Policy (or political) entrepreneurship (PE) is an actor-based framework to examine and understand policy change. Rooted in Kingdon’s (1984/2003) Multiple Streams approach (MSA), the policy entrepreneur is defined as “a special kind of actor, embedded in the sociopolitical fabric, who is alert to opportunities and acts upon them; he or she amasses coalitions for the purpose of effecting change in
In this study we describe combustion simulations of a single sector and a fully annular generic multi-burner aero-engine combustor. The objectives are to facilitate the understanding of the flow, mixing and combustion processes to help improve the combustor design and the design process, as well as to show that it is now feasible to perform high-fidelity reacting flow simulations of full annular g
Soils are continuously exposed to cycles of drying and rewetting (D/RW), which drive pronounced fluctuations in soil carbon (C) fluxes. These C dynamics are characterized by a decoupled behavior between microbial biomass synthesis (growth) and CO2 production (respiration). In general, respiration rates peak shortly after RW and subsequently decrease, while the growth peaks lag several hours behind
A human molecular chaperone protein, DnaJ heat shock protein family (Hsp40) member B6 (DNAJB6), efficiently inhibits amyloid aggregation. This inhibition depends on a unique motif with conserved serine and threonine (S/T) residues that have a high capacity for hydrogen bonding. Global analysis of kinetics data has previously shown that DNAJB6 especially inhibits the primary nucleation pathways. Th
Objective: Infections in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) have been thoroughly investigated in the setting of clinical trials and single-center studies. However, large cohort studies on real-world data and studies on temporal trends are lacking. We performed a nationwide study on serious bacterial infections in CLL. Methods: Using high-quality Swedish government-based registries, 13 009 CLL pati
A small bedrock ridge called Cuff Cape, protruding from an ice field in the inner part of Granite Harbour, Victoria Land, Antarctica, carries a system of moraine ridges. Cuff Cape was during deglaciation bounded to the south by a terrestrial, slow-retreat ice margin and towards the north and west by a faster-retreat, marine-based ice margin. Based on studies of contemporary processes along the pre
In a learning situation, feedback is of great importance in order to help a student to correct a possible misconception. However, previous research shows that many students tend to avoid feedback regarding failures, including critical constructive feedback (CCF) that is intended to support and guide them. This is especially true for lower-achieving students, who might perceive feedback as an ego-t
Ground improvement with lime-cement pillars is becoming increasingly common in the Nordic countries for exploitation of areas with poor stability. However, there is a need for non-destructive methods for volumetric quality control of the ground improvement. The quality control can be divided into two steps where the first include quality control at the installation process with monitoring of produ
This paper summarizes the experimental and numerical investigations on an innovative hybrid joint for timber structures. A total of 12 hybrid dowel and bonding steel plate joints divided in four subgroups were investigated. Different parameters such as the presence of self-tapping screws and the surface treatment of the bonding steel plate, were studied. For two subgroups, a vulcanized rubber laye
In the latest World Tourism Barometer, UNWTO (2020) predicts that global tourism could decline by up to 80% this year. While many tourism-dependent economies in Europe are currently suffering from under-tourism, the heated debate between tourism developers and local stakeholders about adverse impacts of over-tourism is likely to reignite even stronger once the inrush of tourists returns. As a resu
