‘The will to not be empowered (according to your rules)’: Resistance in Finnish participatory social policy
2018
Participation has increasingly become a means and an end for successful and ‘empowering’ social policy. Building on previous governmentality critiques of participatory initiatives, this article investigates practices of resistance in the context of Finnish participatory social policy. I adopt a Foucauldian counter-conducts approach as my lens to study critical speech as a form of resistance in initiatives that invite marginalised people as ‘experts-by-experience’ in social welfare organisations. I illustrate how practices of governing and resistance are intertwined and mutually dependent in a much subtler and more practical manner than allows the often-used analytical dichotomy between domi…
Measuring the Task Induced Oscillatory Brain Activity Using Tensor Decomposition
2019
The characterization of dynamic electrophysiological brain activity, which form and dissolve in order to support ongoing cognitive function, is one of the most important goals in neuroscience. Here, we introduce a method with tensor decomposition for measuring the task-induced oscillations in the human brain using electroencephalography (EEG). The time frequency representation of source-reconstructed singletrail EEG data constructed a third-order tensor with three factors of time ∗ trails, frequency and source points. We then used a non-negative Canonical Polyadic decomposition (NCPD) to identify the temporal, spectral and spatial changes in electrophysiological brain activity. We validate …
Growth and Physiological Performance of a Coastal Species Trifolium fragiferum as Affected by a Coexistence with Trifolium repens, NaCl Treatment and…
2021
The aim of the present study was to analyze the growth and physiological performance of two coexisting species, Trifolium fragiferum, and Trifolium repens, under the effect of NaCl and rhizobial symbiosis. Seeds of T. fragiferum and T. repens were collected from populations in the wild, and plants were cultivated in an automated greenhouse, two plants per container. Three basic types of planting were performed: (1) both plants were T. fragiferum (single species), (2) one T. fragiferum and one T. repens (species coexistence), (3) both plants were T. repens (single species). For every basic type, three subtypes were made: (1) non-inoculated, (2) inoculated with rhizobia taken from T. fargifer…
A Theoretical and Experimental Investigation of the Spectroscopic Properties of a DNA-Intercalator Salphen-Type ZnIIComplex
2014
The photophysical and DNA-binding properties of the cationic zinc(II) complex of 5-triethylammonium methyl salicylidene ortho-phenylenediiminato (ZnL 2 + ) were investi- gated by a combination of experimental and theoretical methods. DFT calculations were performed on both the ground and the first excited states of ZnL 2 + and on its possi- ble mono- and dioxidation products, both in vacuo and in selected solvents mimicked by the polarizable continuum model. Comparison of the calculated absorption and fluores- cence transitions with the corresponding experimental data led to the conclusion that visible light induces a two-elec- tron photooxidation process located on the phenylenediimi- nato…
CMaS spektrianalysoinnin automatisointi
2011
Viimeisien vuosikymmenien aikana maailman sähkönkulutus on noussut tasaisesti. Tähän kehitykseen eri sähköntuottamisen teollisuuden alat ovat joutuneet vastaamaan lisäämällä tuotantokapasiteettiaan. Uusiutuvista energiamuodoista tuulienergia on lisännyt tuotantokapasiteettiaan ehkä eniten. Koko kehityksensä ajan tuulienergian tuotantokapasiteetin lisääntyminen on ollut eksponentiaalista ja tämän kehityksen ennustetaan myös jatkuvan. Samaan aikaan kilpailu tuuliturbiinien osien valmistajien välillä kiristyy. Erittäin tärkeänä osana kilpailussa on tuotteen mukana myytävät palvelut. Tästä hyvä esimerkki on tuuliturbiinien vaihteiden valmistajan Moventaksen myymä kunnonvalvontajärjestelmä. Kyse…
Tuning protein adsorption on graphene surfaces via laser-induced oxidation
2021
An approach for controlled protein immobilization on laser-induced two-photon (2P) oxidation patterned graphene oxide (GO) surfaces is described. Selected proteins, horseradish peroxidase (HRP) and biotinylated bovine serum albumin (b-BSA) were successfully immobilized on oxidized graphene surfaces, via non-covalent interactions, by immersion of graphene-coated microchips in the protein solution. The effects of laser pulse energy, irradiation time, protein concentration and duration of incubation on the topography of immobilized proteins and consequent defects upon the lattice of graphene were systemically studied by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and Raman spectroscopy. AFM and fluorescence…
Design Scheme of New Tetragonal Heusler Compounds for Spin-Transfer Torque Applications and its Experimental Realization
2012
Band Jahn-Teller type structural instabilities of cubic Mn(2)YZ Heusler compounds causing tetragonal distortions can be predicted by ab initio band-structure calculations. This allows for identification of new Heusler materials with tunable magnetic and structural properties that can satisfy the demands for spintronic applications, such as in spin-transfer torque-based devices.
Acceptable or not? : split infinitives in American English
2012
Tutkielmani tarkoitus on selvittää, kuinka usein englannin infinitiivirakenne jaetaan kahteen osaan laittamalla osien väliin adverbi (engl. split infinitive). Lisäksi tarkastelen, minkälaisia adverbeja esiintyy jaettujen infiniitivien kanssa ja onko adverbien laadussa tapahtunut muutoksia menneisyydestä nykypäivään. Tutkielman tavoitteena on siis vastata kysymyksiin: miten jaetun infinitiivin käyttö on vaihdellut vuosien 1810 ja 2009 välillä ja millaiset adverbit yleisimmin jakavat infinitiivejä. Datana tutkimuksessani käytän korpusta, koska korpukset tarjoavat suuren määrän dataa, joka on kerätty kielen luonnollisissa käyttötilanteissa. Tutkin kvantitatiivisesti jaettujen infinitiivien yle…
