The three works analyzed here were published at the culmination of Swedish romanticism. The strange mixture of the high and the low, the sacred and the profane that is typical for them has been an interesting challenge for literary scholars. For instance, in older research one sometimes spoke of poor handwork, or bad taste of the writers or it was explained that these works were a stage between th

ABB has identified a potential in decreasing their levels of capital employed and in particular net working capital, NWC. To release tied up capital from the balance sheet, a decision was taken to start an initiative with focus on NWC. The focus area is to reduce NWC as percentage of revenues and to reduce the levels of overdues. The objective of this report is to describe a methodology for decrea

Disturbances in the supply of utilities may lead to large economical losses at industrial sites. In order to take appropriate decisions on for which utilities improvement efforts should be made, a tool for evaluating the economical effects of utility disturbances is needed. This paper presents a tool for quickly estimating the revenue loss caused by each utility, using simple matrix operations. A

Organisations have flattened and increasingly rely on teamwork. Therefore, colleagues play an increasingly important role in stimulating employee motivation. Adopting Self-Determination Theory as a guiding framework, the aim of this field experiment was to examine whether team members can be trained in supporting each other's basic psychological needs for autonomy, competence, and relatedness and,

In this work we present a practical thermogravimetric method for quantifying the IEC (ion exchange capacity) decrease of hydroxide exchange membranes (HEMs) during intrinsic degradation mainly occurring through nucleophilic attack of the anion exchanging group by hydroxide ions. The method involves measuring weight changes under controlled temperature and relative humidity. These conditions are cl

The gram-positive, endospore-forming bacterium Bacillus subtilis contains several membrane-bound c-type cytochromes. We have isolated a mutant pleiotropically deficient in cytochromes c. The responsible mutation resides in a gene which we have named ccdA (cytochrome c defective). This gene is located at 173 degrees on the B. subtilis chromosome. The ccdA gene was found to be specifically required

Data-driven methods and algorithms show immense potential for future advancements in the modeling and simulation of complex mechanical systems. However, in order to actually exploit this potential, the methods must be extended to consider inelastic and path-dependent material behavior—a step that appears more complex than in conventional material modeling, where this can be achieved with the help

Two electrotechnologies: pulsed electric fields (PEF) and moderate electric field (MEF) in combination with vacuum impregnation of glycerol as cryoprotectant were used to increase the freezing tolerance of rocket leaves. Rocket leaves were treated with PEF using a nominal field strength of 1200 V/cm or MEF at different combinations of voltage and frequency. Leaves were then immersed in a glycerol

Plasmodium parasites are present in a wide range of host species, some of which tend to be more susceptible than others, potentially as an outcome of evolved tolerance or resistance. Common starlings seem to cope with malaria infection while common crossbills are more susceptible to the same infections. That raises the question if the parasites rely on the same molecular mechanisms regardless of h

Osteoporotic fracture is among the most common and costly of diseases. While reasonably heritable, its genetic determinants have remained elusive. Forearm fractures are the most common clinically recognized osteoporotic fractures with a relatively high heritability. To establish an atlas of the genetic determinants of forearm fractures, we performed genome-wide association analyses including 100,0

Research demonstrates that digital technologies stimulate industrial transformation by enabling new interdependencies with firms outside and across firm and industry boundaries. However, we know little about the degree of novelty and breadth of digital technologies that have the potential to transform industries. Understanding the degree of novelty (spanning from radical to incremental) and breadt

This paper uses the framework of ecofeminism in its exploration of two rural modernist novels, Sylvia Townsend Warner’s Lolly Willowes (1926) and Mary Webb’s Precious Bane (1924). The development of ecocriticism and ecofeminism in the 1980s saw a proliferation of work on the relation between literature, gender and the natural environment (Glotfelty and Fromm, 1996; Gaard, 1993; Warren, 1997). The

OBJECTIVE:: Early postoperative pain correlates to persisting pain, psychosocial distress, and delayed mobilization with thromboembolic and infectious complications. Electrical pain thresholds (EPT) have shown promising results in being able to predict postoperative pain, but the results are conflicting. The aim of this study was to test whether EPT levels can be used to predict postoperative pain

Surface tension is crucial for nanowire vapor liquid solid (VLS) growth models and simulations of growth under external stimuli. A promising method involving imaging droplet deformation under an external electric field has previously been used to report the surface tension of the AuSi eutectic catalyst on Si-nanowires. However, simplified assumptions in this approach led to a significantly lower v
