Recent years has seen an unprecedented growth in emerging technologies like Additive manufacturing (AM), augmenting the manufacturing capabilities through a multitude of opportunities while also introducing unique constraints, such as support structures, and post-processing requirements. Taking full advantage of the potential of AM demands product designs to be optimised for both opportunities and

This article suggests a model for lexical verb semantics that unifies Halliday’s model for transitivity with Langacker’s concept of base and profile and also with a model for situation type (cf. Smith 1997). It is claimed that verbs adhere to one of four macro domains: the material, the social, the mental or the relational domain. Within these domains there are numerous types of verbs, such as mot

Trust is an important aspect of learning. However, there is little published research on how students perceive its value. In this article, we report on engineering students’ perceptions of the role of trust in their learning and their experiences of what teachers do in their courses that builds trust. Nine students participated in semi-structured interviews and 477 student replies to a survey sent

The focus of this chapter is the conversations with parents that were conducted during the project "Opportunities for preschool in a migrating world". The background for the conversations with parents lies in the preschool staff's perception that what makes their particular approach unique and valuable depends on the time and care they put into contact with the parents. Several aspects of the sect

Baserat på fullständiga sammanställningar av subskriptionerne på 2 Timoteusbrevet i 485 grekiska manuskript, presenterar denna studie texttraditionen och utvecklingen av dessa subskriptioner och förklarar deras förhållande till andra subskriptioner, paratexter, de interna material i 1–2 Timoteus, Apostlagärningarna och det bredare. kyrkohistoria. Studien spårar källan/källorna bakom traditionen atBased on full collations of the subscriptions to 2 Timothy in 485 Greek manuscripts, this study presents the textual tradition and development of these subscriptions and explains their relationship to other subscriptions, paratexts, the internal evidence in 1–2 Timothy, Acts, and the wider church history. The study tracks the source(s) behind the tradition that the letter was sent to Timothy, inst

Model tests have shown that by building a shallow dam at the outlet the discharge from the upper reservoir can be distributed over such a large width that the kinetic energy is dissipated before the flow reaches levels deeper than 10 m. Since the summer thermocline is situated at 15 m and the epilimnion is homothermal the discharge does not affect the thermal stratification of the lake during the

The European Green Deal states that greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions should be reduced by at least 50% by 2030, and that there should be no net GHG emissions by 2050. The energy sector is a key in this transformation, and energy communities can as accelerators of transitionsKey findings:•Future scenarios outline a decentralized energy system in which smaller generation units have become more economi

Radiation protection professionals are engaged in risk communication with various stakeholders to contribute to risk awareness, trust building, informed risk decisions, and advice for action. The newly launched IRPA guideline on risk communication has the objective to enthuse communication on radiation protection and provide experiences and techniques regarding this task. However, radiation protec

CONTEXT: As part of a broader institutional initiative, the serious illness care program was implemented in a multi-site academic primary care practice. After 2 years, a minority was observed to be documenting serious illness conversations routinely.OBJECTIVES: We aimed to learn about the motivations and actions of clinicians who routinely conducted and documented serious illness conversations.MET

Research on business models for sustainability (BMfS) has primarily focused on the conceptual aspects and sustainability potential of BMfS rather than their actual impact. There is a need to understand whether BMfS have less environmental impact on society than conventional business models and in what context and conditions they can reduce impact. This research conducted a systematic literature re

We investigate how the anchoring effect—a well-established cognitive bias—influences the full distribution of subjective beliefs. While prior research extensively examines the impact of anchoring and other biases on point estimates, their effect on higher moments of the distribution remains unexplored. Through a pre-registered online experiment (N=732), we find that anchoring impacts the mean, var

This paper is based on a study where four go-along interviews with a total of sixteen participants were conducted in three Swedish cities. The purpose of this study was to find out how different aspects and qualities of the built environment affected different persons in terms of experiences of inclusion and exclusion and strategies used to deal with obstacles in the environment. The study highlig

Syfte Uppsatsens syfte var att undersöka om och i så fall hur sångintervention i klassrummet ger effekter på den språkliga förmågan, närmare bestämt på förståelse och produktion av berättelser, hos elever i årskurs 2. Metod Deltagare i studien var 66 elever i årskurs 2 från två olika skolor, fördelade på två grupper A och B. Sångintervention gavs fyra gånger i veckan i 5 veckor och data samlades iPurpose The aim of this paper was to investigate if and how song intervention in the classroom has an effect on narrative comprehension and production in Primary school students (2nd grade). Method Sixty-six 2nd grade students from two different schools, divided into two groups, A and B, participated. Song intervention was carried out four times a week for five weeks. Data was collected at three t

Soils provide the foundation for human well-being but are increasingly degrading from land use change or types of intensive land use like agriculture. In Europe, soil natural capital is degrading over time and space because of compaction, erosion, and the loss of organic matter. This trend diminishes the soil’s ability to sustain a flow of ecosystem services, which are valuable to human well-being

Education for sustainability (EfS) has been regarded a promising approach for solving sustainability challenges. Results have been unsatisfying due to a knowledge-dissemination focus in the formal sector. Reasons are economic and political interests shaping formal education. Therefore, hopes are placed in the non-formal sector to close this knowledge-to-action gap. In this case study, I aim to und

Sedan 2015 har Sverige en uttalat feministisk utrikespolitik, med målet att ett genusperspektiv ska genomsyra all politisk verksamhet. Parallellt med denna nya politiska inriktning fortsätter Sverige att exportera krigsmateriel till icke-demokratiska och konfliktdrabbade stater, något som har gett upphov till kritik. Genom att granska den statliga myndighet som ansvarar för beslut om krigsmateriel

An efficient method for selective alpha-alkylation of ketones with alcohols was developed using 2-hydroxypyridine-based ligands coordinated by palladium as pre-catalysts. The reactions were performed without additional additives under mild reaction conditions. The method is environmentally friendly to build C-C bond as water is the only byproduct. This tandem reaction proceeds via dehydrogenation
