Published: February 2025

En la industria de las comunicaciones los sistemas estructurales mástiles atirantados son ampliamente utilizados para dar sustento a los dispositivos de transmisión. A fin de garantizar la serviciabilidad de las comunicaciones, se requiere que en su servicio estas estructuras presenten un plan de mantenimiento que permita evaluar distintos aspectos relevantes para su adecuado funcionamiento estructural, entre los cuales se destaca controlar la tensión de trabajo al cual se encuentran las riendas. Para ello, las técnicas previstas corresponden al método directo mediante el uso de un dinamómetro, y al método indirecto mediante la generación de un pulso en la rienda cronometrando luego un cierto número de retornos de este al anclaje. Ambos métodos presentan ventajas y desventajas. El directo, la precisión en la medición pero un equipamiento poco disponible, el indirecto, la simplicidad en la ejecución pero imprecisión en los resultados. Como una alternativa a lo anterior, en la presente investigación se propone inferir el estado tensional de riendas a partir de la medición de sus frecuencias naturales mediante la técnica conocida como Ambient Vibration Measurements (AVM), para luego y valiéndose de las ecuaciones de la dinámica de cables, inferir la tensión de trabajo. Dicha técnica fue aplicada en las riendas de un mástil atirantado existente. Las tensiones obtenidas fueron cotejadas con mediciones llevadas a cabo mediante el método directo, así como también, con resultados de modelaciones numéricas.

Authors: Falah Muneera Ahmad
Published: February 2025

Organizational development is an intrinsic and continuous process that significantly influences the efficiency and effectiveness of job performance within administrative organizations. At the core of successful transformation efforts are the human and organizational dimensions, which are particularly critical in the context of human resource management. This study examines the impact of strategic organizational challenges on managing human resources within Jordanian SME logistics companies, providing a focused lens on how these challenges shape HR practices. The findings, derived from data collected from 189 respondents across Jordanian SMEs, reveal that strategic organizational challenges have a significant influence on human resource planning. By employing multiple regression analysis, the study highlights the complex interplay between these challenges and HR planning, demonstrating the need for organizations to adopt adaptive and strategic approaches. This insight underscores the importance of HRM as a dynamic component of organizational development, capable of responding to and mitigating the pressures posed by external and internal challenges. The findings reveal that all three challenges significantly influence HR planning, underscoring the urgency for innovative and adaptive strategies. Entrepreneurship emerges as a critical moderating variable, enabling SMEs to navigate these complexities and capitalize on emerging opportunities. Entrepreneurial principles such as adaptability, innovation, and strategic decision-making empower SMEs to address these challenges effectively, fostering resilience and agility within their workforce. This study’s contributions extend beyond theoretical insights, offering practical implications for practitioners, policymakers, and scholars. For practitioners, the findings emphasize the importance of strategic capacity-building initiatives that equip SMEs with the tools and knowledge necessary to implement adaptive HR practices. Policymakers can draw from these insights to design targeted interventions that support SME development, such as training programs and access to digital infrastructure. Scholars are encouraged to further explore the intersection of HRM and entrepreneurship, particularly in the context of SMEs operating in resource-constrained environments.

Authors: Lootah Rashid
Published: February 2025

This paper investigates the impact of strategic human resource planning on construction project management performance, focusing on infrastructure contracting companies. Strategic HR planning plays a critical role in enhancing project outcomes by addressing key performance dimensions such as cost efficiency, timeliness, quality, and safety. Using a mixed-methods approach, the research integrates qualitative insights from semi-structured interviews with quantitative data obtained through structured surveys. The study examines how strategic HR practices influence performance, with particular attention to the mediating roles of green HR practices, innovation capacity, and demographic factors like company size, capital, and age. The findings demonstrate that strategic HR planning significantly improves project management performance. This improvement is achieved by aligning workforce strategies with organizational goals, integrating Health, Safety, and Environmental (HSE) frameworks, and adopting green supply chain management practices. Green HR practices were found to positively influence sustainability outcomes, emphasizing the role of environmentally conscious HR strategies in achieving long-term success. Similarly, the study highlights the contribution of strategic HR practices to fostering innovation capacity, which enhances the organization’s ability to generate and implement innovative solutions, particularly critical in a dynamic and competitive industry like construction. Additionally, the study identifies financial evaluations as an essential component of strategic planning. These evaluations help organizations assess project feasibility, identify potential weaknesses, and align financial strategies with HR practices to enhance project success. The influence of demographic factors, including company size and age, further underscores the importance of tailoring HR strategies to organizational characteristics. Larger and more established companies tend to exhibit stronger project performance, benefiting from their resource base and institutional knowledge. Moreover, the research offers practical recommendations for construction firms seeking to optimize their HR strategies to achieve enhanced efficiency, sustainability, and competitiveness. However, the study is not without limitations. Its focus on infrastructure contracting companies in UAE limits the generalizability of findings to other industries or regions. Additionally, the reliance on self-reported data introduces potential biases, and the cross-sectional design does not capture long-term effects of HR strategies. Future research should adopt longitudinal designs to explore the sustained impact of strategic HR planning and extend the scope to include other industries and geographic contexts.

