Abstract:
Two cult structures from Mycenae and from a sanctuary recently discovered at Phylakopi, on the island of Melos, shed a new light on the sacred architecture of the Aegean at the close of the Bronze Age. This paper suggests that the edifices of both these sites should be classified as popular places of worship. This suggestion is based on their location, layout and size as well as on their foreign architectural affinities. The Phylakopi sanctuary, located against the fortification wall of the town, consists of a major temple to which a subsidiary shrine is attached. The pair of adjacent structures located on the lower terrace of the acropolis of Mycenae, are of approximately the same size, presumably possessing the same religious status. The three edifices bear several asymmetrical features, such as indirect entrances and corner platforms that have no parallels elsewhere in the Aegean. These features are diagnostic to a special type of Canaanite temples that prevailed in maritime posts and harbour sites. There are indications, however, that in spite of the foreign architectural affinities, the cult practised in the Mycenae structures and in the major temple of Phylakopi was distinctively Aegean. On the other hand, architectural and contextual data seem to support the assumption that the subsidiary shrine of Phylakopi was reserved for foreign cult, practised by Canaanite traders.

Abstract:
Columbus is the feature-film debut of Korean American director Kogonada, known to cinephiles for his video essays on auteurs. His film stars John Cho (Star Trek, Harold and Kumar) as Jin, a grieving son arriving in Indiana from Seoul to care for his ailing father, a renowned scholar of modernist architecture. The architectural imagery in Columbus serves as something more: it provides narrative punctuation, forming elegantly placed interludes in a moving story of the real people who live in and visit today's Columbus. It's a film about the forgotten heartland ambitions of young dreamers like Casey who face the precarious economic realities of a city beyond the thriving coasts. At a time when ideas of diversity, Middle Americanness, and technology-fueled attention-deficiency sit at the center of national cultural debates, Columbus elegantly glides across all those themes, speaking to yet not confronting them.

Olaniyi, Olayinka Oluseyi. "Development of a facilities management framework for sustainable building practices in Nigeria." Thesis, University of Central Lancashire, 2017. http://clok.uclan.ac.uk/20755/.

Full text
Abstract:
There is need for sustainable building practice in Nigeria as buildings generally show signs of poor design for ventilation, natural lighting, energy management, water management, waste management and other building services. These buildings under perform in relation to the purpose for which they have been built. Building users often complain that the buildings do not provide the required services such as functioning air-conditioning systems, effective water and energy management systems and waste management. Facilities management (FM) professionals in Nigeria have recognised the role that they can play in the practice of sustainable building as a way to proffering a solution to the above mentioned problems. Six objectives were set for the study: to identify the constituents of sustainable building with reference to literature and internationally recognised standards; to evaluate the role of FM in relation to the sustainable building at the design, the construction and operations stages of the building life-cycle; to develop a conceptual framework that shows the facilities manager’s role in sustainable buildings; to evaluate the perception of facilities managers in relation to their competence in achieving sustainable buildings; to investigate the drivers and barriers to the facilities manager’s role in achieving sustainable buildings; and finally to develop and validate a framework for sustainable building practice for FM in Nigeria. The methodology adopted for this research included a combination of extensive literature review, content analysis of relevant literature and documents, 20 interviews and a questionnaire survey of 139 members of IFMA Nigeria in order to identify sustainable building constituents and the facilities manager’s role in sustainable buildings. The findings of the research helped in developing a framework for the achievement of sustainable buildings through the facilities manager’s role at the design, construction and operations stages of the building’s life-cycle.

Full text
Abstract:
Murals have been the formal visual interpretation of the cultural, social and political life of all ages. Throughout they have been consistently combined with their architectural setting, for example, in ancient Egyptian tombs, in Renaissance churches and on the external walls of buildings in Mexico in the twentieth century. This is a central feature of mural painting. However many contemporary murals do not integrate with their architectural settings, in other words, do not fulfil the site-specificity of the architectural spaces for which they were made. This means that the most important aspect that distinguishes murals from other types of painting is absent. I studied and analysed a number of murals produced in the Italian Renaissance, Baroque and Rococo as this particular period is considered to be not only one of the most significant in the history of art but also a period in which painting and architecture were very closely allied as practices. In particular the radical developments in painting of pictorial space took place along side the developments in architecture. I argue that Renaissance murals could be described, using the terminology of contemporary art, as site-specific art. By identifying the relationship between pictorial space, architectural space and compositional structure I was able to test, through my own practice, the importance of these relationships in understanding the site-specificity of the compositional structure of murals. To address the issue of sitespecificity in murals, I investigated and developed a set of compositional structures through my mural practice that could be applied in the design, execution, and teaching of contemporary mural design. I have developed the notion of a deconstructive method of mural design in which the illusory space of the mural derives its compositional structure from the architectural space in which it sited. I have applied it, tested it and refined it through the execution of a number of hypothetical and live mural commissions. I believe that the approach to the study and practice of mural design I have developed from the perspective of a practice lead researcher contributes to the furtherance of mural design as both a profession and field of study. In particular the identification of compositional structures in mural design and the proposal of a deconstructive method contributes to our understanding of what a mural is as well as current notions of site-specificity in contemporary art.

