Purpose: This study aims to explore the 3 D separated flow fields and heat transfer characteristics at the end wall of a serpentine channel with various turn clearances using topological analysis and critical points principles of three-dimensional vortex flow. Design/methodology/approach: This aims to explore the 3 D separated flow fields and heat transfer characteristics at the end wall of a serp

We study family firm status as an important condition in signaling theory; specifically, we propose that the market reacts more positively to positive, and more negatively to negative, CSR news (i.e., signals) from family firms than to similar news from nonfamily firms. Moreover, we propose that during recessions, the direction of these relationships reverses. Based on an event study of 1247 posit

In 2010, the Swedish Civil Contingencies Agency (MSB) announced a “vision zero” of zero fire deaths in Sweden by 2050. Studies into fire deaths have identified that certain risk groups, including but not limited to older people, are overrepresented in fire death statistics in Sweden. The MSB has developed guidelines for how individualised fire safety (IFS) can be implemented in local communities f

Printed almanacs in the Danish language are preserved from the sixteenth century. The production of almanacs increased from the 1570’s just as that of news sheets, pamphlets, and chapbook stories. From the beginning the almanac covered a sheet of paper consisting of 16 leaves, or 32 pages. As a supplement, four or eight leaves of paper contained the Practica Astroligica. This form – 40 or 48 pages

This chapter investigates the location pattern (at the NUTS 2 level) of European-based star scientists (identified by the number of citations they generated in journals in the ISI database) as well as the degree and intensity of knowledge sharing activities performed by the scientific elite in their regions of choice. Using a unique dataset of 197 star scientists, we demonstrate that Europe’s worl

Spectra of hot (type B) stars obtained with the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE) satellite in the region 1000-1200

The report gives an account on PhD-training in the five Nordic and three Baltic countries as well as Russian and Germany.

In this paper, an automatic method for reducing chemical mechanisms during run time based on the quasi-steady-state assumption (ASSA) is presented. The method uses a lifetime analysis of the chemical species which can be set to steady state according to a ranking procedure. Steady-state species concentrations are computed by algebraic rather than differential equations, thus yielding a significant