Authors: Chandimala U. R. , Sik Beatrix , Ajtony Zsolt
Published: February 2025

This study optimized the extraction and analysis of 5-caffeoylquinic acid (5-CQA), the predominant chlorogenic acid in hibiscus flowers, using a sustainable ethanolic extraction method combined with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis.  To identify the optimal solvent extraction conditions for 5-CQA from hibiscus, Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was employed, incorporating three factors: pH levels (2, 4.5, 7), extraction times (20, 40, 60 minutes) and solvent compositions (25v/v%, 50v/v%, 75v/v% ethanol). The temperature was maintained at the boiling point throughout the extraction period. RSM identified 25% ethanol, pH 7, and 25-minute heat treatment as the optimal extraction conditions for maximizing 5-CQA yield. Two HPLC columns; InertSustain Phenyl (A) and Synergi Polar (B), differing in length, diameter, and particle size were evaluated for chromatographic performance monitoring HPLC-UV signals at a wavelength of 325 nm. The mobile phase for both columns consisted of acetonitrile and acidified water (with orthophosphoric acid). Both HPLC columns achieved high correlation coefficients (0.9908 and 0.9965, A and B) between extracted 5-CQA and standard peaks. Under optimized conditions, the yields of 5-CQA were 1.43 mg/g and 1.48 mg/g dry hibiscus flower for columns A and B, respectively. Compared to literature-reported methods, the developed protocol offers high efficiency, reduced solvent usage, and minimal heat treatment, establishing it as a convenient, and sustainable alternative for 5-CQA extraction.

Background: Malnutrition and infectious diseases are interrelated public health challenges, especially in resource-limited settings. Malnutrition compromises immune function, increasing susceptibility to infections, while infections exacerbate malnutrition through nutrient loss and reduced appetite. Objective: This study explored the interplay between malnutrition and infectious diseases among children under five in rural Bangladesh, focusing on sociodemographic, nutritional, and hygiene-related factors. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at the Upazila Health Complex, Jamalganj, Sunamganj, from July to December 2023. Using systematic random sampling, 98 children aged 6–59 months diagnosed with infectious diseases were included. Data were collected through caregiver interviews and anthropometric measurements, adhering to World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines. Sociodemographic characteristics, dietary patterns, hygiene practices, and clinical history were assessed. Statistical analysis was conducted using chi-square tests and logistic regression to identify associations and predictors of malnutrition. Results: Among the participants, 40.8% of caregivers had primary education, and 51% belonged to low socioeconomic groups. Diarrhea (40.8%), respiratory infections (35.7%), and skin infections (15.3%) were the most common illnesses. Malnutrition was prevalent, with 40.8% of children moderately and 30.6% severely malnourished. Exclusive breastfeeding for six months was practiced in only 51% of cases. Significant associations were found between malnutrition and diarrhea (p = 0.03) and respiratory infections (p = 0.02). Maternal education, low socioeconomic status, and inadequate breastfeeding were key predictors of malnutrition. Conclusion: The study highlights the bidirectional relationship between malnutrition and infectious diseases, emphasizing the role of maternal education, hygiene practices, and breastfeeding in improving child health. Integrated interventions addressing these factors are essential to reduce the dual burden of malnutrition and infections.

Measuring Public Innovation in the Nordic Countries: Final Report
Authors: Bloch Carter Walter
Published: February 2025

In order to be able to improve our knowledge and understanding of the rate and degree of innovation in the public sector, as well as about its incentives, processes and impact, there is now an increasing awareness of the need for more systematic and comparable data on innovation in the public sector. The objective of the Nordic research project “Measuring innovation in the public sector in the Nordic countries (MEPIN)”’ is to develop a measurement framework for collecting internationally comparable data on innovation in the public sector, which both will contribute to our understanding of what public sector innovation is and how public sector organisations innovate and will develop metrics for use in promoting public sector innovation.

From tendencies to genuine innovation policy - the Danish case
Authors: Krogh Graversen Ebbe
Published: February 2025

This chapter discusses two decades during which a general, diffuse Danish interest in innovation in the early 1980s gradually transformed into a more active technology policy and eventually into a genuine innovation policy in the late 1990s. The chapter ends with the establishment of the Council for Technology and Innovation, CTI, in 2002, and begins in the 1970s when energy crises exposed the vulnerability of the Danish national economy and welfare and showed the contours of an increasingly globalized world.

Published: February 2025

Denne rapport indeholder 3 delundersøgelser af ph.d.ers bidrag til det omkringliggende samfund herunder i særdeleshed beskæftigelse og effekter eller ’impact’. Delundersøgelserne tager udgangspunkt i Aarhus Universitets dimitterede ph.d.er, deres beskæftigelser siden dimission, arbejdsgivernes udbytte af at ansætte ph.d.er samt ph.d.ers impact målt ved forskningsproduktion i form af videnskabelige publikationer. Delundersøgelse 1 og 2 er forfattet på dansk mens delundersøgelse 3 er forfattet på engelsk. Delundersøgelserne er fortløbende afrapporteret i denne rapport og kan hver i sær læses individuelt. Samlende viser delundersøgelserne, at ph.d.er fra Aarhus Universitet er efterspurgte, har en høj beskæftigelsesgrad og i et stort omfang udfører forskning, undervisning og ledelse i deres arbejdskarriere efter forskeruddannelsen. Resultaterne er så vidt muligt afrapporteret på fakultetsniveau og samlet for Aarhus Universitet.
