Due to the globalization with free labour transfer, migrant workers are unavoidably the most targeted group for human trafficking business. Trafficking in persons is a global issue because of its engagement with the international organized crime. Apart from that, as the Protocol on Trafficking in Persons has been in force since 2003, States have turned their attention to the issue and many of them
The Chinese economy has been growing with a pace and duration that the world has never seen before. Since 1978, the country has been facing a constant economic growth for more than 30 years. One of the pillars of the economy is the automotive industry; an interesting mixture of Joint Ventures and independent companies. The competition is cut throat and has even been more intense after the China’s
The purpose of the study was to examine how mothers from 30 to 35 years living in a big city felt that stress and status affects their everyday lives and health. My questions was how mothers feel and handling requirements in relation to family life and parenting versus career, the demands on the mothers themselves, and how mothers look at the link between stress and status? I wanted to explore the
The objective of the study was to examine the changes in central nervous system (CNS) activity and physical behaviour during induction and awakening from CO2 anaesthesia. Two studies, each using pigs immersed into 90% CO2 gas for a period of 60s were performed. In study 1, we monitored middle latency auditory evoked potentials (changes in latencies, amplitudes and a depth of anaesthesia index), el
Histamine is known to be present in ovarian tissue and may play a role in the ovulation process. The effect of histamine on the follicular smooth musculature was investigated using strips from the protruding part of mature bovine follicles, mounted in vitro for registration of isometric motor activity. Histamine contracted the preparation in a concentration-dependent manner. The response was inhib
Recent studies document a 30-year decline in various measures of entrepreneurship in the U.S. Using detailed Swedish employer-employee data over the period from 1990 to 2013, we find young firms to be more prominent in the Swedish business sector than in the U.S. business sector. Young Swedish firms, aged five years or less, account for more than half of all firms during this period. We also obser
The Arctic is warming at twice the global average speed, and the warming-induced increases in biogenic volatile organic compounds (BVOCs) emissions from Arctic plants are expected to be drastic. The current global models' estimations of minimal BVOC emissions from the Arctic are based on very few observations and have been challenged increasingly by field data. This study applied a dynamic ecosyst
Acoustic fatigue can occur in structural elements of an aircraft exposed to very high sound pressures. To deal with acoustic fatigue, mainly empirical methods have been applied and often late in the design phase. Current design guidelines have several limitations. First, they do not say anything about the load intensities. The load levels can be determined either experimentally or numerically. Exp
The safety and pharmacokinetics of carbetocin, a long-acting oxytocin analogue, were studied in 25 healthy nonpregnant women. The distribution and elimination half-lives of a 0.4-mg intravenous dose were found to be 5.5 ± 1.6 minutes and 41 ± 11.9 minutes, respectively. Similarly, the half-lives of a 0.8-mg intravenous dose were found to be 6.1 ± 1.2 minutes and 42.7 ± 10.6 minutes. Approximately
Emissions from aviation are expected to grow. With evidence that the International Civil Aviation Organization’s Carbon Offsetting and Reduction Scheme for International Aviation is an inadequate mitigation mechanism, there is interest in upscaling the sector’s climate-related policies. This paper reviews potential aviation emissions mitigation policies against the background of emerging complexit
Classical model reduction techniques project the governing equations onto a linear subspace of the original state space. More recent data-driven techniques use neural networks to enable nonlinear projections. While those often enable stronger compression, they may have redundant parameters and lead to suboptimal latent dimensionality. To overcome these issues, we propose a multistep algorithm that
Sustainable Aviation Fuels (SAF) are the most promising strategy for reducing the carbon emissions of aviation in the near term, but their combustion behavior is not well understood compared to conventional fuels. This work investigates how different properties of SAF may lead to different emergent combustion behavior by targeting a small set of very distinct fuels. The investigation is carried ou
Droplets temperature is a key parameter for the study of heat and mass transfers in many spray applications. Time correlated single photons counting (TCSPC) is applied to monitor the fluorescence decay and determine the droplet temperature in the mixing zone of two sprays which are injected with significantly different temperatures. For some well-chosen fluorescent dye, like rhodamine B (RhB), the
Mosses have often been used for biomonitoring because of their diversity of habitats, structural simplicity, and rapid multiplication rate. This research aimed to study the tolerance of heavy metal in 3 species of terricolous mosses i.e., Barbula consanguinea, Hyophila apiculata, and H. involuta. The gametophores of mosses were immersed at 4 concentrations of each of the heavy metals Cd, Pb, and Z
Surface plasmon resonance is a very well-established surface sensitive technique for label-free analysis of biomolecular interactions, generating thousands of publications each year. An inconvenient effect that complicates interpretation of SPR results is the "bulk response" from molecules in solution, which generate signals without really binding to the surface. Here we present a physical model f
The investigation is concentrated on two important quantities – the Strouhal number and the mean base suction coefficient, both measured at the mid-span position. Reynolds numbers from about 50 to 4 × 104 were investigated. Different aspect ratios, at low blockage ratios, were achieved by varying the distance between circular end plates (end plate diameter ratios between 10 and 30). It was not pos
