Walker, Paul Joseph. "Semiotics and the discourse of architecture." Thesis, University of Auckland, 1987. http://wwwlib.umi.com/dissertations/fullcit/8812775.

Abstract:
This thesis addresses a problematic of meaning and of semiotics in architecture by considering a number of questions. Why have meaning and semiotics been of concern in architectural discourse? How did semiotics enter that discourse? How does it operate there? The first chapter explores the notion of meaning in art, assuming this to have bearing on meaning in architecture. Functionalism is investigated as an implicitly semantic view of architecture: it is proposed that it is the failure of functionalism in practice which underlies the recent concern with meaning. Chapter 2 introduces the work of eight semioticians: Saussure, Peirce, Morris, Mukarovsky, Jakobson, Levi-Strauss, Barthes, and Eco. Chapter 3 poses the question of why semiotics has been attractive to architects. Attention is given to Tafuri's notion that semiotics serves both to bolster the current status of architecture (by blockading investigation of its discursive characteristics) and as radial criticism. Work by Norberg-Schulz and by Jencks is shown to be blockade; that by Agrest and Gandelsonas more nearly critical. It is proposed that semiotics and the discourse of modern architecture are epistemologically analogous, which circumstance has facilitated and been conditional to the entry of semiotics into architecture. The fourth chapter examines Eco's and Preziosi's rigorous semiotic theories of the built. Both have been posited, however, as theories of architecture; as such they impede rather than foster theorizing with respect to architectural discourse. Chapter 5 assumes a (semiotic) model of architecture as a hierarchy of codes (building, language, drawing, photography). The role of language in architecture is shown to be more important than is generally conceded. Architectural discourse is also shown to be dependent on photography, and, by implication, on other graphic modes. While bearing in mind the links between the postmodern and radical strains of semiotics, the final chapter surveys architecture in culture's present postmodern moment. If the problematic of meaning in architecture has been motivated by the 'emptiness' of the built world constructed under the aegis of functional architecture, this problematic cannot be taken as a recuperation. Rather, the advent of semiotics in the discourse of architecture may signify its transposition to an unknown discursive configuration.

Abstract:
Un bâtiment ne parle pas, mais il communique d'une autre manière des messages qui sont le reflet des idées des architectes. Si l'architecture est un langage, si elle est une " écriture d'idées ", alors comment rendre l'idée visible ? Comment peut-on, dans un sens métaphorique, faire parler un bâtiment ? Nous proposons alors une hypothèse analogique : " Si le bâtiment parlait alors il parlerait chinois ". Cette hypothèse oriente nos recherches vers l'étude des rapports entre langage architectural et langage naturel. À l'intérieur de ce champ interdisciplinaire, l'écriture graphique et idéographique chinoise devient notre objet référentiel. Les caractères chinois unifient la forme et le sens en même temps, ils proposent une figuration des idées fondée sur le système idéographique. De par sa logique combinatoire et ses procédés rhétoriques, le processus de figuration des caractères chinois est un processus de transformation de formes simples vers des formes complexes, passant de significations limitées à des significations riches. Ce processus de conception de caractères montre également une série de schèmes idéographiques qui pourrait constituer un système méthodologique de sémantisation pour la représentation architecturale. Ainsi, l'écriture idéographique et l'écriture architecturale, pris comme deux processus de figuration peuvent parallèlement se comparer, et l'écriture idéographique pourrait proposer un outil conceptuel pour l'écriture architecturale. Il s'agit d'examiner un nouveau modèle linguistique qui pourrait être utile pour la conception de l'architecture contemporaine.

Abstract:
Esta dissertação tem por objetivo explorar a espacialidade simbólica em arquitetura. Para tanto, principia expondo de maneira sucinta conceitos fundamentais de semiótica arquitetônica, situando o debate do simbolismo em arquitetura dentro de uma abordagem comunicacional do fenômeno arquitetônico. Em seguida expõe algumas considerações acerca da questão mais ampla do sentido em arquitetura, da qual entende-se que a questão do simbolismo em arquitetura faça parte. Apesar de partir inicialmente de uma visão vulgar do conceito de símbolo, baseada livremente na conceituação dada por Charles Peirce, esta dissertação explora também diferentes abordagens oriundas da semiótica, da lingüística, da psicanálise, da filosofia e da própria arquitetura, de forma a encontrar novos elementos que a auxilie a alcançar uma posição particular em relação ao símbolo, adequada ao seu uso em teoria da arquitetura. Partindo desta exploração do conceito de símbolo, a dissertação prossegue analisando a construção do símbolo em arquitetura ? seus mecanismos e aplicação. Trata então do simbolismo estrutural, implícito e identificado com o edifício em si, e do simbolismo aplicado, explícito e aposto à edificação. Para tanto parte da distinção que Venturi, Brown e Izenour fazem do simbolismo do ?pato? e do ?galpão decorado?. Em sua segunda parte a dissertação oferece exemplos do simbolismo em arquitetura religiosa, não se limitando a uma tradição ou a um contexto específico. A intenção é ilustrar o debate teórico desenvolvido na primeira parte ao mesmo tempo em que se aprofunda a questão de um simbolismo arquitetônico específico ? aquele da arquitetura religiosa. Além de uma introdução geral ao simbolismo do edifício religioso são analisadas as diferentes escalas de manifestação do símbolo no edifício: em sua localização, implantação, forma e conteúdo. A dissertação conclui com uma reflexão acerca de algumas das questões suscitadas e uma especulação acerca de caminhos possíveis para futuras pesquisas.
The aim of this dissertation is to explore the symbolic quality of space in architecture. Hence, it begins showing in a concise way basic concepts of architectural semiotics, placing the debate of the symbolism in architecture inside a communicational approach of the architectural phenomenon. After that it displays some considerations about the broadest question of the meaning in architecture, of which one understands that the question of architectural symbolism is a portion. Despite starting out from a vulgar concept of symbol, based freely in its given conceptualization by Charles Peirce, this dissertation explores also different approaches deriving from the semiotics, the linguistics, the psychoanalysis, the philosophy and the architecture itself, in such a way to find new elements that assist it to reach a particular position in relation to the symbol, proper for its use in architectural theory. Leaving from this exploitation of the symbol concept this dissertation goes on analyzing the construction of the symbol in architecture ? its mechanisms and application. It deals then with the structural symbolism, implicit and identified with the building in itself, and with the applied symbolism, explicit and attached to the building. For that, it parts from the distinction that Venturi, Brown and Izenour make of the symbolism of the \"duck\" and of the symbolism of the \"decorated shed\". In its second part this dissertation presents examples of the symbolism in religious architecture, not limiting itself to a tradition or a specific context. The intention is to illustrate the developed theoretical debate of its first section altogether deepening the debate of a specific architectural symbolism ? that of the religious architecture. Beyond a general introduction to the symbolism of the religious building, the different scales of manifestation of the symbol in the building are analyzed: in its localization, implantation, form and content. This dissertation concludes with a reflection concerning some of the stirred up questions and a speculation about possible paths for future researches.

