Cette thèse porte sur l'étude de nanofils silicium réalisés par approche top-down. Elle s'inscrit dans le contexte de la miniaturisation des composants et la compréhension du transport dans les systèmes 1D. Deux voies de fabrication sont envisagées: la lithographie par AFM (Microscope à Force Atomique) et la lithographie électronique. Cette dernière étant plus reproductible, les dispositifs finaux sont fabriqués par cette technique, à partir d'un substrat SOI et plusieurs étapes de gravure et métallisation. L'étude des nanofils par mesures l(V) nous permet de mettre en évidence une zone déplétée à l'interface Si/SiO2 natif. Grâce à l'utilisation de nanofils de largeurs et de longueurs différentes, nous sommes capables de déterminer la largeur de la zone déplétée, la densité d'états d'interface ainsi que le niveau de dopage des nanofils. L'évolution de la résistance des nanofils avec la température est également étudiée et montre une dépendance associée à la diffusion des phonons de surface. Trois applications sont ensuite décrites : un décodeur, un commutateur de courant et un capteur biologique. En effet, la gravure locale des nanofils conduit à une modulation de la bande de conduction, rendant possible la réalisation d'un décodeur. D'autre part, la fabrication de croix à base de nanofils et de grilles latérales à proximité des croix qui contrôlent le passage du courant dans les différentes branches permet de former un commutateur de courant. Enfin, grâce au rapport important de la surface par rapport au volume des nanofils et leur bonne fonctionnalisation chimiques, ceux-ci sont utilisés pour détecter électriquement des interactions biologiques (détection de l'ovalbumine).

This work focuses on the study of silicon nanowires made by a top-down approach. The context of the study is the miniaturisation of the components and the understanding of the transport in 1D systems. Two fabrication approaches are studied : AFM lithography (Atomic Force Microscope) and e-beam lithography. The latter being more reproducible, the final devices are fabricated by this technique using a SOI substrate and multiple steps of etching and metallization.Transport characterization of the Si nanowires allows us to highlight a depleted area at the interface Si/native SiO2. Using nanowires with different widths and lengths, we can determine the depletion width, the surface state density as well as the doping level of the nanowires. The evolution of the nanowires resistance with temperature is also investigated, showing a dependence associated with surface phonons scattering. In the last chapter, three applications are described : a decoder, a current switch and a biosensor. The use of a local etching allows the modulation of the conduction band of the nanowires, opening the way to build a decoder using two local gates. Crossbar structures, where lateral gates which can derive the current in the di_erent branches, lead to the fabrication of a current switch. Finally, thanks to the large surface to volume ratio in these structures, the…

▼ The emergence of metamaterials has expanded the understanding of materials and their associated functionalities beyond the scope of naturally occurring substances. By properly engineering the electric and magnetic resonances of meta-atoms, which have a length scale smaller than the incident wavelength, novel artificial materials can be constructed. This research investigates novel optical metamaterials that are designed and fabricated with optimized subwavelength nanostructures and properly chosen constituent materials to meet user-specified criteria. Both top-down and bottom-up integration techniques were developed to explore the palette of materials and nanostructures that can be accessed. First, precisely defined subwavelength nanostructures fabricated using conventional top-down techniques were exploited to synthesize a metamaterial absorber, metamaterial waveplates, and a dielectric magnetic mirror. A single-layer metal nanostructure array that had been optimized by genetic algorithm was demonstrated to achieve near-ideal absorptivity from 1.77 μm to 4.86 μm and over incidence angles up to 45. The performance of the fabricated absorber was verified using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. A half-wave plate and a quarter-wave plate that exhibit polarization conversion ratios and reflectivity greater than 92% from 640 nm to 1290 nm with incident angles up to 40 were investigated. A Mie resonance-based amorphous silicon nanoresonator array was designed, resulting in a lossless magnetic mirror at 1 m with near unity reflectivity and zero reflection phase. The fabricated waveplates and magnetic mirror were characterized with custom-built measurement setups, and the results show excellent agreement with the design targets. Secondly, an alternative hybrid top-down and bottom-up integrated technique was developed to increase the range of materials and nanostructures beyond those available when using conventional top-down techniques and to synthesize optical metamaterials with reconfigurable structures/functionalities. A directed self-assembly strategy was investigated using an applied electric field to deterministically assemble pre-synthesized nanoparticles into predefined locations and to modulate the patterned structures. Based on this approach, reconfigurable two-dimensional ordered gold nanowire lattices with AC frequency-dependent lattice spacing were demonstrated. Electric field simulations and electric force calculations were performed to understand the formation of the lattices. Finally, a simplified electrical equivalent resistor and capacitor (RC) model was developed to explain the observed frequency dependent periodicity change.

