1. 26. Experimental study on effective width through openings using Kinect

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Brandteknik

   Author : Juan Manuel Chaves Posada; [2018]
   Keywords : Kinect; Effective Width; Effective Width Through Openings; Boundary Layer; Flow Through Openings; Pedestrian Tracking; Low-Density Flows; Pedestrian Dynamics; Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : The effective width model was introduced to show how the flow was linearly proportional to the effective width on stairwells accounting for the edge effect as well as lateral body sway. In this sense, small increments on the width of the stairwell were proven to increment the flow through it in a linear manner. READ MORE

3. 27. HOP!: a PGIS and citizen science approach to monitoring the condition of upland paths

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Niamh Harty; [2018]
   Keywords : geography; GIS; Participatory GIS; Citizen Science; path surveys; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : This research project was inspired by the increase in popularity of hillwalking and the problem of the lack of monitoring and maintenance of upland paths which may lead to serious deterioration of those paths. Wicklow Mountains National Park (WMNP), just south of Dublin City in Ireland, has a large network of mostly informal upland paths. READ MORE

4. 28. Spatial Modeling of Wildlife Crossing:GIS-based Approach for Identifying High-priority Locations of Defragmentation across Transport Corridors

   University essay from KTH/Geoinformatik

   Author : Josefine Jonsson; [2017]
   Keywords : wildlife crossing; GIS; Circuit Theory; habitat; defragmentation;

   Abstract : In this report, connectivity modeling has been performed using land cover data to find habitat pinch-points for deer along the study area Norrortsleden in Stockholm. Norrortsleden was chosen because there are a high number of deer accidents in the area, and is a priority area for action according to a barrier analysis for deer made by the Swedish Transport Administration.

Vanligen används gummimattor som installeras ovanpå betongspalten för att få en mjukare, eftergivlig, yta. READ MORE

6. 30. Dam site selection using an integrated method of AHP and GIS for decision making support in Bortala, Northwest China

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för naturgeografi och ekosystemvetenskap

   Author : Xinyi Dai; [2016]
   Keywords : Bortala; site selection; MCDM; GIS; AHP; Northwest China; physical geography and ecosystem science; GEM; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

   Abstract : Constructing dam is a possible solution for remitting the scarcity of irrigation water resource in Bortala, Northwest China. Considering the complexity of dam site selection, Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) was chosen in combination of Geographic Information System (GIS) as the method of Multi-Criteria Decision Making on selecting dam site.
