  1. 1. Superimposition of Contractional Structures in Models and Nature

    Author : Hongling Deng; Hemin Koyi; Sudipta Sengupta; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; superimposition; progressive deformation; multiple phases; coaxial; non-coaxial; analogue modelling; fold-and-thrust belts; Geovetenskap med inriktning mot mineralogi; petrologi och tektonik; Earth Science with specialization in Mineral Chemistry; Petrology and Tectonics;

    Abstract : Superimposition of contractional structures is widely observed in different scales in the world. Superimposed structures form due to different processes: change in strain accommodation from one type of structure to another during a single progressive shortening; successive coaxial shortening phases separated by an unconformity; superimposition of different non-coaxial shortening phases.

    Abstract : Objectives: Study I: To evaluate the reliability and validity of different superimposition methods and to increase the precision with which craniofacial growth and treatment can be quantified. Study II: To explore the craniofacial changes that occur from early adolescence to late adulthood. READ MORE

  3. 3. The use of structural information to improve biological sequence similarity searches

    Author : Jeanette Tångrot; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Bioinformatik; Hidden Markov Model; HMM; protein structure alignment; protein structure superimposition; remote homologue; FISH-server; protein annotation; Bioinformatics; Bioinformatik;

    Abstract : Bioinformatics is a fast-developing field that make use of computational methods to analyse and structure biological data. An important branch of bioinformatics is structure and function prediction of proteins. To determine the structure of a protein is a crucial part in the characterisation of the molecule. READ MORE

  4. 4. Implementing Cognitive Semantics

    Author : Kenneth Holmqvist; Humanistlaboratoriet; []
    Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES;

    Abstract : This book is about how concepts are structured and processed. It is based on the findings in cognitive linguistics over the last decade, where thorough studies have been made about how concepts function. Concepts appear as image schemata, a spatial form of representation with very powerful properties. READ MORE
