Abstract:

The University of Virginia is currently constructing an Arts Studio building in the parking lot of their Architecture School. The University's original Jeffersonian foundation and its repeated imitation throughout history has told its citizens that this is what the architecture of the University must be, without actually questioning the reasons. Can we design new, exciting buildings that still belong on the campus without designing exactly as Jefferson did two-hundred years ago? This Thesis is my own design for UVA's Art Studio building. In this design I have used the interaction of wall

Abstract:

This thesis illustrates the relationship between body and space in the process of identity construction amongst groups of young men of migrant origins between 16 and 21 practicing capoeira and parkour in Turin's public spaces. Urban spaces in contemporary Turin, Italy, are contested sites where competing images of society, politics and citizenship are (re)produced and negotiated. While at a national level, widespread xenophobic discourses define immigrants and their children as alien bodies in Italian cities, Turin leaderships and cultural entrepreneurs aiming to attract visitors and capital i

Abstract:

The thesis takes the form of a residential house, exploring different ways of separating a space while answering different needs for solitude. It experimented with a diversity of architectural devices designed to demarcate functional units in the house with respect to their varying demands for solitude. Individual spaces are examined based on where they fall on the spectrum: from the most secluded to the most inclusive. Efforts are made to refrain from resorting to full size walls when not necessary. The actual means of separation used for a certain space is usually a balance between the desir

Abstract:

Wide spaced reinforced masonry (WSRM) walls that contain vertical reinforced cores at horizontal spacing up to 2000mm are commonly used in high wind zones of Australia although their inplane shear resistance is not well understood. This thesis aims at providing better insight into the behaviour of WSRM walls subjected to inplane lateral loading through experimental and numerical investigations. The interactions between the unreinforced masonry (URM) panels and vertical reinforced cores are first determined using an elastic finite element analysis and the potential failure paths hypothesized.

This thesis focuses on interaction between universities and industry in Wales and how it is affected by different spaces of knowledge. The subject of university-industry collaboration is topical in both recent research and policy. Previous research into university-industry interaction has suggested that reintegrating the scientific research performed in industrial R&D and academia can lead to increased innovative activity and thence to economic growth, a goal for economically peripheral regions such as Wales. It has also drawn attention to the importance of social processes in the establishmen

Abstract:

wilderness and urban texture Since the earliest beginnings of civilization, mankind has strived to form urban space by limiting its outlines and bringing a system of order to the wilderness of nature. Thus street and place mark the public space clearly bound by built mass, the enclosure of the more private space. In many modern cities of the United States the urban counterpart of street and place the continuous building mass is largely missing. Colin Rowe describes this phenomena as the unpleasant condition of urban texture of the modern city. If we want to fix that urban wilderness of

The rapid pace of industrial growth in South Korea over the last few decades has radically altered the way people live. As the population began to shift from the countryside to the city to pursue a better life by working in manufacturing and services in lieu of agriculture, the dense urban condition began to arise as a result of this endless influx. There had been neither the time nor the technology available to take account of the occupantsâ comfort. Moreover, after the Korean war in 1950, many families were split apart and this caused the longing to accommodate a family together to become

It looks at the specific school spaces that these children occupy in the school, during different times of the day, and looks at the ways in which these spatial negotiations inform their gendered

Religion is an important part of every culture, but the impact religion has on structuring material culture is not well understood.

The principal aim of this thesis is to construct an indicator model which can archaeologically identify religious behaviour. The basis for the proposed model stems directly from recurrent religious phenomena.

Magister Artium - MA<br>This thesis is a critical study of a conservation project on restoration of a Stone Wall at Bluestone Quarry on Robben Island, a world heritage site. The Stone Wall was built by the ex-political prisoners, in the early 1960s, as part of their hard labour. The thesis mainly focuses on the contestations that arose during the twelve year period of the project (2002 to 2014) among the stakeholders that included the ex-political prisoners, the environmentalists, the heritage managers and South African Heritage Resource Agency. Central to this study was the question, when a r

Abstract:

In this thesis we investigate wall-crossing phenomena in the stability manifold of an irreducible principally polarized abelian surface for objects with the same invariants as (twists of) ideal sheaves of points. In particular, we construct a sequence of fine moduli spaces which are related by Mukai flops and observe that the stability of these objects is completely determined by the configuration of points. Finally, we use Fourier-Mukai theory to show that these moduli are projective.

Abstract:

Esta dissertação tem como tema a “Valorização Patrimonial da Cerca do Convento de Nossa Senhora dos Remédios em Évora”. Compõe-se de quatro capítulos, nos quais se procura demonstrar a importância deste tipo de património. Para compreender o espaço cemiterial, iniciou-se o trabalho com o estudo do conjunto conventual de que faz parte, desde a fundação do Convento até à sua extinção. Procedeu-se depois ao estudo do Cemitério, da inauguração até aos nossos dias, o objectivo seguido para a sua implantação e o seu traçado. Analisou-se o estado de conservação actual, com vista a chamar a atenção pa

Abstract:

Ground penetrating radar (GPR) has been extensively utilized as a highly efficient and non-destructive testing method for infrastructure evaluation, such as highway rebar detection, bridge decks inspection, asphalt pavement monitoring, underground pipe leakage detection, railroad ballast assessment, etc. The focus of this dissertation is to investigate the key techniques to tackle with GPR signal processing from three perspectives: (1) Removing or suppressing the radar clutter signal; (2) Detecting the underground target or the region of interest (RoI) in the GPR image; (3) Imaging the undergr
