    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; eighteenth century; sociolinguistics; semantics; experiential realism; gender role; conceptual model; prototype; frame; domain; collocation; metaphor; male; female; epicene; spirit matter; power dependency; active passive; varied limited;

    Sammanfattning : A corpus of terms for human beings collected from 18th century novels is studied from a broad sociolinguistic perspective. A summary of recent linguistic theories and a survey of 18th century culture and society are provided as background. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Learning Spatiotemporal Features in Low-Data and Fine-Grained Action Recognition with an Application to Equine Pain Behavior

    Författare :Sofia Broomé; Hedvig Kjellström; Efstratios Gavves; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Equine pain; computer vision for animals; deep learning; deep video models; spatiotemporal features; video understanding; action recognition; frame dependency; video data; end-to-end learning; temporal modeling; Datalogi; Computer Science;

    Sammanfattning : Recognition of pain in animals is important because pain compromises animal welfare and can be a manifestation of disease. This is a difficult task for veterinarians and caretakers, partly because horses, being prey animals, display subtle pain behavior, and because they cannot verbalize their pain. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Some aspects of the dynamic soil-structure interaction of a portal frame bridge

    Författare :Mahir Ülker-Kaustell; Raid Karoumi; Mohammed Hjiaj; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Building engineering; Byggnadsteknik;

    Sammanfattning : For certain bridge types, the influence of soil-structure interaction (SSI) may have an important contribution to the stiffness and damping of the structural system. From a design point of view, this influence may be both conservative and non-conservative and therefore, an increased knowledge within this field could lead to better design assumptions. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Turbulence Modelling for Internal Cooling of Gas-Turbine Blades

    Författare :Jonas Bredberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Sammanfattning : Numerical simulations of geometrical configurations similar to those present in the internal cooling ducts within gas turbine blades have been performed. The flow within these channels are characterized by heat transfer enhancement ribs, sharp bends, rotation and buoyancy effects. LÄS MER

    Författare :Anders Persson; Utbildningsvetenskap; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; sociology; educational sciences; makt; makt och motstånd; maktutövning; skola; skoplikt; utbildning; pedagogiska praktiker; lönearbetsberoende; reformism; sociologi; utbildningsvetenskap; skolforskning; maktteori; djupfostran; rättfärdigande; ytfostran; lönearbete; beroende; tvång; obligatorisk skola;

    Sammanfattning : The aim of this work is to investigate the internal dynamics of power-exercising in compulsory school and wage labor. The exercise of power is structured by four interrelated power-practices: maintenance, that is the practice which produce and reproduce a power relation through, among other things, the enrolment of subordinates; acculturation, the alteration-of-man power that is exercised inside the power relation; relegation, the power resulting in the removal of subordinates out of the power relation; and justification, the construction of representations which aim at presenting power relations as reasonable and justified.
