Organisation du travail en Russie postsoviétique
Recherches Sociologiques et Anthropologiques, 2009 If there exists a particularly relevant configuration for analysing the circulation of imported management arrangements, it is indeed that of a country whose economies are said to be in transition. With this in view, the authors examine, regarding Russia,

Songs of the Factory: Pop Music, Culture, and Resistance [PDF]
, 2014 Having made the case for an ethnographic study of how workers hear and use music, I now turn to connect the topic to bigger questions within industrial sociology, musicology, and cultural studies—questions regarding the nature of popular music in ...

Robust Spot Melting by 3D Spot Arrangements in Electron Beam Powder Bed Fusion
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This work proposes an approach to replace separately melted contours for spot melting in electron beam powder fusion. Adapting the spot arrangements close to the contour combined with stacking yields a comparable surface quality without the inherent challenges of separate contours, as demonstrated, by electron optical images and roughness measurements.

Epoch, Epistemology and the Virtual Organization [PDF]
, 2013 This paper engages with contemporary discussions of ?the virtual organization?. Starting with some influential accounts that were published in the 1990s, the paper highlights the continued significance of control ration alities in the increasingly ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Predicting Atomic Charges in MOFs by Topological Charge Equilibration
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.An atomic charge prediction method is presented that is able to accurately reproduce ab‐initio‐derived reference charges for a large number of metal–organic frameworks. Based on a topological charge equilibration scheme, static charges that fulfill overall neutrality are quickly generated.

Que fait l’ergonomie que le lean ne sait / ne veut pas voir ?
Activités, 2012 As the subject of a major debate, lean presents two faces. On the one hand, the virtue of a thought which encompasses both the profitability of and improvement to work.

Nanothermometry in Living Cells: Physical Limits, Conceptual and Material Challenges
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Heat and temperature are fundamental to life. When nanothermometers began probing regions as small as a living cell, they triggered controversial claims of large intracellular temperature gradients. We review physical constraints energy‐conservation, entropy production, thermodynamic fluctuations, and molecular dynamics.