La miniaturisation des composants électroniques de l'échelle micro à l'échelle nano a entrainé aussi une miniaturisation des systèmes micro électromécaniques (MEMS). Cependant, la transition de MEMS à NEMS (systèmes nano électromécaniques) ne se résume pas simplement une réduction de taille. En fait, les méthodes d'actionnement et de détection utilisées couramment à l'échelle micro ne sont pas toujours efficaces à l'échelle nano. En plus, la fabrication des composants nanométriques avec des méthodes top-down est un défi à cause des limites de résolution. En surmontant ces difficultés, nous avons fabriqué et caractérisé des résonateurs à base de nanofils en silicium suspendus avec des petites sections de 30nm par 40nm et de longueurs allant de 1.5-3.5μm. L'actionnement de ces résonateurs est électrostatique et la détection est effectué avec deux mécanismes indépendants : (i) l'effet piezo résistif de deuxième ordre et (ii) l'effet de champ. Les mesures en régime statique nous ont permis de valider la présence de ces deux mécanismes et d'extraire les paramètres correspondants tels que le facteur de jauge et la transconductance du nanofil. Aussi, pour la première fois, ces deux principes ont été utilisés en alternance pour détecter la résonance du même nanofil. Les résultats obtenus avec ces transductions sont très prometteurs. La distinction entre les deux méthodes de transduction a été possible grâce à l'hétérodynage qui permet de sélectionner des phénomènes qui se produisent à la fréquence naturelle du dispositif ou au double de cette fréquence. Dans le but d'évaluer les performances de ces résonateurs pour de potentielles applications, nous avons mesuré la variance d'Allan. La stabilité de ces résonateurs pour des temps courts est du même ordre que celle des MEMS en silicium ce qui permet d'envisager l'utilisation de nanofils de silicium pour concevoir des bases de temps. Ces dispositifs nanométriques peuvent également être utilisés comme détecteur de masse avec des résolutions en masse de l'ordre du zg

The continuous miniaturization of electronics from micro to nano scale has impacted also the micro electromechanical systems (MEMS). However, the transition from MEMS to NEMS (nano electromechanical systems) is not only a matter of size. The actuation and detection principles used for efficient transduction at the microscale are not always efficient at the nanoscale. Also, top-down fabrication for nanometric devices becomes challenging due to resolution limits. Overcoming such difficulties, we were able to fabricate and characterize suspended silicon nanowire resonators with cross sections as small as 30nm by 40nm and lengths of 1.5-3.5μm. The actuation of these resonators was electrostatic, while the detection was performed with two independent physical phenomena: (i) the piezoresistive effect of second order and (ii) the field-effect. Measurements in static regime permitted us to validate the presence of these two mechanisms and extract related parameters such as the gauge factor and the nanowire…

Trata do desenvolvimento de uma metodologia para parametrização de equipamentos mecânicos pressurizados. Objetiva criar sistemas para geração de famílias de equipamentos petroquímicos e reduzir o tempo total de elaboração do projeto, desenhos e listas de materiais em até 80%, diminuir em até 70% o tempo consumido na geração de fichas de corte e mapas de solda na execução de roteiros de fabricação e ainda aprimorar a aquisição de materiais e componentes devido à padronização das entradas de projeto. Relata que os sistemas CAD (Computer-Aided Design) tridimensionais paramétricos têm papel cada vez mais destacado no desenvolvimento de equipamentos, porém alguns setores tradicionais da indústria brasileira apresentam ainda certa resistência ao emprego desta tecnologia. Demonstra que diante dos desafios impostos pela exploração de petróleo na camada do Pré-Sal e o grande volume de investimentos da PETROBRAS na expansão do setor produtivo ligado à extração e refino de petróleo, as empresas fornecedoras de equipamentos para o setor petroquímico são obrigadas a se modernizar e buscar novos paradigmas de projeto e fabricação para atender à demanda. Explica que o emprego produtivo de sistemas CAD 3D paramétricos se torna essencial neste cenário. Aplica a metodologia que foi desenvolvida baseada na abordagem top-down para modelagem de montagens, e afirma esta metodologia pode ser adaptada a qualquer sistema CAD 3D paramétrico comercial, com baixo consumo de recursos computacionais. Apresenta para validação um exemplo de aplicação passo a passo da metodologia para um equipamento. Mostra que a metodologia foi aplicada também para a construção de uma família de vasos de pressão verticais suportados por saia, com o intuito de avaliar o desempenho, com a obtenção de resultados significativos. Discute os problemas e dificuldades enfrentados na implantação do sistema paramétrico, juntamente com as alterações que este sistema trás na estrutura organizacional tradicional de empresas de bens de capital.

