Competing Institutional Logics in Diaconal Work “Institutional logics” is a concept within the context of institutional theory. Institutions can be defined as patterns of activity rooted in material practices and symbolic systems. These institutional orders are all shaped by the history and each of them has a central logic that guides its organizing principles. The institutional logic provides

Denna artikel beskriver den bokutgivning som skedde inom ramen för tidskriften Zenit mellan åren 1968 och 1982. Zenit gav ut böcker i egen regi men redigerade också tre bokserier på Bo Cavefors förlag(två st.) och på Raben & Sjögren (1). Böckerna gavs typografisk form av Leif Thollander. Tidskriftens Zenits bakgrund i den ""nya vänstern"" skisseras. Bokutgivningens innehåll och karaktär beskri

Purpose: The study aims to focus on rotation effects on a ribbed channel of gas turbine blades for internal cooling. The combination and interaction between secondary flows generated by angled rib geometry and Coriolis forces in the rotating channel are studied numerically. Design/methodology/approach: A radially outward flow passage as an internal cooling test model with and without ribs is used

In this paper, we will present some of our findings from a study conducted on legislative measures related to the online infringement of intellectual property rights commissioned by the European Union Intellectual Property Office (EUIPO) on legislative measures related to online intellectual property rights infringements. The present summarizes the mapping the existing legislative national measure

We demonstrate fluidics realized in thin film plastic foils patterned using roll-toroll nanoimprinting lithography (rrNIL). Realizing fluidics devices in thin plastic foils opens up for parallel operation in stacked devices. It also provides a convenient format for storage and distribution of the devices.

We present experimental results and simulations on a simple method for tunable particle separation based on a combination of Deterministic Lateral Displacement (DLD) and Insulator Based Dielectrophoresis (I-DEP). Rather than deriving its tunability from its elastic properties[1], our present device uses an applied AC field to perturb the particle trajectories in the pressure-driven flow and is the

The local alignment of DNA stretched in nanofluidic channels is measured using polarization sensitive detection. With increased degree of stretching the polarization anisotropy increases both in the deGennes and the Odijk regime. The technique is expected to find use in studies of, for example, local conformational changes in polymer physics in confined spaces, studies of protein-DNA interactions

Under 2012–2014 organiserade VIWAFU, ett nätverk för internationellt och interdisciplinärt forskarsamarbete i Norden och Baltikum, fyra seminarier för master-studenter, doktorander och post-docs. Var och ett av seminarierna hade ett tema, t.ex. VA-branschens reglering och styrning, infrastruktur för dricksvatten, innovativ utveckling inom kommunala vattenfrågor samt vattenhantering i turistområdenViable Water Management and Governance for Futures (VIWAFU), a professional network for international and interdisciplinary collaboration amongst researchers from the Nordic and Baltic countries, was built for providing and sharing knowledge on water management and governance for future policy and decision making during the years 2012–2014. VIWAFU organized four workshops for MSc students, PhD stu

The objective was to investigate if diffusing laser fibres can be modelled as conductive heat sources without miscalculating coagulated volumes, and if finite element analysis, disregarding light transport, may be used for three dimensional (3D) treatment planning in interstitial laser thermotherapy (ILT). Temperature distributions and coagulated volumes with a diffusing laser fibre, as compared t

Many businesses still put too much focus on manufacturing, marketing and sales without considering the inter-linkages amongst these elements. This paper shows the importance of including packaging logistics and supply chain management in strategic planning. By integrating these aspects, retailers and suppliers may reduce costs, environmental impact and increase profits. A case study at IKEA is use

Even though language proficiency in children is strongly related to success in almost all domains, neurocognitive studies of L2 processing are typically limited to adults with several years of exposure, who may use general cognitive mechanisms to compensate for any difficulties in L2 processing. For example, whereas previous studies of adult bilinguals have reported differences in the anterior neg
