How to feed the world is a vigorously debated question, but the extent to which possible solutions receive attention in the scientific literature has not been studied. Using textual analysis, we analyse 12,640 research articles to quantify how this discourse evolved over the last 50 years, distinguishing between a focus on three potential levers: total food production, per capita food demand, and
This presentation builds on several ethnographic fieldworks (2011-2015) in southern Sweden on people who have Palestinian background as well as my on-going informal involvement with Palestinian networks. The field material includes about 35 qualitative interviews, numerous informal discussions and participant observations of political events (mostly demonstrations and lectures) and people’s daily
A bidirectional algorithm for computing spectral coefficients of convolutional and tailbiting codes is presented and used to obtain new codes.
BACKGROUND: The Big Five traits (i.e., openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness, and neuroticism: OCEAN) have been suggested to provide a meaningful taxonomy for studying the Dark Triad: Machiavellianism, narcissism, and psychopathy. Nevertheless, current research consists of mixed and inconsistent associations between the Dark Triad and OCEAN. Here we used the Dark Cube (Garcia &a
Global warming and an increasing population needing more buildings are important issues ahead. Hence, Net ZEBs and green buildings is one of many necessary measures for climate change mitigation. Some studies indicate that improved energy and/or green performance in these buildings may not be profitable. However, a short time perspective and narrow concept for evaluation may be wrong. This study p
The aim of this thesis was to evaluate influencing parameters of extraction through polymers and find effective extraction methods. A second purpose was to compare differences and similarities of various polymers consisting of Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) when extracted with identical parameters. Vaginal rings made of EVA which were loaded with active substance were used for the study. The rings a
