The Useworthiness of Robots for People with Physical Disabilities
Popular Abstract in Swedish Avhandlingen behandlar robotteknik och de nya möjligheter som den kan ge människor med rörelsehinder. Jag fokuserar på teknikanvändaren och teknikanvändningen, speciellt på vad som gör robothjälpmedel värda att använda. Distinktion görs mellan användvärdhet och användbarhet. Erfarenheter från användning av den rullstolsmonterade robotarmen Manus visar att tekniska kravThis thesis deals with robotics and the new possibilities it offers people with physical disabilities. I focus on the user and the use of the technology and, in particular, on what makes robotic aids worth using - useworthiness as distinguished from usability. User experience of the wheelchair-mounted Manus manipulator shows that robotic arms must meet technical requirements in terms of accelerat

Light-in-flight recording. 5: Theory of slowing down the faster-than-light motion of the light shutter
Light-in-flight recording by holography uses a picosecond pulse for the reference beam, which like a sheet of light intersects the hologram plate and produces a sensitivity area that with a speed faster than light moves over the plate like a light shutter. If, however, the front of the reference pulse by diffraction in a grating is tilted relative to its direction of motion, the velocity of the li
Towards a responsive functional material: Modification of porosity and grafting of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) in mesoporous silica SBA-15
Popular Abstract in English Figure 1: Electron microscopy image of mesoporous material seen from above. The left image shows a possible shape of a silica particle (scale bar: 1 μm). The right image shows the mesopores in the particle (grey color) with the silicon dioxide walls (black color) (scale bar: 150 nm). Poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAM) is a polymer that can provide the active part forMesoporous silica materials, such as SBA-15, have potential as biocompatible carriers for pharmaceutical applications as well as mini-reactors in e.g. catalysis. This potential arises from their well-defined porous structure on the nanometre scale accompanied by a high internal surface area (800 - 1000 m2/g). This work addresses the following issues. i) Surface grafted PNIPAAM was found to be loca

Bankmannen : en etnologisk studie av yrkesvardag och yrkesidentitet 1945-1995
The professional daily life of bank employees has drastically changed in many ways over the course of the period spanning from 1945 to 1995: computerization has affected the manner of working; a broader and more comprehensive assortment of services is now offered; the bank employees'corps has gone from being composed of two thirds men, to being made up of two thirds women; and changes in society h

Molecular Imprinting Technology. Design and Recognition Properties of Antibody/Receptor Mimics
Molecular imprinting technology is derived from the concept of creating designed recognition sites in macromolecular matrices by means of template polymerisation. Molecularly imprinted polymers are able to mimic recognition in natural binding events, such as antibody-antigen and receptor-ligand interactions. This thesis addresses some aspects of the preparation of molecularly imprinted polymers an

Stationary stochastic processes for scientists and engineers
Stochastic processes are indispensable tools for development and research in signal and image processing, automatic control, oceanography, structural reliability, environmetrics, climatology, econometrics, and many other areas of science and engineering. Suitable for a one-semester course, Stationary Stochastic Processes for Scientists and Engineers teaches students how to use these processes effi

Social Motivations and Goal Orientations with a Teachable Agent: Implications for Improving Test Performance
A recent study of ours suggested that the very presence of a Teachable Agent (TA) from a mathematics learning game might affect students’ test performance when the TA reappeared in the margin of a regular, digital math test. We hypothesized that this effect, which seemed to particularly target low-achievers, was due to the students’ mindset changing from that of “taking a test” to that of “teachin
