Subjects: subject: Biology, Anatomy.

description: The main objective of this project was to master the electron probe x-ray microanalysis technique to permit one to obtain physiologically meaningful quantitative elemental profiles (Na, Cl, K, P, Mg, Ca & S) for the components of a given cell. The techniques which had to be mastered were: preparation of mammalian (rat) cardiac muscle; 'rapid' cryofixation using a Reichert-Jung MM80E 'impact freezer'; cryosectioning using a Reichert-Jung FC4 cryoultramicrotome; transfer and freeze-drying; electron probe x-rays collection using the EDAX 9100 Series Energy Dispersive X-ray Analysis Systems attached to a Philips TEM 420; quantitative analysis using the Hall equation and thin membrane aminoplastic standards. Different methods of transfer and freeze-drying were compared. Method I-a. Cryotransfer to the electron microscope using a modified Philips Cryotransfer system, freeze-drying in the column of the electron microscope, x-rays collection at low temperature; Method I-b. Cryotransfer to the electron microscope using a modified Philips Cryotransfer system, freeze-drying in the column of the electron microscope, x-rays collection at ambient temperature; Method II. Cryotransfer to a vacuum chamber (Edward-Coating System E306 A) using a precooled metal carrier, freeze-drying in a vacuum chamber while warming at ambient temperature, transfer and x-rays collection at ambient temperature.

description: Background: The primary objective of this randomised controlled trial (RCT) is to establish the effectiveness of a novel online quality of life (QoL) intervention tailored for people with late stage (≥ 10 episodes) bipolar disorder (BD) compared with psychoeducation. Relative to early stage individuals, this late stage group may not benefit as much from existing psychosocial treatments. The intervention is a guided self-help, mindfulness based intervention (MBI) developed in consultation with consumers, designed specifically for web-based delivery, with email coaching support. Methods/design: This international RCT will involve a comparison of the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of two 5-week adjunctive online self-management interventions: Mindfulness for Bipolar 2.0 and an active control (Psychoeducation for Bipolar). A total of 300 participants will be recruited primarily via social media channels. Main inclusion criteria are: a diagnosis of BD (confirmed via a phone-administered structured diagnostic interview), no current mood episode, history of 10 or more mood episodes, no current psychotic features or active suicidality, under the care of a medical practitioner. Block randomisation will be used for allocation to the interventions, and participants will retain access to the program for 6 months. Evaluations will be conducted at pre- and post- treatment, and at 3- and 6- months follow-up. The primary outcome measure will be the Brief Quality of Life in Bipolar Disorder Scale (Brief QoL.BD), collected immediately post-intervention at 5 weeks (T1). Secondary measures include BD-related symptoms (mania, depression, anxiety, stress), time to first relapse, functioning, sleep quality, social rhythm stability and resource use. Measurements will be collected online and via telephone assessments at baseline (T0), 5 weeks (T1), three months (T2) and six months (T3). Candidate moderators (diagnosis, anxiety or substance comorbidities, demographics and current treatments) will be investigated as will putative therapeutic mechanisms including mindfulness, emotion regulation and self-compassion. A cost-effectiveness analysis will be conducted. Acceptability and any unwanted events (including adverse treatment reactions) will be documented and explored. Discussion: This definitive trial will test the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of a novel QoL focused, mindfulness based, online guided self-help intervention for late stage BD, and investigate its putative mechanisms of therapeutic action.

