Natural light is a dynamic and ephemeral tool for expressing the quality of architecturalspace. As a compliment to more traditional avenues of daylighting research that assess performance in terms of quantitative illuminance goals and glare-based discomfor ...
Shannon's discovery of digital communication has shaped the architecture of virtually all communication systems in use today. The digital communication paradigm is built around the notion of bits and uses careful coding to deliver bits reliably end-to-end. ...
This paper presents the results of a method to produce autonomous animation of virtual humans. In particular, the proposed methodology is focused on the autonomous synthesis of nonvoluntary gestures such as reflexes and subtle movements which provide a not ...
Functionalism serves as the guiding concept of this piece of work, on the example of which shall be traced the changes that took place in modern architecture between 1930 and 1950. This choice seems appropriate since Functionalism is a particularly relevan ...
Within the "industrial architecture", the thesis is – in a general sense – the story of a travel in the space (from the Liguria sea – but not only – to the Valle dlAosta mountains), and in the time (the XXth century). The structure of the narration preview ...
Through a case study, this research aims at contributing to the historic understanding of the international architecture after the Second World War. It is based on the monographic analysis of the projects realised by the Geneva agency Addor & Julliard in L ...
Contemporary society is based on a perpetual evolution of personal opinions and likings. The transmission of knowledge is questioned, but if the education and teaching about a critical vision is considered an essential instrument, so the schools and the ma ...
Grande infrastructure, l'image visuelle d'une usine d'incinération n'est pas négligeable. Pourtant, l'attention a toujours été portée sur les machines, reléguant l'architecture à une signification mineure, celle d'une enveloppe n'ayant pour but que de prot ...
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) comprise a fast developing research area with a vast spectrum of applications. A WSN design is influenced by many factors such as transmission errors, network topology and power consumption. Consequently, developing a WSN app ...
This paper investigates the neural mechanisms of visuo-motor imitation in humans through convergent evidence from neuroscience. In particular, we consider a deficit in imitation following callosal brain lesion, based on the rational that looking at how imi ...
