In response to Loures Municipal Council’s recent proposal for redeveloping the Vila Valente Quarter of Moscavide, an area in urgent need of intervention, by demolishing, starting from scratch and relocating its vulnerable residents, this thesis challenges our responsibilities as architects when it comes to community development, especially with respect to the marginalised in society. We understand
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 explores how to design vehicle restraint systems specifically for Nordic climates. Cargo trucks prematurely departing from loading bays can cause serious damage to goods and personnel. To combat this problem vehicle restraint systems are commonly used to physically keep the trucks in place. However, many of these systems require permanent installations in front of the loading dock, mak
Would slightly better performance be significantly more valuable from a market perspective? Would significantly better performance be just slightly more expensive to implement? When dealing with performance, usability, reliability, and so on, you often end up in difficult trade-off analysis. You must take into account aspects such as release targets, end-user experience, and business opportunities
Domstolens bevisvärdering, att värdera fakta i ett mål, är ett av de mest väsentliga momenten inom rättsskipningen. Bevisvärderingen regleras huvudsakligen genom den fria bevisprövningens princip i 35 kap. 1 § BrB. Bestämmelsen är utformad som en generalklausul och lämnar ett relativt stort spelrum för hur domstolen ska genomföra sin bevisvärdering. Våldtäkt regleras i 6 kap. 1 § BrB och är ett
Detta examensarbete undersöker hur naturreservatsföreskrifter påverkar fastighetsindelningen i Sverige. Syftet är dels att analysera rättsliga och praktiska aspekter av föreskrifter som begränsar fastighetsbildning, i synnerhet avstyckningsförbud, dels att bidra till ökad förståelse för hur miljörättsliga regler om områdesskydd påverkar fastighetsrätten. Arbetet belyser därmed gränsytan mellan milThis master’s thesis examines how nature reserve regulations in Sweden affect property division, with a focus on legal and practical aspects of restrictions on cadastral procedures, particularly restrictions on property formation (subdivision prohibitions). The purpose is to enhance the understanding of the relationship between environmental protection and real property law, and how these legal do
Japan drabbas ofta av svåra naturkatastrofer, där jordbävningar och tsunamier orsakar omfattande förödelse. Efter sådana händelser kan arkitektoniska strategier bidra både till att återuppbygga fysisk infrastruktur och stödja människors psykosociala återhämtning. Arkitektonisk resiliens definieras som byggnaders förmåga att hjälpa samhället att återgå till balans efter kraftiga störningar. DessutoJapan is frequently struck by severe natural disasters, whereas earthquakes and tsunamis inflict widespread devastation. In their aftermath, architectural strategies can help rebuild physical infrastructure while supporting survivors psychosocial recovery. Architectural resilience is defined as a building´s capacity to help society regain equilibrium after major disruptions. Moreover, the physical
Capacities for source localization in response to incidents involving radioactive materials are essential for effective, efficient response. In this context, the directional response of a detection system is of importance. Many solutions currently employed for source localization involve approaches that may be onerous with respect to cost, complexity and practicality for field operations. To avoid
Two low-power mm-wave voltage controlled oscillators (VCOs) designed in a 28-nm fully-depleted silicon-on-insulator (FD-SOI) CMOS process are demonstrated, using a push-pull differential architecture. Measurement show that the first VCO has a 10.8% tuning rage centered at 30.3 GHz, and the second has a 8.9 % tuning range at 58.7 GHz. The 30 GHz VCO consumes 1.06 mW from a 1 V supply, and has a −11
A method for the fractionation of aerosol particles with respect to size and ability to grow with an increased relative humidity has been developed. The system consists of cascade impactors, diffusion driers, a humidifier and a temperature stabiliser. Diffusion driers were designed and the vapour penetration was modelled below 20%. A humidifier which can be operated with an output relative humidit
We present the data reduction procedures being used by the GALactic Archeology with Hermes (GALAH) survey, carried out with the HERMES fibre-fed, multi-object spectrograph on the 3.9-m Anglo-Australian Telescope. GALAH is a unique survey, targeting 1 million stars brighter than magnitude V = 14 at a resolution of 28 000 with a goal to measure the abundances of 29 elements. Such a large number of h
PurposeTo provide an employee perspective on ambassadorship in the context of corporate communication, the purpose of this paper is to explore how employees relate to and experience ambassadorship.Design/methodology/approachThe study has a qualitative approach, and the empirical material consists of semi-structured interviews with, and focus groups of, employees of seven organizations in both the
This paper proposes an interaction and safety-aware motion-planning method for an autonomous vehicle in uncertain multi-vehicle traffic environments. The method integrates the ability of the interaction-aware interacting multiple model Kalman filter (IAIMM-KF) to predict interactive multi-modal maneuvers of surrounding vehicles, and the advantage of model predictive control (MPC) in planning an op
This paper presents an adaptive QR decomposition (QRD) processor for five-band carrier aggregated LTE-Adownlinks. The design uses time and frequency correlationproperties of wireless channels to reduce QRD computationswhile maintaining an uncoded bit error rate loss below 1 dB.An analysis on the performance of a linear interpolating QRD ispresented and optimum distances for different channel condi
A rationale for an individuals-oriented landscape approach to sustainable land-use planning based on an analysis of bio-geo-physical components as well as the human components of the landscape is presented. A toolbox for analysing individuals’ decision-making and valuations in the landscape is described. The toolbox can provide evidence on the drivers of individuals’ decision-making in the landsca
The focal and progressive degeneration of dopaminergic (DA) neurons in ventral midbrain has made Parkinson's disease (PD) a particularly interesting target of cell-based therapies. However, ethical issues and limited tissue availability have so far hindered the widespread use of human fetal tissue in cell-replacement therapy. DA neurons derived from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) offer unpre
Background: Registries of pancreatic surgery have become increasingly popular as they facilitate both quality improvement and clinical research. We aimed to compare registries for design, variables collected, patient characteristics, treatment strategies, clinical outcomes, and pathology. Methods: Registered variables and outcomes of pancreatoduodenectomy (2014–2017) in 4 nationwide or multicenter
Metal halide perovskites have shown a great performance in a broad range of optoelectronic devices. The variety of preparation methods makes perovskites especially attractive, yet preparation of complex nanostructures based on these materials remains challenging. Here we present a template assisted method allowing to achieve any pre-designed arrangement of methylammonium lead triiodide (MAPbI3) po
Comment on the course evaluation of GEOM10, fall 2022 13 of 14 students answered the course evaluation, which is thus representative. The course was held under this form for the sixth time. Overall the course got an excellent mark of 4.8 on a scale 1-5 (5 = top) (2017: 4.4; 2018: 4.3; 2019: 4.7; 2020: 4.2; 2021: 4.6). We observed an augmentation of satisfaction during the last years as we ongoing