Abstract:
Cities are not merely inanimate objects. They are complex living environments, built over time by cultures and civilisations. This thesis argues that cities have a central place in human history and civilisation because they are imbued with meaning and meaningful activity. Thus, cities are inherently political spaces, and it may be reasonably expected that they will be important sites of social transformation in the postmodern era. In order to understand the relationship between urban space and political consciousness, this thesis traces several different interpretive paths within the marxist tradition. First, we examine the work of Henri Lefebvre, who argues for an understanding of urban space as socially produced. Next, the thesis looks at the contributions of Guy Debord, particularly at his understanding of the relation between time and the city. Both writers struggle to understand the urban in the context of the shift to what we now call postmodernity. Despite their many strengths, Debord and Lefebvre ultimately fail to theorise a social subject capable of resisting capitalist domination of the city. As a result, the thesis turns to a consideration of the work of Antonio Negri. Negri’s analysis of the fate of contemporary subjectivity has reinvigorated marxist critique with a return to the question of political change. His figure of the multitude takes leave of traditional marxism in challenging and productive ways, and helps us better understand the nature of subjectivity and resistance in a world of immaterial labour and virtuality. Nevertheless, this thesis argues that there is still work to be done before Negri’s work can be mapped out onto the contemporary metropolis.

Abstract:
Effective collaboration in a team is a crucial skill. When people interact together to perform physical tasks, they rely on gestures to convey instructions. This thesis explores gestures as means to assess physical collaborative task understanding. This research proposes a framework to represent, compare, and assess gestures’ morphology, semantics, and pragmatics, as opposed to traditional approaches that rely mostly on the gestures’ physical appearance. By leveraging this framework, functionally equivalent gestures can be identified and compared. In addition, a metric to assess the quality of assimilation of physical instructions is computed from gesture matchings, which acts as a proxy metric for task understanding based on gestural analysis. The correlations between this proposed metric and three other task understanding proxy metrics were obtained. Our framework was evaluated through three user studies in which participants completed shared tasks remotely: block assembly, origami, and ultrasound training. The results indicate that the proposed metric acts as a good estimator for task understanding. Moreover, this metric provides task understanding insights in scenarios where other proxy metrics show inconsistencies. Thereby, the approach presented in this research acts as a first step towards assessing task understanding in physical collaborative scenarios through the analysis of gestures.

Abstract:

Articular cartilage functions successfully as a compression load-bearing tissue by virtue of the functional interplay between a 3-dimensional structure of collagen fibrils and the entrapped water-swollen proteoglycan molecules. Crucial to this entrapment process is a mechanism or set of mechanisms that maintain the collagen fibrils in a finely divided interconnected configuration that immobilises the macro-molecular proteoglycan complexes. Any loss of interconnectivity in the collagen network that might reduce the constraints on the swelling tendency of the proteoglycan domains will lead to a lower matrix stiffness. There are some structural similarities between this less stiff or abnormally softened cartilage and the degenerative osteoarthritic matrix, although ultrastructural studies to date are somewhat limited. The primary objective of the research reported in this thesis was to investigate the fibrillar architecture in the general matrix of both the normal and abnormally softened cartilage matrices. The fibrillar architectures of the normal and abnormally softened general matrices were compared using Nomarski light microscopy (LM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) with combined stereoscopic reconstruction, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). As reported earlier by Broom (1984b), a pseudo-random network developed from an overall radial arrangement of collagen fibrils is the most fundamental ultrastructural characteristic of the normal general matrix. By contrast, this present investigation has shown that the most distinctive feature of the softened matrix is the presence of parallel and relatively unentwined fibrils, strongly aligned in the radial direction. A structural model illustrating the transformation from the normal to the softened matrix is proposed based on the important property of lateral interconnectivity in the fibrils which involves both entwinement and non-entwinement based interactions. The distribution of proteoglycans in the normal and the softened matrix was compared. The distribution of Type II collagen was investigated using immunohistochemical staining combined with confocal imaging. It is concluded that the Type II fibrils do persist in the altered matrix thus adding further experimental support for the proposed transformation model. The swelling behaviour of the general matrix of both normal and abnormally softened articular cartilage was compared by subjecting tissue specimens under different modes of constraint to a high swelling bathing solution of distilled water and comparing structural changes imaged at the macroscopic, microscopic and ultramicroscopic levels of resolution. Near-zero swelling was observed in the isolated normal general matrix with minimal structural change. By contrast, the similarly isolated softened general matrix exhibited large-scale swelling in both the transverse and radial directions. This difference in dimensional stability was attributed to fundamentally different levels of fibril interconnectivity between the two matrices. The structural transformation model was further developed to accommodate fibrillar rearrangements associated with the large-scale swelling in the radial and transverse directions in the softened general matrix.

