The chapter defines mimetic schemas as dynamic, concrete and preverbal representations, involving the body image, which are accessible to consciousness, and pre-reflectively shared in a community. Mimetic schemas derive from a uniquely human capacity for bodily mimesis (Donald 1991; Zlatev, Persson and Gardenfors 2005) and are argued to play a key role in language acquisition, language evolution a
Ethnologists, philosophers and anthropologists demonstrate ways of relating phenomenology to the analysis of culture.
The interaction of bi-isonicotinic acid (4,4[prime]-dicarboxy-2,2[prime]-bipyridine) with the Au(111) surface has been investigated using electron spectroscopic techniques. Near edge x-ray absorption fine structure (NEXAFS) spectra show that monolayers of the molecule lie flat to the surface and also reveal that the monolayer is sensitive to the preparation conditions employed. Core level x-ray ph
Popular Abstract in Swedish I detta arbete har lösningsegenskaperna av treblocksampolymerer samt deras växelverkan med tensider i utspädda vattenlösningar studerats med hjälp av statisk och dynamiskljusspridning i kombination med andra experimentella tekniker så som kalorimetri, lågvinkel röntgenspridning och själv-diffusionskärnspinresonans. Både hur treblocksampolymerer bildar olika typer av aggThe solution properties of dilute aqueous solutions of poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO-PPO-PEO) triblock copolymers and their interaction with surfactants have been investigated using static and dynamic light scattering, combined with small angle X-ray scattering, calorimetry and nuclear magnetic resonance techniques. In aqueous solution, the triblock copolyme
The ammoxidation of propane is commonly regarded as being the future route for producing acrylonitrile, and the Mo-V-Nb-Te-oxide system studied here has thus far been seen as the most promising candidate for achieving this. Yields of up to 62% have been presented very elegantly in the patent literature. A great disadvantage has been, however, that the crystalline quality of the catalyst tends to b
Intracerebral neural transplantation offers a new strategy to combat Parkinson’s and Huntington’s diseases. However, a host immune response against a histoincompatible neural graft in the brain may jeopardize transplant survival. We transplanted dissociated mesencephalic tissue prepared from Sprague-Dawley (SD) (syngeneic), Lewis (allogeneic) rats or mice (xenogeneic), into 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OH
This thesis explores the changing patterns of employment and income assimilation among male immigrants to Sweden. In brief, the results of this work are that immigrants have been facing an increasingly difficult time integrating into the Swedish economy. This difficulty has not been caused by decreasing “quality” of the newer immigrant cohorts, as has often been the argument in the literature. Rat
This thesis concerns the numerical simulations and modelling of the flow structure and scalar transport in stirred reactors. For this Large Eddy Simulations (LES) have been used. The flow situation in a stirred reactor includes several flow phenomena that are not well predicted by "standard" two-equation models, e.g. swirl, stagnation points and anisotropic turbulence. Also, using LES one can obta