description: Background: Clostridium difficile infection (CDI) is known as one of the most important causes of nosocomial infections. The main objective of this study was to evaluate the presence of Clostridium difficile in the stool of hospitalized patients with diarrhea as well as in their environments. Methods: C. difficile isolates were characterized according to the presence of toxin genes and antibiotic resistance. Multilocus Sequence Typing Analysis (MLST) was applied for finding the genetic polymorphism and relationship among strain lineages. Results: A total of 821 samples (574 stools and 247 swabs) were collected between April 2015 and May 2017. The prevalence of C. difficile isolates was 28.6% (164/574) in patients and 19% (47/247) in swabs taken from medical devices, hands of healthcare workers and skin patient sites. Finally, 11.5% (66/574) toxigenic C. difficile strains isolated from stool samples of inpatients and 4.4% (11/247) from hands of healthcare workers and skin patient sites. All the toxigenic isolates were inhibited by a low concentration of vancomycin (MIC < 0.5 μg/ml). About 43% (33/77) and 39% of isolates were resistant to Clindamycin and moxifloxacin respectively. All isolates were susceptible to metronidazole. Toxigenic C. difficile strains were analyzed by MLST and were divided into 4 different STs. The detected types were ST-54 (57.9%), followed by ST-2 (31.6. %), ST-15 (5.3%) and ST-37 (5.3%), while none of the isolates were identified as ST-1 or ST-11. Significant risk factors for CDI appear to be advanced age, undergoing chemotherapy, previous surgery, and residence in the nursing home. Conclusions: CDI is common in Iran and further studies are recommended to monitor its epidemiological variations. Moreover, greater attempts must be made to encourage antibiotic stewardship by healthcare workers and the public.

Subjects: subject: Political Science, General.

description: Cette thèse est une tentative de réfléchir sur la présence du Législateur dans l'oeuvre politique de Jean-Jacques Rousseau. En nous appuyant principalement sur le Discours sur l'inégalité et sur le Contrat social, nous retraçons la place de cette figure dans la théorie de la fondation politique tout en réfléchissant sur la place de la contingence et de la nécessité dans cette théorie. La recherche compare Rousseau avec les grands auteurs contractualistes mail s'appuie également sur une lecture de Platon, Bonnie Honig et Hannah Arendt pour étoffer la compréhension de la théorie rousseauiste. Dans la dernière partie, nous proposons une critique, qui met en évidence la contingence de la figure du Législateur et la difficulté de l'appel au divin.

description: Изучением культурных различий стали заниматься в последние годы учёные разных стран. Однако неодинаковы их мнения о выражениях культурных различий. На основе их достижений в исследованиях автор и излагает свой взгляд. В данной статье рассматривается несоответствие понятия культуры в переводящем языке (ПЯ) и исходном языке (ИЯ). Человечество живёт в одном материальном мире. Язык отражает общность всего человеческого рода. Несмотря на то, что у разных народов разные языки, можно использовать схожие понятия для называния вещей и предметов и объяснения смысла слов. Именно эта общность даёт разным нациям возможность культурного обмена, а также позволяет осуществлять перевод с одного языка на другой. Однако культуры разных наций формировались в разных исторических условиях, географической обстановке, разных традициях и этических нормах при разных образах мысли и стереотипах поведения. Именно эти особенности и различия создают препятствия при переводе.
Articulating a diasporic identity: The case of Latin American filmmakers in Quebec
Creators: name: Marquez, Zaida
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Sociology, Ethnic and Racial Studies.
subject: Cinema.

description: The flow of immigrants to Canada continues to increase steadily. Questions regarding identity are thus unavoidable in order to understand how diasporic identities are constructed within a multicultural Canada. An important contribution to this debate is embedded in the cinematographic expressions that immigrants produce. Such cultural products serve not only as mean to represent themselves, but also to negotiate their positions in regards to Canadian society, as well as their countries of origin. The Latin American community is an interesting example, as multiple cultures, nations, histories, and identities are included within it. This study critically analyzes how identity is represented in the films produced by Latin Americans in Quebec. The analysis takes into account the films, the filmmaker's perspective and the conditions these documentaries were produced in. Given these elements, this research looks at how a Latin American identity is constructed from the diaspora, and what kind of cinematographic strategies the filmmakers use to articulate such an identity.

