In this paper, we concentrate on the reconstruction of the participants' internal images during spoken discourse. Our question is: What happens if the speaker draws to illustrate something in the discourse? The focus movements should then leave traces in the drawing, that could tell us how the focus of attention moves over the undrawn internal image of speaker and listener.The first part of this p

De ekonomiska effekterna av resfria möten (RM) har jämförts med en organisations omsättning och beräknas i snitt uppgå till: reducerat behov tjänsteresor: 1 procent; ökade IT-kostnader: 0,25 procent och insparad restid: 0,5 procent. Effekten av ökad effektivitet och flexibilitet för de anställda och för organisationen är mer svårbedömd; men den kan vara lika stor som de andra effekterna tillsamman

The common claim that the notion of collective action must figure in the content of the attitudes of the parties to a collective action gives rise to a circularity challenge. Standard responses to this challenge are criticized. This article’s solution exploits a notion of collectivity that does not presuppose intention: a purely causal conception that can be explicated in terms of dispositions and

Water vapor condensation and two-phase flow appear in plate heat exchangers being used as condensers. Analysis of water phase change and flow dynamics is an important but complicated task due to large change in water physical/transport properties across the water liquid-vapor interface boundary. In particular, a singular-link behaviour in Navier-Stokes (N-S) equations is present due to the large s

Popular AbstractAvhandlingen presenterar, från ett fenomenologiskt perspektiv, interaktionen mellan naturvetenskapens kunskap och annan kunskap, här kallad "vardagskunskap". Utgångspunkten i presentationen är människans existens. Två aspekter av denna lyfts fram som centrala - att människan är kroppsligt utsatt för, berörd av, något hon inte har full kontroll över, samt att hon alltid agerar utifrThe dissertation presents a phenomenological view on the interaction between science knowledge and prescientific knowledge. Drawing on Husserl, Merleau-Ponty and Lévinas the human bodily grounded existence is described, the central feature of this existence being its responsivity to the Other. This responsivity is presented as the starting point for the production of science knowledge, thus making

This work is theoretical analyses of heat transfer across film a flowing over the surface of a rotating disk. This field has wide industrial applications in Turbomachinery, chemical, and food industries. An analytical study is developed to investigate the heat transfer characteristics in the liquid film due to jet impinging at the center of the disk. A theoretical model is based on heat balance an

Antibody-based microarrays have emerged as an established proteomic technology allowing multiplexed and sensitive profiling of complex proteomes, in a high-throughput and miniaturized manner. Recently, numerous applicative efforts have been pursued generating disease-associated protein signatures that now could be further explored for improved disease diagnostics, prognostics and classification.

Body-coupled communications (BCC), in which the human body is used as a communications channel, has been shown to be a promising solution for wireless body-area networks (WBANs). For successful deployment of these BCC-based WBANs, it is necessary to develop a clear understanding of the channel behavior. Therefore, this paper presents the key characteristics of the capacitively-coupled on-body chan

We cannot directly uncover the contents of our mind but we can come closer to cognitive processes via overt manifestations. I am interested in how speakers perceive, conceptualise and spontaneously describe complex pictures on higher levels of discourse and I use eye tracking methodology along with verbal protocols and a multimodal scoring method to study these mental processes. In the studies on
