  1. 1. Implementation of Level of Development for BIM Collaboration in Timber Building Subsystems Design: A Case Study of I-Joist Construction Elements

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Isabell Gustafsson; [2024]
    Keywords : BIM; I-Joist; LOD; Level of Development; Timber Building Subsystems;

    Abstract : Due to time, cost, and environmental challenges, wood has become a more common building material even for more complex buildings. Implementing the concept of Level of Development (LOD) on timber structures could provide a tool for BIM collaboration that may save cost and time, and in the early stages mediate wood as an available building material.

  2. 2. Are Distributional Variables Useful for Forecasting With the Phillips Curve?

    University essay from Handelshögskolan i Stockholm/Institutionen för nationalekonomi

    Author : Elsa Rosengren; Pippa Johns; [2024]
    Keywords : Distributional Variables; Heterogeneous Agents; Inflation; Phillips Curve; Inequality;

    Abstract : Does information on the distribution of wealth and income help us forecast aggregate macroeconomic variables? In this thesis, we study how adding such distributional variables to a standard forecasting model affects the forecast accuracy, in the context of inflation forecasting. Using the simulated inflation forecasting approach of Atkeson and Ohanian (2001), we perform a horse race between a textbook NAIRU Phillips curve to an extension augmented with variables from the wealth and income distributions.

  4. 4. GETTING READY TO LEARN IN VR

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för pedagogik, kommunikation och lärande

    Author : Alice Zupančič; [2023-10-10]
    Keywords : VR; Virtual reality; collaborative VR; collaborative learning; immersive virtual environments; virtual learning environments; user onboarding; VR onboarding;

    Abstract : Purpose: VR’s unique affordances offer significant potential for education, but the steep learning curve hinders users from fully benefiting from the technology. Onboarding plays a pivotal role in bridging the gap between novice users and the complexities of collaborative VR environments, contributing to the broader goal of making VR education more accessible and user-friendly.

  5. 5. Comparing the Locality Preservation of Z-order Curves and Hilbert Curves

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

    Author : Alex Nordin; Adam Telles; [2023-08-03]
    Keywords : space-filling curve; software engineering; software testing;

    Abstract : Developing and testing software in the automotive industry and in the research of autonomous vehicles requires the costly querying of multidimensional data recorded from such a vehicle’s various sensors. Through encoding such data using space filling curves, faster queries could be achieved by reducing multiple dimensions into a singular dimension, while exploiting the patterns that emerge in the one-dimensional representation to still get accurate search results.
