This contribution argues for the potential of Barr, Khaled and Lessard’s Method for Design Materialization (MDM) as a research through design tool that is specifically suited for new media preservation. Building moreover from the ISEA first and second Summ ...
One significant and simultaneously interesting problem in urban mobility has to do with the study of shared spaces where various categories of users coexist and act together. This paper aims to examine the behavior and preferences of pedestrians and cyclis ...
Regeneration of urban areas from neighborhoods in transition to innovative components. Research at the LAST aims to contribute to transitions towards sustainability in the built environment by integrating environmental, socio-cultural, and economic paramet ...
The essential aspects of drawing cannot be taught theoretically. They can only be learned through practice by creating a certain intimacy with the work. The action of hand drawing initiates a transformative bodily experience generating intensities, frictio ...
The past decades have seen the advent of information theory in various fields, from quantum physics to cosmology.At an intermediary scale between atomic and cosmological scales are biological systems and in particular the cell, as a constitutive element of ...
The rocks forming a volcanic edifice or dome are typically saturated or partially-saturated with water. However, most experiments aimed at better understanding the mechanical behaviour of volcanic rocks have been performed on dry samples, and therefore mos ...
Connected and autonomous vehicles (CAV) have seen a rapid development over the past decade. However, wide diffusion of high level CAVs is still decades to come, and will depend on many technological, policy and public acceptance factors. Merging a traditio ...
The collective behavior of animals has been traditionally studied through observation, quantitative models of behavior, and devices of low intelligence. Nowadays, the advancements in the field of robotics allow for closed-loop experiments that occur in rea ...
Natural language processing has experienced significant improvements with the development of Transformer-based models, which employ self-attention mechanism and pre-training strategies. However, these models still present several obstacles. A notable issue ...
Our research explores opportunities in using unaltered concrete rubbles from demolition for the digital construction of structural walls. Through research by iterative making, we identify relevant upcycling processes and design strategies and explore new t ...
