The 'Technological Innovation System' (TIS) framework and its system functions have become a popular analytical tool for the study of clean-tech innovation. There is increasing attention for the role of emerging economies in global clean-tech innovation, but the applicability of TIS to emerging economies cases is not entirely straightforward. A key issue is the limited geographical considerations,
Spin-echo modulation small-angle neutron scattering (SEMSANS) is based on the detection of spatial beam modulation, which is induced by triangular spin echo precession regions and subsequent spin analyses. In order to detect such signal and exploit it for small angle scattering investigations neutron detection with sub-millimeter spatial resolution is required. Here an approach is reported where i
Terrestrial organic carbon is exported to freshwater systems where it serves as substrate for bacterial growth. Temporal variations in the terrigenous organic carbon support for aquatic bacteria are not well understood. In this paper, we demonstrate how the combined influence of landscape characteristics and hydrology can shape such variations. Using a 13-day bioassay approach, the production and
The application of the easily available and inexpensive chromatographic matrix hydroxyapatite for reusable and reversible immobilization of enzymes for enzyme thermistor-based flow injection analysis of glucose and Urea was tested. The immobilization was achieved by simple affinity adsorption of glucose oxidase and urease by a suitable pH-induced alteration of the protein charge. A linear detectio
Exercise during pregnancy is associated with health benefits for both the mother and the fetus, and is therefore recommended in several national guidelines. Only few studies investigate whether these guideline recommendations are met. The aims of this study were 1. To assess the prevalence of pregnant women meeting the Danish recommendations for exercise during early pregnancy, 2. To identify pre-
The Arctic faces massive challenges, and scholars estimate that parts of the Arctic are warming six times faster than the global mean. Consequently, the regions’ valuable resources are becoming more accessible due to climate change. These resources are argued as necessary for meeting global sustainable development challenges. Many scholars are additionally concerned that economic policy goals are
Brain activation mapping using fMRI data has been mostly focused on finding detections in gray matter. Activations in white matter are harder to detect due to anatomical differences between both tissue types, which are rarely acknowledged in experimental design. However, recent publications have started to show evidence for the possibility of detecting meaningful activations in white matter. The s
Separating valuable minerals from waste rock is an important step in the production of metals. This is for copper ore done through a process called flotation. A flotation series consists of tank cells in series where the minerals are collected in a froth on top of the cells. The level control of the flotation cells is important in order to be able to collect the froth. The first four flotation cel
Environmental tax measures have the potential to be great tools for achieving sustainable development goals in the EU. The different dimensions of sustainability need to be balanced in order to achieve sustainable development goals. In the EU, tax law has been focussed too much on the economic dimension, and too little on the environmental dimension, which could lead to environmental sustainabilit
The observed and well-known discrepancy between concentrations of ice nucleating particles in the environment and the concentrations of ice particles in clouds show that there are additional ‘secondary’ processes enhancing the concentrations of ice particles. In present-day modelling of weather and climate, such processes are mostly overlooked and thus a cause for uncertainty. Recent modelling s
In the recent years the world of electronics has faced the fact that Moore's law and Dennard scaling do not describe the progress of performance and integration of integrated circuits anymore. Alongside the costs of reducing the physical dimensions of the transistors another problem that is faced by the current technology is the limited power efficiency and memory bandwidth that results from a
This study is an analytical look at how new ventures approach keeping individuals within their organizations in order to ensure the long-run success of the venture. There is a particular focus on the non monetary incentives that are offered by employers and the influence they have on the intention for the individual to remain in a new venture. This has been done by following the framework of the j
This thesis studied the recording methodologies of conducting unannounced evacuation drills to enhance the understanding of evacuation behaviours and performance within the Complex Muon Solenoid (CMS) cavern at CERN. The primary objective was to validate the CMS underground evacuation simulation model for planned evacuation and compare various data collection methods. An unannounced evacuation dr
EMC is crucial when it comes to designing modern electronic systems, ensuring their functionality, reliability, and regulatory compliance amidst the ever-expanding electromagnetic landscape. This master's thesis delves into the domain of EMC by investigating the possibility of developing a Python-based proof-of-concept tool. The software tool is designed to analyze frequency spectra acquired f
Direct neuronal reprogramming has many medical applications that are at the forefront of medical research. There are known genes, such as Ascl1, Dlx5 and Lhx6, that induce the reprogramming into neuronal cells. However, because there are numerous genetic variables involved in direct reprogramming, the current methods for conversion is inefficient. Hence, we proposed a strategy to group genes and m
