  2. 1. Thoughts in Motion : The Role of Long-Term L1 and Short-Term L2 Experience when Talking and Thinking of Caused Motion

    Author : Guillermo Montero-Melis; Emanuel Bylund; T. Florian Jaeger; Henriëtte Hendriks; Lars Fant; Barbara C. Malt; Stockholms universitet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Linguistic relativity; language and thought; conceptualization; thinking for speaking; semantic typology; lexicalization patterns; events; caused motion; bilingualism; second language acquisition; transfer; adaptation; priming; Spanish; Swedish; Bilingualism; tvåspråkighet;

    Abstract : This thesis is about whether language affects thinking. It deals with the linguistic relativity hypothesis, which proposes that the language we speak influences the way we think. This hypothesis is investigated in the domain of caused motion (e.g. READ MORE

  4. 2. Small-scale multilingualism and language contact in egalitarian foragers

    Author : Joanne Yager; Allmän språkvetenskap; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; small-scale multilingualism; egalitarian language contact; egalitarian bilingualism; bilingual semantic interaction; crosslinguistic influence; lexical convergence; bilingual optimization strategies; Aslian; Austroasiatic; Jedek; Jahai; foragers; undiscovered languages; topological relations; caused motion events; reciprocal events; phylogenetic networks; small-scale multilingualism; egalitarian language contact; egalitarian bilingualism; bilingual semantic interaction; crosslinguistic influence; lexical convergence; bilingual optimization strategies; Aslian; Austroasiatic; Jedek; Jahai; foragers; undiscovered languages; topological relations; caused motion events; reciprocal events; phylogenetic networks;

    Abstract : Situations of multilingualism and language contact in which language varieties are small in scale and relatively equal in social status are important phenomena affecting processes of language change throughout human history. Despite this, our knowledge about the outcomes of multilingualism and language contact in this kind of setting remains limited. READ MORE

  5. 3. Athletic Sprint Start Biomechanics : Investigations into the relationships between three dimensional starting technique, first step width and performance

    Author : Paul Nicolas Sandamas; Anton Arndt; Elena M. Gutierrez-Farewik; Aki Salo; Gymnastik- och idrottshögskolan; []
    Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; sprint start; step width; biomechanics; performance; angular momentum; Medicin Teknik; Medicine Technology;

    Abstract : The block and early acceleration phase plays a very important role in the overall outcome of athletic sprint events. During this part of the race it is commonly observed that sprinters use a lower-body technique that involves the swing leg crossing medially in front of the athlete followed by wide steps. READ MORE

  6. 4. Event Based Sampling with Application to Spectral Estimation

    Author : Niclas Persson; Fredrik Gustafsson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Event based sampling; Time based sampling; Tire pressure monitoring system;

    Abstract : In this thesis event based sampling, estimation of a single resonance frequency and the application indirect tire pressure monitoring system are studied.Event based sampling is an alternative to traditional uniform or equidistant sampling. In event based sampled systems, signals are sampled only when certain pre-defined events take place. READ MORE

  7. 5. Interaction between High-velocity Penetrators and Moving Armour Components

    Author : Ewa Lidén; Bengt Lundberg; Hevré Couque; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot hållfasthetslära; Engineering Science with specialization in Solid Mechanics;

    Abstract : This work was aimed at understanding mechanisms of importance for the design of weight-efficient armour against long-rod projectiles (LRP) and shaped charge (SC) warheads. The focus was on how to achieve effective mechanical disturbances on the threat before it hits the target. READ MORE
