PurposeThis paper aims to investigate the process by which performative technologies (PTs), in this case accreditation work in a business school, take form and how humans engage in making up such practices. It studies how academics come to accept and even identify with the quantitative representations of themselves in a translation process.Design/methodology/approachThe research involved a longitu
The past few decades have seen a full resurgence of the question of whether speakers of different languages think differently, also known as the Whorfian question. A characteristic of this neo-Whorfian enterprise is that the knowledge it has generated stems from psycholinguistic laboratory methods. As a consequence, our knowledge about how Whorfian effects play out in naturally occurring behaviour
Let H be a space of analytic functions on the unit ball Bd in Cd with multiplier algebra Mult(H). A function f ∈ H is called cyclic if the set [f], the closure of {ϕf : ϕ ∈ Mult(H)}, equals H. For multipliers we also consider a weakened form of the cyclicity concept. Namely for n ∈ N0 we consider the classes Cn(H) = {ϕ ∈ Mult(H): ϕ /= 0, [ϕn] = [ϕn+1]}. Many of our results hold for N:th order radi
Materials with heterogeneous microstructures architected across several scales are becoming increasingly popular in structural applications due to unique strength–ductility balance. One of the most popular 3D-architected structure designs is harmonic structure (HS) where soft coarse-grain (CG) islands are embedded in a hard continuous 3D skeleton of ultrafine grains (UFGs). In this work, a series
Aim: The Swedish Renal Registry (SRR) is a unique national quality registry that monitors the clinical trajectory of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We have validated the biopsy data registered in the SRR for IgA Nephropathy (IgAN) diagnosis. Methods: In total 25% of all patients (n = 142), registered with IgAN in the SRR after having performed a kidney biopsy during 2015–2019, were ra
A data-driven method combined with the formulations of boundary integral equations is developed for the frequency-domain analysis of parametrized acoustic systems, arising from the spatial discretization of the linear Helmholtz equation. The method derives surrogate models for the approximation of frequency response functions at selected field points via the construction of neural networks with ra
The MAX IV Laboratory, inaugurated in 2016, hosts a 3 GeV ultra-low emittance storage ring, a 1.5 GeV storage ring and a linear accelerator driven Short Pulse Facility to deliver synchrotron radiation to scientific users. A Stability Task Force has been assigned to ensure the delivery of stable beams since early on in the design phase of the laboratory and is continuing its work in an ongoing and
This chapter assess the state of brass instruments and their associated repertoire and performance practices in the early twenty-first century. Technological innovations and manufacturing developments from recent decades are outlined, as well an examination of how performance techniques have evolved and adapted to meet the demands of modern musicians. Finally, an overview is given of contemporary
Animal migration has fascinated scientists and the public alike for centuries, yet migratory animals are facing diverse threats that could lead to their demise. The Anthropocene is characterised by the reality that humans are the dominant force on Earth, having manifold negative effects on biodiversity and ecosystem function. Considerable research focus has been given to assessing anthropogenic im
In this talk recent progress in studying the short-distance properties of the hadronic light-by-light contribution to the muon g−2 is described. The intermediate and short-distance part contributes a large part of the error of the theoretical prediction as described in the white paper [1]. We showed that the massless quark-loop is the first term in a systematic expansion at short-distances, a resu
Inflammation and autoimmunity are known as central processes in many skin diseases, including psoriasis. It is therefore important to develop pre-clinical models that describe disease-related aspects to enable testing of pharmaceutical drug candidates and formulations. A widely accepted pre-clinical model of psoriasis is the imiquimod (IMQ)-induced skin inflammation mouse model, where topically ap
The recent history of Sudan, as is evident from the strict international relevance and the tragic events linked with the birth of South Sudan in July 2011, has been punctuated by an endless series of abuses, inter-ethnic tensions and sectarian conflicts. The multi-ethnic composition and the evident religious disparities among the populations residing in the northern and southern regions of Sudan h
Recent research into migration in Bangladesh has highlighted that people migrate for better livelihoods, not necessarily in response to climatic stresses and shocks. If facilitated appropriately, internal and international migration can help build adaptive capacity to future environmental and climatic hazards. In this framing, migration happens in the context of a growing city-centred economy that