Abstract:
Western museums are public institutions, open and accessible to all sectors of the population they serve. Increasingly, they are becoming more accountable to the governments that fund them, and criteria such as visitation figures are being used to assess their viability. In order to ensure their survival in the current climate of economic rationalism, museums need to maintain their audiences and attract an even broader demographic. To do this, they need to ensure that visitors feel comfortable, welcome and secure inside their spaces. They also need to give visitors clear entry points for engaging with and valuing the objects and knowledge on display in exhibitions. This thesis maps a grammar of three-dimensional space with a strong focus on the interpersonal metafunction. Building on the social semiotic tools developed by Halliday (1978, 1985a), Halliday and Hasan (1976), Martin (1992) and Matthiessen (1995), it identifies two interpersonal resources for organising space: Binding and Bonding. Binding is the main focus of the thesis. It theorises the way people�s emotions can be affected by the organisation of three-dimensional space. Essentially, it explores the affectual disposition that exists between a person and the space that person occupies by focussing on how a space can be organised to make an occupant feel secure or insecure. Binding is complemented by Bonding. Bonding is concerned with the way the occupants of a space are positioned interpersonally to create solidarity. In cultural institutions like museums and galleries, Bonding is concerned with making visitors feel welcome and as though they belong, not just to the building and the physical environment, but to a community of like-minded people. Such feelings of belonging are also crucial to the long-term survival of the museum. Finally, in order to present a metafunctionally diversified grammar of space, the thesis moves beyond interpersonal meanings. It concludes by exploring the ways textual and ideational meanings can be organised in three-dimensional space.

Abstract:
This investigation is a case study of landscape architectural design education in South Africa. Current forms of landscape architectural education are influenced by Global North perspectives and often, if not consciously, privilege particular ways of meaningmaking, and exclude or marginalise experiences or ways of knowing that are different. The aim of this research is to develop a landscape architectural pedagogy for diversity that fosters multiple perspectives and valorises resources that students bring to their learning environment, in order that students may both access and challenge the dominant landscape educational discourse. In grappling with these concerns, this research finds resonance with a multimodal social semiotic approach. Instead of labelling students as (in) competent or (under)prepared, a multimodal social semiotic approach emphasises the interest, agency and resourcefulness of the student as meaning-maker. The research thus reframes landscape architectural design processes through a multimodal social semiotic lens, providing new insights and clarity to these processes. The approach foregrounds interpersonal and social meanings of space and, to some extent, challenges traditional landscape architectural design practices that tend to value compositional and conceptual meanings. The methodology centers around a spatial model project in the second half of a first-year landscape architectural design studio subject. The data includes students' texts and their presentations. The research develops a methodological framework that outlines a range of ideational, interpersonal and textual meaningpotentials of landscape spatial and visual texts and applies this framework to the analysis of students' 2D and 3D texts. Through careful analysis of students' design trajectories, this research uncovers the types of resources students draw on, including semiotic, experiential, social, interactive and pedagogical resources. The analysis shows that students' transformation of resources results in innovative spatial designs, and expands on what and how landscape spaces can mean. Through the investigation, tenets for a multimodal pedagogy for diversity are developed: recognition of the rich and diverse resources students bring to their learning environment; acknowledgment that these resources are apt ‘precedent' for landscape architectural design processes; and explicit attention to multimodal moments and activities that may prompt re-(inner) conceptualisation in design trajectories. This pedagogical approach begins to address past educational imbalances and inequalities, and ensures that diverse, Global South perspectives contribute to the production of knowledge.

Abstract:
Esta dissertação visa entender as implicações do projeto arquitetônico no momento da execução de obras efêmeras, bem como busca elucidar os paradigmas essenciais a este projeto frente ao estágio avançado de depredação dos meios naturais em que o planeta se encontra. Entretanto, ainda que com a escassez de referências bibliográficas sobre o tema, na busca por esse pensamento analisaremos três pavilhões de verão da Galeria Serpentine executados por arquitetos de grande importância no cenário atual acreditamos que o conceito em arquitetura fica plasmado na obra. A leitura desses objetos, organizados não verbalmente, necessita de um referencial capaz de elucidar a sintaxe do pensamento que o orienta, revelando através de dados icônicos e indiciais o repertório de seu projetista. Neste momento mostra-se fecunda a teoria da semiótica de Charles Sanders Peirce, não apenas para revelar o repertório do arquiteto e os paradigmas de projeto que o orientam, mas também para pesquisar de que maneira estes profissionais materializam seus pensamentos através da linguagem não-verbal da arquitetura. Por outro lado, o que se vê à exaustão em eventos comerciais é a utilização de semelhantes sistemas construtivos industrializados, dos quais o OCTANORM é o mais conhecido, o que garante a continuidade do processo moderno e a elevação da capacidade de montagem e desmontagem como valor principal da obra. As hipóteses aqui levantadas tomam estes sistemas como uma manifestação da continuidade e apontam para outras arquiteturas, ainda efêmeras, mas alheias a essa dinâmica e com especificidades que caracterizam um campo particular de estudo. A base epistemológica deste trabalho veicula muito a semiótica peirciana e a bibliografia fundamental que dá orientação à pesquisa tem origem na filosofia da arquitetura e na psicologia da percepção com diversos teóricos.
This dissertation intends to understand the architectural project implications in the moment of the execution of ephemeral works, and tries to elucidate the essential paradigms to this project due to the advanced stage of depredation found within the planets natural resources. However, even facing a bibliographic shortage on the theme, searching this thought, we will analyze three summer pavilions inside Serpentine Gallery, executed by well-known architects we believe that the concept in architecture remains in this work. The reading of these objects, non-verbally organized, needs a reference capable of elucidating the thought syntax that guides it, revealing the designer repertory through iconic and inkling data. In this moment, Charles Sanders Peirces theory is shown to be abundant, not only to reveal the architectural repertory and the projects paradigms that guide it, but also to find the way that these professionals turn their thoughts into matter through non-verbal architectural language. On the other hand, what is exhaustively seen throughout commercial events is the use of similar industrialized constructive systems, from which OCTANORM is the most known, what guarantees the continuity of the modern process and the elevation of the mounting an dismounting capability as the main value of the work. The hypotheses raised in here consider these systems as a manifestation of continuity and point to other architectures, still ephemeral, but disconnected to this dynamic and owners of specificities that characterize a particular field of study. The basis of this work, regarding the use of epistemology, features peircians semiotics a lot and, the fundamental bibliography, that gives the research an orientation, has its origin in the architecture philosophy and in the psychology of perception defended by many theorists.

Full text
Abstract:
Cette recherche vise à montrer le passage de l’usage ordinaire des espaces publics à l’énonciation d’un récit de la ville où se réalise un engagement réel des acteurs sociaux dans le projet partagé d’une urbanité en devenir. Au-delà d’une pure préoccupation esthétique, le dialogisme urbain répond à la centralité de la ville comme lieu privilégié de l’élaboration des enjeux sociaux. En s’intéressant aux modalités d’appropriation de l’espace urbain durant des balades urbaines guidées, nous verrons en quoi elles constituent un rôle de catalyseur d’un déconditionnement pour les participants dans leur rapport à la ville. Le projet suit ainsi trois perspectives d’investigation. Il y a d’abord le passage de l’hétérogénéité pure des styles urbains – entre le bâtiment classé au patrimoine institutionnel et l’anomie du terrain vague – aux entrelacements dialogiques entre esthétiques en compétition. Nous pourrons ainsi cerner l’interaction des langages, la cohabitation de formes institutionnelles et d’expressions plus individualisées et temporaires, exprimées par une citoyenneté changeante. Ensuite, il s’agit d’observer la transformation des itinéraires fonctionnels aux déplacements selon des parcours électifs qui choisissent des passages par des éléments caractéristiques, permettant une prise affective à chaque fois renouvelée de la ville.Enfin, cette étude constitue une analyse ne se limitant pas à une taxonomie des pratiques. Elle cherche plutôt à rendre compte des gestions du sens dans l’interaction. Une forme d’interaction où l’appropriation de la ville et de ses objets n’est plus seulement intime, mais observable parce qu’explicite, socialisée et attestée par l’expérience
This research study aims to show the transition from the ordinary use of public spaces to the enunciation of a city narrative in which the social actors are committed in the shared project of an urbanity in the making. Beyond a pure aesthetic preoccupation, the urban dialogism responds to the centrality of the city as a privileged space for the elaboration of social issues. By focusing on the appropriation of urban space during guided urban walks, we will see how they constitute a catalyst for deconditioning participants in their relationship to the city. This research project thus follows three investigation perspectives.First, there is the transition from the pure heterogeneity of urban styles – from a building classified as institutional heritage to the anomie of a vacant lot - to the dialogical interplay between aesthetics in competition. We will be able to understand the interaction of languages, the cohabitation of institutional forms and more individualized and temporary statements, expressed by an ever-changing citizenship picture.Then, it is a question of observing the transformation of the functional itineraries to the displacements according to elective courses going through characteristic elements, allowing an ever-renewed affective grip on the city.Finally, this study constitutes an analysis that is not limited to a taxonomy of practices. Rather, it seeks to account for the management of meaning in interaction - a form of interaction where the appropriation of the city and its objects is not only intimate, but observable because explicit, socialized, and attested by experience

