  1. 1. Knowledge predication : A semantic typology

    Författare :Anna Sjöberg; Bernhard Wälchli; Maria Koptjevskaja-Tamm; Volker Gast; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; semantic typology; constructional typology; semantic maps; knowledge; epistemology; parallel texts; language sampling; token-based typology; cognitive semantics; Linguistics; lingvistik;

    Sammanfattning : The present thesis is an investigation of the cross-linguistic expression of knowledge predication (‘He knows that it’s raining’, ‘she knows the boy’ etc.) Knowledge predication is investigated in parallel texts—specifically New Testament translations—in a genealogically and areally stratified variety sample of 83 languages.

    Författare :Jakob Håkansson Eklund; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Emotion; action; similarity of experience; understanding; altruism; subject view; interpersonal phenomenon; morality; foreign experience;

    Sammanfattning : Although empathy is the phenomenon that connects otherwise isolated individuals, knowledge concerning the nature of this phenomenon is still scarce. This thesis presents three studies on empathy based on qualitative and quantitative data. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Relatedness put in place : on the effects of proximity on firm performance

    Författare :Lisa Östbring; Urban Lindgren; Rikard Eriksson; Thomas Brenner; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Cognitive proximity; labor mobility; knowledge; plant performance; relatedness; proximity dimensions; Social and Economic Geography; kulturgeografi;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis contributes to recent theorizations in economic geography on the effects of proximity on firm competitiveness. One of the great challenge in the contemporary economy is for firms to remain competitive. Their innovative ability is highly dependent on the knowledge they possess and their ability to acquire new knowledge. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Background. Traditional plant use was studied in Lao PDR. Research focused on medicinal plant use by the Brou, Saek and Kry ethnic groups, traditional plant repellents against parasitic arthropods and leeches, and the phylogeny and biogeography of the medicinally-important snake gourd genus (Trichosanthes, Cucurbitaceae).  Methods.

  7. 5. Studies of the fibre direction and local bending stiffness of Norway spruce timber : for application on machine strength grading

    Författare :Min Hu; Marie Johansson; Mats Ekevad; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Nyckelord :LANTBRUKSVETENSKAPER; AGRICULTURAL SCIENCES; digital image correlation; diving angle; fibre angle; grain angle; indicating property; laser scanning; modulus of elasticity; tracheid effect; Forestry and Wood Technology; Skog och träteknik;

    Sammanfattning : Machine strength grading is a production process in the sawmill industry used to grade sawn timber boards into different strength classes with specific characteristic values of the bending strength, modulus of elasticity (MOE) and density. These properties are called grade determining properties. LÄS MER
