La première partie de cette thèse traite du développement du code de simulation numérique directe YWC, principalement du développement des conditions aux limites. En effet, une forte contribution scientifique a été apportée aux conditions aux limites appelées "Three dimensional Navier-Stokes characteristic boundary condtions" (3D-NSCBC). Premièrement, la formulation de ces conditions aux arêtes et coins a été complétée, ensuite une extension de la formulation a été proposée pour supprimer les déformations observées en sortie dans le cas d'écoulements non-perpendiculaires à la frontière. <p>De

Abstract:

In order to simulate inviscid/viscous compressible flowfields about 3-D realistic aerodynamic bodies, the combined use of an implicit, upwind biased real gas scheme with 3-D fully conservative patched grid techniques is discussed. An "equivalent" gamma formulation is implemented in order to model real gas effects in Van Leer's flux vector splitting (FVS) and Roe’s flux difference splitting (FDS) scheme. A hybrid approximate-factorization (AF)/relaxation algorithm is used as an efficient solver of the Euler, parabolized Navier-Stokes, and thin-layer Navier-Stokes equations. Two different approa

Abstract:

The study investigates farmers' decision to afforest marginal agricultural land to create carbon sinks in western Canada. A real option model, which incorporates price risks related to carbon and timber revenues as well as opportunity cost uncertainty, is used to assess the impact of a carbon market on farmers' afforestation decision. Irreversibility of the decision is also modeled by including sunk cost of forest establishment and the cost of reversing the afforestation process. In addition, the non-permanence impact on the profitability of afforestation was analyzed by assessing the effect o

Academic language should not be a ghetto dialect at odds with ordinary language, but rather an extension that is compatible with lay-language.

Instead of the impossible mission of turning the common word into an analytic concept, a useful task for an ontology of games is to model game differences, to show how the things we call games can be different from each other in a n

In the first case the volatility of the diffusion term is dependent on the current level of public good, while in the second case the volatility is dependent on the current rate of public good provision by the agents.

Abstract:

We are studying the use of tilt-enabled handheld touchscreen devices as an interface for top-down strategy games. We will explore how using different input modes (tilt and touch) compare for certain tasks in terms of efficiency and comfort. Real-time and turn-based strategy games are a popular form of electronic gaming, though these games currently have only minor representation on tablets. This genre of game requires both a wide variety of input and the display of a wealth of information. We are exploring whether, with suitable interface developments, this genre can become as accessible on ta

Abstract:

Communicating design is in many aspects a difficult process. Game design is not only directives on look and feel, but also carries intentionality. To properly convey intentionality, a common abstract vocabulary is a well-established method for expressing design. Game design patterns are an attempt to formalize and establish such a vocabulary. Game design patterns are a debated tool and this paper aims to examine the practical application of a pattern through a quantitative study in order to strengthen the potential for a more cohesive definition of the term. This is done by first establishing

Abstract:

<p>Color has been significant in visual arts for as long as the art-forms have existed. Still images and movies have long used colors and color grading effects to affect the viewer and characterize the work. In recent years attempts have been made to bring these techniques of stylizing also to interactive games. This dissertation aims to compare two different approaches of performing real-time color grading for games. Focus is put on examining the two ways from a number of different perspectives and from there draw conclusions on advantages and disadvantages of the approaches. The results show

Abstract:

This thesis aims to highlight, analyse and problematize how sexualities and relationships are constructed as normative and deviant in the Hunger Games trilogy through the character Katniss Everdeen. With this analysis, the thesis aims to further elucidate the pluralism of meaning within literature as a contribution to the field of feminist cultural studies. Queer theory and queer temporality studies have been used to identify and discuss concepts such as the heterosexual matrix, monogamy and mononormativity, polyamory and other marginalized sexualities. A thematic queer reading serves as a met

Abstract:

The proliferation of the Internet and online-based social interactions has become an increasingly popular topic with communication scholars. The goal of this study was to explore how massively multi-player online role playing game (MMORPG) players make sense of and negotiate their online social interactions. This study (N = 292) examined how players of SecondLife and World of Warcraft evaluated their online relationships compared to their offline relationships and investigated how different levels of realism within different MMORPGs effected player's online experiences. The results indicated t

Abstract:

Context: Fluid-particle systems are seldom used in games, the apparent performance costs of simulating a fluid-particle system discourages the developer to implement a system of such. The processing power delivered by a modern GPU enables the developer to implement complex particle systems such as fluid-particle systems. Writing efficient fluid-particle systems is the key when striving for real-time fluid-particle simulations with good scalability. Objectives: This thesis ultimately tries to provide the reader with a well-performing and scalable fluid-particle system simulated in real-time usi

Abstract:

If a computer game company wants to stay competitive they must offer something extra. For many years, this extra has often been synonymous with better graphics. Lately, and thanks to the Internet, the focus has shifted in favour of more multi-player support. This also means that the requirements of one-player games increases. Our proposal, to meet these new requirements, is that future game AI is made more human-like. One way to achieve this is believed to be the use of learning AI techniques, such as genetic algorithms and neural networks. In this thesis we will present the results from an ex

Destructive environments in video games are a feature that can give a gamemore depth and realism by being able to change the landscape or raze a building.This report talks about the research and implementation of a dynamicdestruction system for the video game Scrap Mechanic. The end results are asystem that could split convex 3D meshes to smaller pieces in almost real-time.It was a somewhat stable implementation that needs some future work beforeit can be used in the game. Therefore, in this report, things that could beimproved with the current implementation and how to use it are discussed.
