Biomass is often viewed as a primitive source of energy that needs to be modernized. However, itis unlikely that preferred modern energy sources will displace traditional biomass-based energyin the near term, especially in rural Africa and southeast Asia (FAO 2017). Demand for sustainablysourced biomass is likely to increase as the world moves away from fossil fuel dependence andtransitions to sus
This chapter seeks to explore the intersections between occupational cultures, bystanders, and social justice and inclusion based on the empirical example of policing. Specifically, we pursue the question: what is the role of police officers as bystanders to occupational police culture and how does that influence inclusion? Against the backdrop of occupational culture, we put forth four key aspect
In this paper, we recall Lepowsky's and Wakimoto's product character formulas formulated in a new way by using arrays of specialized weighted crystals of negative roots for affine Lie algebras of type Cl(1), Dl+1(2) and A2l(2). Lepowsky–Wakimoto's infinite periodic products appear as one side of (conjectured) Rogers–Ramanujan-type combinatorial identities for affine Lie algebras of type Cl(1).
Background: Biologic effectiveness is often assessed as response, a term that eludes consistent definition. Identifying those most likely to respond in real-life has proven challenging. Objective: To explore definitions of biologic responders in adults with severe asthma and investigate patient characteristics associated with biologic response. Methods: This was a longitudinal cohort study using d
This is the second article in the psychological elements of palliative care (PEPC) series. This series focuses on how key concepts from psychotherapy can be used in the context of palliative care to improve communication and fine tune palliative care interventions. In this article, we introduce two foundational concepts: frame and formulation. The frame is the context in which care is delivered; i
Ex-situ Raman spectroscopy is a well-established method for the structural characterization of soot but necessitates a sampling step before analysis is made. This work studied the potential to perform Raman spectroscopic measurements of soot directly in the combustion exhaust gases, i.e., online Raman measurements. Two types of soot were produced from a Mini-CAST soot generator, one immature with
There are many explanations for the so-called rigor-relevance gap in academic research on strategic management. This Element reviews the existing literature on the matter and argues that it must go beyond the typical explanations of knowledge and language differences and look at more fundamental, societal, and cultural explanations. The empirical focus of this Element is the history and possible p
Cellular-based localization and sensing pave the way for a variety ofapplications across various domains, ranging from autonomous driv-ing to emergency care and intelligent traffic management. Althoughtraditional methods have been effective, they still face challenges such as therequirement for highly accurate models and the inherent complexity of thealgorithms. This thesis explores the potential
High-order harmonic generation (HHG) supplies extreme ultraviolet (XUV) radiation with attosecond pulse duration for a wide variety of applications from fundamental research to industry. As HHG is a very inefficient process, enhancing the XUV flux is of great interest. Hereby, either the HHG process itself or the laser which is the primary driver of HHG can be optimized.Currently, the technology i
Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have been widely used in both military and civilian applications, where a stable communication link is vital for safe flight control and robust data transmission. To develop a reliable UAV communication system, it is necessary to deeply understand the UAV channel characteristics and establish accurate channel models. Channel sounding is the most effective way to obt
Electrons from a laser wakefield accelerator have a limited energy gain due to dephasing and are prone to emittance growth, causing a large divergence. In this paper, we experimentally show that adjusting the plasma density profile can address both issues. Shock-assisted ionisation injection is used to produce 100 MeV quasi-monoenergetic electron bunches in the primary part of the accelerator. Dow
Objectives: This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:. To assess the benefits and harms of vestibular stimulation compared to standard care or non-vestibular stimulation for physical and neurological development in preterm infants. To assess whether the effects of vestibular stimulation differ according to gestational age at birth; the type, frequency,
for clarinet, bassoon, horn and trumpetImpossible colors is not a hypothesis, but rather more hyperbole. In this musical piece "impossible colors" refer to illusions of timbre in sound, not vision. Impossible colors are colors that we do not normally see; that some fictional colors are beyond the functional perceptual space of humans. Some theories looking at forbidden colors, borrowed from color
This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows: To assess the benefits and harms of infant positioning, nesting, and swaddling for promoting development and preventing morbidity in preterm infants.
Objectives: This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:. To assess the benefits and harms of multisensory stimulation compared to any single sensory intervention or standard care for physical and neurological development in preterm infants.
Objectives: This is a protocol for a Cochrane Review (intervention). The objectives are as follows:. To evaluate the benefits and harms of olfactory stimulation with different odorants in the NICU for promoting development and preventing morbidity in preterm infants.
