  1. 1. URBAN SEGREGATION AND URBAN FORM : From residential segregation to segregation in public space

    Författare :Ann Legeby; Lars Marcus; Eva Öresjö; Anna-Johanna Klasander; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; urban segregation; urban form; urban design; housing segregation; residential segregation; public space; co-presence; public life; spatial affordance; Architecture; Arkitektur;

    Sammanfattning : Urban segregation is considered a major social problem in Sweden and several national anti-segregation initiatives have been launched to decrease social and ethnic segregation but so far only with marginal effects (SOU 2005:29). Urban design and town planning are rarely the focus in national anti-segregation initiatives; the architectural issue has mainly been confined to matters concerning housing policies. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Patterns of co-presence : Spatial configuration and social segregation

    Författare :Ann Legeby; Lars Marcus; Laura Vaughan; Daniel Koch; Julienne Hanson; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; co-presence; spatial configuration; public space; urban segregation; urban design; public life; spatial affordance;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis notes that there is a lack of systematic research investigating segregation patterns based on how public space is used and frequented by citizens. In order for understanding of urban segregation to reach beyond residential segregation, the extent to which public space facilitates co-presence between social groups is a key issue. LÄS MER

  3. 3. Exploring Typologies, Densities & Spatial Qualities : The Case of Low-Income Housing in South Africa

    Författare :Ana Mancheno Gren; Dick Urban Vestbro; Jörgen Andreasen; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Urban Form; House Types; Densities; Spatial Qualities; Low-Income Housing; South Africa; Urban Sprawl; Transect; Architecture and architectural conservation and restoration; Arkitektur och bebyggelsevård;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis focuses on problems that have resulted from the increasing pressure facing urban and suburban land use in South Africa, brought on by a number of different factors including the political and historical background of the country, as well as by rapid urbanization. The objective of this thesis is to present the perspectives applied in the analysis of the built environment in selected case studies, in which different theoretical and methodological approaches have been developed to address the research questions.

  4. 4. Rummet och rätten Tingshus som föreställning, byggnad och rum i användning 1734-1970

    Författare :Eva Löfgren; Göteborgs universitet; []

    Sammanfattning : SPACE AND COURT Swedish rural district court-houses 1734-1970; conceived, materialized and used Abstract Although the court of justice is a fundamental institution of our society, the socio-spatial conditions and past of the Swedish district court have rarely been objects of academic research. The aim of this thesis is to examine the design of rural district court-houses from the period of 1734-1970, starting out from the often-assumed causal relation between function and form. LÄS MER

  5. 5. Computational methods for analysis of spatial transcriptomics data : An exploration of the spatial gene expression landscape

    Författare :Alma Andersson; Joakim Lundeberg; Omer Bayraktar; KTH; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; spatial transcriptomics; machine learning; data analysis; RNA-seq; probabilistic; statistical; models; Biotechnology; Bioteknologi;

    Sammanfattning : Transcriptomics techniques, whether in the form of bulk, single cell/nuclei, or spatial methods have fueled a substantial expansion of our knowledge about the biological systems within and around us. In addition, the rate of innovation has accelerated over the last decade, resulting in a multitude of technological advances and new methods for generation of transcriptomics data. LÄS MER
