1. 1. The dancing qualities of the cinematic space: a methodological experiment in order to perceive the motion picture as a dancing body.

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för konsthistoria och visuella studier

   Author : Gianmarco Donaggio; [2022]
   Keywords : Cinematic space; postmodern dance; movement; phenomenology; film; avant-garde; Arts and Architecture; Performing Arts; Philosophy and Religion;

   Abstract : The thesis is proposing a method to perceive the cinematic space as a body in motion. The foundation for such an experimental method is traced within the investigation of the movement in the study of the motion picture, as well as in a phenomenological approach to dance, and in selected theories from the continental philosophy of the 20th century.

3. 2. Computational and accuracy benchmarking of simulation and system-theoretic models for production systems engineering

   University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

   Author : Antonio José Ramos Calderón; [2021]
   Keywords : DES; benchmarking; lean buffer; optimization; simulation software; performance measure; plant simulation; FACTS; PSE toolbox;

   Abstract : The modern industry has an increasing demand for simulation software able to help workers and decision-makers visualize the outputs of a specific process in a fast, accurate way. In this report, a comparative study between FACTS (Factory Analyses in ConcepTual phase using Simulation), Plant Simulation, and PSE (Production System Engineering) Toolbox is done regarding their capacity to simulate models with increasing complexity, how accurate they are in their outputs with different optimized buffer allocations, and how well they perform on the task of detecting the bottlenecks of a process.

4. 3. A System for Affective Touch in Humanoid and Social Robotics

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Kognitionsvetenskap

   Author : Martin Gunnar Karlsson; [2021]
   Keywords : Humanoid robotics; social robotics; cognitive robotics; affective touch; touch types; machine learning; emotional repsonse; colour expression; colour and emotion; HRI; human-robot-interaction; tactile interaction; social interaction; robotics; somatosensory system; artificial neural network; ANN; support vector machine; SVM; communication; cognition; somatosensation; Philosophy and Religion;

   Abstract : A system for affective touch has been constructed, in a study of humanoid and social robotics. The system detects, processes and analyses signals from touch, identifies touch types, and provides a corresponding emotional response and expression. READ MORE

5. 4. A topic model-based approach for ontology extension in the computational materials science domain

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Institutionen för datavetenskap

   Author : Tong Zhang; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : With the continuous development and progress of human society, the demand for advanced materials in all walks of life is increasing day by day. No matter in the agrarian age or the information age, human beings have always been tireless in the study of materials science, and the field of computational materials science has been the exploration of computational methods in materials science.

6. 5. An Open Source Energy Modelling Framework Comparison of OSeMOSYS and oemof

   University essay from KTH/Energisystemanalys

   Author : Christoph Muschner; [2020]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Well-founded research is needed to gain sound insights into the relationship between energy and the environment in order to ensure a basis for responsible policy-making in the face of a climate crisis. Transparency in code and data is a prerequisite for reproducible research in energy modelling and its quality assurance and is embedded in the philosophy of open source energy modelling frameworks (OSEMFs).