Abstract:
Neuromorphic computing has gained tremendous interest because of its ability to overcome the limitations of traditional signal processing algorithms in data intensive applications such as image recognition, video analytics, or language translation. The new computing paradigm is built with the goal of achieving high energy efficiency, comparable to biological systems.
To achieve such energy efficiency, there is a need to explore new neuro-mimetic devices, circuits, and architecture, along with new learning algorithms. To that effect, we propose two main approaches:

First, we explore an energy-efficient hardware implementation of a bio-plausible Spiking Neural Network (SNN). The key highlights of our proposed system for SNNs are 1) addressing connectivity issues arising from Network On Chip (NOC)-based SNNs, and 2) proposing stochastic CMOS binary SNNs using biased random number generator (BRNG). On-chip Power Line Communication (PLC) is proposed to address the connectivity issues in NOC-based SNNs. PLC can use the on-chip power lines augmented with low-overhead receiver and transmitter to communicate data between neurons that are spatially far apart. We also propose a CMOS 'stochastic-bit' with on-chip stochastic Spike Timing Dependent Plasticity (sSTDP) based learning for memory-compressed binary SNNs. A chip was fabricated in 90 nm CMOS process to demonstrate memory-efficient reconfigurable on-chip learning using sSTDP training.

Second, we explored coupled oscillatory systems for distance computation and convolution operation. Recent research on nano-oscillators has shown the possibility of using coupled oscillator networks as a core computing primitive for analog/non-Boolean computations. Spin-torque oscillator (STO) can be an attractive candidate for such oscillators because it is CMOS compatible, highly integratable, scalable, and frequency/phase tunable. Based on these promising features, we propose a new coupled-oscillator based architecture for hybrid spintronic/CMOS hardware that computes multi-dimensional norm. The hybrid system composed of an array of four injection-locked STOs and a CMOS detector is experimentally demonstrated. Energy and scaling analysis shows that the proposed STO-based coupled oscillatory system has higher energy efficiency compared to the CMOS-based system, and an order of magnitude faster computation speed in distance computation for high dimensional input vectors.

Abstract:

Additive Manufacturing (AM) allows for the creation of elements with novel forms and functions. Utilizing AM in development of components of civil infrastructure allows for achieving more advanced, innovative, and unique performance characteristics. The research presented in this dissertation is focused on development of a better understanding of the fabrication challenges and opportunities in AM of cement-based materials. Specifically, challenges related to printability and opportunities offered by 3D-printing technology, including ability to fabricate intricate structures and generate unique and enhanced mechanical responses have been explored. Three aspects related to 3D-printing of cement-based materials were investigated. These aspects include: fresh stability of 3D-printed elements in relation to materials rheological properties, microstructural characteristics of the interfaces induced during the 3D-printing process, and the mechanical response of 3D-printed elements with bio-inspired design of the materials’ architecture. This research aims to contribute to development of new pathways to obtain stability in freshly 3D-printed elements by determining the rheological properties of material that control the ability to fabricate elements in a layer-by-layer manner, followed by the understanding of the microstructural features of the 3D-printed hardened cement paste elements including the interfaces and the pore network. This research also introduces a new approach to enhance the mechanical response of the 3D-printed elements by controlling the spatial arrangement of individual filaments (i.e., materials’ architecture) and by harnessing the weak interfaces that are induced by the 3D-printing process.

(10292552), Omar Nabeel Nezamuddin. "Proposal of wireless charging method and architecture to increase range in electric vehicles." Thesis, 2021.

