Form and load transfer aspects of foundation systems: Case‐based implementation and adaptation for buildings

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Upon conceptualization of structural behavior, foundations in terms of their form are divided into linear (1D), planar (2D), and volumetric (3D). Regarding the load transfer mechanisms, linear foundation systems are considered vector‐acting, planar foundations are divided into section and surface‐acting, and volumetric ones are recognized as block ...

Climate Backlash and Policy Dismantling: How Discursive Mechanisms Legitimised Radical Shifts in Swedish Climate Policy

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate backlash and policy dismantling, that is, the reversal of existing decarbonisation policies, can be observed in an increasing number of countries. Typically, policy change tends to be slow, while climate backlash can unfold quite fast. How is such rapid political change made possible?

Analogue switch-off vs digital switch-on: rethinking policy strategies in the digital television era [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In the last few decades, the traditional television landscape has come under pressure and the diffusion of digital television (DTV) services emerged as a hot issue.

“It's a tough job, but somebody's got to do it”: Committed consumers' voluntary emotion work in alternative market systems

open access: yesJournal of Consumer Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite increasing attention to alternative market systems, where consumers perform considerable voluntary labor, consumer researchers have a limited understanding of the nature or implications of the emotion work entailed in making such contributions.

Toward a Better Understanding of Minimalistic Motives: Consumption Typology, Scale Development, and Validation

open access: yesPsychology &Marketing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent research has acknowledged that a large and growing number of consumers worldwide have adopted a minimalistic philosophy and engaged in minimalistic consumption. However, extant research has generally grouped all minimalists together, thus limiting the theoretical and practical relevance of minimalism to the field of marketing.

Analysis of digital terrestrial television development in Taiwan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The development of digital terrestrial television (DTT) plays an important role of digital convergence. However, a regulator need not only select a suitable DVB standard but also decide timing of transition between existing standard and new standard ...

Weathering the storm: Effect of climate change on acute stroke care and stroke rehabilitation

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Climate change has deleterious effects on stroke recovery, disproportionately affecting populations with increased stroke incidence. These effects start prior to the acute care hospitalization, precipitated by environmental etiologies and are sustained throughout the life course of stroke survivors.

Effects of Observation‐Operator Nonlinearity on the Assimilation of Visible and Infrared Radiances in Ensemble Data Assimilation

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Ensemble Kalman filters implicitly linearize the observation operator, which causes the posterior to deviate from its linear approximation. We quantify the linearization error for visible and infrared radiances and conclude that the linear approximation should not be used for nonlinear observation types.