Abstract:
A tese propõe uma abordagem cibersemiótica para processos de projeto a partir da perspectiva da mediação digital e de suas relações com a arquitetura contemporânea. Apresenta uma revisão dos processos digitais de projeto, com base na constatação de que a atuação de arquitetos e designers, em função dos modos de vida contemporâneos, passa a exigir atualmente uma postura diferenciada em relação ao gerenciamento das informações, assim como uma reflexão crítica em relação ao método projetivo utilizado na arquitetura da era digital. A tese utiliza como fundamentação teórica, os principais referenciais que tratam da Cibersemiótica, conforme proposta pelo filósofo dinamarquês Søren Brier, e de suas duas bases conceituais: a Semiótica de Charles Sanders Peirce e a Cibernética de Segunda Ordem, proposta por Heinz von Foerster. A tese propõe uma estrutura (framework) para análise de projetos a partir do olhar cibersemiótico, assim como propõe também uma estrutura (framework) para os próprios processos digitais de projeto. O trabalho é dividido em duas partes. A primeira parte, aborda processos de concepção e de produção digitais e as teorias utilizadas como fundamentação. Também define o quadro contextual que compara alguns projetos selecionados no recorte proposto e propõe uma estrutura de análise cibersemiótica destas referências. A segunda parte, apresenta estratégias para projeto digitais e propõe uma estrutura cibersemiótica para processos digitais de projeto. Acredita-se que a relevância da contribuição da tese se dá na direção da expansão do paradigma teórico cibersemiótico assim como na sua capacidade de potencializar processos digitais de projeto. Se outras espacialidades e interconexões deverão surgir a partir da atualização dos níveis de comunicação estabelecidos entre os diferentes sistemas, e de novos desafios sociais e culturais, é imprescindível que os arquitetos estejam atentos à compreensão das teorias e dos processos que estão disponíveis, para a otimização de todo o seu potencial de projeto na busca por ampliar as possibilidades para a Arquitetura e Urbanismo.
The thesis explores the Cibersemiotic approach to design processes from the perspective of digital mediation and its relationship with contemporary architecture. It presents a review of existing digital design processes, based on the assumption that the practice of architects and designers, according to the contemporary modes of life, currently requires a different position in relation to the management of information, as well as a critical reflection on the design methods used in the architecture of the digital age. The thesis\' theoretical foundation is based on the Cibersimiotic work produced by the Danish philosopher Søren Brier, which unifies two important conceptual frameworks: the Semiotics by Charles Sanders Peirce and the Second Order Cybernetics proposed by Heinz von Foerster. The thesis proposes a structure (or framework) to analyze existing designs from the cibersemiotic point of view, as well as a structure (or framework) for the digital design processes themselves. The work is presented in two parts. The first examines the digital processes and production as well as the theories they are based on. This part also presents the theoretical context for the structure (or framework) used to analyse selected existing designs and introduces the framework. The second part presents strategies for digital design and proposes the cibersemiotic framework for digital design processes. It is believed the thesis contributes towards the expansion of the Cibersemiotic theoretical paradigm as well as provides a working framework for the increasingly complex processes of digital design. Assuming other spatialities and interconnections will arise from the update levels established from communication between different systems as well as new social and cultural challenges, it is essential that architects are aware of available theories and processes for optimizing design potential and expand the possibilities for Architecture and Urbanism.

Abstract:
L’analyse sémiotique de l’architecture domestique a pour but de voir comment se manifestent, à travers le langage architectural, les comportements codés qui remplacent la communication linguistique, en postulant qu'il y a un déterminisme de l'architecture par les valeurs macro-sociales, et que le signe architectural doit être considéré comme un marqueur anthropologique. L’approche pluridisciplinaire qui allie des champs aussi divers que l’architecture, la sémiologie et l’anthropologie, a pour ambition de contribuer d’une part, à la sémiotique de l’architecture en proposant une méthodologie pour l’analyse et le découpage d’un corpus architectural, et d’une autre, d’élargir le champ de la géographie urbaine à de nouvelles disciplines, et enfin, de proposer une lecture inédite du paysage urbain à Beyrouth à travers l’étude comparative de deux typologies architecturales. L’approche sémiotique proposée peut être appliquée en tant qu’outil de la géographie urbaine à des corpus architecturaux ou des pans du tissu urbain afin d’appréhender les mécanismes de production et d’obsolescence des formes, et par extension de la ville
The purpose of a semiotic analysis of architecture is to see how non verbal codes manifest themselves through the architectural language, based upon the idea that such a language is conditioned by macro-social values, and therefore the architectural sign should be considered as an anthropological marker. This multi-disciplinary approach combining different fields such as architecture, semiotics and anthropology, is aimed on one hand at contributing to semiotics by proposing a methodology for the analysis of an architectural corpus, and on the other hand, to broadening the field of urban geography to new disciplines, and finally, to providing a new analysis of Beirut’s urban fabric through the comparative case study of two architectural typologies. The proposed semiotic approach can be applied as a tool of urban geography to architectural corpuses and urban fabrics in order to understand the mechanisms of production and obsolescence of form

