  1. 21. The Influence of Modality Combinations on Communication in Collaborative Virtual Environments

    Författare :Jonas Moll; Eva-Lotta Sallnäs-Pysander; Kerstin Severinson Eklundh; Stephen Brewster; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Haptics; Audio; Multimodality; Collaboration; Communication;

    Sammanfattning : Although many studies have been performed on collaboration in multimodal interfaces not many of these have looked specifically on how the supported modalities influence the task solving strategies chosen and the communication between users solving a joint task in collaborative virtual environments. Therefore, the thesis studies performed aimed at shedding light on these aspects of multimodality. LÄS MER

  2. 22. Spaces, mobilities and youth biographies in the New Sweden : Studies on education governance and social inclusion and exclusion

    Författare :Joakim Lindgren; Christina Segerholm; Héctor Pérez Prieto; Umeå universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; education governance; social exclusion; biography; space; mobility; performativity; Education; Pedagogik; pedagogik; Education;

    Sammanfattning : The main theme of this thesis is the relation between education governance and social inclusion and exclusion. Overall the thesis is based on a life history approach were biographical interviews with young people are complemented with other contextual data such as survey data, longitudinal statistics, interviews with local politicians and school actors and local reports.

  3. 23. Numerical simulation of elastohydrodynamic and hydrodynamic lubrication using the Navier-Stokes and Reynolds equations

    Författare :Torbjörn Almqvist; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maskinelement; Machine Elements;

    Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis concerns computer simulations of the lubrication process. The main subject of interest is elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) and, to some extent, hydrodynamic lubrication (HD). The thesis comprises an introductory section and three papers; referred to as A, B and C. LÄS MER

  4. 24. Computational fluid dynamics in theoretical simulations of elastohydrodynamic lubrication

    Författare :Torbjörn Almqvist; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Maskinelement; Machine Elements;

    Sammanfattning : The work presented in this thesis concerns computer simulations of lubrication processes, and the main part deals with simulations in the elastohydrodynamic lubrication (EHL) regime. The thesis summarises the work performed in the five papers referred to as Paper A, B, C, D and E. LÄS MER

  5. 25. Building the basis for primary prevention : factors related to cigarette smoking and alcohol use among adolescents

    Författare :Álfgeir Logi Kristjansson; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : Background: Cigarette smoking and alcohol use influence morbidity and premature death all over the world. Studies have shown that most life-time smokers and adult heavy drinkers began their use during their adolescent years and between 80-90% of them before the age of 18. LÄS MER
