  2. 1. The quest for cultural sensitivity : how cultural sensitivity can be practised while mitigating othering in Swedish eldercare

    Author : Carl Johansson; Ildikó Asztalos Morell; Daniel Lindberg; Lena-Karin Gustafsson; Finnur Magnusson; Mälardalens universitet; []
    Keywords : SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Older adults with immigrant background; cultural sensitivity; eldercare; welfare theory of health; active ageing; othering; social work; socialt arbete; Social Work;

    Abstract : The need to provide culturally sensitive care for older adults with immigrant backgrounds has been expressed by care professionals. Meanwhile there is a lack of consensus about how this should be done, and critical perspectives in research highlight the danger of causing this group to be viewed as problem bearers. READ MORE

  4. 2. Sensitivity and Uncertainty Analysis of BWR Stability

    Author : Ivan Gajev; Tomas Lefvert; Paolo Vinai; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; BWR Stability; Sensitivity; Uncertainty; Engineering physics; Teknisk fysik; SRA - Energy; SRA - Energi;

    Abstract : Best Estimate codes are used for licensing, but with conservative assumptions. It is claimed that the uncertainties are covered by the conservatism of the calculation. READ MORE

  5. 3. Surface Plasmon Resonance : Sensitivity and Resolution

    Author : Knut Johansen; Günter Gauglitz; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) is a frequently used technique for detection of biomolecular interactions at surfaces. The SPR phenomenon emanates from an electromagnetic surface wave that is exited by a light source. READ MORE

  6. 4. A sensitivity analysis of the Winter-Kennedy method

    Author : Binaya Baidar; Michel J. Cervantes; Mikael Sendelius; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Hydropower; discharge; Winter-Kennedy; CFD; Sensitivity; Strömningslära; Fluid Mechanics;

    Abstract : Hydropower is among the lowest-cost electrical energy sources due to its long lifespan and lower operation and maintenance cost. The hydro-mechanical components of hydropower plants generally last about four to five decades, then they are either overhauled or replaced. READ MORE

  7. 5. Oxidized nucleotides as a predictor of radiation sensitivity

    Author : Ali Pour Khavari; Siamak Haghdoost; Marie Öhman; Anders Nilsson; Bo Stenerlöw; Neus Visa; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; 8-oxo-dG; Radiation; Sensitivity; Oxidized; Nucleotides; ROS; NOS; molekylär biovetenskap; Molecular Bioscience;

    Abstract : The direct and indirect effects of IR can lead to DNA damage and activation of DNA repair. The indirect effects of ionizing radiation mediated by reactive oxygen species (ROS) which produced through radiolysis of water and if not taken care of by the antioxidant system, can also give rise to oxidative stress.
