The Role of Language Context in Mental Imagery: A Cross-Linguistic Investigation

Mental Imagery (MI) allows us to simulate real-life experiences and visualise events we have never witnessed, but what happens when we change the language of the narrative? This study investigated how language context (L1 vs. L2) influences the vividness of mental imagery and the emotional intensity associated with that imagery during narrative comprehension. A total of 58 sequential bilinguals fr

Facing Mortality: A Meta-Analysis and Systematic Review of Psychedelic Experiences and Death Anxiety

Design of Blue-Green Infrastructure Network in Kigali, Rwanda: A Case Study of the Green City Kigali Project on Kinyinya Hill

En stigande global temperatur rubbar den naturliga hydrologiska cykeln, något som resulterar i alltmer frekventa och extrema översvämningar, men också längre perioder av torka och vattenbrist. I Kigali, Rwanda, leder klimatförändringarna till stora utmaningar i stadsutveckling och allmän säkerhet. Som svar på problemet, har Rwandas regering skapat projektet Green City Kigali, med syfte att utvecklRising global temperatures are disrupting the natural hydrological cycle, leading to both increased frequency and severity of flooding events, as well as prolonged periods of water scarcity. In Kigali, Rwanda, these shifts pose substantial challenges to urban development and public safety. In response, the Government of Rwanda is pursuing further development of Kigali through the Green City Kigali

Flow distribution in an industrial application for diverse fluid types

Helios Innovations har idag problem med spridarna i sin indunstningsteknik, där flytande farligt avfall fördelas över evaporativa block. De industriella duschmunstycken som används tenderar att sätta igen och orsaka ojämn spridning av vätskan. Målet med detta examensarbete har varit att utveckla en förbättrad design av spridaren.
