A growing controversy at the interface of philosophy and cognitive science concerns the question of where cognition is located. In the paper “The Extended Mind” (1998), the book Supersizing the Mind (2008) and many other publications, Andy Clark contends that cognitive processes do not only occur in the head but also physically extend into the environment. In contrast and critical response to Clark, Adams/Aizawa (2008) and Rupert (forthcoming) hold that cognition is an entirely brain-bound affair. In the present thesis, I will argue that Clark’s extended cognition hypothesis as well as Adams/Aizawa’s and Rupert’s brain-bound accounts should be rejected because they lack plausibility and are cognitive-scientifically gratuitous. However, even though I dismiss Adams/Aizawa’s and Rupert’s specific brain-bound views, I will reach a conclusion similar to theirs: contra Clark, cognition remains an internal phenomenon.

The Eagle Bay Formation in the Adams Plateau-Clearwater area, 35km northeast of Kamloops, hosts several economic and sub-economic mineralized occurrences. The age and genesis of these mineral deposits can be estimated by using a specific growth curve which depicts the lead evolution for the Eagle Bay Formation. This curve, named the remodeled curve, represents a local deviation from the average 'shale' curve of Godwin and Sinclair (1982) for the autochthonous part of the Canadian Cordillera. This remodeled curve is specifically applicable to the Adams Plateau-Clearwater area. The lead isotope data from the deposits of the Eagle Bay Formation plot in three distinct clusters along the curve indicating that the lead isotopic signature of the Eagle Bay Formation is upper crustal, and that three periods of mineralization can be recognized or 'fingerprinted'. Accordingly, mineralization cogenetic with Devonian volcanism, and veins related to Cretaceous magmatism can be distinguished by location of galena-lead isotope values within clusters 1 or 3 respectively. Cluster 2 reflects a Late Triassic pulse of mineralization and includes epigenetic veins and stratiform deposits. These deposits are either replacement or cogenetic with their host. The Triassic model age for mineralization that is apparently stratiform and cogenetic raises questions about the currently assigned Cambrian age of associated host rock. To accommodate the lead isotope data a new Upper Triassic unit (T-EBG) within the Eagle Bay Formation is defined. The distinctive lead isotopic signature between deposits hosted by the Eagle Bay Formation is valuable as a guide for future mineral exploration programs in the Adams Plateau-Clearwater area. Recognition of lead isotopic fields that fingerprint types of mineral deposits, provides a useful and practical framework for the classification and evaluation of new mineralized prospects in the area. / Science, Faculty of / Earth, Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences, Department of / Graduate

In theoretical part, this master´s thesis deals with vibrations in cutting machine and description of creation of self-excited vibrations theory. In practical part, there is problem of chatter in cutting machine solved with using simulation program Adams and computing program MATLAB. Gradually, Multi body system of cutting machine and model of cutting tool with features flexible body are analyzed. At the end all both models were used to create complex model of the cutting machine .
