Intentionality,

Mindreading

Standard 
accounts 
of 
social 
reality 
take
collective
 intentionality 
as 
the starting 
point
 of
 the
 creation
 and
 maintenance
 of
 social
 facts.
 But 
collective intentionality 
is 
enabled, 
as
Searle
 suggests,
by
 a 
more 
basic
 capacity 
to 
understand 
another 
person
 as 
an 
agent
like 
oneself
 and
 as 
ready 
to 
engage 
in 
cooperative 
activities.
 We 
can 
coordinate 
our 
collective 
actions
 only
 insofar
 we
 are
 able
 to
 explain
 and
 predict
 the
 behavior
 of
 other
 persons,
 we
 can
 understand 
behavior 
only 
insofar
 we 
can
mindread
 them,
and 
we 
can 
mindread 
them
only
 if
 we
 assume
 the
 constitutive
 role
 of

 in

Effects of Transcranial Direct Current Stimulation on Baseline and Slope of Prefrontal Cortex Hemodynamics During a Spatial Working Memory Task

2020

Background: Transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) has been shown to be an inexpensive, safe, and effective way of augmenting a variety of cognitive abilities. Relatively recent advances in neuroimaging technology have provided the ability to measure brain activity concurrently during active brain stimulation rather than after stimulation. The effects on brain activity elicited by tDCS during active tDCS reported by initial studies have been somewhat conflicted and seemingly dependent on whether a behavioral improvement was observed. Objective: The current study set out to address questions regarding behavioral change, within and between-participant designs as well as differentiatin…

Expérimentation par voie informatique de la mobilité résidentielle

2008

La mobilité résidentielle est un sujet complexe qui nécessite d'appréhender les interactions entre le " couple " ménage-logement. Les expérimentations in vivo et in vitro n'étant pas possible sur ce domaine d'étude, nous proposons de réaliser un modèle de simulation de la mobilité résidentielle à des fins d'expérimentation in silico. Pour ce faire, VisualSimores, un logiciel multi-formalisme associant automate cellulaire, système multi-agents et formalisme mathématique a été conçu.

An EEMD Aided Comparison of Time Histories and Its Application in Vehicle Safety

2017

In the context of signal processing, the comparison of time histories is required for different purposes, especially for the model validation of vehicle safety. Most of the existing metrics focus on the mathematical value only. Therefore, they suffer the measuring errors, disturbance, and uncertainties and can hardly achieve a stable result with a clear physical interpretation. This paper proposes a novel scheme of time histories comparison to be used in vehicle safety analysis. More specifically, each signal for comparison is decomposed into a trend signal and several intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) by ensemble empirical mode decomposition. The trend signals reflect the general variation a…

Theoretical and experimental study of novel types of solid oxide fuel cell electrodes

2016

Master's thesis Renewable Energy ENE500 - University of Agder 2016 Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) have the potential to become one of the efficient and costeffective system for direct conversion of a wide variety of fuels to electricity. The performance, stability and durability of SOFCs depend strongly on the materials used for the fabrication of electrodes as well as the fabrication process. For anode supported SOFCs, the tape casting method has been the de facto standard for constructing cell components. Furthermore, organic solvents such as ethanol, propanol, terpineol and poly-ethers are generally used in industrial tape casting as the solvent medium to make the chemical slurries out o…

On the Finite Element Modeling of the Lumbar Spine: A Schematic Review

2023

Finite element modelling of the lumbar spine is a challenging problem. Lower back pain is among the most common pathologies in the global populations, owing to which the patient may need to undergo surgery. The latter may differ in nature and complexity because of spinal disease and patient contraindications (i.e., aging). Today, the understanding of spinal column biomechanics may lead to better comprehension of the disease progression as well as to the development of innovative therapeutic strategies. Better insight into the spine’s biomechanics would certainly guarantee an evolution of current device-based treatments. In this setting, the computational approach appears to be a remarkable …
