  1. 1. Data-Driven Reachability Analysis of Pedestrians Using Behavior Modes : Reducing the Conservativeness in Data-Driven Pedestrian Predictions by Incorporating Their Behavior

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : August Söderlund; [2023]
    Keywords : Data-driven reachability analysis; Autonomous vehicles; Automated safety; Autonomous situational awareness; Datadriven nåbarhetsanalys; Autonoma fordon; Automatiserad säkerhet; Autonom situationsmedvetenhet;

    Abstract : Predicting the future state occupancies of pedestrians in urban scenarios is a challenging task, especially considering that conventional methods need an explicit model of the system, hence introducing data-driven reachability analysis. Data-driven reachability analysis uses data, inherently produced by an unknown system, to perform future state predictions using sets, generally represented by zonotopes. READ MORE

  3. 2. Procedural generation and weathering of building facades : Replicating shape and distribution of wear-and-tear on real-world building facades

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Love Wessman; [2023]
    Keywords : procedural modeling; building facades; wear and tear; procedurell modellering; byggnadsfasader; slitage;

    Abstract : Manual modeling of building facades can be a cumbersome process. Instead, procedurally modeling building facades is a practical and quick way to achieve impressive visual results. This paper presents a method for prototyping 2D facades existing in a 3d environment, with the inclusion of shading-based procedural wear-and-tear. READ MORE

  4. 3. Kulturljudzon Sofielund, Malmö: : a study on the residents’ auditory perception

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of People and Society

    Author : Amanda Schmidt; [2023]
    Keywords : noise perception; soundscape; kulturljudzon; mixed-use city; urban environment; landscape architecture; environmental psychology;

    Abstract : To become better at planning vibrant mixed-use cities, we need to know more about soundscapes and noise perception in urban environments. The development towards culture being pushed out from the cities lead to the creation of a kulturljudzon in Malmö, where culture and industry sounds are allowed to exist almost unrestricted.

  5. 4. Soundscapes i Rosendal

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Urban and Rural Development

    Author : Lisa Vogel; [2023]
    Keywords : soundscape; ljudlandskap; ljudgestaltning; ljud; buller;

    Abstract : Ljud är en viktig upplevelsemässig aspekt i landskapet. Ljud inom landskapsarkitekturen tenderar dock att underprioriteras i förhållande till visuella aspekter. Traditionellt handlar design gällande ljud i landskapet om att reducera ljud, då problematiken kring buller i städer är ständigt närvarande och kan leda till hälsoproblem. READ MORE

  6. 5. Estetiska värden hos gröna tak

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

    Author : Stina Ekström; [2023]
    Keywords : gröna tak; extensiva gröna tak; takvegetation; kulturella ekosystemtjänster; urbanisering; klimat; hälsa; estetik;

    Abstract : Grönblå infrastruktur och naturbaserade lösningar i staden blir allt viktigare med de klimatförändringar som pågår. I den urbana miljön kan gröna tak bidra med viktiga ekosystemtjänster för att t ex fördröja dagvattenavrinningen från tak, dämpa buller nära bygganden, rena luft, öka biologisk mångfald samt förbättra kulturella och estetiska värden.
