  2. 6. In Search of Prototypes and Feminist Bank-Tellers: Exploring the Representativeness Heuristic

    Author : Håkan Nilsson; Peter Juslin; Karl Halvor Teigen; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : Psychology; Cognitive psychology; Subjective probability; Representativeness heuristic; PROBEX; Category learning; Cognitive modeling; Conjunction fallacy; Psykologi;

    Abstract : According to the heuristics and biases approach, the representativeness heuristic (RH) is one of the heuristics available for assessing subjective probabilities (A. Tversky & D. Kahneman, 1974). A subjective probability assessed by the RH is determined by how representative the target object is of the target category. READ MORE

  4. 7. Numerical Investigations of Turbulent Flow in Water Turbines

    Author : Håkan Nilsson; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Multiblock; Parallel; Visualization; Validation; Verification; Turbine; CFD; Francis; Numerical; Kaplan;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates turbulent flow in water turbines, focusing onthe flow in the vicinity of reaction water turbine runners such as theKaplan runner and the Francis runner. The method of investigationis principally numerical although some experimental observations andmeasurements made in the present work and elsewhere are included. READ MORE

  5. 8. Substrate water binding to the oxygen-evolving complex in photosystem II

    Author : Håkan Nilsson; Johannes Messinger; Wolfgang Schröder; Robert L. Burnap; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Photosynthesis; Photosystem II; water oxidation; oxygen evolution; substrate water exchange; membrane-inlet mass spectrometry;

    Abstract : Oxygenic photosynthesis in plants, algae and cyanobacteria converts sunlight into chemical energy. In this process electrons are transferred from water molecules to CO2 leading to the assembly of carbohydrates, the building blocks of life. READ MORE

  6. 9. Comfort climate evaluation with thermal manikin methods and computer simulation models

    Author : Håkan O. Nilsson; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; equivalent temperature; subject; thermal manikin; mannequin; thermal climate assessment; heat loss; office environment; cabin climate; ventilated seat; computer model; CFD; clothing-independent; comfort zone diagram; Civil engineering and architecture; Samhällsbyggnadsteknik och arkitektur;

    Abstract : Increasing concern about energy consumption and the simultaneous need for an acceptable thermal environment makes it necessary to estimate in advance what effect different thermal factors will have on the occupants. Temperature measurements alone do not account for all climate effects on the human body and especially not for local effects of convection and radiation. READ MORE
