1. 1. Crossing the threshold : Visualization design and conceptual understanding of evolution

   Författare :Andreas C. Göransson; Lena Tibell; Konrad Schönborn; Anat Yarden; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Evolution; Natural selection; Visualization; Conceptual understanding; Conceptual change;

   Sammanfattning : The theory of evolution is considered the unifying theory of biology. An accurate understanding of evolution is vital both for the understanding of diverse topics in biology, but also for societal issues such as antibiotic resistance or biodiversity. LÄS MER

3. 2. Collision Threshold Pressure : A novel measure of voice function Effects of vocal warm-up, vocal loading and resonance tube phonation in water

   Författare :Laura Enflo; Anita McAllister; Johan Sundberg; Marc de Bodt; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :;

   Sammanfattning : The phonation threshold pressure (PTP), i.e., the smallest amount of subglottal pressure needed to initiate and sustain vocal fold oscillation, is frequently difficult to measure due to the difficulty for some subjects to produce extremely soft phonation. In addition, PTP values are often quite scattered. LÄS MER

4. 3. Tidens tröskel : Uppbrott och nostalgi i skandinavisk litteratur kring sekelskiftet 1900

   Författare :Anna Jörngården; Anders Olsson; Anna Williams; Arne Melberg; Stockholms universitet; []

   Sammanfattning : This study illuminates Scandinavian literature’s engagement with the fin de siècle as a momentous temporal threshold, when the widespread feeling of being poised on the brink of a distinctly modern age while at the same time witnessing the demise of the old world produced excitement as well as anxiety, a sense of loss and nostalgia. The dissertation explores how three male authors of the Scandinavian canon – Ola Hansson, August Strindberg and Knut Hamsun – depict the ambivalent experience of being torn between nostalgia and a heady sense of departure.

5. 4. Improved computerized perimetric threshold strategies

   Författare :Boel Bengtsson; Oftalmologi (Malmö); []
   Nyckelord :MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; probability maps; normal limits; test time; clinical testing; test strategies. glaucoma; test algorithms; false positive answers; Visual field testing; computerized perimetry; Ophtalmology; Oftalmologi;

   Sammanfattning : Perimetric threshold examination is the most important method for diagnosing and monitoring patients with glaucoma. Such examination, however, is time-consuming and often difficult for the elderly patients in whom glaucoma is prevalent. Shorter test strategies have been proposed, but unfortunately also with lower test quality. LÄS MER

7. 5. Building the city from the inside : architecture and urban transformation in Los Angeles, Porto, and Las Vegas

   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Interior urbanism; architecture; urban transformation; threshold; lobby; temporality; labor; atmosphere; aesthetics; estetik; design; design; Stadsbyggnad;

   Sammanfattning : Positioned in the research field of “interior urbanism” (Rice, 2016), this thesis considers entrance situations that occur between buildings and cities in order to develop new ways of investigating the relationship between architecture and urban transformation. From the main research question—How does architecture mediate urban transformation?—the thesis focuses on experience-driven narratives about the city (Pine & Gilmore, 2011). LÄS MER
