A study of the designer's cognitive processes during the later phases of the engineering design process

An increasing number of studies have been focusing on the cognitive abilities and limitations of the designer during the design process, yet thus far only for the conceptual design phase. This paper deals with the embodiment design and detail design phases. We focus on the problem-solving process - strategies and basic steps - around the synthesis activity. Six experiments have been carried out, a

Urban peer-to-peer MIMO channel measurements and analysis at 300 MHz

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems operating at frequencies in the upper VHF and lower UHF region is attractive for peer-to-peer communication applications where robustness is of high importance, e.g., in tactical networks and emergency response systems. When designing and evaluating such systems, knowledge of realistic propagation conditions is required. This paper presents results fro

Stages and transitions in children’s semiotic development

Stage models were prevalent in developmental psychology in the past, but have recently been subjected to much criticism. We propose “rehabilitation”, defining semiotic stage as a (not necessarily stable) period characterized by the clear establishment of a novel semiotic capacity, which may “dominate” the communication of the child at this stage, but does not replace capacities from previous

Teknologers förståelse av centrala begrepp i en kemiteknikkurs

Under första terminen på kemiteknik-programmet läser teknologerna matematik, kemi och kemiteknik. Kemiteknik är ett helt nytt ämne för teknologerna jämfört med de övriga. Den beräkningsmässiga delen av kemitekniken läses under 2 läsperioder. Ett didaktiskt projekt[1] har utförts där teknologernas förståelse av grundläggande begrepp undersöktes med hjälp av intervjuer vid två tillfällen under kurse

GABA in the islets of Langerhans

Popular Abstract in Swedish I denna avhandling har jag studerat frisättning samt effekter av GABA i de Langerhanska öarna i bukspottskörteln. GABA är en välkänd signalmolekyl i hjärnan och man vet att den där har en hämmande effekt på hjärncellerna. Detta betyder att GABAs effekter i hjärnan ofta är lugnande och/eller sövande. GABA finns även i höga koncentratitioner i de insulinproducerande β-celGABA (γ-aminobutyric acid) is a well-known inhibitory neurotransmitter in the CNS. GABA is also present at high concentrations in the insulin-producing β-cells in the islets of Langerhans, but its function there is less clear. GABA is believed to accumulate in SLMVs (synaptic-like microvesicles). These vesicles are different from the insulin-containing LDCVs (large dense-core vesicles). In this th