This work addresses a methodology for the parameterization of pressurized mechanical equipments. It focuses on creating systems to generate an assembly of petrochemical equipments, hence reducing the total time of project designs, layouts and bill of material until 80%, decreasing until 70% the time consumed for executing manufacturing instructions and also improving materials and components acquisition due to the standardization of project entries. The study reports that three-dimensional parametric CAD systems (Computer-Aided Design) have an increasingly prominent role in the development of equipments, however some traditional sectors in the Brazilian industry are still somewhat resistant to using this technology. This work shows that with the challenges posed by oil exploration in the pre-salt layer and PETROBRAS large investments in…

▼ L'objectif scientifique de la thèse est de progresser dans la modélisation hydrologique spatiale régionale dans le contexte de crues éclairs qui représentent l'une des catastrophes naturelles les plus destructrices dans la région Méditerranéenne. L'accent est mis sur les questions de mise à l'échelle des bassins versants et la dérivation des équations et des modèles applicables aux bassins de milieu simplifiées de grande taille pour mieux décrire l'hétérogénéité du paysage et de la complexité du processus. Telles sont les questions clés pour faciliter le modèle mis en place dans le contexte de l'ensemble du bassin versant et d'essayer son application dans les bassins non jaugés trop. Pour répondre à ces questions, une modélisation hydrologique spatiale simplifiée sur les sous-bassins versants est d'abord proposé où les paramètres sont essentiellement tirées de l'information disponible (surtout cartographique). La méthode de Kirchner (WRR, 2009) qui suppose que le débit à la sortie est la seule fonction de stockage du bassin versant, est spécifiquement étudiée dans le cadre des bassins versants Méditerranéens. L'étape suivante consiste à créer un nouveau modèle hydrologique SIMPLEFLOOD distribué sur la base de « top down » méthodologie de Kirchner dans la plateforme de modélisation JAMS. Les paramètres du modèle simple sont estimés à des endroits calibrés et une régionalisation se fait en fonction de la géologie. Le bassin versant est discrétisé en sous-bassins versants d'environ 10 km2. La dernière étape consiste à procéder à un couplage de données avec le modèle hydraulique MAGE 1D développé à IRSTEA HHLY tenir compte des effets de propagation de la rivière sur les hydrogrammes simulés. Le couplage est externe, ce qui signifie que les sorties du modèle hydrologique dans le système de modélisation de JAMS deviennent les entrées du modèle MAGE hydraulique. Les sorties sont les débits qui sont transférés dans le modèle de MAGE soit comme flux latéraux (provenant des terres adjacentes) et /ou entrées d'eau locales. L'application de la thèse est le bassin versant de l'Ardèche (2388 km ²), qui est l'un des sites pilotes français pour le programme international HyMeX (cycle hydrologique dans l'expérience de la Méditerranée, http://www.hymex.org/). La thèse proposée contribue également au projet FloodScale (multi-échelle d'observation hydrométéorologique et de modélisation pour la compréhension et simulation des crues éclairs (http://floodscale.irstea.fr/). L'application de la méthodologie Kirchner (2009) montre que les résultats de simulation des débits sont bonnes pour les bassins de granit, trouvés à être caractérisée principalement par des processus excès de ruissellement et d'écoulement sous la surface de saturation. L'hypothèse simple de système dynamique fonctionne particulièrement bien dans des conditions humides (pics et les récessions sont bien modélisés). D'autre part, la performance du modèle est moins bien représentée à l'été et les périodes de sécheresse où l'évapotranspiration est large et observations de… Advisors/Committee Members: Braud, Isabelle (thesis director), Branger, Flora (thesis director).

Den formella läs- och skrivundervisningen i Sverige inleds i årskurs 1. Hur läs- och skrivundervisning bedrivs kan skilja sig åt mellan olika klasser. Trageton (2005) har utvecklat en läs- och skrivinlärningsmetod där inlärningen sker via dator. Syftet med föreliggande studie var att undersöka och utvärdera hur ett antal läs-, skriv- och språkförmågor påverkas av Tragetons läs- och skrivinlärningsmetod via dator jämfört med traditionell läs- och skrivinlärning. I studien deltog totalt 26 elever i årskurs 1 på en skola i Östergötland. Datorklassen utgjordes av 13 elever i en klass med läs- och skrivinlärning via dator. Kontrollgruppen utgjordes av 13 elever i en klass med traditionellt läs- och skrivinlärningssätt. Grupperna testades med ett flertal läs-, skriv- och språktest på hösten och våren. Resultaten visade att datorklassen hade fler antal deltagare som kvalificerade sig för testning av läsning på samtliga nivåer. Resultaten på skrivtest visade att kontrollgruppen hade bättre läsbarhet av handstil medan datorklassen var bättre på skriftligt berättande på dator. Resultaten indikerar att båda inlärningssätten har effekt på läs- och skrivinlärningen hos elever i årskurs 1 och att vart och ett av inlärningssätten stärker olika förmågor inom läsning och skrivning.