Abstract:
A pesquisa lançou um olhar sobre a produção arquitetônica de Peter Eisenman e sobre a cidade de Berlim, buscando centrar-se na análise de uma obra específi ca, o Memorial dos Judeus Assassinados da Europa. O texto construído é uma reunião de instantâneos de percurso, de fragmentos de uma narrativa imaginada e interpretada pelo verbal. Tentando construir uma análise que contemplasse de alguma maneira a dimensão da experiência da obra, foi promovido o cruzamento com comentários e análises escritas em outros momentos, com refl exões feitas a partir de achados de pesquisa, com recortes de textos e imagens e desenhos analíticos feitos ao longo do trabalho. Assim, o conjunto de três capítulos procura desenhar um percurso análogo ao desenvolvido ao longo da pesquisa, procurando permanecer atento ao suporte texto/imagem de uma dissertação e condensando o processo de três anos no relato fi ccional de uma jornada de um dia. No primeiro capítulo é feita uma espécie de panorâmica cronológica da obra de Eisenman que, no entanto, não conta a sua história, mas a do pesquisador seguindo a trilha deixada pelo arquiteto. No segundo capítulo a jornada ganha tempo e espaço com a sequencia que narra a chegada à cidade de Berlim e o percurso até o Memorial dos Judeus Assassinados da Europa, cuja análise é feita no terceiro capítulo.
This research takes an overview of the architectural output of Peter Eisenman and more generally, the city of Berlin. The research then focusses on an analysis of a single specifi c work, the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. The text itself is constructed from moments in a perambulation of the work and fragments of an imagined narrative. As an attempt to construct an analysis which contemplates the physical experience of the work, this method interlaces commentaries and analyses made at different times, refl ections on fi ndings of the research and snippets of text, images and drawings made during the course of the research. As a whole, the three chapters seek to illustrate the route taken during the research. Whilst remaining aware of the need to support the text/images of a dissertation, the text aims to condense the process of three years of research into the fi ctional story of a single day. The fi rst chapter gives a chronological overview of the works of Eisenman. This is not recounted as a history of the works, but as an account of the researcher following the trail left by the architect. The second chapter gains time and space with a sequence that narrates the arrival of the researcher in Berlin and the journey to the Memorial to the Murdered Jews of Europe. The analysis of the Memorial itself is contained in the third chapter.

Abstract:
La maison des XIIIe-XVIe siècles n’avait jamais fait l’objet d’une enquête approfondie en Lorraine. Jusqu'ici, seule l'architecture civile de la ville de Metz a manifestement attiré l'attention. Dans le reste du territoire régional, le bâti domestique hérité du Bas Moyen Âge n'a pas acquis la même notoriété. Il n'a apparemment pas laissé de traces suffisamment prégnantes dans le paysage architectural pour engendrer des recherches significatives. Cet état de conservation a priori constitue un verrou méthodologique qui nous invite à changer de paradigme. Différents concepts, hérités de la sociologie, de la sémiologie architecturale et des logiques de temporalité permettent d'appréhender le sujet sous un angle anthropo-historique. L'examen de la bibliographie régionale souligne que les travaux antérieurs, même ponctuels, suivaient déjà cette orientation. Aujourd'hui, la recherche profite d'une documentation qui s'est très largement enrichie. Elle s'appuie sur un recensement approfondi, des études architecturales et diverses interventions archéologiques. L’ensemble de ces traces matérielles constitue un répertoire inédit dont la spatialisation semble refléter, pour partie, les évolutions de l’écoumène lorrain des XIIIe-XVIe siècles. Pour mieux entrevoir sa résonance socioculturelle, l’architecture a été interrogée selon trois orientations : sa survivance patrimoniale, ses formes délaissées et les savoir‑faire locaux. Ce biais microhistorique participe à la définition d'un archétype de la maison des XIIIe-XVIe siècles tout en démontrant sa part d'héritage en Lorraine
Until now the buildings of the 13th-16th centuries in the Lorraine region have not yet been investigated systematically by modern building research. Only the profane architecture of the city of Metz has been studied occasionally. In the rest of the study region, the domestic building constructed during the late Middle Age is remaining still largely unknown, without any doubt resulting from a lack of its visibility. It is evident that the bad state of conservation is remarkably hampering modern methodological building research. This has forced us to modify our scientific approach by integrating sociological concepts, the architectural language and the evidence of important chrono-historical developments. The regional bibliography dealing with this subject is evidencing that the anthropo-historical approach has largely influenced former studies and analysis. Today, modern research is taking profit from a much more developed scientific documentation, which is based on a systematic inventory, architectural studies and results from archaeological excavations. The stock of the inventoried buildings is without any doubt reflecting the socio-political developments of the Lorraine region between the 13th and the 16th c. AD. In this work the building’s architecture was studied from three different viewpoints to understand their today’s socio-cultural value: the surviving and persisting elements deriving from older architectural practices, the abandonment of practices and techniques and, not to forget, the local architectural and technical Know-how. This approach has allowed identifying the archetype of the domestic building in the Lorraine region between the 13th and 16th centuries and its heritage within the known historical building stock

The intent of this research, based on the study of Icapuí s (Ceará) porched loam houses, and through the understanding of architecture as a language, is to comprehend the resources utilized by home builders and residents to communicate and create meaning, with the purpose of investigating the existing relationship between the construction of the home space and its representations (spatialitys) and the urban and communicative sociability originated from the interactive exchange of values, which start within the private area and expands into the public space. Through the understanding of architecture as a language, this research analyzes Icapuí s porched loam houses to comprehend the resources utilized by home builders and residents to create and communicate meaning. The research investigates the existing relationship between the construction of the home space and its representations (spatialitys) and the urban and communicative sociability originated from the interactive exchange of values that start within the private area and expand into the public space. The object of this paper is, therefore, Icapuí s porched loam houses and the relationship that this architecture establishes with the habitants and the city, especififically how the home becomes the means of communicating everyday habits, values and specifific and not transferable behaviors. It will be necessary, along this analysis, to document a specifific architectonic typology and indentify the values, implicit or explicit, that justify this typology s endurance or that stimulate its disappearance. Apart from identifying these values, it is necessary to investigate the mediation processes that prompted the value transmission and also indentify how the changes on the way of living influence the characterization of the communicability of the home values. It was found, so far, that home building and home inhabiting constitute a mediation to a communicative sociability, and that the typological changes in the architecture of the Icapuí s porched loam houses (multiples and mutant spatialitys) characterize sociability and meaning changes in the communication processes. The methodology consisted in the characterization of the object (through a fifield research, realized within 2006 and 2008) and the confrontation and analysis of the obtained data (based on C.S. Peirce Semiotic), from a plural and theoretical perspective that provides a dialogue between communication, space and culture. Concepts such as space, spatialitys and urban sociability (l. Ferrara), means and mediation (M.Mcluhan, J.M-Barbero), inhabit and live in (M.Heidegger, N.Leach), and communicate, transmit and methodology (R.Debray), are fundamental to the development of the research
A pesquisa pretende, a partir do estudo das casas de taipa alpendradas de Icapuí / Ceará, e através da compreensão da arquitetura como linguagem, estudar o repertório utilizado por aquele que constrói e aquele que habita para comunicar e constituir sentido, a fifim de investigar as relações existentes entre a construção do espaço do habitar e suas representações (espacialidades), e a sociabilidade urbana e comunicativa decorrente das trocas interativas de valores, que se dão no âmbito privado, e expandem-se para o espaço público. O objeto de estudo deste trabalho consiste, portanto, nas casas de taipa alpendradas de Icapuí e nas relações que esta arquitetura estabelece com os habitantes e a cidade, ou seja, no modo como o habitar se transforma em meio que produz um ambiente comunicativo e um cotidiano com hábitos, valores e comportamentos específificos e intransferíveis. Será necessário, ao longo deste percurso, documentar uma tipologia arquitetônica específifica e identifificar os valores, implícitos e explícitos, que justifificam sua permanência ou estimulam seu desaparecimento. Ao perceber tais valores, deve-se ainda investigar os processos de mediação através dos quais sua transmissão se deu e continua ocorrendo -, bem como identifificar como as alterações no modo de morar influenciam a caracterização da comunicabilidade dos valores do habitar. Verififica-se, até então, que os processos do habitar constituem uma mediação para uma sociabilidade comunicativa, e que as alterações tipológicas na arquitetura das casas de taipa alpendradas de Icapuí (múltiplas e mutantes espacialidades) caracterizam alterações na sociabilidade e nos modos de signifificação dos seus processos de comunicação. A estratégia metodológica consiste na caracterização do objeto (a partir de pesquisa de campo, realizada entre 2006 e 2008), comparação e análise dos dados obtidos (a partir da Semiótica de C.S. Peirce), partindo de um horizonte teórico múltiplo que permita o diálogo entre a comunicação, o espaço e a cultura. Conceitos como espaço, espacialidade e sociabilidade urbana (L. Ferrara), meio e mediação (M.McLuhan, J.M-Barbero), habitar e morar (M.Heidegger, N.Leach), e comunicar, transmitir e mediologia (R.Debray), são fundamentais para o desenvolvimento da pesquisa