функция пейзажа и образов природы

description: В данной статье рассматриваются образы природы и пейзаж в повести А.П. Чехова «Драма на охоте». Основной задачей статьи является системный анализ пейзажа и образов природы и обобщение их художественных функций в названном произведении. Хотя данная тема давно привлекала внимание исследователей, автор по-новому освещает её через анализ связи описания пейзажа и развития сюжета, анализ связи описания образов природы и соз дания образов персонажей. На основании проведенного исследования устанавливается, что пейзаж в данной повести не просто воссоздает обстановку и выполняет сюжетно-композиционную функцию, но и помогает выявить душевное состояние персонажей, сформировать их яркие образы. Пейзаж и образы природы играют важную, уникальную роль в творчестве Чехова. Результаты анализа, представленного в работе, могут быть использованы при исследова нии идиостиля писателя.
Fostering ICT development for growth: measuring the payoffs for Australia and the Asean-5 countries

description: Over the past few decades the brisk development of information and communication technologies (ICT) has had a phenomenal impact on the economic stability and development of many countries. Empirical studies show that most developed economies have gained significant payoffs (in terms of economic growth) from their ICT investments. This study investigates the hypothesis that ICT-based investment has paid off for Australia and the ASEAN-5 countries (Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand and the Philippines) between 1992 and 2006. Applying a new cointegration technique, which takes into account the presence of a potential structural break, shows that ICT investment has had a positive and significant long-run relationship with economic growth in Australia, Malaysia and Singapore. However, in Indonesia, the Philippines and Thailand ICT investment did not contribute significantly to economic growth during the same period. These three countries have yet to reap the benefits of ICT. Our empirical results suggest that the three lagging ASEAN countries should increase their ICT investment in order to achieve sustainable economic growth in the new knowledge-based economy.

Analytical and numerical evaluation of configuration factors in radiation heat transfer.
Creators: name: Gupta, Kamlesh Gopal.
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 1969
Subjects: subject: Engineering, Mechanical.

description: The object of this thesis is twofold; on the one hand the radiation configuration factors for certain fundamental geometries---not previously treated in the literature---have been developed and, on the other hand, an entirely new approach proposed by Feingold* has been investigated, leading to a series of new analytical formulas involving spheres and infinitely long cylinders. Particularly significant are two hitherto unobserved conclusions; namely that the radius of the radiating sphere or of infinitely long cylinder does not affect the factor from that body to an entire class of surfaces described in the thesis, and that the Lambertian postulate of non-preferential distribution of radiation intensity over the surfaces of spheres and infinitely long cylinders is not necessary to the calculation of factors from these bodies. Several graphs have been plotted which should form a useful addition to the collection of similar data already available in the standard textbooks.
Microbial activity of iron-reducing bacteria and sulfate-reducing bacteria isolated from mine tailings in the presence of various electron donors
Creators: name: Rioux, Jean-Philippe
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Geology.

description: Two abandoned mine tailings sites (Calumet near Ottawa, and Potter near Timmins, Ontario) have been shown to support active populations of iron- (IRB) and sulfate-reducing bacteria (SRB). The competition between IRB and SRB for similar electron donors was however never assessed. The present study looked into the potential competition between IRB and SRB isolated from those 2 sites since they represent different pH conditions and mineralogy. The Potter tailings are acidic to slightly acidic and contain large quantities of sulfides, whereas the Calumet tailings are alkaline and contain less pyrite and more carbonate minerals. Batch experiments were designed to test the competition between IRB and SRB for 3 electron donors (acetate, formate and lactate) and to determine the role of abiotic Fe(III) reduction. Results from abiotic systems indicated that Fe(II) was released overtime in the various systems due to the reduction of Fe(III)-rich minerals by the organic acids present in the medium and due to the chemical oxidation of pyrite by ferric iron. IRB could only grow in the Calumet systems containing inhibited SRB. In these systems, IRB growth was favored in the presence of acetate. In the systems containing active SRB, IRB growth was minimal in the presence of all electron donors, suggesting that they cannot compete with SRB under the conditions used in the systems. SRB present in all systems were capable of oxidizing all 3 electron donors, including acetate. Our results also showed that complete and incomplete lactate oxidizers were present in the Calumet and Potter systems.