Formal literacy education in Sweden begins in first grade. How reading and writing education is conducted may differ between classes. Trageton (2005) has developed a literacy learning method in which the computer plays a significant role. The aim of this study was to examine and evaluate how a number of literacy and language abilities are affected by computer based literacy learning developed by Trageton, compared to traditional literacy learning. In the present study, 26 students in first grade from a school in Östergötland participated. The computer based group consisted of 13 students who attended a class in which computer based literacy learning was used. The control group consisted of 13 students who attended a class in which traditional literacy learning was used. A number of literacy and language tests were administrated in both fall and spring time. The results showed that more participants in the computer based group, than in the control group, qualified for reading tests at all levels. The results in the writing test showed that the control group performed better in handwriting while the computer based group performed better in written narratives on the computer. The results of the present study indicate that both literacy learning methods have an effect on reading and writing skills in students in first grade. The results also indicate that each of the learning methods improve various reading and writing skills.

▼ Children with Down syndrome (DS) often demonstrate greater delays in speech and language development than their general developmental levels would predict. Research into the types of errors made by children with DS indicate their oral language systems resemble those of much younger, typically-developing children and children with language impairments. However, to date, very little research has been conducted investigating the most effective techniques to improve the oral language skills of school-age children with DS. To that end, the present study was a preliminary investigation of the effects of two instructional language techniques shown to be effective with typically developing children with phonological (speech sound) or grammatical impairments. The language instruction employed structural priming (Leonard et al., 2000, 2002) and was designed to teach children to ask fully formed questions or negated statements. Structural priming activities were embedded into children's storybooks. The phonological instruction consisted of a non-developmental linguistically-based approache focused on teaching English consonants that were excluded from children's phonological systems. Six children with Down syndrome between the ages of 5:0 and 7:11 (years: months) were recruited as participants. All children communicated verbally using primarily two- to three-word utterances prior to their participation in the study. Children were randomly assigned to one of two instructional conditions: (1) the morphosyntactic instructional condition; or (2) the phonological instructional condition. A multiple baseline design across behaviors was used to determine if the assigned instructional condition was related to changes in children's language skills and if instruction in one language domain was related to changes in the other domain. Four children received the morphosyntactic instructional condition. Two participants received instruction on Wh-questions while the other participants received instruction on negated statements. The remaining two participants were randomly assigned to the phonological instructional condition. Children participated in twice-weekly 30-minutes sessions over 8 weeks. Changes in language skills were monitored through the use of weekly morphosyntactic and phonological probes and tracking changes in daily instructional data. Results indicated both instructional conditions were effective in causing change in the targeted language skills. All four children who received the morphosyntactic instruction demonstrated gains in the targeted morphosyntactic skill as well as marked gains in phonological skill (i.e., cross-domain effects). For these participants, growth in oral language skill was apparent when comparing pre- and post-instructional performance on the Goldman-Fristoe Test of Articulation, Second Edition and the BE/DO probe from the Rice-Wexler Test of Early Grammatical Impairment. Children assigned to the phonological instructional condition demonstrated very large gains in productive phonological skill as a… Advisors/Committee Members: Bass, Lori A (advisor), Watterson, Thomas (committee member), Hardy, Donald (committee member).

