper. Under the same conditions in the system, the load representation will affect the location of the operating point in a P-V curve representation, leading the system closer to or further from the collapse point. The use of dynamic load models in voltage stability studies is motivated, especially in tho

Accidents and injuries caused by electricity are work environment risks for electricians. About a 100 cases are reported annually to the Swedish Work Environment Authority. The safety culture at the electricians’ workplaces can affect the successfulness of safety management and the prevention of injuries. This paper presents preliminary questionnaire and interview findings on the perceived workpla

Delays and cost overruns are frequent problems in the construction industries of both developed and developing countries. Studies aimed at identifying the causes are often undertaken with just a broad appreciation of the construction process and frequently do not deal with multicultural issues when considering the reasons for overruns. The paper critically reviews existing attempts to uncover the

Following a brief discussion on aspects of visual appearance and roles respectively, two user studies are presented and discussed. Both focus on learner experiences and explore the reciprocal relation between visual appearance of virtual agents and their pedagogical roles. The paper concludes with some preliminary guidelines for the early stages of the design process of virtual pedagogical agents.

The present international standards for safety, protective and occupational footwear EN ISO 20344 – 20347 classify footwear as cold protective by a pass/fail test where the limits are set for an allowed 10 °C temperature drop inside the footwear at a sole location during 30 minutes at a temperature gradient of about 40 °C. In a test of five footwear including a summer sandal it was shown that all

Particle generation from humans is a severe problem when working in cleanrooms and other controlled environments. Data regarding the number of particles generated by humans are few and there are no detailed references as to how these studies have been performed. An experimental method to determine the particle release from a human being in a cleanroom was developed and used to describe the variati

This paper presents a summary analysis of data regarding evacuation model users experiences and needs obtained via an online survey. The survey was available in 6 languages: English, German, Chinese, Spanish, Italian and Russian. The different versions allowed the survey to be accessible to an international participant base. The survey was developed by the team at www.Evacmod.net ; an evacuation m
