Husserlian phenomenological theory is offered as an integrated and integrating for an understanding of management decision making and related issues in work and organizational sciences. The aspects of meaning, meaning constitution, subjective processes, and perspectives, mutual understanding of each other´s perspective, individuals as horizons of possible worlds are central to this conception, mak

This paper presents a sensitivity analysis of unsteady-state SOFC-GT-HS operation based on two different characteristic maps of centrifugal compressor taken from open literature and scaled by the law of similitude to match the design point of the Hybrid System. The system layout under investigation is a pressurised type comprising a low and high temperature recuperator. Computations are based on a

With the recent expansions of the European Union, there are now 12 new member states that are implementing European policy. One of these policies, with implications for energy production and security, is the Common Agricultural Policy. This article will focus on the impact the Common Agricultural Policy can have on farmers in Poland who have been encouraged by calls to cultivate energy crops. In a

Customer service plays an important role for the competitive strength in the market place. Customer service is however also a concern on the supply side of the company in the sense that assessing, selecting and developing suppliers to improve their customer service can make them contributing to the competitiveness of the company. It is from the latter perspective that this research has been carrie

This paper reports on research to estimate leaf area index (LAI) in Swedish forests with satellite sensor data. The study is part of a research programme that aims at generating input data for process-oriented forest carbon models. Field-work was carried out in two areas in Sweden about 530 km apart, in the nemoral and boreo-nemoral forest regions. Various ways of estimating LAI in the field were

PURPOSE: The early loss of a parent is a tragedy and a serious life event. This study investigated grief resolution and morbidity in cancer-bereaved teenagers 6 to 9 years after the loss of a parent to cancer. METHODS: In a nationwide population-based study of 622 of 851 (73 %) youths who as teenagers 6 to 9 years earlier had lost a parent to cancer, we explored the magnitude of unresolved grief a

This paper is based on outcomes from SID (http://sid.desiign.org), a three-year project where twenty-four children with profound intellectual disabilities visited three MSE centres. SID's aim was to develop and demonstrate the potentials of interactive design in and for MSE practices together with the children and the pedagogical staff. In the project, we developed artefacts that were designed to

MATLAB and its companion product Simulink are commonly used tools insystems modelling and other scientific disciplines. A cross-disciplinaryintegrated MATLAB model is used to study the overall performance of theproposed 50m optical and infrared telescope, Euro50. However thecomputational requirements of this kind of end-to-end simulation of thetelescope's behaviour, exceeds the capability of an in

Popular Abstract in Swedish Den här avhandlingen behandlar hur fettdroppar i mjölk slås sönder i en mjölkhomogenisator. Mekanismerna bakom sönderslagningen har analyserats genom uppmätning av flödesfältet i spalten samt genom att fotografera dropparna, när de slås sönder. För att möjliggöra mätning och fotografering har två skalmodeller av en homogenisator tagits fram. En fullskalemodell, vilken The overall aim of this project was to investigate the drop break-up process in milk homogenisers. This was done by measurements and calculations of the flow fields in the gap region and by visualisation of drops being broken up. To make visualisation and measurements possible, two scale models of a homogeniser gap were developed. The full-scale model was a direct copy of the gap in a production-

At the end of the 19th century, Wilhelm Windelband proposed a distinction between nomothetic and idiographic re-search, which became highly relevant for the discussion of the nature of psychological science. During the 20th cen-tury, a number of writers (including William Stern, Gordon Allport, James Lamiell and David Magnusson) have criti-cized the focus on variables rather than persons, and popu

Vid all skärande bearbetning bildas spånor som en biprodukt. Mängden spånor varierar beroende på hur arbetsstycket och slutprodukten ser ut. I vissa fall är det 70-80 % av utgångsmaterialet som omvandlas till spån under förädlingen. Skärspånen måste återvinnas på något sätt och det vanligaste sättet att återvinna materialet är att skicka tillbaka restprodukten till leverantören som smälter ner det

Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning: Dynamiken och mönstret under Weichselisens, dvs den senaste inlandsisens, deglaciationsfas är inte bara studieobjekt i Skandinavien utan även på andra sidan Östersjön, i nordöstra Tyskland och Polen. Vid geologiska institutionen drivs NFR (Naturvetenskapliga forskningsrådet)-projektet ”Anomala isrörelser i NV Polen och NÖ Tyskland under Weichselisens avsmältningCoastal cliffs on the southern coast of Greifswalder Bodden, NE Germany, has been studied in detail at representative sections by means of lithological and structural mapping, clast fabric analyses and sampling for grain size distribution and rock composition analyses. Three genetically different diamict units (I, II and III) were distinguished. Unit I and II consists of mainly massive, sandy diam

Genom EU-domstolens banbrytande avgörande i UsedSoft 2012 bekräftades att konsumtion av spridningsrätten kan ske till digitala kopior av datorprogram, förutsatt att kraven för en ”första försäljning” enligt artikel 4.2 dator-programdirektivet uppfylls. Domen innebar slutpunkten för den vedertagna uppfattningen att spridning av digitala verk ska klassificeras som tjänster, för vilka konsumtionsprinIn 2012, the CJEU confirmed in the landmark UsedSoft case, that the right of distribution right in regards to digital copies of computer program can be exhausted, provided that the requirements for a “first sale” according to Article 4.2 of the Software Directive is met. The ruling put an end to a previous ion that the distribution of digital copies of copyrighted works is considered as a service

Nuvarande forskning om sexuella övergrepp i syskonrelation saknar familjens röst. Syftet med denna studie är att lyssna på föräldrars berättelser om hur familjen uppfattat, begripliggjort och hanterat sin situation sedan sexuella syskonövergrepp avslöjats. Vi mötte fem föräldrar med sådan erfarenhet för semistrukturerade intervjuer med öppna frågor, transkriberade i helhet och analyserade med inteThere is a lack of understanding what happens to and within a family after a disclosure of sibling sexual abuse. The aim was to study the unique experience of parents who experienced this kind of disclosure. We interviewed five parents using semi-structured interviews with open-ended questions. The interview was transcribed in whole and analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis. Six