▼ This study explores the applicability of the top-down target costing (TC) method in the Taiwan real estate development industry by considering one new element â creating buyerâs perceived product value. The top-down method determines the target costs by subtracting target profit from less controllable sales price. It has been extensively studied in the context of assembly manufacturing industries. On the other hand, the real estate developers produce more heterogeneous products in monopolistically competitive market conditions. In order to adapt to this different user group, TC as an accounting and strategic management tool is expected to have unique characteristics once adopted in the real estate development industry. This study adopts a descriptive research design. By presenting evidences gathered from six real estate development firms it sheds lights on how the creation of buyerâs perceived product value can be embedded into the target costing mechanism. By examining nine propositions, the study confirms the modified TC model is effective in stabilizing profits due to its focus on creating buyerâs perceived product value. The contributing factors include the ability to charge premium prices as well as effective cost reductions. The findings revealed three unique characteristics of real estate development industry which may influence the adoption of TC model. Firstly, due to stronger bargaining power of the buyers and land owners as well as low entry barriers, the users of TC framework strive towards providing added product value higher than the product price in order to sustainably charge premium prices. It supplements the traditional accounting and strategic management literature in which expected profit margins were primarily achieved by managing costs. The study also reveals that the TC framework is more compatible with the differentiator and confrontational marketing strategies in real estate development industry. Secondly, the modified TC framework may better facilitate firmsâ profitability objectives especially during economic recessions. Thirdly, TC is more applicable at preliminary stages of product planning e.g. land investigation, but is less effective for component- level cost management due to certain market and operational limitations. Given the different needs of the property developers, the adaptation of the top-down target costing model in Taiwan real estate development industry is characterized by emphasizing on the creation of the buyerâs perceived product value, as opposed to a pure cost focus in previous target costing literatures.

▼ One of the issues in infants’ language acquisition is - how do infants findword-like forms from fluent speech. Previous literature on infants word segmentationhas mostly focused on understanding the bottom-up cues, i.e., cuesin the input such as acoustic/prosodic cues, that infants utilize in pulling outnouns. This dissertation asks whether infants can use top-down cues in pullingout verbs. Verb segmentation has been reported to be delayed as compared tonoun segmentation and these results have been used to explain the delay in itsacquisition of verbs. This dissertation argues otherwise, demonstrating that infact at the beginning of word segmentation, i.e., at 6-months, infants can pullout verbs with the help of a known word mommy (a paradigm used in Bortfeld,Morgan, Golinkoff, & Rathbun, 2005).The current dissertation goes further and asks how these verbs are represented.To be specific, this dissertation looks at 6-month-olds’ segmentation ofmorphologically complex verbs, such as walking, walks, and walked, and askswhether preverbal infants can relate these forms to the root form walk. Themain focus of this research is to understand how prelexical infants, who cannotrely on semantics, relate complex forms to the root forms.This dissertation expands our understanding of the role of the functionalmorphemes (such as -ing, -ed, -s) in this process by conducting a corpus analysisas well as behavioral experiments. In this dissertation, I locate the beginningstage of this complex form acquisition and show that at 6-months, infants startsegmenting complex verbs, and based on the frequency and the characteristicsof the functional morphemes, infants begin to relate complex forms to rootforms. The findings of this dissertation highlight the importance of top-downcues in early language development and have crucial implications for verb acquisition.Also, these results provide evidence for morpheme-based processingmodels and acquisition models such as prosody-functor models, arguing forearly representation of functional elements and their facilitatory influence onword segmentation and representation.

▼ Herbivores facilitate the existence of coral reef ecosystems by limiting the abundance of fleshy algae. Though fishes often dominate in deeper fore-reefs, echinoids (sea urchins) often dominate herbivore communities in shallow fringing- and back-reefs. Given their strong effects on benthic dynamics in the Caribbean Sea and Indian Ocean, echinoids may drive many key biological processes on shallow coral reefs across the globe. Though described as generalists, echinoid species appear to exert unique effects on coral reef benthic communities. This dissertation examined how variation in the structure of echinoid communities drives benthic community dynamics on Hawaiian reefs. The four research projects (data chapters) used a combination of mensurative and manipulative approaches in the lab and field to address this topic and are organized into two themes: (1) spatial variation in consumer (echinoid) effects in relation to environmental conditions and (2) functional diversity among echinoid species and communities, and their consequent effects on benthic dynamics.In sum, this dissertation demonstrates that (1) herbivory by echinoids varies greatly among sites and can be a dominant structuring force on coral reefs in Maui, HI, (2) the in situ effects of echinoids on coral recruitment appears to be driven by a variety of factors (e.g., echinoid community structure and sediment exposure), (3) echinoid species vary greatly (> 10-fold) in their metabolic demands, grazing rates, and diet preferences, and (4) functional diversity among species leads to significant and large differences in the effects of unique echinoid communities on benthic dynamics and coral growth. These results emphasize the importance and complexity of echinoid community demographics and consequent effects in coral reef ecosystems. Though echinoids are able and willing to consume and survive on a variety of different food items, their unique preferences and grazing behaviors can result in diverse ecological functions and effects on coral reefs. These results suggest that models of coral reef ecosystem dynamics and conservation/management efforts (particularly for shallow reefs where echinoids often dominate) likely need to account for echinoid community structure and function in order to maximize their accuracy and long-term effectiveness.

