Concept of change management for implementing a new intranet tool at Franke Group
No full textFranke is currently utilizing Atlassian’s Confluence Server as a global intranet solution. However, since the current Confluence Server product is running out of service in 2023, Franke has conducted a software evaluation in order to identify if the recently chosen SharePoint solution fulfils all the relevant business, technical and security requirements. Since the partner for the migration phase has been chosen, for the next phase Franke is interested in a change management concept based on a literature review to assist employees’ acceptance of the new tool
Dave Franke on philanthropic investment
No full textDave Franke is a Principal at Franke & Company and the son of Bill Franke, founder of Indigo Partners. In 2016 the Franke family made the single largest gift in University of Montana history, naming both the WA Franke College of Forestry and Conservation as well as the Franke Global Leadership initiative.
Dave’s work involves finding places where the family can invest to create both impact and access and you’ll hear those two themes throughout the conversation. We discuss the concept of philanthropic investing and how it differs from the traditional charitable giving model. Dave cites some compelling reasons to invest in higher education, reasons that certainly resonate with me and likely many of you.https://scholarworks.umt.edu/anewangle_podcasts/1083/thumbnail.jp
Moisture induced stresses: numerical approaches and results
No full textWood as a hygroscopic material adapts to variations of relative humidity and temperature of its surrounding environment: it either releases moisture in a drying process or adsorbs during a wetting process. The distribution of the moisture content across load bearing elements is normally non-uniform (Dietsch et al. 2015, Fortino et al. 2019, Franke et al. (2019)). The subsequent hygro-expansion and (constrained) swelling and shrinkage generates moisture induced stresses (MIS). These stresses can exceed the allowable strength perpendicular to the grain and generate cracks. The load-carrying capacity are reduced, and visible appeal of timber structures are affected. Structures are built throughout the year and building processes span multiple months until a building envelope is closed. Damage can be already initiated before the building is opened for its intended use

Stimulus Data for "Comparative Study on the Perception of Direction in Animated Map Transitions Using Different Map Projections"
No full text
We compare how well participants can determine the geographical direction of an animated map transition. In our between-subject online study, each of three groups is shown map transitions in one map projection: Mercator, azimuthal equidistant projection, or two-point equidistant projection. The distances of the start and end point are varied. Map transitions zoom out and pan towards the middle point, then zoom in and continue panning, following the recommendations by Van Wijk and Nuij (IEEE InfoVis, 2003). We measure response time and accuracy in the task. We evaluate the results by the sample means per participant, using interval estimation with 95% confidence intervals. We construct the confidence intervals by using BCa bootstrapping.
The study is pre-registered on OSF.io, but due to file size limitations, we were not able to submit the video stimuli there.
Instead, we provide them here.
This repository contains the MPEG-4 video files that were shown to the participants in the videos/ folder.
These are numbered from 0 to 1199 for each of the three map projections, which are also stated in the file name, for a total of 3,600 video stimuli.
An additional 3×6 example stimuli are also included.
For each video stimulus, a JSON file with the same prefix file name (projection + number) is located in the metadata/ folder.
These files contain the ground truth metadata for the respective stimulus.
The stimuli shown for teaching the participants the task are located with the same structure under the examples/ folder.
The entire source code for the study is also available in the related publication.
The related repository includes:
The code for generating the individual PNG frames, and JSON metadata, for each stimulus.
The server and front-end code for the online study itself.
The Python and R code for evaluating the study results.

This repository contains the source code related to an OSF pre-registration for an online study.
The goal of the study was to evaluate how well participants can determine the geographical direction of an animated map transition.

Mercator, azimuthal equidistant projection, or two-point equidistant projection.
The distances of the start and end point are varied.
Map transitions zoom out and pan towards the middle point, then zoom in and continue panning, following the recommendations by Van Wijk and Nuij (IEEE InfoVis, 2003).
We measure response time and accuracy in the task.
We evaluate the results by the sample means per participant, using interval estimation with 95% confidence intervals.
We construct the confidence intervals by using BCa bootstrapping.
This repository contains the entire code for the study.
The various folders also contain README Markdown files that explain the components and how they are to be used.
The npm and Python version dependencies are listed below under Research Software Metadata, the versions of package dependencies are provided via the lockfiles (stimuliCreation/package.json, online-study/package.json, and online-study-flask-server-main/pyproject.toml).
The folders are:
assignment/:
Python script to randomly distribute and assign the stimuli to participants.
dataAnalysis/:
R code to evaluate the collected data for the study.
evaluation/:
Python code to extract and pre-process the study results of individual participants.
The result of the preprocessing step are collected CSV files, which are then evaluated by the R code in the dataAnalysis/ folder.
online-study/:
React JavaScript sources and assets for the web front-end of the study.
online-study-flask-server-main/:
Flask server hosting the study content and managing the distribution and saving of results.
This folder also contains a compiled version of the React frontend from the online-study/ folder.
stimuliCreation/:
JavaScript and HTML code for the web page that generates and downloads the individual video stimulus frames and metadata.