Social capital, political empowerment and social difference : a mixed-methods study of an ecotourism project in the rural Volta Region of Ghana
Creators: name: Harris, Leila
name: Ramón-Hidalgo, Ana-Elia
Publisher: name: Journal of Sustainable Tourism
Year: 2020

description: Claims abound regarding the empowering possibilities of community-based natural resources management (CBNRM). Social capital is seen as a key element towards that end, yet there is a paucity of critical research testing these connections. This study examines two aspects of social capital (cognitive and structural) in a community-based ecotourism (CBE) project in Ghana as they relate to social difference (notably gender and ethnicity) and political empowerment (i.e., access to political involvement, and political efficacy). Quantitative results highlight specific gendered and ethnic differences in political empowerment and social capital that, when combined with qualitative analysis, reveal how those inequities in ecotourism may be rooted in socio/cultural norms. In addition, a novel contribution from this study is that political empowerment seems to be partly mediated by peoples’ access to social capital. This suggests that, regardless of one’s gender and ethnicity, social capital helps to empower individuals. We conclude by describing what an intervention could look like in the context of this CBE project when informed by qualitative feminist as well as quantitative social capital analysis. Doing so we illustrate how a mixed-methods approach to the study of social capital and empowerment may offer important insights towards more equitable CBE.

Contested ethnic identity: The case of Macedonian Canadians in Toronto, 1940--1996
Creators: name: Kostov, Hristo
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: History, Canadian.

description: This thesis attempts to contribute to a better understanding of the different ethnic identities of immigrants from the geographic region of Macedonia living in Toronto and to discern why it is that their ethnic identities very often collide with and exclude one another. The geographic region of Macedonia is defined as an area that includes the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia (FYROM), also known as Vardar Macedonia, Aegean Macedonia, which is a region in northwestern Greece, and Pirin Macedonia, a region in southwestern Bulgaria. The dissertation demonstrates that, due to historical and political circumstances that led to the division of the geographic region of Macedonia among three countries, the immigrants who came to Toronto from this part of the Balkan peninsula developed three very distinct ethnic identities -- Bulgarian, Macedonian and Greek -- as well as at least three different meanings of the terms 'Macedonia' and 'Macedonian.' Once in Toronto, the newcomers proclaimed their ethnic identities through their churches, ethnocultural organizations, community newspapers, and on Canadian censuses. All three communities attempted to monopolize the historical facts about Macedonia. The author concludes that the conflict among the three groups cannot be defused unless all sides admit that the other two Macedonian identities exist and, more importantly, these identities can co-exist and they do not negate one another.

description: Background: Fear of cancer treatment can become overwhelming. It is important to understand what patients are mainly afraid of and what factors are correlated with intense fear of treatment. Methods: Patients with primary breast cancer (n = 761) completed questionnaires about fear of treatment before surgery (t1), and before (t2) and after (t3) adjuvant treatment. Psychological co-morbidity was assessed using the Patient Health Questionnaire. Logistic regression identified predictors of intense fear of treatment. Results: Patients were most afraid of chemotherapy (mean score 3.5), and fear remained high throughout follow-up; fear of radiotherapy and of surgery was lower and decreased over time (from 2.7 to 2.2, p < 0.0001; and from 2.6 to 2.2, p < 0.0001, respectively). Patients with psychological co-morbidity (odds ratios (OR) 1.7-3.0) and those who had heard reports of negative experiences with cancer treatments from others (OR 3.8-16.2) were more likely to have intense fear of all the treatments. Patients with a previous cancer less often expressed fear of surgery (OR 0.6, 95% confidence interval 0.4-1.0). Conclusion: Fear of treatment, especially of chemotherapy, is prevalent in many patients with primary breast cancer. Patients with psychological co-morbidity and those who have heard reports of negative experiences with cancer treatment are at higher risk of experiencing intense fear. © In Copyright http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/ © In Copyright http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/
Oxygen Uptake Studies of Organic and Inorganic Oxidations

Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Chemistry, Inorganic.
subject: Chemistry, Organic.

description: The investigations in this thesis deal with two types of very different oxidations. The first study follows our groups' discovery of a new and unusual class of antioxidants, where the actual antioxidant is, paradoxically, a carbon-centered radical. The radical precursors are dimer molecules that, upon heating, dissociate to form two persistent carbon-centered free radicals, unreactive towards oxygen. These radicals act as chain-breaking antioxidants by rapidly reacting with peroxyl radicals that participate in propagation of autoxidation chain reactions. The solvent effects on antioxidant activity of one of these antioxidants, the HP-136 dimer, has been assessed in a range of solvents of varying hydrogen bond accepting ability, by the Inhibited Oxygen Uptake (IOU) method. The HP-136 dimer was found to show far less solvent effect on antioxidant activity than a representative phenolic antioxidant. In the second part of the thesis, the process of copper nanoparticle (CuNP) oxidation is explored, with a goal of developing new strategies for CuNP stabilization under air. It was found that CuNP oxidize to form Cu 2+ as the major product, in a process that involves oxygen uptake. L-ascorbic acid was found to be a sacrificial stabilizer of CuNP, and a mechanism of CuNP stabilization by ascorbic acid is proposed.

description: The opening of the Melbourne Museum in 2000 marked the end of a period in which the thematics, locations and corporate arrangements of Victoria’s nineteenth-century state museums were thoroughly overhauled. While the provocative siting and expressive architecture of the Melbourne Museum are emblematic of the political style of state premier Jeffrey Kennett, who led a Liberal (conservative) government from 1992 to 1999, the merging of colonial museums of natural sciences and technology to form the Museum of Victoria in 1983 provides a necessary point of reference for the Melbourne Museum project.

description: Актуальность исследования обусловлена интересом таких направлений современной науки, как филология, семиотика, герменевтика, лингвистика, сти листика текста и его декодирование, внутритекстовым механизмам смыслоформирования в художественном тексте и выявлению элементов, участвующих в этом процессе. В связи с этим цель данной статьи направлена на выявление способов репрезентации символических смыслов образной сферы текста через такие стилистические модели, как метафора, аллегория и ономатопея, которые осуществляют роль смысловой и эмоциональной интеграции художествен ного текста. Ведущим подходом к исследованию данной проблемы является контекстуальная интерпретация тропов с элементами структурно-семантиче ского, логического, фоносематического и стилистического анализа, что позволяет дать комплексное описание предмета исследования. Анализ проводится на примере отрывков из английской и русской художественной литературы. В статье раскрываются механизмы приращения смысла в художественном тексте через тропы; выявлены особенности метафоры, аллегории и ономатопеи как смыслообразующих элементов текста, способных максимально реа лизовать ассоциативно-семантическую сеть дополнительных непрямых смыслов. Обоснован тезис об их символическом потенциале, который изначально заложен в самой природе этих тропов. Новизна подхода определяется следующим постулатом: если символ – это посредник между текстом и культурой, то троп является посредником между текстом и символом. Материалы статьи представляют практическую ценность для специалистов в области филологии, филологической герменевтики, стилистики и интерпретации текста.