Abstract:
Esta pesquisa trata dos elementos de linguagem do Design Audiovisual, pensados como um sistema de signos auditivos, visuais e verbais, simultaneamente transmitidos, enfatizando suas relações e composição transversal no tempo e espaço. Como disciplina nova do Design, o Design Audiovisual nasce do cinema, se desenvolve com a televisão, incorpora os elementos do Design Gráfico e se aperfeiçoa com a informática, tendo seu processo agilizado pela da tecnologia digital emergente pós anos 1990. A evolução da tecnologia de pré-produção, produção e pós-produção nos meios audiovisuais, mais especificamente no cinema, e a crescente possibilidade da criação de um design audiovisual digital complexo, levou-nos a discutir e constatar a necessidade de um modelo para demonstrar esta pluralidade de elementos, frágeis e imprevisíveis, como bolhas de uma espuma. Para tanto, foi proposto o Modelo da Espuma Audiovisual. A tese fundamenta-se, principalmente, na teoria de Lucia Santaella, em Matrizes da linguagem e pensamento, que forneceu ferramentas para a análise destas relações; e do filósofo alemão Peter Sloterdijk, que suportou a proposta do Modelo da Espuma pelo seu caráter metafórico, sistêmico e complexo. Como procedimento empírico, foram realizados estudos de caso de Design Audiovisual de Créditos de Abertura de filmes e, ao final do processo, desenvolveu-se o projeto experimental do Modelo da Espuma Audiovisual, que se transformou em uma Instalação 3D Imersiva, denominada \"Paixão e Violência\". Visa contribuir para a formação ou atualização de designers inseridos no início de século XXI, em meio ao cenário contemporâneo, por isso seu caráter abrangente. Os resultados esclarecem sobre as características dos elementos de linguagem do Design Audiovisual, não apenas como elementos \"emprestados\" de outras linguagens, mas portadores de identidade própria, híbrida, complexa, frágil e única.
This research deals with Audiovisual Design language elements, elaborated as an audio/visual/verbal system that simultaneously transmits all its elements, emphasizing their relationship and their transversal composition in time and space. Originally from Cinema, Audiovisual Design originate a new discipline in Design, develops along with Television, feeds from Graphic Design elements and improves with Informatics; it has its own process expedited by emergent digital technology post-1990. The evolution of pre-production, production and post-production in audiovisual mediums, more precisely in Cinema, plus an expanding perspective of creating more complex digital Audiovisual Design, leads us to a discussion yp identify the need of a model that would be able to demonstrate the plurality of these frail, unpredictable, \"bubbles in the foam\"-like elements. That was the beginning of the Audiovisual Foam Model thesis. The thesis fundaments come mainly from Lucia Santaella\'s theories of Language and Thinking Matrix, which are tools for understanding the mentioned relationships; and from the Dutch philosopher Peter Sloterdijk\'s work, that supported the Foam Model because of its metaphoric, systemic and complex character. As an empiric procedure, some study cases were made based on Audiovisual Design of Open Titles, and by the end of this process an experimental Project of the Audiovisual Foam Model was developed, leading to a 3D Immersive Installation named \"Passion and Violence\". This research aims to contribute to the academic formation and updating of designers in beginning of the XXI century, in the middle of its contemporary scenario, and to presents a comprehensive approach. The results brings about a clearer vision of the language elements of the Audiovisual Design, not only as \"borrowed\" elements from other disciplines but also as unique, hybrid, complexes elements on their own identity.

Abstract:
A partir do construto de mediação simbólica de Vigotski, entendida como intrínseca ao processo de desenvolvimento psíquico e cultural humano, esta pesquisa, de cunho qualitativo, investigou o espaço escolar enquanto mediador de significados e sentidos sobre a escola, tanto pelo que propõe sua configuração arquitetônica quanto pelas experiências e usos que possibilita ou que se faz desse espaço, com especial atenção para a sua ressignificação pelos usuários das escolas, principalmente os alunos. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida em duas dimensões: análise do referencial teórico e pesquisa empírica. A pesquisa teórica percorreu autores de diversas áreas do conhecimento (Educação, Arquitetura, Psicologia, Filosofia e Geografia) que trouxeram importantes contribuições para esta reflexão. A pesquisa empírica foi realizada numa escola pública estadual da cidade de São Paulo, construída no período da Primeira República e com 104 anos de existência e tombada pelo CONDEPHAAT (Conselho de Defesa do Patrimônio Histórico, Arqueológico, Artístico e Turístico da Secretaria da Cultura do Governo do Estado de São Paulo) pelo valor histórico, cultural e arquitetônico de seu prédio. Foram utilizados como procedimentos de coleta de dados a observação em campo e o registro iconográfico (fotografias e desenhos), entrevistas livres e registro de depoimentos espontâneos dos funcionários da escola e uma entrevista semiestruturada e em grupo com alunos do 8º ano do Ensino Fundamental todos com o objetivo de identificar e compreender a constituição, organização, uso, vivências cotidianas, apropriações e significados do espaço escolar. Desta forma, compôs-se uma reflexão que traz contribuições para o entendimento do espaço como construção humana e, como tal, lugar que carrega significações não aleatórias, mas passíveis de serem transformadas e recriadas por meio da diversidade de apropriações que pessoas reais fazem dele; lugar que impõe constrangimentos (conformando corporeidades e mentalidades) e impinge controle e disciplina ou que pode estar aberto à experimentação criativa; lugar impregnado pela(s) cultura(s), mas que também é habitado por percepções e vivências pessoais; e, no caso da escola, materialidade que propõe, ainda, sentidos sobre a escola e o conhecimento e sobre sua função em nossa sociedade.
From Vygotskys construct of symbolic mediation, understood as intrinsic to the human psychological and cultural development, this qualitative study has investigated the school environment as a mediator of meanings and senses of school, both by means of what the schools architectural configuration proposes and by the experience and uses that it allows, and has focused on the schools resignification by its users, especially students. The study included two dimensions: an analysis of the theoretical framework and empirical research. The theoretical research included authors from different areas of knowledge education, architecture, psychology, philosophy and geography , who brought important contributions to this discussion. The empirical research was conducted in a state public school in Sao Paulo city. Built 104 years ago, during the First Republic, such school was listed by Conselho de Defesa do Patrimônio Histórico, Arqueológico, Artístico e Turístico (CONDEPHAAT Council for the Defense of Historical, Archaeological, Artistic and Touristic Heritage) of São Paulo State Department of Culture, for the historical, cultural and architectural value of its building. As for data collection, I used field observation and iconographic records (photographs and drawings), free interviews and recording of spontaneous comments from school officials and a semi-structured group interview with 8th grade students, aiming to identify and understand the constitution, organization, use, and daily experience and meanings of the school space. Thus, I have written a reflection that brings contributions to the understanding of space as a human construction and, as such, as a place that carries meanings that are not random and can be transformed and recreated through the diversity of appropriations by real people; a place that imposes constraints (conforming mentalities and corporealities) and enforces control and discipline or that may be open to creative experimentation; a place impregnated with culture(s), but also inhabited by our personal perceptions and experiences; and, in the case of school, materiality which also proposes senses of school and knowledge and about its role in our society.

