  1. 1. Pedestrian movement and exposure to heat stress in Gothenburg, Sweden

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Madeleine Cleverstam Vikström; [2023-06-22]
    Keywords : urban climate; heat stress; Space Syntax; pedestrian movement; urban morphology;

    Abstract : An area in Gothenburg, Sweden, representing various planning designs and microclimates, were investigated, in order to estimate how the study area manifests potential pedestrian movement patterns and urban climate conditions in terms of heat stress. The study is based on the Geographical Information System (GIS) where pedestrian movement and heat stress is calculated. READ MORE

  3. 2. Creating safe, lively and attractive street spaces in city centres : A case study of Nygatan and Järnagatan in Södertälje

    University essay from KTH/Urbana och regionala studier

    Author : Bakhaya Jeanette; Felicia Norlin; [2023]
    Keywords : sustainability; safe; alive; attractive; street space; city centre; street; design; urban form; mobility; environment; social; enjoyment; movement; public places; pedestrian friendly; hållbarhet; trygg; levande; attraktiv; gaturum; stadskärna; gata; utformning; stadsform; mobilitet; miljö; socialt; njutning; rörelse; offentliga platser; gångvänligt;

    Abstract : Throughout time, cities have been built in different ways and city structures can look different in different places in the world. The urban planning ideal has changed and small narrow alleys in the city have today been replaced by large roads adapted for cars. READ MORE

  4. 3. Evaluation of algorithms for accurate micro-doppler effects measurement in FMCW radar

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fysik, elektroteknik och matematik; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

    Author : Morgan Agerstig Rosenqvist; [2023]
    Keywords : Radar; FMCW; micro-Doppler; RPM;

    Abstract : Micro-Doppler effects are phenomena that occur because of micro-motion. A micro-motion is either a vibration, rotation, or acceleration which is small relative to the motion of the target. These effects can be used in order to characterize a target through their signature movement. READ MORE

  5. 4. Skolvägen ur barns perspektiv : en studie över barns rörelse genom sin närmiljö

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Landscape Architecture, Planning and Management (from 130101)

    Keywords : barns perspektiv; barns hälsa; rörelsefrihet; trafikmiljö; vardagsmiljö; trygghet; säkerhet;

    Abstract : Att barn har tillgång till en trygg och säker skolväg är grundläggande för barns rörelsefrihet. En bra skolväg har potentialen att öka barns fysiska aktivitet och självständiga rörelse. READ MORE

  6. 5. 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