Find full text
Abstract:
Electric vehicles (EVs) face a major issue before becoming the norm of society, that is, their lack of range when it comes to long trips. Fast charging stations are a good step forward to help make it simpler for EVs, but it is still not as convenient when compared to vehicles with an internal combustion engine (ICE). Plenty of infrastructure changes have been proposed in the literature attempting to tackle this issue, but they typically tend to be either an expensive solution or a difficult practical implementation.
This dissertation presents two solutions to help increase the range of EVs: a novel wireless charging method and a multi-motor architecture for EVs. The first proposed solution involves the ability for EVs to charge while en route from another vehicle, which will be referred to from here on as vehicle-to-vehicle recharging (VVR). The aim of this system is to bring an innovative way for EVs to charge their battery without getting off route on a highway. The electric vehicle can request such a service from a designated charger vehicle on demand and receive electric power wirelessly while en route. The vehicles that provide energy (charger vehicles) through wireless power transfer (WPT) only need to be semi-autonomous in order to ``engage'' or ``disengage'' during a trip. Also, a novel method for wireless power transfer will be presented, where the emitter (TX) or receiver (RX) pads can change angles to improve the efficiency of power transmission. This type of WPT system would be suitable for the VVR system presented in this dissertation, along with other applications.
The second solution presented here will be an architecture for EVs with three or more different electric motors to help prolong the state of charge (SOC) of the battery. The key here is to use motors with different high efficiency regions. The proposed control algorithm optimizes the use of the motors on-board to keep them running in their most efficient regions. With this architecture, the powertrain would see a combined efficiency map that incorporates the best operating points of the motors. Therefore, the proposed architecture will allow the EV to operate with a higher range for a given battery capacity.
The state-of-the-art is divided into four subsections relevant to the proposed solutions and where most of the innovations to reduce the burden of charging EVs can be found: (1) infrastructure changes, (2) device level innovations, (3) autonomous vehicles, and (4) electric vehicle architectures. The infrastructure changes highlight some of the proposed systems that aim to help EVs become a convenient solution to the public. Device level innovations covers some of the literature on technology that addresses EVs in terms of WPT. The autonomous vehicle subsection covers the importance of such technology in terms of safety and reliability, that could be implemented on the VVR system. Finally, the EV architectures covers the current typologies used in EVs. Furthermore, modeling, analysis, and simulation is presented to validate the feasibility of the proposed VVR system, the WPT system, and the multi-motor architecture for EVs.

Abstract:
Many modern workloads such as multimedia, recognition, mining, search, vision, etc. possess the characteristic of intrinsic application resilience: The ability to produce acceptable-quality outputs despite their underlying computations being performed in an approximate manner. Approximate computing has emerged as a paradigm that exploits intrinsic application resilience to design systems that produce outputs of acceptable quality with significant performance/energy improvement. The research community has proposed a range of approximate computing techniques spanning across circuits, architecture, and software over the last decade. Nevertheless, approximate computing is yet to be incorporated into mainstream HW/SW design processes largely due to the deviation from the conventional design flow and the lack of runtime approximation controllability by the user.

The primary objective of this thesis is to provide approximate computing techniques across different layers of abstraction that possess the two following characteristics: (i) They can be applied with minimal change to the conventional design flow, and (ii) the approximation is controllable at runtime by the user with minimal overhead. To this end, this thesis proposes three novel approximate computing techniques: Clock overgating which targets HW design at the Register Transfer Level (RTL), value similarity extensions which enhance general-purpose processors with a set of microarchitectural and ISA extensions, and data subsetting which targets SW executing for commodity platforms.

The thesis first explores clock overgating, which extends the concept of clock gating: A conventional low-power technique that turns off the clock to a Flip-Flop (FF) when the value remains unchanged. In contrast to traditional clock gating, in clock overgating the clock signals to selected FFs in the circuit are gated even when the circuit functionality is sensitive to their state. This saves additional power in the clock tree, the gated FFs and in their downstream logic, while a quality loss occurs if the erroneous FF states propagate to the circuit outputs. This thesis develops a systematic methodology to identify an energy-efficient clock overgating configuration for any given circuit and quality constraint. Towards this end, three key strategies for efficiently pruning the large space of possible overgating configurations are proposed: Significance-based overgating, grouping FFs into overgating islands, and utilizing internal signals of the circuit as triggers for overgating. Across a suite of 6 machine learning accelerators, energy benefits of 1.36X on average are achieved at the cost of a very small (<0.5%) loss in classification accuracy.