Abstract:
Intersecting spaces is a qualitative case study that examines a third-year group of undergraduate architectural students’ meaning-making in an Irish Higher Education(HE) Institute of Technology (IoT) through a social semiotic multimodality lens. Architectural students face many challenges in their studies but a core undertaking concerns their capacity to address the rhetorical component of making architecture. The research addressing architectural communication through a social semiotic multimodality lens, particularly in an Irish architectural education setting, is limited. My constructivist leanings underpinned my decision to develop a case study, and use four research tools, a focus group, observation, a questionnaire, and semi-formal interviews. My main research question considers to what extent the multimodal communication resources the participants use, during an observed review, work together to enact meaning? The research forming the frame for this study embodies five intersections between the architectural and social semiotic multimodality domains, namely ‘the environment’, ‘rhetorical component’, ‘resources’, ‘multimodality’, and ‘communication and learning’. Several main findings emerge. The participants’ level of insider knowledge relates directly to their ability to access and participate fully in the shared knowledge and skill base repertoire of the community of practice at the research site and shapes their rhetorical meaning-making. The participants’ multimodal literacy levels regarding choosing and using multimodal resources across the analogue and digital environment influences their ability to make rhetorical meaning. The dynamic nature of the orchestrated ensemble in the observed review underlines the performative aspect of the participants’ rhetorical meaning-making from the social semiotic multimodality angle. In foregrounding the overlapping architectural communication and social semiotic multimodality aspects of the architectural participants’ meaning-making, this study addresses my main research question. The study builds on architectural design and communication research by exploring the issue through an unfamiliar lens and contributes as an exemplar to the limited social semiotic multimodality research focused on meaning-making in the Irish architectural education context.

Thesis (M.Arch.)--Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Dept. of Architecture, 2002.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 135-137).
In a growing globalized world where ideas of connections, transparency and exposure are becoming commonplace, the need will arise to devise an architecture that addresses issues of identity and belonging by creating places that protect the INTIMATE. By looking at a culturally significant housing typology in Buenos Aires, Argentina, one can begin to understand how, one hundred years ago, it achieved a sense of intimacy while remaining modern (modern meaning that with very rational moves, it reaches a high level of simplicity and flexibility) and maintaining a site and culture -specific feel. An analysis and reinterpretation of its major architectural components lead to a formal and conceptual transformation that derived in the proposal of three PROTOTYPICAL URBAN INTERVENTIONS that explored the REFORMULATION of spatial relationships in order to create intimacy within a highly transparent volume. By reinventing a cultural typology one can engage in a discussion about IDENTITY. By creating spaces of intimacy within a world of exposure, it becomes possible to allow one's self to be expressed and thus to intensify and strengthen a feeling of BELONGING to a place. While exploring an architecture of INTERIORITY one can generate an architecture that allows for IMPRINTS to be made, and for TRACES to be read.

When thinking about architecture, I cannot help but think about my life and the things that have affected my life. How does the environment around us effect the daily decisions we make? How do the experiences throughout our life impact who we are and who we become? The people and surroundings we choose will ultimately decide the type of people we become. When we select our surroundings we are in turn selecting our ideal community. Everyone is trying to achieve community in some sense, from individuals to city planners. Council members, politicians, city officials... make decisions everyday based on their idea of what community is to them and their citizens.

Full text
Abstract:
For some time, even if this is not expressed explicitly, 'Chinese architecture' and 'western architecture' are conceived and perceived as two homogeneous totalities, in opposition to one another. In consequence, the fast transformation of Chinese cities in the last three decades is often accounted for in terms of the influence of 'western architecture' upon 'Chinese architecture'. Indeed, the urban growth in this period has involved architectural expertise, products, technologies and designs from Europe and the USA. To some people, what is seen as 'new' is 'western', and hence, the transformation is a process of 'westernisation'. However, this is precisely what the thesis argues against. It argues that to use the category of the 'Chinese' and the 'Western' to explain the products of architecture and urbanism in last thirty years China is neither useful nor appropriate. This thesis concerns the issue of 'conceptual translation' of architectural discourse from Europe and the USA into the context of China, as an opposition to 'linguistic translation' which concerns literal meanings of terms. Its examination focuses on the category that the concept 'western modern' indicates in Chinese architecture, and relates its operation and construction to the importation history of European and American architecture throughout the twentieth century, as well as pedagogy of architectural training, regularisation of design principles and methods, identification of architectural profession, practice of the architects' offices, organisation of design competition, and management of the city, mode of marketing and purchase in the real estate market, state politics and cultural interpretations. The analysis reveals that while waves of importation have sustained the formation of architecture as a modem practice in China from the early twentieth century up to now, they have not arrived as symmetrical reflection of what they are in the 'original' context. A difference, in comparison to European and American architecture, can be characterised by the absence. of a coherent 'modernism' and the continuity of the modified 'Beaux-Arts' practice in Chinese architecture. Therefore, 'fne assumption of 'westernisation' is wrong in its first place, as there is no such distinction that could be made between the 'Chinese' and the 'Western'.

Abstract:
Architecture is made to support certain activities. This thesis asks how architecture might also nurture the uncertain. The program and the conventions of architectural drawing encourage ideas of certainty. The architectural drawing is a rehearsal of the architecture it represents. This thesis searches for ways of drawing to rehearse the sorts of engagement we might have with architecture that could nurture an indeterminate condition. This is studied through the invention of seven types of drawing instrument. The early versions represent an indeterminate relationship with architecture while the later instruments nurture an indeterminate engagement through the act of drawing. Indeterminacy is a condition of uncertainty. At first the instruments concentrate on working with the sublime, an existential uncertainty. In order to understand the spatial potential of picturing there is extended research into the natural history diorama. In parallel to lessons on projective geometry, the dioramas provide a convincing case for the power of the uncanny, an intellectual uncertainty. The lessons from these studies, embodied in Instruments Two and Three, achieved what had been set out in the initial question but also provided new questions, especially about the experience of making the drawing. The later instruments project paint rather than light and provide an engagement with the person who is drawing that is analogous to the condition that is being drawn. The process of drawing becomes a rehearsal for inhabiting the architecture. The instruments are informed by a number of parallel studies: one that asks questions about ways of appropriating the city (as an indeterminate reception of the world as it is given); another into an opening up of the program, studied through a house, and the discovery of a way to disturb our certainty in the shadow and the invention of an instrument to understand the potential of that discovery.

For the last decade many spaces of museums have meet new demands; the spaces are getting less specific to the art it is displaying as the need of flexibility, total control or alteration of light e.g. has increased due to various reasons. For many art forms those conditions can be beneficial. But how one perceive the three-dimensional art of sculpture is something different, than two dimen-sional art such as painting, and there for the demands on the architectural spaces and its qualities are different. A museum exclusively for the art of sculpture does not exist in Stockholm, without it being mixed with other art forms or dedicated to just one artist. Therefor it is of   curtail interest to introduce a museum dedicated to sculpture in the context of Stockholm.