description: Background: The estimated 300,000 adults in Australia with severe mental illness (SMI) have markedly reduced life expectancy compared to the general population, mainly due to physical health comorbidities. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the commonest cause of early death and people with SMI have high rates of most modifiable risk factors, with associated quality of life (QoL) reduction. High blood pressure, smoking, dyslipidaemia, diabetes and obesity are major modifiable CVD risk factors. Poor delivery of recommended monitoring and risk reduction is a national and international problem. Therefore, effective preventive interventions to safeguard and support physical health are urgently needed in this population. Methods: This trial used a rigorous process, including extensive piloting, to develop an intervention that delivers recommended physical health care to reduce CVD risk and improve QoL for people with SMI. Components of this intervention are integrated using the Flinders Program of chronic condition management (CCM) which is a comprehensive psychosocial care planning approach that places the patient at the centre of their care, and focuses on building their self-management capacity within a collaborative approach, therefore providing a recovery-oriented framework. The primary project aim is to evaluate the effectiveness and health economics of the CCM intervention. The main outcome measures examine CVD risk and quality of life. The second aim is to identify essential components, enablers and barriers at patient, clinical and organisational levels for national, sustained implementation of recommended physical health care delivery to people with SMI. Participants will be recruited from a community-based public psychiatric service. Discussion: This study constitutes the first large-scale trial, worldwide, using the Flinders Program with this population. By combining a standardised yet flexible motivational process with a targeted set of evidence-based interventions, the chief aim is to reduce CVD risk by 20%. If achieved, this will be a ground-breaking outcome, and the program will be subsequently translated nationwide and abroad. The trial will be of great interest to people with mental illness, family carers, mental health services, governments and primary care providers because the Flinders Program can be delivered in diverse settings by any clinical discipline and supervised peers.

description: Im Rahmen dieses Projekts wurden schließlich insgesamt 111.000 verfallsbedrohte Fotos bearbeitet. Die Digitalisierung der Negative erfolgte bei CDS Gromke e.K. in Leipzig mittels eines aus der Großlabortechnik stammenden Sigma Plus Scanners der Firma Durst. Der zu bearbeitende Bestand setzte sich aus knapp 20.000 S/W-Negativen der Formate 6x6, 6x7, 6x9 und 9x12 sowie rund 86.000 Kleinbild-Negativen zusammen. Das Ausgangsmaterial befand sich lagerungsbedingt in sehr unterschiedlichem Zustand. Durch langjährige Aufbewahrung im aufgerollten Zustand besonders stark gekrümmte Negative aus dem Nachlass Pisarek verursachten teilweise erheblichen Mehraufwand. Um die Negative dennoch effektiv bearbeiten zu können, wurden sie in Dresden durch zwei Restauratorinnen für die Digitalisierung vorbereitet. Diese Arbeiten beinhalteten Reinigen der Negative, Materialprüfung, ggf. Aussondern nicht mehr verwendbarer Negative, Umtaschen in archivfestes Verpackungsmaterial sowie Benummern und schließlich Sortierung der Roll- und Planfilme nach Größe.

Die Digitalisierung bei dem spezialisierten Dienstleister erfolgte mit 3.200 dpi (9x12 Vorlagen mit 2.500 dpi) als Graustufenbilder mit einer Farbtiefe von 16 Bit. Vereinzelte Farbnegative und –dias im Nachlass Richard Peter sen. wurden mit 48 Bit RGB icc-kompatibel gescannt und in den Arbeitsfarbraum Adobe RGB konvertiert. Der gesamte Datenbestand ergab ein Volumen von 5,5 Terabyte, das in Einzellosen auf Transferplatten zwischen Dienstleister und Fotothek ausgetauscht wurde. Bis zur Bestätigung der doppelt gesicherten Übernahme der Daten in das Speichersystem der Sächsischen Landesbibliothek – Staats- und Universitätsbibliothek Dresden wurde in Leipzig eine Sicherungskopie vorgehalten.

description: Le but de cette étude exploratoire inspirée de la théorie de la dissonance cognitive et réalisée selon la méthode de la théorisation ancrée était de décrire, chez le personnel infirmier, les facteurs reliés à la non dénonciation des actes de maltraitance envers les personnes âgées vivant en centres de soins de longue durée. Une entrevue semi-structurée fut conduite auprès de sept infirmières et infirmières auxiliaires recrutées selon l'échantillonnage par réseaux dans deux CHSLD de la région de Montréal. De l'analyse des données recueillies ont émergé sept facteurs: expériences antérieures difficiles, prise en main de la situation, inertie organisationnelle, culture du silence, niveau de gravité de la maltraitance, désensibilisation et relations contraignantes au travail. Les résultats révèlent l'absence de référence aux codes d'éthique. La non dénonciation découle de plusieurs facteurs évoluant dans une dynamique complexe engageant à la fois le personnel infirmer et son environnement et s'accompagne d'une importante souffrance émotionnelle.