▼ Mass spectrometry (MS) has been established as important analytical tool in the characterization of an array of analyte classes, including biological samples. However, without hyphenation with other techniques, the approach has limitations to the information that can be elucidated and the samples that can be analyzed. In an attempt to overcome these limitations, separation is performed prior to MS analysis to aid in alleviating sample complexity while dissociation is incorporated to increase the information content. Here, we employ ion mobility (IM), a gas-phase separation technique, to disperse product ions resulting from collision-induced dissociation (CID), denoted as MS-CID-IM-MS, for top-down analysis for a variety of applications, specifically, primary structure elucidation, disulfide bond identification, secondary structure characterization, and polymer characterization. First, the fundamental attributes of this approach and the resulting information elucidated are investigated. Using this approach CID product ions are dispersed in two-dimensions, specifically size-to-charge (IM) and mass-to-charge (MS), and the resulting 2-D data display greatly facilitates the top-down information contents; (i) charge state specific trand lines, (ii) increased dynamic range, (iii) separation of overlapping ion signals. The increase in peak capacity allows for detection of low abundant fragment ions providing an increase in the primary sequence coverage and the confidence of ion assignments as demonstrated by melittin and ubiquitin. Second, this general approach is applied to the top-down analysis for a variety of applications. MS-CID-IM-MS is used for the structural characterization of disulfide linked protein ions by monitoring the ATD of the ion pre- and post-collisional activation. Similarly, this approach can also be used to distinguish product ion type as well as, in some cases, specific secondary structural elements, viz. extended coils or helices providing rapid identification of the onset and termination of extended coil structure in peptides as demonstrated by insulin B-chain. Detect of low abundant ion signals associated with cross-ring cleavages allows this approach to be extended to determine regiochemistry of glucose derived polymers. As demonstrated, the MS-CID-IM-MS approach is highly versatile owing to the information content gained upon dispersion of ions in two-dimensions, providing an effective increase in experimental dynamic range as well as providing conformational information.

In comparison with other Muslim Arabic countries, Tunisia have attained a unique and successful progress when it comes to women’s rights and gender equality. According to researchers, the progress of women’s rights in Tunisia is due to a policy of top down State feminism that the country has adapted since the independence from the French colonialism 1956. Researchers have mainly focused on investigating the diverse factors that contributed to this progress and on tracing the causal mechanism behind the unique women’s legal rights in Tunisia. Nevertheless, there are few studies that carefully examined gender norms in Tunisian society and its relation to the adopted top down State feminism. The goal of this thesis is to analyse how gender norm are described in Tunisians legal texts and compare it to how young educated citizens in Tunisia relate to gender norms, as well to see if there are any eventual potential progress regarding gender equality in the future in Tunisia. This thesis is based on text analysis of law texts and qualitative group interviews. This thesis has no high explanatory ambitions, but it seeks to illustrate the various potential explanations for the differences and similarities between how gender norms are constructed in law texts and among young educated citizens in Tunisia. Also, this thesis seeks to obtain an idea about how these differences and similarities can be understood. This was done with the help of the data collected from the group interviews and also using theories about State feminism and the relation between the state and gender norms. The analysis of law texts shows that the Tunisian state draws a rigorous line between the public and the private sphere. The Tunisian state expresses a progressive view regarding gender norms on the public sphere but a conservative one when it comes to the private sphere. The interviewees’ views regarding gender norms in the public and the private sphere can be divided into two main categories depending on how they argument for their point of view: “Progressive” and “Conservative”. Thus, differences and similarities between how gender norms are expressed in law texts and by the participants in this study and how those can be understood, depends on which ideologies and mindsets the participants have concerning gender norms. Thus, the cultural and religious heritage as well as the social current circumstances can be assumed to be one of the most crucial factors that affects the progress of gender norms and equality in the public sphere likewise the private sphere in the case of Tunisia.

Jämfört med andra arabiska muslimska länder har Tunisien genomgått en märkbar och annorlunda utveckling vad gäller jämställdhet och kvinnors rättigheter. Enligt forskning på området berodde detta huvudsakligen på en top down State feminism policy som landet har anammat sedan självständigheten från den franska kolonialismen 1956. Forskare har mest fokuserat på att undersöka de olika faktorer som ledde till denna framgång och den kausala mekanismen bakom…