The thesis also explores value similarity extensions, a set of lightweight micro-architectural and ISA extensions for general-purpose processors that provide performance improvements for computations on data structures with value similarity. The key idea is that programs often contain repeated instructions that are performed on very similar inputs (e.g., neighboring pixels within a homogeneous region of an image). In such cases, it may be possible to skip an instruction that operates on data similar to a previously executed instruction, and approximate the skipped instruction's result with the saved result of the previous one. The thesis provides three key strategies for realizing this approach: Identifying potentially skippable instructions from user annotations in SW, obtaining similarity information for future load values from the data cache line currently being accessed, and a mechanism for saving & reusing results of potentially skippable instructions. As a further optimization, the thesis proposes to replace multiple loop iterations that produce similar results with a specialized instruction sequence. The proposed extensions are modeled on the gem5 architectural simulator, achieving speedup of 1.81X on average across 6 machine-learning benchmarks running on a microcontroller-class in-order processor.

Finally, the thesis explores a data-centric approach to approximate computing called data subsetting that shifts the focus of approximation from computations to data. The key idea is to restrict the application's data accesses to a subset of its elements so that the overall memory footprint becomes smaller. Constraining the accesses to lie within a smaller memory footprint renders the memory accesses more cache-friendly, thereby improving performance. This thesis presents a C++ data structure template called SubsettableTensor, which embodies mechanisms to define an accessible subset of data and redirect accesses away from non-subset elements, for realizing data subsetting in SW. The proposed concept is evaluated on parallel SW implementations of 7 machine learning applications on a 48-core AMD Opteron server. Experimental results indicate that 1.33X-4.44X performance improvement can be achieved within a <0.5% loss in classification accuracy.

In summary, the proposed approximation techniques have shown significant efficiency improvements for various machine learning applications in circuits, architecture and SW, underscoring their promise as designer-friendly approaches to approximate computing.

Abstract:

The discovery and utilization of novel starches with unique superb properties are highly demanded for modern industrial uses. Small-granule starch (SGS) is a category of unconventional starches with the granular size smaller than 10 μm. The potential use of SGS includes many conventional and novel high-value applications, such as texturizing, fat replacement, encapsulation, controlled delivery and nano-engineering. In the present work, we focused on three SGS isolated from amaranth (Amaranth cruentus), cow cockle (Saponaria vaccaria) and sweet corn (sugary-1 maize mutant). The basic structural and unique physical properties of SGS were characterized and compared to common large-granule food starches. It was found that (1) the highly branched amylopectin contributed to low crystallinity and pasting viscosities of sweet corn starch, (2) cow cockle starch exhibited high shear-resistance and low retrogradation in prolonged storage, and (3) the amylopectin for amaranth starch was less branched with small clusters, which was associated with the high crystallinity, medium shear-resistance and low pasting viscosity of amaranth starch. Despite the small size of starch granules, SGS in both native and swelling states showed the capacity of retaining small molecules. Compared to large-granule starch, native SGS are more difficult for small molecules to reach an equilibrium permeation. This work provides insights to the fine structure and physicochemical behaviors of selected high-potent SGS, which is believed to support the industrial production and application of SGS in the future.

The characteristics of local polymeric structure dominate many critical properties of glucan particles, such as starch retrogradation and the loading and stabilizing of active substance. Molecular rotor (MR), a fluorescent probe, was proposed to fulfill the simple, high-sensitive, and quantitative-based characterization of local glucan architecture (LGA). In the present work, two innovative studies relevant to this novel method were conducted: (1) MR was able to characterize glucans based on its unique fluorescent response to characteristic LGA, (2) MR was able to sensitively probe and visually demonstrate the transition of LGA induced by starch retrogradation. This novel MR-based approach is expected to advance carbohydrate-related researches in the future.

Abstract:
AbstractThe research field of AI is concerned with devising theories, methods, and workflows for producing software artifacts which behave as intelligent subjects. Evidently, intelligence, as the property of an agent, is not of necessity inherited from the methods used to construct it: that a car has been assembled by robots does not make it a robot. Unfortunately, even this obvious distinction can sometimes be erased in some prominent published work. To wit: the statement, “an agent that performs sufficiently well on a sufficiently wide range of tasks is classified as intelligent” was recently published by DeepMind [273] to give context to a paper claiming to have developed “the first deep RL agent that outperforms the standard human benchmark on all 57 Atari games” [14]. This invites the inference that the range of the tasks (57 games) that have been achieved warrants calling the advertised agent ‘intelligent’. However, careful reading of the paper reveals that the authors have in fact developed 57 different agents. Granted, this was achieved using the same development method and system architecture, but 57 agents were nonetheless trained, rather than the claimed single agent. Here is a prime example of distilled confusion: a property (applicability to 57 tasks) of one construction method (instantiating the Agent57 system architecture) has just been ‘magically’ transferred to some 57 artifacts produced by the method.

