I argue that reception history can have a, limited but important, role to play as tie- breaker in the evaluation of reconstructions of historical philosophical arguments and positions. In an effort to exemplify the proposed methodology I argue that Lisa Shapiro’s rational reconstruction of Descartes’s provisional moral code in terms of a broad conception of morality supplies us with an interpretat
A finite element method is developed for the study of elastic wave propagation in layered ground environments. The formulation is based on a spectral finite-element approach using a mixture of high-order element shape functions and wave solutions. The numerical method provides solutions to vibration transmission on and within layered elastic waveguides. Examples of its use include the theoretical
The Supreme Leader of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Ali Khamenei, is 81 years old and reportedly in declining health. The question of the succession will be decided by the regime’s Assembly of Experts, who will choose the new Supreme Leader following Khamenei’s death. Six individuals have emerged as possible successors.
Multiple missiles were fired at Erbil on February 15, killing at least one civil contractor and injuring at least one American national. It is likely that the attack was conducted by an Iranian proxy in order to put pressure on President Biden to lift the sanctions against the country and return to the 2015 nuclear deal.
As the introductory chapter sets out, this volume critically interrogates the EU as a global actor and its normative power in global politics as part of the 2013 European Research Day of the Centre for European Research at Gothenburg University. This chapter will conclude this interrogation by providing a Copenhagen reflection on the EU as a global actor within the context of the Normative Power A
Nils-Eric Sahlin och Sylvia Schwaag Serger diskuterar i kapitel tre hur forskare har interagerat med beslutsfattare under krisen och presenterar principer som syftar till att förbättra samspelet mellan vetenskap och politik.
This paper addresses the influence of deteriorating structural system characteristics on the value of structural health monitoring (SHM) before its implementation. The value of SHM is calculated within a recently developed framework utilizing the Bayesian pre-posterior decision analysis modelling the structural system performance, the integrity management, the structural risks and the SHM informat
In this article, the concept of the employer is analysed for Swedish conditions from a variety of perspectives. The special difficulties that face the private sector are charted, as are the principles of the legal subject in triparty contracts with temporary employment agencies, platform work, and umbrella companies. Found to go hand in hand with the concept of employee, the concept of the employe
Background: In this paper, we share our experiences of using ‘photovoice’ methodology as a way to generate data in intensive care units concerning the place and space of care. We have adapted and modified ‘photovoice’ in researching people's lived experiences of ICU. Researching lived experiences in an intensive care context is challenging because of the complex nature of critical care. Aim: This
Jordens inträde i antropocen har lett till att historievetenskapens traditionella motsättningar mellan natur och kultur, samt den mänskliga historiens tid och geologisk tid har börjat ifrågasättas. Hur står sig historievetenskapens traditionella syften och metoder i förhållande till den pågående omförhandlingen mellan historiografi och naturalism?
Gas turbine systems are predominantly designed to be fuelled with gaseous fuels within a limited Wobbe index range (typically HHV=45-55 MJ/Nm3 or 1200-1480 Btu/scf). When low calorific fuel gases are fired, the engine will be forced to operate outside its design envelope. The added mass flow will typically raise the cycle pressure ratio and in two-shaft designs also raise the gas generator shaft s
