Abstract in Undetermined The importance of ideation in the conceptual design phase has been widely accepted. Shah et al. (2003) developed four key metrics for evaluating a designer’s exploration and expansion of design space. The four metrics are: novelty, variety, quality, and quantity of designs. The mean of novelty scores of ideas in a set (i.e. Average Novelty - AN) has also been used in some
During more than three decades, corporate non-financial and sustainability reporting has been widely conceived as a voluntary practice, a matter of going beyond the requirements of the law. Therefore, it has been traditionally overlooked by legal and socio-legal scholars. However, during the last decade things have rapidly changed. We are currently witnessing the emergence of a mix of mandatory a
Background: The link between squamous cell cervical carcinoma and human papillomavirus (HPV) 16/18 is well established, but the magnitude of the risk association is uncertain and the importance of other high-risk HPV (HRHPV) types is unclear. Methods: In two prospective nested case-control series among women participating in cytologic screening in Sweden, we collected 2,772 cervical smears from 51
Many extensions of the Standard Model predict the existence of charged heavy long-lived particles, such as R-hadrons or charginos. These particles, if produced at the Large Hadron Collider, should bemoving non-relativistically and are therefore identifiable through the measurement of an anomalously large specific energy loss in the ATLAS pixel detector. Measuring heavy long-lived particles through
The Single Molecule Spectroscopy Group at the department of Chemical Physics in the Chemical Centre of Lund University conducts research involving spectroscopy on single molecules of organic dyes. Fluorescence microscopy using a wide-field scheme has been used and such a scheme has many advantages such as full image capture at once when using a high sensitivity CCD or CMOS camera. Using different
The aim of this study was to examine the views of middle managers in public elderly care regarding their role in their organizations. The study used semi-structured interviews and five middle managers from the same municipality were interviewed. The interviews showed trends in how the managers felt about the area they had to operate within and the slack they had to take personal decisions pointing
Syftet med studien var att utifrån en kvalitativ ansats undersöka högstadielärares motivation i deras dagliga arbete. I undersökningen har lärarna fått reflektera och berätta om sin självupplevda motivation, hur de upplever sina arbetsuppgifter och hur deras yrke påverkar dem personligen. Undersökningen har gett en djup bild av lärarnas egna upplevelser av sin arbetssituation. Genom semistrukturerThe purpose of this study was to examine motivation of high school teachers in their daily work. The teachers in the study have been given an opportunity to reflect and describe their work motivation, how they experience their work and how their profession affects them personally. The survey has given a deep picture of the teachers' own experiences of their work situation. Through semi-structu
Under international law, a government of a state is entitled to the sovereign right to invite another state to intervene militarily on its territory. This type of consensual use of military force is an exception to the rules on prohibition of use of force among states, and unlawfulness is precluded through such governmental consent. The extent to which a government is entitled to invite has been d
Canada has a long history of colonialism that ended in 1867. Before and after this the Indigenous peoples have been the target of several assimilation strategies, the most famous being the Indian Residential Schools system. To deal with its legacy, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada was set up. Critique has been directed towards the commission for failing to deal with unequal power
Tillämpningen av lagen (1991:572) om särskild utlänningskontroll har de senaste åren kraftigt ökat. Lagen avser kvalificerade säkerhetsärenden och möjliggör för Säkerhetspolisen att ta utländska medborgare som bedöms utgöra en fara för rikets säkerhet i förvar i avvaktan på att de utvisas. Eftersom utvisningarna sällan kan verkställas med anledning av risken för omänsklig behandling i mottagandelaThe application of the Act (1991:572) Concerning Special Controls in Respect of Aliens have had a major increase these last few years. The law refers to qualified security cases and enables the Security Police to take foreign citizens who are deemed to pose a danger to national security into custody pending their deportation. As the deportations can seldom be carried out due to the risk of inhuman
Social work has been greatly affected by the corona pandemic. This can be seen in the area of domestic abuse, where social workers have had to adapt to an increase in domestic violence and victims who are now forced to isolate. This can be attributed to the restrictions the governments around the world have enforced on the populations to fight the pandemic. Since social workers are fundamental whe
We present a parton-level phenomenological study of triple-Higgs production at leading order in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 100 TeV with an integrated luminosity of 30 ab^-1. This study aims to estimate the prospects for measuring the signal hhh production observable at the Future Circular Collider. We explore interesting final states that could be used for this purpose
The battle for Aleppo culminated in the year 2016 when Syrian regime forces captured northern parts of Aleppo making a siege a reality for many people. A question of who was to blame isn’t always clear when looking at complex conflicts. People often look towards media to make meaning of such complexities. This paper examines two different news organizations, RT and CNN, role in depicting perpetrat
The world under globalization is moving toward a single market, where national economies are becoming more integrated and interconnected. In this context, over the last decades, the perception of FDI positive spillovers has made developed and developing countries competing to attract foreign investors. This study analyses the determinants of FDI during the globalization process, both theoretically
This study aimed to determine the optimal method for extracting rosmarinic acid (RA) from lemon balm using pressurized liquid extraction (PLE). Additionally, the effect of filtration during sample preparation on the concentration of rosmarinic acid (RA) was investigated. Moreover, the RA content was compared in various lemon balm samples including: commercial dried lemon balm, commercial lemon bal
