Background: Despite the rapid pace of assistive robotics development, adoption of these has been limited. This raises questions such as: What contributes to this low uptake? What strategies could be employed to increase uptake? What guidance can be found in the literature to inform alternative approaches or directions for development?Objective: This critical narrative review sheds light on the de-
The visual environment has an impact on subjective strain and headaches. A visual ergonomics risk assessment method, VERAM, was used on 217 workplaces, and consists of both of a subjective questionnaire and an objective risk assessment, the objective risks are presented in this paper. The risk for daylight was assessed to be yellow (risk) or red (high risk) at 53% of the workplaces and the risk fo
Syftet med denna uppsats är att utreda om det finns ett samband mellan redovisningskvalité och starkt respektive svagt familjeägande. Eftersom det krävs mer forskning inom området så blir vårt syfte med uppsatsen att bidra till att öka förståelsen kring redovisningskvalité och hur denna påverkas av olika faktorer. Huvudfokus i teorikapitlet ligger på att definiera redovisningskvalité med hjälp av
The member states of the European Union face a two-fold democratic challenge; both from the increased relevance of global economic forces and from the gradual strengthening of a still democratically deficient EU. By using a mixture of empirical findings and theoretical analysis to assess the causal mechanisms likely to ensue, the ability of European fiscal federalism to ameliorate this situation i
By 2030, all countries in the World have agreed on fulfilling the 17 Sustainable Development Goals: being a tool for Sustainable Development Worldwide. To accomplish this, all countries need to find solutions how to reach these goals in their National contexts. In this regard, the thesis has examined whether legal pluralism can be a way to reach SDG16 in Ecuador, and if it complies with individual
In situ postgrowth annealing of (Ga,Mn)As layers under As capping is adequate for achieving high Curie temperatures (T-C) in a similar way as ex situ annealing in air or in N-2 atmosphere practiced earlier. Thus, the first efforts give an increase of T-C from 68 to 145 K after 2 h annealing at 180 degrees C. These data, in combination with lattice parameter determinations and photoemission results
Partially Premixed Combustion (PPC) has shown its potential by combining high combustion controllability with emission characteristics that are close to those of an HCCI engine. In order to get PPC the ignition delay needs to be long enough for the fuel and air to mix prior to combustion. This can be achieved by injecting the fuel sufficiently early while running with high EGR.In order to find out
Cervical cancer is a leading cause of morbidity and mortality in women worldwide. The availability of prophylactic vaccines for high-risk types of human papillomavirus (HPV) infection represents an important advancement in the prevention of cervical cancer. In Jordan, the availability of the HPV vaccination is restricted to individuals who are willing to pay. The aim of the current study was to ev
In this article we discuss the notions of social sustainability and universal design by reflecting on a particular type of architectural element in common space, namely the “social staircases” that serve as multifunctional spaces beyond mere transportation, aiming at social interaction. Through empirical examples, including a detailed analysis of a newly built housing project in Sweden, renowned fIn this article we discuss the notions of social sustainability and universal design by reflecting on a particular type of architectural element in common space, namely the “social staircases” that serve as multifunctional spaces beyond mere transportation, aiming at social interaction.

Over the last decade, crowdfunding has become an important tool for entrepreneurs as an alternative source of funding. Defined as a method for entrepreneurs to raise funding from a group of individuals in return for an incentive, reward-based crowdfunding is the main focus of this study and particularly how entrepreneurs perceive the benefits of this form of crowdfunding and the unexpected benefit