Abstract:
An unbalanced relationship currently exists between man and nature. However, humans are beginning to realize if this uneven relationship continues, it will mean the ultimate demise our world as we know it. This investigation seeks to produce architecture which is in balance with nature. To do this the architecture must act as a living system in diverse ecological environments. If architecture can organize as a living system it will no longer exist as an object on the landscape, rather the architecture will be experienced as an interrelated process essential to the functioning whole. When natural living processes and cultural and social processes combine, a truly environmental architecture may arise. To explore the idea of environmental architecture, a project is proposed as testing grounds. The Midway Thermal Laboratory and Interpretive Center is this project. The site is the Midway Geyser Basin of Yellowstone National Park, WY. The results have produced architecture which is both interactive and responsive to its unique local environment. The architecture provides not only a functional lab space, but also allows the user to experience dynamic space in a dynamic environment.

Abstract:
Multiple trends in computer architecture are beginning to collide as process technology reaches ever smaller feature sizes. Problems with managing power, access times across a die, and increasing complexity to sustain growth are now blocking commercial products like the Pentium 4. These problems also occur in the embedded system space, albeit in a slightly different form. However, as process technology marches on, today's high-performance space is becoming tomorrow's embedded space. New techniques are needed to overcome these problems. In this thesis, we propose a novel architecture called SoftCache to address these emerging issues for embedded systems. We reduce the on-die memory controller infrastructure which reduces both power and space requirements, using the ubiquitous network device arena as a proving ground of viability. In addition, the SoftCache achieves further power and area savings by converting on-die cache structures into directly addressable SRAM and reducing or eliminating the external DRAM. To avoid the burden of programming complexity this approach presents to the application developer, we provide a transparent client-server dynamic binary translation system that runs arbitrary ELF executables on a stripped-down embedded target. One drawback to such a scheme lies in the overhead of additional instructions required to effect cache behavior, particularly with respect to data caching. Another drawback is the power use when fetching from remote memory over the network. The SoftCache comprises a dynamic client-server translation system on simplified hardware, targeted at Intel XScale client devices controlled from servers over the network. Reliance upon a network server as a ``backing store' introduces new levels of complexity, yet also allows for more efficient use of local space. The explicitly software managed aspects create a cache of variable line size, full associativity, and high flexibility. This thesis explores these particular issues, while approaching everything from the perspective of feasibility and actual architectural changes.

Abstract:
Standardization, flexibility and transparency had been the eminent keywords of Modern Architecture that have also provided material for the re-interpretation and re-production of several discussions on concepts like &lsquo
form&rsquo
and &lsquo
function&rsquo
in architecture. This study is an inquiry into a number of different interpretations that scrutinize the intricate relationship between architectural form and function in the 20th century with respect to the concepts defined above. The conceptualization of this thesis will be based on the assumption that function is an inadequate and weak concept for the generation of architectural form. It is in this context that form is accepted as an architectural &ldquo
fragment&rdquo
that attains its autonomy not from the strictures imposed by other architectural fragment like &lsquo
function&rsquo
, &lsquo
structure&rsquo
, &lsquo
program&rsquo
and &lsquo
site
but from an infinite number of internal relationships or &lsquo
design tools&rsquo
as we call. The aim of this study is to propose a project for &ldquo
A Multi &ndash
Functional Hall at METU&rdquo
which has the capability of expanding its limits in future, both physically and conceptually
and investigate the &lsquo
design tools&rsquo
that will direct the steps of transformations in the process of architectural production. Within this framework, the investigation is concerned with the production of a flexible, unstable and indeterminant building, focused on the concepts of &lsquo
transformation of space&rsquo
and &lsquo
constant change&rsquo
, that could be re-designed and re-generated in respect to possible future transformations in the program. Thus, architectural production is defined merely as a &lsquo
step&rsquo
or a &lsquo
snap-shot&rsquo
, controlled by the design tools suggesting the solutions for an ever-lasting transformation as the conditions change.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Sjöfarten består av rederier med fartyg. Fartygen är ofta specialanpassade utefter vad de skall transportera t.ex. oljetankers och biltransportfartyg. Stora delar av branschen är väldigt styrd av konjunkturen och speciellt trampsjöfarten som ofta består av enkelresor med främst olja. Linjesjöfarten som går med t.ex. containrar är mindre känslig. I propellermodeleringen beskrivs det hur det kan gå till att beräkna egenskaperna på en propeller. I Fartygsprojekteringen tas ett fartyg fram som klarar att transportera 12000 containrar (TEU) mellan Rotterdam och Singapore, tur och retur på 40 dagar. Medelvikten på containrarna uppskattas till 14 ton och totalvikten blir 168000 ton. Om medelvikten för containrarna är lägre kan fartyget ta fler containrar (upp till 17000) men ej tyngre än den tidigare totalvikten om fartygets egenskaper ska vara bevarade. För att bära denna vikt konstrueras ett containerfartyg som har ett deplacement på 230000 ton och en lättvikt på 55500 ton. Fartyget är 401 meter långt, 57 meter brett och har ett djupgående, fullastat, på 15,5 meter. Med antagandet att lastning och lossning tar 4 dagar behöver fartyget ha en hastighet på 23 knop för att klara tidsbegränsningen. Motorstyrkan som krävs för att framföra fartyget i denna hastighet är 56696 kW, den motor som har valts är en lågvarvig MAN B&W K98ME7 med ett varvtal på 90-97 varv/min. Fartygsstabiliteten beräknas till mycket god och långt över IMO:s krav. Propellern har en diameter på 9.4 meter, ett stigningsförhållande på 1.2 och bladareaförhållande på 0.42, detta ger en verkningsgrad på 0.60. Propellerns verkningsgrad går att höjas något men då krävs ett högre varvtal så propellern har anpassats för att vara så bra som möjligt vid de angivna motorvarvtalen. En anayls av möjligheterna att segla snabbare än vinden med vinden rakt bakifrån utförs. Resultatet blir att en landfarkost med propeller som drivs av hjulen land kan klara detta. Det är viktigt att tänka på att definitionen av segling är att förflyttning sker med hjälp av energin från vinden och inte att det krävs ett fartyg med segel. Detta fungerar tack vare att hjulets kraft och hastighet mot vägbanan utveklar en effekt. Hjulets hastighet jämfört med marken är större än propellerns hastighet jämfört med luften. Detta medför att propellern kan ge en större kraft än hjulet utan att behöva en större effekt vilket gör att farkosten kan segla snabbare än vinden. I praktiken kommer en större effekt utvecklas vid hjulen än vid propellern då en del av effekten går förlorad i friktion etc. För att detta skall fungera krävs en hastighetsskillnad mellan mark och luft. Ett experiment utförs där ett försök att tydligt visa hur detta fungerar i verkligenheten utförs men misslyckas. Anledningen till misslyckandet var att komponenterna som fanns tillgängliga inte var optimerade för detta ändamål och friktionen blev för stor samtidigt som kraftöverföringen hade för dålig verkningsgrad.

Detta arbete är sammandrag från tre olika rapporter. Den första är Sjöfartsessän som beskriver den moderna sjöfarten och hur den är uppbyggd. Vad som fraktas och vilka som bedriver verksamheten. Den andra delen är en fartygsprojektering. Ett eller flera fartyg skall projekteras för att lösa en transportuppgift. Här görs allt ifrån analyser över fartygsdimensioner till stabilitetsberäkningar och motståndsprediktering.

