1. 6. Bayesian Inference in Terrain Navigation

   Författare :Niclas Bergman; Linköpings universitet; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

   Sammanfattning : Terrain navigation is a concept for autonomous aircraft navigation. If measurements of the terrain height over mean sea-level are collected along the aircraft flight path, an estimate of the aircraft position can be formed by matching these measurements with a digital reference terrain map. This matching is a recursive nonlinear estimation problem. LÄS MER

3. 7. Arkitekturens kroppslighet. Staden som terräng

   Författare :Emma Nilsson; Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Terrain; material culture; ubiquitous gaming; gameplay; relational architecture; play; traceur; parkour; Night Climbers of Cambridge; ANT; body materiality; body techniques; corporality;

   Sammanfattning : Beginning with the notion that spatial and material qualities of architecture set limits and create conditions for how we make use of it, the overall aim and ambition of this thesis is to develop this notion and to contribute to a deeper understanding of the relationships that are produced between the materiality of architecture and a bodily appropriation of it. To investigate this the thesis establishes two concepts: corporality and terrain. LÄS MER

4. 8. Terrain navigation for underwater vehicles

   Författare :Ingemar Nygren; Magnus Jansson; Stephen Rock; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Signal processing; Signalbehandling;

   Sammanfattning : In this thesis a terrain positioning method for underwater vehicles called the correlation method is presented. Using the method the vehicle can determine its absolute position with the help of a sonar and a map of the bottom topography. LÄS MER

5. 9. Wind turbines over a hilly terrain: performance and wake evolution

   Författare :Ann Hyvärinen; P. Henrik Alfredsson; Antonio Segalini; Leonardo P. Chamorro; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Fluid mechanics; wind turbines; complex terrain; wind-tunnel measurements; Strömningsmekanik; vindturbiner; komplex terräng; vindtunnelmätningar; Engineering Mechanics; Teknisk mekanik;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this licentiate thesis is to investigate wind-turbines placed in a complex-terrain environment. This is done by studying the flow around small-scale wind-turbine models placed over a landscape model with hills, and by comparing the results with corresponding data obtained over a flat terrain model.

7. 10. Across a Most Radical Terrain : Towards an Aesthetics of Dissention

   Författare :Ola Ståhl; UK University of Leeds; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Ethico-Aesthetics; Contemporary Art; Artist Collectives; Collaboration; Micro-Politics; Deleuze and Guattari; Spinoza; Art science; Konstvetenskap;

   Sammanfattning : The 1990s saw a tendency within the field of contemporary artistic practice for outwards expansion: artistic projects increasingly got involved in wider social and political contexts; transversal and transdisciplinary links were established with other forms of practice; collaboration and participation became the explicit form and sometimes material of artistic practices; the group, collective or network was increasingly posed as an alternative to the individual artist in much the same way as the self-organized, artist-run space set itself up as an alternative to art institutions and galleries. Taking as its point of departure such notion of expansion within the field of artistic production, this thesis sets out to explore the aesthetics developed by these practices, and the link this aesthetics poses to ethical and political trajectories.
