Pantomime is a means of bodily visual communication that is based on iconic gestures that are not fully conventional. It has become a key element in many models of language evolution and a strong candidate for the original human-specific communicative system (Zlatev et al. 2020). Although pantomime affords successful communication in many contexts, it has some semiotic limitations. In this study,
While in Modern Italian, V1 is mandatory in absolute constructions, no such restriction is operative in Old Italian. On the surface, such a fact could be interpreted as a sign of residual V-to-Comp movement in Modern Italian. However, it is not: In Old Italian, participles targeted a position lower than Comp and, hence, the V1 pattern of Modern Italian is an innovation rather than a residue from t

We consider two-dimensional irrotational steady gravity waves and derive new explicit analytical bounds for the velocity field and the slope of the free surface. Using an auxiliary function tailored to the streamfunction formulation, we obtain an explicit exponential decay estimate which is optimal for linear waves. The same method yields a new slope estimate that improves existing bounds in the m
The paper deals with durability of Self-Compacting Concrete with limestone filler during Thaumasite Sulphate Attack. For this purpose six concrete with varying amounts of limestone filler, particle size of limestone filler, pressure height during casting and mixing order were studied. One normal concrete (without limestone filler) with vibrator compaction was studied in parallel. In the ongoing ex
We characterize the boundedness of the Bergman projection on vector-valued L-2-spaces with operator-valued weights in terms of an appropriate condition of Muckenhoupt-type for the weight. This contrasts with the situation en Hardy spaces, where such characterizations are only possible in the finite-dimensional case. (C) 2011 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.
This paper investigates realisations of elliptic differential operators of general order on manifolds with boundary following the approach of Bär-Ballmann to first order elliptic operators. The space of possible boundary values of elements in the maximal domain is described as a Hilbert space densely sandwiched between two mixed order Sobolev spaces. The description uses Calderón projectors which,
We consider a nonlinear vertex-reinforced jump process (VRJP(w)) on Z with an increasing measurable weight function w : [1, ∞) → [1, ∞) and initial weights equal to one. Our main goal is to study the asymptotic behaviour of VRJP(w) depending on the integrability of the reciprocal of w. In particular, we prove that if (Equation presented). then the process is recurrent, that is, it visits each vert
Increased worldwide use for paediatric anaesthesia of the volatile anaesthetic agent sevoflurane has mainly resulted from its low blood-gas partition coefficient and low airway irritability, providing smooth conditions for rapid induction of anaesthesia. Nevertheless, there are several clinical and experimental reports suggesting a correlation between exposure to sevoflurane and generalized clonic
The stainless steel metal includes a large group of alloys and which one should choose for a process can be difficult to determine. Despite much research on corrosion, there is still disagreement on the impact of the corrosion resistance from passivation. This master thesis was assembled together with Tetra Pak to see the influence of passivation on stainless steels used in their processes. The g
When timber is used as a building material a connection is required between the elements in order to transfer the load. A typical connection is the steel to timber joint with nail as connectors. These connections can fail in ductile manner, causing the nails to reach their plastic moment capacity, or in brittle manner so called plug shear failure, causing the timber to fail in combined tension and
Due to the stochastic nature of SASE radiation its longitudinal coherence is limited to a small fraction of the electron bunch. By pre-bunching the electrons before entering a radiator, the FEL radiation is ensured to have the same initial phase all through the bunch. Echo enabled harmonic generation (EEHG) is a technique that, by cleverly using two modulators and two dispersive sections, creates
Working and walking environments often involve standing positions on different surfaces with inclination and different friction. In this study, standing balance of thirteen participants during sudden and irregular external perturbation to calf muscles while standing was investigated. The aim of the study was to evaluate the combined effect of surface inclination and friction on standing balance. T
Popular Abstract in Swedish Fall och frakturer hos äldre är ett vanligt förekommande och ökande hälsoproblem, som orsakar fysiska, sociala och psykologiska problem hos den enskilde och är kostsamt för samhället. Syftet med avhandlingen är att undersöka fallolyckor bland de patienter i åldern 65-74 år som kommit till ortopedklinikens akutmottagning, att undersöka reliabiliteten beträffande gångtestFalls and fractures in older people are a common and increasing health problem which causes physical, social and psychological problems for the individual and is costly to society. The aims of this thesis were to investigate accidental falls of patients aged 65 - 74 who attended an orthopedic emergency ward, to investigate reliability of the modified figure of eight (MFE) and compare it with other
This paper addresses design space exploration for streaming applications (such as MPEG) running on multi-processor platforms with guaranteed service interconnects. In particular, we solve mapping, path selection and router configuration problems. Given the complexity of these problems, state of the art approaches in this area largely rely on greedy heuristics, which do not guarantee optimality. Ou
We study several problems of clearing subgraphs by mobile agents in digraphs. The agents can move only along directed walks of a digraph and, depending on the variant, their initial positions may be pre-specified. In general, for a given subset S of vertices of a digraph D and a positive integer k, the objective is to determine whether there is a subgraph H=(VH,AH) of D such that (a) S⊆VH, (b) H i
Algorithms for secure encryption in a post-quantum world are currently receiving a lot of attention in the research community, including several larger projects and a standardization effort from NIST. One of the most promising algorithms is the code-based scheme called QC-MDPC, which has excellent performance and a small public key size. In this work we present a very efficient key recovery attack
