1. Thoughts in Motion : The Role of Long-Term L1 and Short-Term L2 Experience when Talking and Thinking of Caused Motion
Sammanfattning : This thesis is about whether language affects thinking. It deals with the linguistic relativity hypothesis, which proposes that the language we speak influences the way we think. This hypothesis is investigated in the domain of caused motion (e.g. LÄS MER
2. Small-scale multilingualism and language contact in egalitarian foragers
Sammanfattning : Situations of multilingualism and language contact in which language varieties are small in scale and relatively equal in social status are important phenomena affecting processes of language change throughout human history. Despite this, our knowledge about the outcomes of multilingualism and language contact in this kind of setting remains limited. LÄS MER
3. Athletic Sprint Start Biomechanics : Investigations into the relationships between three dimensional starting technique, first step width and performance
Sammanfattning : The block and early acceleration phase plays a very important role in the overall outcome of athletic sprint events. During this part of the race it is commonly observed that sprinters use a lower-body technique that involves the swing leg crossing medially in front of the athlete followed by wide steps. LÄS MER
4. Event Based Sampling with Application to Spectral Estimation
Sammanfattning : In this thesis event based sampling, estimation of a single resonance frequency and the application indirect tire pressure monitoring system are studied.Event based sampling is an alternative to traditional uniform or equidistant sampling. In event based sampled systems, signals are sampled only when certain pre-defined events take place. LÄS MER
5. Interaction between High-velocity Penetrators and Moving Armour Components
Sammanfattning : This work was aimed at understanding mechanisms of importance for the design of weight-efficient armour against long-rod projectiles (LRP) and shaped charge (SC) warheads. The focus was on how to achieve effective mechanical disturbances on the threat before it hits the target. LÄS MER
