Millimeter-Wave (mmWave) massive multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) has been considered as a key enabler for the fifth-generation (5G) communications. It is essential to design and test mmWave 5G devices under various realisticscenarios since the radio propagation channels pose intrinsic limitations on the performance. This requires emulating realistic dynamic mmWave channels in a reproducible

The aim of this thesis is to investigate if a deeper relation between form and movement can be achieved and strengthened with the help of digital tools. The work consists of three phases, starting with a foundation of interdisciplinary research regarding different theories about form and movement. These are then used as a broad toolset for experimenting with a physical proposal. In the second phas

Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka psykologers attityd och kunskap avseende transpersoner och icke-binära, samt hur det påverkar bemötande. Med utgångspunkt i binäritet och icke-binäritet studerades detta utifrån ett socialpsykologiskt perspektiv med integrering av genusvetenskaplig teori. Studien var en mixed methods design då den hade både en kvantitativ samt kvalitativ datainsamlings- ocThe aim of this study was to examine the attitude and knowledge of psychologists in regard to transgender and non-binary people, and how it affects their treatment. Based on gender binary and non-binary this was investigated by integrating the main perspective of social psychology with gender studies. This study was a mixed methods design, producing and analyzing both quantitative and qualitative

The aim of this thesis is to explore the relationship between natural light and the built environment, by designing a mountain cabin without the use of any artificial lighting. How is it possible to make a house livable and functional without the use of any light sources besides the sun? The thesis digs into the fundamentals of natural light. Why to use it and how to use it in architecture, with

De senaste tio åren har antalet sökta bygglov för småhus med träregelstomme mer än fördubblats. I dagsläget finns inget allmänt krav att säkerställa horisontalkapacitet för småhus men är något som beställaren kan efterfråga och som många konstruktörer någon gång upplevt problematiskt. Projekteringsfasen kan bli tidskrävande där lösningar för att fastställa kapacitet mot vindlast blir dyra och kompIn the last ten years, the number of building permits applied for houses with timber frame structure has more than doubled. Today, there is no general requirement to establish horizontal capacity, but is something that can be demanded and that many structural engineers have occasionally experienced as problematic. The design phase can then be time-consuming, where solutions for determining capacit

This project has explored how virtual reality can be used as a tool for communicating architecture and what advantages and limitations virtual reality provides over other mediums of representation. In the project I’ve compared the difference between portraying 3-dimensional space through a 3-dimensional medium, such as virtual reality, and a 2-dimensional medium, such as a computer screen or a pri

There are many opportunities for designers and manu- facturers to change consumer behaviour – an important and necessary step towards a less wasteful way of living. I see a need for an example product which could empathise keeping instead of changing. An extensive deep-dive into the psychology surrounding the subject keeping was conducted. This, in combination with own reflections on how fut

This thesis employs a mixed-method sequential explanatory design to investigate perceived loneliness. In the first phase, using survey data from SOM-undersökningen (2023), the quantitative analysis uncovers an association between tertiary education and perceived loneliness in Sweden; diverging from established literature that links education to improved subjective health outcomes. In the second, q

Plats Hus Människa: En berättelse är ett examensarbete i arkitektur som redovisar ett byggprojekt på djupet, från den första inspirationen till ett förverkligande i full skala. När man försöker gestalta en sådan komplex process gäller det att begränsa sig genom att ha tydliga ramar. För min egen del så innebär det att jag konsekvent har utgått från en viss skola inom arkitekturen och att jag både Plats Hus Människa: En berättelse (Place House Person: A story) is a master thesis in architecture that describes a project from start to near completion in full scale. Since my personal relation to the site is strong, my point of departure is the phenomenological architecture. This architectural movement emphasizes the importance of place.
