This research systematically mapped the relationship between political ideology and receptivity to pseudo-profound bullshit—that is, obscure sentences constructed to impress others rather than convey truth. Among Swedish adults (N = 985), bullshit receptivity was (a) robustly positively associated with socially conservative (vs. liberal) self-placement, resistance to change, and particularly bindi
En forskare som arbetar i fält kommer inte undan frågeställningar som den praktiknära forskningen genererar. Riter följer inte alltid klockrent den föreskrivna liturgin. Gamla traditioner blandas upp med nya inslag där samhällsförändringar, modernitet och kultur tillsammans regisserar den performance som för tillfället spelas upp av deltagarna. Makt kan befästas eller kullkastas, eller så kan delt
A typical polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEFC) flow field consists of micro/minichannels. The continues removal of liquid water from the cathode channels is a critical topic, as water droplets forming in the channels may block the transport of gaseous oxygen to the active sites, which not only gives an uneven current distribution and substantial loss of performance, but also, increases degradation
In this paper, two distinct polymer electrolyte fuel cell stack models are constructed: a detailed numerical model (DNM) employing a fine-scale computational mesh and a coarse-mesh approach based on a distributed resistance analogy (DRA) where diffusion terms in the transport equations are replaced by rate terms. Both methods are applied to a 5-cell, high-temperature polymer electrolyte fuel cell
We develop a simulation method for Markov Jump processes with finite time steps based in a quasilinear approximation of the process and in multinomial random deviates. The second order approximation to the generating function, Error$=O(dt^{2})$, is developed in detailand an algorithm is presented. The algorithm is implemented for a Susceptible-Infected-Recovered-Susceptible (SIRS) epidemic model a
Restaurangen är en yngling, historiskt sett - den kommer från franskt 1700-tal. Men att äta och dricka på lokal, mot betalning, har svenskar gjort långt innan restaurangen blev populär: så snart det område som skulle bli Sverige började enas och kristnas blev behovet av sådana platser en viktig angelägenhet, både från kungligt och kyrkligt håll. Från medeltidens ölbodar och tavernor, via stormakts
Detta kapitel handlar om marknadskrafter och hur dessa kan användas av offentliga myndigheter, medvetet och effektivt, till gagn för medborgarna och skattebetalarna. Ämnet har i många avseenden blivit politiskt. Marknaden har för en del blivit en frälsning, för andra en förbannelse. Det saknas entydiga empiriska belägg för att en fri marknad genererar ökat välstånd, en avsaknad som effektivt hålle
A dermal sling (DS) is used to cover the implant with two layers of tissue when immediate breast reconstruction is performed in women with large and ptotic breasts. It works as an autologous acellular dermal matrix/mesh that can be used to control the implant pocket and inframammary fold, without inferring an extra foreign material and higher costs. There is relatively little published about the D

Some representative results from modeling and identification experiments on the Halden boiling water reactor (HBWR) in Norway are presented in this chapter. Linear input–output models, as well as time invariant and time variable linear state models, have been used as model structures. The chapter describes the different phases of identification and modeling of a complex dynamical system. Different