▼ The pros of having a commingled layer scheme would be considered high with successful reservoir management. If not, the cons will impact the production drastically as unfortunate consequences may result in reservoir fluids communication, well integrity issues, and production termination. Although the plane requires optimizing production with minimal capital investments and operating expenses, it is an enormous challenge considering commingled layers frequent surveillance and workover requirements. As the value of information is a decision tool for the surveillance frequency, the oil industry often uses static assumptions as an economical replacement of dynamic measurements such as KH static modeling. However, the last is misleading for not considering the effect of dynamic attributes such as reservoir pressure and fluid properties. Simultaneously, the evolution of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) made the challenge of allocating commingled layers allocation possible since AI does not build assumptions based on static properties but rather pick the static and dynamic patterns associated with rock and fluid properties. Accordingly, AI and ML application was used in this research as a new approach for commingled layers allocation estimation, which is known technically as Top-Down Modeling (TDM). TDM features the entire acquired static and dynamic field measurements through Artificial Intelligence and Data Science that utilizes Machine Learning, Fuzzy and crisp Logic via Neural Networks to develop a reservoir model. TDM was tested on a synthetic heterogeneous reservoir model with three commingled layers across 63 wells in conjunction with multi-random comingling schemes throughout wells' lifespan. As the static KH modeling proven ambiguous in picking the effect of reservoir pressure on production profile per layer, a high certainty TDM modeling was successfully achieved both horizontally and vertically on a layer basis which confirms the capability of TDM in allocating commingled layers production in terms of certainty, and operational cost.

▼ The passive perception of irrelevant actions can facilitate or interfere with the execution of one’s own actions, known as ‘automatic imitation’ (AI). For example, when one is pressing down on a button, reaction times (RTs) are faster when observing a finger depression (compatible action) and slower whilst observing a finger lift (incompatible action). This phenomenon has been attributed to the mirror neuron system and is thought to represent a laboratory model of spontaneous motor mimicry which facilitates social interactions. AI is typically reduced or absent when the observed movement is produced by a non-human agent. However, previous findings suggest that the magnitude of this ‘human bias’ can be modulated by top-down factors, such as attention and prior instructions regarding whether the movement was produced by a human or non-human agent. This thesis aimed to further examine the role of attention and belief regarding stimulus agency in automatic imitation. Participants were required to perform a pre-specified key press or release response to a diffuse yellow flash go signal. This response was either compatible or incompatible with the finger or object movement, which was presented simultaneously. AI was measured by subtracting compatible from incompatible RTs to calculate the compatibility effect. Experiments 1a, 1b, 2 and 7 focused on exploring the role of attention in AI. Experiment 1a revealed that the human bias is dependent on when the go signal occurs. AI was greater for the finger stimulus relative to the object stimulus when the go signal occurred during the movement, but not after the movement. It is suggested that attention to the movement is reduced when the go signal occurs after the movement. This implies that the human bias in AI is dependent on attention being directed towards the movement. Experiments 1b and 2 indicated that AI was removed if a visual dual task was added, but that AI remained and was greater when an auditory dual task was added. This indicates that AI was removed when the visual dual task competed for cognitive resources with action observation. The facilitation of AI when an auditory dual task was added suggests that the additional cognitive load may have occupied cognitive resources required for the inhibition of imitation. These findings highlight that AI is susceptible to attentional load, implying that AI is not a strongly automatic process. Experiment 7 explored whether the spread of attention modulates the magnitude of AI by comparing a ‘diffuse’ go signal to a ‘focused’ go signal which directed attention to the stimulus movement. Significantly larger AI effects were produced for the group of participants who saw the focused flash first, indicating that focusing attention on the spatial location of the movement increased AI, and furthermore that initially observing the focused flash ‘trained’ participants to pay attention to the stimulus movement in the diffuse flash condition. Experiments 3 and 4 examined why AI effects for non-human stimuli are more likely to be…

