1. 1. Designing with Urban Sound : Exploring methods for qualitative sound analysis of the built environment

   Författare :Nina Hällgren; Katja Grillner; Björn Hellström; Gunnar Sandin; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Architectue; urban sound design; urban sound planning; soundscape; urban planning; artistic research; architectural research;

   Sammanfattning : The licentiate thesis Designing with Urban Sound explores the constitution and qualitative characteristics of urban sonic space from a design-oriented and practice-based perspective. The act of lifting forth and illuminating the interaction between architecture, the creation of sound and a sonic experience aims to examine and develop useful tools and methods for the representation, communication and analysis of the exterior sonic environment in complex architectural spaces.

3. 2. Quantum chemical calculations of non-linear optical absorption

   Författare :Peter Cronstrand; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :quantum chemical; non-linear optical; multi-photon absorption;

   Sammanfattning : This thesis represents a quantum chemical treatise ofvarious types of interactions between radiation and molecularsystems, with special emphasis on the nonlinear opticalprocesses of Multi-Photon Absorption and Excited StateAbsorption. Excitation energies, transition dipole moments,two-photon and three-photon tensor elements have beencalculated from different approaches; density functional theoryandab-initiotheory, employing different orders ofcorrelation treatment with the purpose to provide accuratevalues as well as evaluate the quality of the lower ordermethods.

4. 3. Multitemporal Remote Sensing for Urban Mapping using KTH-SEG and KTH-Pavia Urban Extractor

   Författare :Alexander Jacob; Yifang Ban; Paolo Gamba; Francesca Bovolo; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; KTH-SEG; ASAR; HJ-1B; Urban Land Cover Mapping; OBIA; Segmentation; Image Classification; KTH-Pavia Urban Extractor; Urban Extent; Geodesy and Geoinformatics; Geodesi och geoinformatik;

   Sammanfattning : The objective of this licentiate thesis is to develop novel algorithms and improve existing methods for urban land cover mapping and urban extent extraction using multi-temporal remote sensing imagery. Past studies have demonstrated that synthetic aperture radar (SAR) have very good properties for the analysis of urban areas, the synergy of SAR and optical data is advantageous for various applications.

5. 4. Produktionsnoveller : Om Folkforms arbete med Masonite och andra material

   Författare :Anna Holmquist; Sara Ilstedt; Mona Livholts; Johanna Rosenqvist; Andreas Nobel; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Industrial craftsmanship; design; narrative methodology; practice-led research; material; Masonite; Production Novellas; design research; Folkform; Industriellt hantverk; design; narrativ metod; praktikbaserad forskning; material; Masonite; produktionsnoveller; designforskning; Folkform; Art; Technology and Design; Konst; teknik och design;

   Sammanfattning : A large part of the production today is manufactured so far from the consumer that there is no connection to the production. That there have historically been direct connections between an industry and the people, local traditions and material assets of the place is easily forgotten. LÄS MER

7. 5. Ensuring elderly mobility : environmental and safety issues

   Författare :Roya Bamzar; Vania Ceccato; Marianne Abramsson; KTH; []
   Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Elderly; safe mobility; environment; Planering och beslutsanalys; Planning and Decision Analysis;

   Sammanfattning : The aim of this thesis is to provide a better understanding of the issues of safe mobility ‎for the elderly population in Sweden. ‎This is achieved first by assessing the geography and patterns of ‎elderly falls at the county level and then by conducting a detailed survey with residents in senior ‎housing to investigate the relationship between indoor and/or outdoor environmental ‎characteristics and elderly safety.
