Polar nights, extreme cold, and snow are part of the identity of Arctic cities; these elements together set a particular demand for urban designers to find solutions to make the city more livable and attractive during the long dark days in the winter and still thrive on being enjoyable during the long bright days in the short summers. However, Arctic cities are threatened continuously by shrinking
Finns det någon poäng med att övertyga gästerna om varumärkets storhet om inte de anställda är med på tåget? Det har påpekats att utan motiverade och nöjda anställda riskerar varumärkets och ledningens löften till gästerna att bli tomma, då det är personalen som ska leverera den utlovade servicen. Vi anser det intressant att undersöka hur företag inom hotellbranschen arbetar med att motivera sin p
Catalonia is a nation with it's own language, its own culture, own policy and own history it is said. A non-independent nation that is living it's ordinary life flagging its banal symbols as if it al ready was an independent state. Some catalanistas assert that this kind of weirdness could be the death row for Catalonia and its future as in independent nation of its own. They state that it
The ultramafic-mafic layered igneous Molopo Farms Complex straddles the border between South Africa and Botswana. Younger cover obscures this igneous complex and its country rocks, which are generally assigned to the Paleoproterozoic Transvaal Supergroup. The area intruded by the complex is characterized by abutting and contrasting successions of the upper Transvaal Supergroup (i.e., the Pretoria
INTRODUCTION: With the implementation of early reperfusion therapy, the number of complications in patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS) has diminished significantly. However, ACS patients are still routinely admitted to units with high-level monitoring such as the coronary or intensive care unit (CCU/ICU). The cost of these admissions is high and there is often a shortage of beds. The aim o
This work presents an assessment of the precipitation deficit in the São Francisco River Basin (SFRB) based on temporal, seasonal and regional analyses of two decades of precipitation data products derived from satellite missions launched since 1997. The temporal analyses were performed by means of three 3-month SPI time series, consisting of 250 values each derived from TRMM, CHIRPS and PERSIANN-
Geopolitical, health and economic events have led to an accumulated surge in energy prices in the UK at the beginning of the 2020s. In response, studies and media reports show that households have had to reduce the running of their heating systems to cut their energy bills. However, there is limited research on the impact of this context on indoor thermal conditions and occupants’ ability to meet
Despite the increasing recognition of the critical role that nature-based solutions (NBS) play in urban resilience, decision-makers in many cities across the Global South continue to prioritize grey infrastructure and engineered solutions. This prevailing approach may offer short-term economic advantages but ultimately falls short in ensuring the long-term sustainability and resilience of communit
Irene Mittelberg (HumTec, RWTH Aachen University) Experiential essence: Image schemata and force dynamics as mediating structures in artworks and their gestural enactments Confronting static works of art and dynamic gestural action, this talk explores the role of embodied conceptual structures as cognitive semiotic principles guiding the formation and interpretation of visual and bodily signs.

Probing molecules using perdeuteration (i.e deuteration in which all hydrogen atoms are replaced by deuterium) is extremely useful in a wide range of biophysical techniques. In the case of lipids, the synthesis of the biologically relevant unsaturated perdeuterated lipids is challenging and not usually pursued. In this work, perdeuterated phospholipids and sterols from the yeast Pichia pastoris gr
Wheat (Triticum spp.) histones H1, H2, H3, and H4 were extracted, and H1 was further purified. The effect of these histones on specific fungi that may or may not be pathogenic to wheat was determined. These fungi included Aspergillus flavus, Aspergillus fumigatus, Aspergillus niger, Fusarium oxysporum, Fusarium verticillioides, Fusarium solani, Fusarium graminearum, Penicillium digitatum, Penicill
Problemformulering: Hur ser IGS strategiska process ut och vilken strategisk position har de idag? Hur påverkas företaget av en föränderlig omvärld? Syfte: Utredningens syfte är att studera och analysera IGS strategiska process samt undersöka hur applicerbara de tre strategiska synsätten är på fallföretaget ifråga. Vi har även för avsikt att se hur stor effekt den föränderliga omvärlden har på för
After a brief outlook on the field of concatenative synthesis of singing, with emphasis on the differences in comparison to synthesis of speech, the present paper gives an overview of a simple system for singing synthesis in Swedish based on concatenation of diphones. The system, called Burcas, accepts as input a text file for lyrics, from which it extracts a target phoneme sequence using basic le
In 1994, Rwanda was a country ravaged by ethnic violence of an incomprehensible scale as 800,000 people were killed within 100 days. Whilst the abhorrent events of Rwanda’s genocide lack justification, the genocide marked a turning point for women’s position in this traditionally patriarchal society. In this post-conflict context, this study investigates adults’ perceptions of the gendered divisio
Using correlated ab initio methods, the polarizability of large [4n + 2]-annulenes is determined, showing that there exists an almost linear relation between the exaltation of magnetic susceptibility (a measure of aromaticity) and an equivalent enlargement of polarizability.
Numerous economic recovery packages have been implemented to stimulate green economic growth through the deployment of low-carbon technologies. The emerging literature shows, however, that there is substantial ambiguity and discrepancy about how to measure the performance of policy instruments driving a Green Economy in general, and in our case, a Green Energy Economy (GEE) in particular. Identifi