description: В статье анализируются особенности медиаобраза политического лидера КНР в контексте реализации концепции «китайской мечты». Проанализирова ны публикации официального государственного издания «Жэньминь жибао» за период с 1 июня 2018 по 1 июня 2019 года. В результате исследования сде лан вывод о том, что образ Си Цзиньпина в газете «Жэньминь жибао» неразрывно связан с идеей «китайской мечты». В публикациях его деятельность, как правило, рассматривается как работа по преодолению существующих в китайском обществе проблем. При этом, поскольку деятельность по воплощению «китайской мечты в жизнь» еще не завершена, образ Си Цзиньпина, скорее, ассоциируется с перспективами и возможностями, чем со статичным состояни ем уверенности и благополучия. В то же время медиаобраз Си Цзиньпина является своеобразным индикатором изменений, происходящих в современном китайском обществе.

description: This study reviewed internationalisation theory and in particular export initiation using an innovation lens. The literature reviewed innovation with competing internationalisation approaches such as: stages, learning, born-global, network, and contingency. The'development of a market' is acknowledged as an aspect of innovation and this is central to the function of early internationalisation such as export initiation. Using this definition of innovation all early internationalisation such as the first export is an innovation and not necessarily just the domain of the stages approach. There has been some specific roles noted in organisational innovation, in particular, champion roles were reviewed to see if and how it fits with export initiation. A research question was derived for champion role/s and was tested using a typology of internationalisation approaches. Qualitative depth interviews were conducted with those involved with the first and subsequent export. It was found that in every different approach to early internationalisation, some innovation champion behaviour appears to exist with those involved in new to export SME manufacturers. Limitations and further research have also been noted in this paper.

description: Raised overpotential by clustering?! A new continuum model that considers ion aggregation is presented and applied to magnesium tetrakis(hexafluoroisopropyloxy)borate in dimethoxyethane as electrolyte. Thereby, the properties of ion clusters and their effects on the battery performance are analyzed. Simulations imply that cluster formation can be essential to explain the concentration-dependence of experimental data. The choice of electrolyte has a crucial influence on the performance of rechargeable magnesium batteries. In multivalent electrolytes an agglomeration of ions to pairs or bigger clusters may affect the transport in the electrolyte and the reaction at the electrodes. In this work the formation of clusters is included in a general model for magnesium batteries. In this model, the effect of cluster formation on transport, thermodynamics and kinetics is consistently taken into account. The model is used to analyze the effect of ion clustering in magnesium tetrakis(hexafluoroisopropyloxy)borate in dimethoxyethane as electrolyte. It becomes apparent that ion agglomeration is able to explain experimentally observed phenomena at high salt concentrations.

description: For over 40 years, scenarios have been promoted as a key technique for forming strategies in uncertain environments. However, many challenges remain. In this article, we discuss a novel approach designed to increase the applicability of scenario-based strategizing in top management teams. Drawing on behavioural strategy as a theoretical lens, we design a yardstick to study the impact of scenario-based strategizing. We then describe our approach, which includes developing scenarios and alternative strategies separately and supporting the strategy selection through an integrated assessment of the goal-based efficacy and robustness. To facilitate the collaborative strategizing in teams, we propose a matrix with robustness and efficacy as the two axes, which we call the Parmenides Matrix. We assess the impact of the novel approach by applying it in two cases, at a governmental agency (German Environmental Ministry) and a firm affected by disruptive change (Bosch, leading global supplier of technology and solutions).
