An Empirical and Subjective Model of Upper Extremity Fatigue Under Hypogravity

Volker Gass, Claude Nicollier, Tatiana Maillard

In the context of extra-terrestrial missions, the effects of hypogravity (0 < G < 1) on the human body can reduce the well-being of the crew, cause musculoskeletal problems and affect their ability to perform tasks, especially during long-term missions. To ...

Design concept and thermal-structural analysis of a high power reflective mm-wave optical mirror (M2) for the ITER ECH-UL

Timothy Goodman, René Chavan, Matteo Vagnoni

Each of the 4 ITER Electron Cyclotron Heating Upper Launcher (ECHUL) features 8 transmission lines used to inject microwave power of up to 1.31 MW per line (at the FCS diamond window), into the plasma at a frequency of 170 GHz. The millimetre waves are gui ...

WHO WALKS THE TALK? VENTURE CAPITAL FUNDS’ ACTIONS AFTER SYMBOLIC SELF-REGULATION OF LIMITED AND GENERAL PARTNERS

Giovanni Liotta

This paper investigates if organizations use symbolic self-regulation to escape from normative pressure without complying in practices. I argue that, when an explicit regulatory environment does not support self-regulation initiatives, opportunistic organi ...

Signaling and Self-regulation in Venture Capital

Giovanni Liotta

This thesis proposes three studies that provide novel empirical evidence on how different types of VCs' characteristics signal the quality of an entrepreneurial venture and influence investment strategies of funds subject to self-regulation. In the first s ...

Cultural System or norm circles? An exchange

This article takes the form of a debate between the two authors on the social ontology of propositional culture. Archer applies the morphogenetic approach, analysing culture as a cycle of interaction between the Cultural System and Socio-Cultural Interacti ...

The effects of circadian phase, time awake, and imposed sleep restriction on performing complex visual tasks: Evidence from comparative visual search

Mirjam Münch

Cognitive performance not only differs between individuals, but also varies within them, influenced by factors that include sleep-wakefulness and biological time of day (circadian phase). Previous studies have shown that both factors influence accuracy rat ...

Regulatory Uncertainty and Nonmarket Capabilities

Bastian Wolfgang Schwark

In 2005, the Economist Intelligence Unit conducted a survey with Chief Risk Officers worldwide across all industries and asked about the biggest threat to their businesses. Interestingly, regulatory risk ranked first. It dominated all other types of risk, ...

Spatio-temporal brain dynamics mediating post-error behavioral adjustments

Fosco Bernasconi

Optimal behavior relies on flexible adaptation to environmental requirements, notably based on the detection of errors. The impact of error detection on subsequent behavior typically manifests as a slowing down of RTs following errors. Precisely how errors ...

Generation of a high depth of focus with constant transversal spot size using a phase-only pupil filter

Pramod Rastogi, Daniel Iwaniuk

A novel approach is proposed to obtain an extended depth of focus (DoF) in white light with constant transversal spot size within the DoF. It combines a phase-only pupil filter based on multiplexed radial zones with alternating quartic phase functions. The ...

Conformational flexibility of a rotaxane thread probed by electronic spectroscopy in helium nanodroplets

Marcel Drabbels

Ultra-high-resolution spectroscopic studies have been performed to elucidate the conformational landscape of the succinamide-based thread 1 that is frequently employed in mechanically interlocked molecular assemblies. We show how dissolving single molecule ...
