  1. 1. Moving in the dark : Mathematics of complex pedestrian flows

    University essay from Karlstads universitet/Fakulteten för hälsa, natur- och teknikvetenskap (from 2013)

    Author : Meghashyam Veluvali; [2023]
    Keywords : Mathematical modelling of pedestrian dynamics; stochastic systems; evacuation time; random walk method; parabolic equation; finite difference method;

    Abstract : The field of mathematical modelling for pedestrian dynamics has attracted significant scientific attention, with various models proposed from perspectives such as kinetic theory, statistical mechanics, game theory and partial differential equations. Often such investigations are seen as being a part of a new branch of study in the domain of applied physics, called sociophysics. READ MORE

  3. 2. NUMERICAL NARRATIVE GAME MECHANICS : Theories and Concepts for conveying narratives via numerical mechanics in games

    University essay from Högskolan i Skövde/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Yifei Yan; [2022]
    Keywords : Narrative game mechanics; Game design; Numerical game mechanics; Game user experiences; Narratology;

    Abstract : In the fields of game design and interactive storytelling, it is of value to consider game mechanics, narrative design, and how they connect and influence each other. Dubbelman’s Narrative game mechanics theory (2016) started an argumentation that certain game mechanics can serve greater narrative power.

  4. 3. The Heroes We Never Are: Interpellation, Subjugation, and the Encoded Other in Fantasy CRPGs

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Masterprogram: Litteratur - Kultur – Media

    Author : Hassen Taiari; [2020]
    Keywords : literary studies; electronic literature; fantasy; game studies; role-playing games; Languages and Literatures;

    Abstract : This thesis explores the topic of interpellation and subjugation in fantasy computer role-playing games (CRPGs). Using an assemblage-based framework, I argue that CRPG players are hailed and manipulated by the interplay of several texts and dynamics—mainly prose, code, numerical values, rule sets, and mechanics.

  5. 4. Rally Sport Racing Game: CodeName Space Racer - An evaluation of techniques used when developing a marketable 3D game

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknik

    Author : Maria Lemón; Gustav Örnvall; Daniel Axelsson; Ludvig Gjälby; Joakim Råman; Markus Pettersson; Sebastian Almlöf; [2012-08-09]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : In this thesis, various modern game programming and modeling techniques are presented, with a focus on algorithms for graphical effects. A few of those techniques have then been selected and implemented in a graphics-intensive racing game set in an open space environment. The game is developed from the ground up in C# with the XNA 4.0 framework. READ MORE