▼ According to the predictive coding approach to perception, the brain uses predictions based on previous experience to optimise perception, by allocating more computational resources to important or unexpected stimuli. Overall, predictions allow faster and more accurate recognition, but occasionally, when the prediction is incorrect, it may lead to a misperception. The aim of this thesis was to investigate the influence of top - down processes on perceptual decisions. I utilised misperceptions as a signature of those top - down influences and Signal Detection Theory to assess their size, type and direction. I used Electroencephalography to determine the stage of information processing at which different types of predictions influence sensory processing.The empirical studies are clustered around Topic 1: Influence of Predictions on Perception, Topic 2: Types of Predictions and Topic 3: Value as Modulator of Perception.Studies clustered in Topic 1 analysed and quantified the influence of predictions on perceptual decisions and showed that misperceptions can be triggered by wrong predictions only in very specific circumstances. In particular, misperceptions occurred only if there was some degree of correspondence between the wrong prediction and the sensory input. Otherwise, predictions were easily rejected, increasing the overall accuracy. I also demonstrated that misperceptions were most likely to happen in a window on the continuum of input quality where the stimulus - related uncertainty was highest. Topic 2 comprised experiments investigating different types of predictions and their interaction. Behavioural (but not EEG) results revealed interference between passive and active expectations. The early event related (ERP) components N1 and P2, as well as the P300, were all modulated by expectations. Expected events either increased or decreased the P300 amplitude, depending on whether the expected item was predictable and thus ignored, or awaited and thus flagged for further processing. This suggests that P300 might be an index of top - down resource allocation. Experiments within Topic 3 studied the influence of values, as examples of executive processes, on perceptual decisions, using either natural or acquired high - value stimuli. The results suggested that the process of recognition is adjusted in a top - down manner to account for the cost and benefit values related to different outcomes. The trade - off between processing time and accuracy is not fixed, but can be adjusted to optimise recognition in the task at hand. Furthermore, value can change the focus of perception, resulting in different elements of the sensory input being amplified or ignored. Overall, these results showed that misperceptions are 'intelligent mistakes' - a by - product of a top-down, prediction - based optimisation strategy that decreases the computational load, while increasing accuracy and improving the allocation of computational resources.

▼ Policy document conversion in practice – a qualitative study of five upper grade teachers approach to the 2011 policy documents in history.This essay examines five upper grade teachers approach to the new 2011 policy documents in the history school subject, as well as it’s impact on the teachers class room activities. Also, the study examines what factors have influenced this conversion process. Colleagues, the school management and the Swedish Skolverket (the Swedish school management organisation, controlled by the Swedish government) are in this study the main external influences that are studied. The study is carried out with an organisation theoretical approach, witch states that controlling the schools practical activities is hard, taking in to account a great variety of “problems” that follow a teachers every day work. Aspects like shortage of time, a lack of economic backing and school tradition are thought to be negating factors that make a political “top-down” control of the school necessary in order to force school political ideas to get hold in school classroom activities.Through five qualitative interviews with the teachers, mixed views takes shape. Most of the teachers are slightly torn, but mainly positive, to the changes that has followed with the new policy documents in the history subject. The grading system is mainly considered to be an improvement since the one before, considering it’s way of describing students subject qualities on a relative scale. Also, the subjects more analysing soul is mainly thought to make it more relevant in general. The main result shows that all teachers, in various degree, have reformed their class room activities, leaning school history to a slightly more advanced and academic oriented subject, with a greater proportion of analytic segments to carry the subjects narration through the courses. Throughout this study, source validation is by far shown to be the most prominent class room activity that causes this effect. Studies in how history has been used by individuals, groups and governments are also revealed to be an important factor, leading the subject in a more advanced direction.The study of external factors that had influenced the conversion process clearly stated that the teachers colleagues was the main source of reliance and support when interpreting the new policy documents. All five teachers claimed to have been discussing and comparing their work with their colleagues throughout the passed year. The schools managements had not –3with the exception of one, that were – been directly involved in the interpretation process. Nor had they been generous in their disposal of time given to discussion with colleagues. Though, the school managements had been underlining the importance of a interpretation collaboration and had made sure that the teachers had been given time to attend introduction seminars. The influence and support from Skolverket was amongst the teachers mainly considered to have been insufficient. Some introduction seminars to the 2011 school…

▼ This essay investigates how the new school curriculum, Lvux12, have been implemented in Linköping, with focus on the education Swedish for Immigrants (SFI). A lot of criticisms have been aimed at the SFI educations around the country and this is partly what the reform is based on, to be able to improve the education to the better. Despite this reform, criticisms are still being heard, so is the implementation of the reform really a success and has it been any changes? In this essay there are mainly two analytical perspectives being used; bottom-up and top-down. Based on these, the empirical materials collected through interviews are analyzed in comparison with already existing publications about the implementation process. The focus of the essay is concentrated to the information process, the adaptation level at micro level relative the directive from macro level, and also implementation barriers. It proves that there are some problems during the information process which did not execute the way described in the publications prior to the implementation. It has also emerged implementation barriers related to this since the information didn’t reach through, probably due to poor structure or due to pure reluctance. One big problem is the lack of follow-up and evaluation, both at local and national level. Even if it has been possible to enforce many adaptations and it has been possible to work with the reform from the micro level, it is still missing resources and some organizational support from further progress. The question whether the implementation has been a success or not is complex and a hard one to answer. There are many aspects to consider and different results points in different directions. Over all, the conclusion has to be that the implementation is a success, although with several possibilities for improvement. The question still has many question marks left and it is both relevant and important to continue to investigate the subject to reach appropriate measures. A lot is working well, but it can always get better and one has never learnt enough.
