A Naturalistic Perspective on Knowledge How : Grasping Truths in a Practical Way

For quite some time, cognitive science has offered philosophy an opportunity to address central problems with an arsenal of relevant theories and empirical data. However, even among those naturalistically inclined, it has been hard to find a universally accepted way to do so. In this article, we offer a case study of how cognitive-science input can elucidate an epistemological issue that has causeFor quite some time, cognitive science has offered philosophy an opportunity to address central problems with an arsenal of relevant theories and empirical data.

Learning Based Model Predictive Control of Combustion Timing in Multi-Cylinder Partially Premixed Combustion Engine

Partially Premixed Combustion (PPC) has shown to be a promising advanced combustion mode for future engines in terms of efficiency and emission levels. The combustion timing should be suitably phased to realize high efficiency. However, a simple constant model based predictive controller is not sufficient for controlling the combustion during transient operation. This article proposed one learning

Analys av geografiska data

I detta kapitel i boken Geografisk information Behandling beskrivs och behandlas metoder för hur geografisk data analyseras. Kapitlet omfattar såväl geografisk teori som exempel på tillämpningar. Geografisk informationsbehandling baseras på insamling, lagring, analys och visualisering av geografiska data. Denna indelning utgör också grunden för bokens disposition. Boken är i första hand avsedd för

Inequality and Uneven Development in Ghana

This dissertation investigates the extent and evolution of income and educational inequality, as well as governments’ tax and expenditure policies and their implications for inequality in Ghana over the long-term. The results of the dissertation are presented in four-thematically related papers. Paper I uses a social tables approach to measure the extent of income inequality in colonial Ghana and

Legitimitet genom legalitet?

Law is everywhere – Rätten finns överallt. Det uttrycket kan beskriva rättens roll i våra liv. Utöver formella lagar, regleringar och avtal möter vi i vår vardag även informella lagar och sociala normer: i familjen, i skolan, på arbetsplatsen och i samhället i stort. De styr både hur vi tänker och agerar och vad vi förväntar oss av andra. Rättssociologi handlar om att analysera relationen mellan r

Tunable separation and DNA manipulation in metal coated pillar arrays

Implementing electrically connected metal-coated posts in a Deterministic Lateral Displacement (DLD) device and applying electric fields, we use electrokinetics to achieve tunable particle separations and to trap and manipulate DNA. The strength of DLD stems from its typically binary behavior. Particles move in one out of two trajectories based on their effective size. For particles that are close

ACouWash : A standalone instrument for the washing, separation and enrichment of cells.

We developed the AcouWash (Figures 1 and 2), a benchtop instrument for flow-through cell and particle separation by acoustophoresis. Building on previous research [1-4] AcouWash can re-suspend cells in new medium, separate cells based on size or acoustic properties, or enrich cells, Figure 3. We present our initial evaluation of AcouWash regarding size-based separation of particles, cell washing,

Method for selecting optimal operation frequencies in bulk acoustophoretic devices

We report a new method to select the optimal actuation frequencies in bulk acoustophoresis devices, by means of differential impedance spectrum analysis measured via the actuating piezoelectric transducer (piezo). The impedance spectra is rich of large spurious resonance peaks originating from bulk resonances not related to the channel resonance, Fig. 1a, why direct measurement of the piezo impeda

Integrated on-chip system for DNA purification, labelling and surface stretching

We report a simplified, integrated and more efficient way of preparing DNA for analysis. We have developed a microfluidic platform that can purify DNA and subsequently label and stretch it on a surface. We have successfully extracted DNA from a gel-filled microfluidic channel using electrophoresis and subsequently stretched the DNA linearly by absorption to either a hydrophobic or a positively-cha
