This qualitative case study provides a communication-driven perspective into the functioning of teleworking in the post-Covid Danish work society. Teleworking, performing office work outside of the conventional office space by using ICTs, became part of the modern-day work arrangement of many employees, mainly due to the severe effects of the Covid-19 pandemic on the world economy. This study’s ai

E-Poster, 2 minute presentation Abstract: Introduction: The tool Assessment of Learning Process (ALP) is to a high extent based on findings from the research project Driving to Learn (1993-2007), and collaboration with Durkin (2009-2016) and Kenyon (2020 -). The eight-phase ALP-Instrument is used to assess tool-use understanding across the full lifespan. Participants and Methods: Classic grounded

Purpose: With increasing obesity rates and the change of beauty ideals within society, the plus-size fashion market currently enjoys a massive upturn and many established fashion retailers realise the opportunities within this ever more important segment. However, the integration of plus-size brands can be challenging as being plus-size is still connected to a stigma. Therefore, it is surprising t

Structural components such as those used in gas turbines for energy conversion applications, are subjected to high loads at elevated temperatures. In order to ensure that the components survive under these conditions for a sufficiently long time, it is imperative to select materials with good high temperature properties like strength and corrosion resistance. Such materials are usually alloys with

Reconciliation research consists of two practices, one focusing on the emotional and healing aspects of the process and another that focus on the political and legal actions. Yeudith Auerbach created a theory, the reconciliation pyramid, which aims to manage both aspects. The purpose of this thesis is to apply Auerbach's theory to the reconciliation process in two empirical cases, the Rwandan

Conservation efforts for the Pied Tamarin in urban Manaus, Brazil One of the Amazons most endangered species is the small New World primate, ´pied tamarin´ (Saguinus bicolor). The species only occurs in the vicinity of the Brazilian Amazonas state capital city Manaus, where greatly scattered and fragmented small patches of highly degraded forest remain. The on-going growth of Manaus urban area hOne of the Amazon´s most endangered species is the small New World primate, ´pied tamarin´ (Saguinus bicolor). The species only occurs in the vicinity of the Brazilian Amazonas state capital city Manaus, where greatly scattered and fragmented small patches of highly degraded forest remain. The on-going growth of Manaus urban area has created habitat fragments where the pied tamarins now try to per

The international relations has been marked with the increased intra state ethnic conflicts which are able to cause huge humanitarian disasters and harbour instability and various threats for the international community. As a result, conflict resolution as a long term process combining social, economic and political levels and activities concerning structural change has been advocated in recent ye

The Permanent Establishment (PE) concept plays a key role in the distribution of taxing rights between States by determining when the profits derived by an entity are taxable in a State other than the State of its residency. This concept, originally, evidenced the existence of sufficient economic allegiances between a non-resident entity and a State to justify taxation therein. However, the evolut

The progression of fire safety research has contributed to improving the guiding principles of standardised building design. Research making use of pure materials, once common in homes and workplaces, are less relevant as such materials are no longer as prevalent. It is often newer, composite materials that are featured more prominently in building contents. The trend towards the evolution of commIt is widely accepted that by lowering the oxygen concentration below that of the typical ambient conditions (21% Oxygen) fuels are less likely to ignite and will burn slower. ORS (Oxygen Reduction Systems) make use of this to protect their contents. The oxygen concentration in these systems is done by introducing a flow rate containing a higher percentage of nitrogen into the protected area. The

In this report the function of an eccentric drive (Cyclo Drive) is evaluated. The drive transfers torque between two parallel axes. The eccentric drive is used in a differential in an all-wheel drive system made by BorgWarner. The purpose of the Cyclo Drive is to transfer torque between two parallel-displaced axles without eccentric rotation. The mechanism consists of three discs with the middle

Introduction: The development and optimization of methods for multi-radionuclide measurements in preclinical in vivo and ex vivo SPECT imaging could potentially improve studies in which more than one pharmaceutical is being investigated. The aim of this study is to quantitatively compare and evaluate different methods for these types of measurements using three different modalities – a small anima

Phosphorus magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P NMR) is a non-invasive technique for determining concentrations of intracellular metabolites linked to energy metabolism of human tissues. Inorganic phosphate (Pi) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) are found in most tis-sues, while tissue specific metabolites such as creatine phosphate (PCr) and metabolites linked to lipid metabolism can be observed i

CSR has been gaining significance in the field of strategic management, as growing societal expectations have resulted in additional pressures for firms to act responsibly. Particularly the heightened sense of urgency regarding environmental sustainability has further amplified this development. Simultaneously, the global business landscape is changing at an accelerated pace and in an unprecedente

The problem of windfall has recently become more and more frequent in marine insurance. The solution to the problem would affect both international business and the insurance industry. The Marine Insurance Act 1906 has not specified clearly about the solution; relevant English cases seem to render different decisions as to the payment recovered from the third party. The problem is caused by the co

Product integrity depends on the way the package is handled and transported; therefore packaging has a big impact on logistics, costs and efficiency along the entire distribution chain. Damaged or leaking packages are the result of an inconvenient distribution, and lead to product waste and a negative image of the brands involved. Even though Tetra Pak gives guidelines and recommendations concerni

This abstract is an outline for a talk on the Sovereign in times of war, occupation and post war legal (re)construction. The example to be investigated is the U.S.-led invasion and subsequent occupation of Iraq in 2003 and the following years, and the process of creating a constitution for Iraq during this time period. The issue of sovereignty in the process of constitution making during war and
