Det är känt inom den typologiska lingvistiken att spatial rörelse uttrycks på olika sätt på olika språk. På svenska uttrycks ofta en rörelses sätt i verbroten och dess riktning i en till verbet knuten satellit (S-språk), då franskan vanligtvis däremot uttrycker rörelsens riktning i verbroten och utelämnar dess sätt (V-språk). Svensktalande föredrar i en given situation ett uttryck som en uggla komIt is well known within typological linguistics that the expression of motion is language-specific.

Active suspensions of microswimmers such as bacteria or microalgae are found in oceans or lakes, and within living organisms, such as the human body. These suspensions can exhibit complex flow patterns and enhanced diffusion of passive tracer particles due to the advection from the long-ranged dipolar flow fields of the swimmers. The diffusion of tracers at varying radii is poorly understood but o

The widespread consequences of climate change are becoming more and more evident around the world and are raising crucial awareness to world leaders that a sustainable transition is direly needed to mitigate against disastrous climatic events. In Australia, in early 2020, these events took the form of some of the most devastating and largest forest fires the country has ever seen. This devastation

However, within the academic research, behavior changes remain primarily focused on the individual level, while the behavior of companies that are responsible for elevated greenhouse gas emissions falls behind. This master’s thesis analyses the core values

Alzheimer’s Disease (AD), a neurodegenerative disease, defined by abnormal accumulation of proteins, both extracellularly (senile plaques, consisting of amyloid-beta(Aβ) accumulation) and intracellularly (neurofibrillary tangles, formed by Tau protein). Several studies demonstrate that the immune cells play a central role in the pathogenesis of AD, but it is not known if immune cells from the peri

Hur ska vi analysera elberoenden i framtiden? Hur analyseras elberoendet i samhället och vad borde ingå i en sådan analys? Detta har Kicki Rönnåker och Sofia Wennerbeck försökt ta reda på i en studie där vetenskapliga metoder jämförts med praktiska tillvägagångssätt för analyser av el. Den skillnad som hittades fick ligga till grund för ett antal förbättringsförslag som förhoppningsvis kommer kuIn Sweden, risk- and vulnerability assessments, including dependency analyses, are required by law for public actors who are of vital societal functions or critical infrastructure. However, there is a lack of guidance regarding how to perform this kind of analysis. Electrical power is one of the strongest dependencies of our society today. Thus, it is interesting to examine how the dependency of e