Abstract:
Arbetet syftar till att oversiktligt beskriva varldens sjofart, studera bladelementteori i en propellerstudie, forprojektera ett handelsfartyg som ska frakta 12 000 TEU ( Twenty{Foot Equivalent Unit) mellan Rotterdam och Singapore pa 40 dagar, samt att utreda regelverket EEDI ( Energy Eciency Design Index ) som ska leda till energieektivisering av sjofarten. Undersokning av sjofarten visar att kostnadseektiva sjotransporter har drivit pa utvecklingen mot en globaliserad varld. Tack vare sjofarten har industrier kunnat etablera sig pa nya omraden, men negativ miljopaverkan ar fortfarande ett problem. Under projekteringen visas att containerfartygets huvuddimensioner uppfyller krav pa lastutrymme och begransningar i Suez{kanalen. Djupgaende och fribord kan andras, men fribord liksom antal vattentata sektioner bor undersokas vidare. Fartyget ar nagot kursinstabilt. Tyngpunkten i vertikalled har en felmarignal pa knappt fyra meter. Propellern har en relativt lag verkningsgrad pa 58%, utrymme nns att optimera losningen. Transporten ar miljomassigt hallbar jamfort med andra transporttyper. Studien av EEDI visar att containerfartygets approximativa CO 2{utslapp pa 10{20 gCO 2/(tonkm) bor sankas till under 5.4 gCO2/(tonkm), exempelvis genom optimerad propellerlosning och motorval. Pa lang sikt kan EEDI minska utslapp av koldioxid fran varldens fartygsotta om det forbattras i enlighet med att ny teknik utvecklas och genom att anvanda den lardom som erhalls.
En ingenjor som arbetar inom omradet marin teknik kan vara allt ifran maskinist och driftsingenjor till skeppsbyggare. Arbetsplatser kan forutom till sjoss vara i exempelvis tillverknings- och processindustrin, eller inom hamn- och rederiverksamhet. Detaljkunskap varierar med omrade, men gemensamt for alla inriktningar ar grundlaggande kunskap om sjofart, skeppsteknik och hallbar utveckling. Syftet med arbetet ar att behandla fyra omraden inom marin teknik: sjofart, propellermodellering, forprojektering av fartyg och energieektivisering av fartyg. Arbetet ar en introduktion till omradet marintekniska system och skeppsbyggnad, och malet ar att med ingenjorsmassiga medel och fardigheter undersoka och losa problem kopplade till detta omrade. Forst sker en allman orientering pa sjofartsmaknaden. Varldens sjofart unders oks i termer av olika sjofartsmaknader och sjofartens aktorer. Det globala transportarbetet, huvudsakliga transportvagar och svenska aspekter for olika marknader utreds, liksom sjofartsaktorernas olika roller. Aven dagens storsta miljorelaterade problem med sjofart undersoks, ochatgarder for att handskas med problemen studeras. En propellerstudie genomfors, dar bladelementteori anvands for att analysera en fartygspropeller. Eektbehov och framdrivning undersoks, och styrkor och begransningar med bladelementteori diskuteras. Under propellermodelleringen implementeras teorin aven i berakningsprogrammet Matlab. Arbetet redovisas i Bilaga 2. Resultat och kunskap fran propellerstudien anvands i arbetets andra del, forprojektering av ett handelsfartyg. Forprojekteringen behandlar transportscenariot att frakta 12 000 TEU ( Twenty{Foot Equivalent Unit) mellan Rotterdam och Singapore pa 40 dagar. Bland annat undersoks stabilitet, motstand och eektbehov, samt framdrivning for handelsfartyg. Bivillkor, som att ta hansyn till fysiska begransningar i hamnar och folja internationella regelverk om intaktstabilitet och vattentata sektioner, samt att studera losningen ur ett hallbarhetsperspektiv, behandlas ocksa under forprojekteringen. Arbetets sista del handlar om energieektivisering av fartyg. Sjotransporter ar miljomassigt komplicerade och darfor gors en studie av IMO:s framtagna regelverk EEDI, ett regelverk som tradde i kraft i ar och syftar till att minska utslapp av vaxthusgasen CO 2 fran varldens sjofart. Fragorna "Vilka energieektiviseringar kan komma av EEDI?" och "Vilken problematik nns kopplad till EEDI?" besvaras, och det tidigare projekterade fartyget undersoks i termer av energieektivisering.

Abstract:
In a world of excess, people rarely stop to realize their impact on their environments. Our built environment is especially feeling the effect of our irresponsibility, and the solution is only a matter of re-wiring our perceptions of energy usage. Many technologies make it possible to have the impossible, but nobody stops to question whether or not these advances are beneficial. A presumably sustainable system turned out to be one of the most energy wasteful ones in existence. In the complex process of getting food from the field to your house, the best solution is to simplify. Nature will do most of the work; we need to learn to work with it. Current building practices can benefit greatly from this concept, to rethink the existing process by simply cutting out the unneeded steps and using the free energy available to us every day. Our values need to change. Because the corporation controls so much of our daily lives, they are the ones that will bring about the change in consciousness we desperately need. By re-designing Sysco headquarters to do everything that the company claims to do (and currently doesn't), and interact with the public in a new and radical way, not only can we make changes to how we think about the built environment, but we can also start to show that a change in awareness is entirely possible. If we can change the values of those that make the biggest differences in our world, then we've effectively changed an entire populations' way of thinking.

Abstract:
Continued population growth is inevitable to Montana's future. This can be seen as a source of great alarm or great opportunity. If suburbanization of Montana's agricultural and wild mountain landscapes continues, eventually that which makes Montana so appealing - its open space - will disappear. Future growth should be seen as an opportunity to densify and enrich Montana's existing urban centers. However, prevailing attitudes of what it means to live in Montana as well as economic and infrastructural constructs, currently promote a gradually expanding low density sprawl. As important as open landscapes and nature are to the identity and appeal of Montana, continued population growth means man-made structures are increasingly becoming the dominant presence on the land. Perhaps instead of pressing low density architecture outward over the landscape, the landscape can be drawn into the architecture. By providing an urban park of densely layered activity but defined by a spacial characteristic of openness, a surrounding urbanity can be made possible which still retains Montana's defining character and appeal. This project will be a proactive architectural act, an urban catalyst for change. It will utilize the concepts of Landscape Infrastructure, Terrain Vague, and The Fold to give a sense of ambiguity and slipperyness to the program and allow it to relate to both urban and ecological frameworks. This ambiguity will allow for the interpretive freedom necessary for the assertion of individual identity to occur, as well as give the project an ability to adapt to future changes in the urban (and rural) fabric. Individual programs will be defined based on local needs, and where these separate (and perhaps strikingly disparate) programs intersect, nodes of unpredictable excitement can manifest. Introducing a public, open ended, multi-layered program designed with both specificity and ambiguity will provide an answer to the western conflict between freedom of the individual and the shared environmental responsibility of land stewardship.

Abstract:
Information architecture has become one of the latest areas of excitement within the library and information science (LIS) community, largely resulting from the recognition it garners from those outside of the field for the methods and practices of information design and management long seen as core to information science. The term, â â information architectureâ â (IA), was coined by Richard Wurman in 1975 to describe the need to transform data into meaningful information for people to use, a not entirely original idea, but certainly a first-time conjunction of the terms into the now common IA label. Building on concepts in architecture, information design, typography, and graphic design, Wurmanâ s vision of a new field lay dormant for the most part until the emergence of the World Wide Web in the 1990s, when interest in information organization and structures became widespread. The term came into vogue among the broad web design community as a result of the need to find a way of communicating shared interests in the underlying organization of digitally accessed information.
