Design and manufacturing of an electric vehicle for car-sharing in Bogotá

Car-sharing systems with electric vehicles are an alternative to reduce commuting times in big cities and also to mitigate air pollution. Car-sharing exists in 1100 cities around the world. These systems have had positive effects in the cities, replacing between 9 and 23 private vehicles for each car. This document proposes a public car-sharing system for Bogotá. The article focuses on the design

Specification of a Specimen for Accelerated Thermal Aging Tests

This document presents design considerations of a sample for accelerated thermal aging tests. The proposed specimen is a parallel wired solenoid that is evaluated by using an axi-symmetric 2D finite element (FE) model in Comsol multi-physics. The aim of the design model is visualizing an interior stress distribution of an idealized coil in order to interpret the physics-of-failure in a more comple

Dynamic changes of excitatory amino acid receptors in the rat hippocampus following transient cerebral ischemia

The changes in excitatory amino acid receptor ligand binding induced by transient cerebral ischemia were studied in the rat hippocampal subfields. Ten minutes of ischemia was induced by common carotid artery occlusion combined with hypotension, and the animals were allowed variable periods of recovery ranging from 1 day to 4 weeks. The binding of 3H-AMPA (alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole

Environmental value orientation as an explanation of differing motives for conservation of the local biodiversity.

Biological diversity encompasses the genetic diversity within each species, the range of species in a given ecosystem e.g. species diversity and the diversity of ecosystems across an entire region (Primack, 2000). At present 1 per cent of the world’s described species are threatened with extinction. The most pervasive and overriding threat is habitat loss and degradation due to human activity such

Motivation and the standardization of work: Industry revisited or a victory to professionalism?

The standardization of work processes has become an increasingly common feature in the public administration, aiming at both efficiency and equal treatment of citizens. Combining this standardization with employee motivation is considered a challenge. This challenge is explored, based on a survey among officials at the Swedish Social Insurance Agency. Results reveal that, contrary to expectations,