Abstract:
AbstractVisual sensor data of manual assembly operations offers rich information that can be extracted in order to analyze and digitalize the assembly. The worker’s interaction with tools and objects, as well as the spatial–temporal nature of assembly operations, makes the recognition and classification of assembly operations a complex task. Therefore, classical methods of computer vision do not provide a sufficient solution. This paper presents a recurrent neural network for the classification of manual assembly operations using visual sensor data and addresses the question as to what extent such a solution is feasible in terms of robustness and reliability. Since complex assembly operations are a combination of basic movements, four main assembly operations of the Methods Time-Measurement base operations are classified using a machine learning approach. A dataset of these four assembly operations, reach, grasp, move and release, containing RGB-, infrared-, and depth-data is used. A Convolutional Neural Network—Long Short Term Memory architecture is investigated regarding its applicability due to the spatial–temporal nature of the data.

Abstract:
Among the ruins of ancient Rome Bramante found the pieces he needed to assemble a much more rigorous system of forms than the one known to him in Milan. His repertoire changed, the solutions typical of the Lombard period were abandoned. This change of style is perhaps the most striking aspect of Bramante's artistic production and has not failed to attract the attention of historians of architecture. To understand his work it is necessary to start from right here, from this glaring fact-and a fairly unusual one with respect to the kind of behavior that, after centuries of romantic idolizing of the self, we tend to expect from an artist. And yet these choices were fully conscious, as is evident from an unequivocal passage in a letter from Guglielmo della Porta to Bartolomeo Ammannati (circa 1560): »Bramante asserted that anyone who came to Rome to practise as an architect had to strip himself, as a snake sheds its skin, of everything he had learned elsewhere, and he proved this himself with his own example, saying that before he saw this city he used to think himself an excellent painter and architect, but that after practising for many years he became aware of his error, and this was the reason that, after having drawn a great number of the buildings of ancient Rome, of Tivoli, of Praeneste, and many other places, studying, noting and learning something new every day, he opened the way to the good and regulated architecture of antiquity.« It is precisely the shedding of skin that took place in the move from Milan to Rome which we need to take as the starting point in our observation of Bramante's work. Just what changed? And what did not change?

Abstract:
This chapter shows how skaters creatively interpret architectural forms to perform tricks. It looks at the basic criteria for skateboarding spaces and the various elements of defensive architecture designed to prevent skateboarding. As a result of the criminalization of skateboarding, skaters have also begun to look elsewhere for places to skate. This includes seeking out new cities in China, the United Arab Emirates, and Europe, but also constructing what skaters call DIY spots, where they actively make, remake, and repair skateboarding places.

Abstract:
Delamination between thin films is classified into two types: opening mode and sliding mode. Corresponding to each mode, there is the interface strength between thin films. This paper aims to evaluate interface strength between the sub-micron thin films for opening mode and sliding mode, respectively. We already developed the evaluation method of interface fracture toughness for opening mode on the basis of fracture mechanics concept elsewhere. Moreover, the evaluation method of sliding mode is proposed and the interface strength between thin films for an advanced LSI is evaluated as the fracture toughness by using both methods. In both modes, the stress singularity appears in the vicinity of the edge of interface and governs the delamination. The criterion of crack initiation for each mode is evaluated as the interface toughness. The fracture toughness at the edge of interface in sliding mode is lower than that in opening mode.

Abstract:
A rigorous, in-depth analysis is a common approach in complex system design. Elsewhere, however, more iterative and agile processes and open innovation have become commonplace. We experiment with an agile hackathon-type design sprint for solving industry-provided, complex system engineering problems. In a typical complex system project, significant domain expertise is expected and only one in-depth analysis is typically conducted to make recommendations for a given problem. The question we explore is whether a quick sprint with non-domain experts can result in useful insights for further analysis. We tasked seven teams in parallel to conduct analysis and suggest recommendations for a given company case in only a few hours. The industry challenge was to propose system changes that would mitigate risks due to the long lifecycle of the system and long time from order to delivery. The teams were given two a priori decomposed design structure matrices, representing the product architecture at two levels of granularity, as well as access to several analysis tools. The design sprint resulted in seven sets of recommendations, each with unique insights. The results and their variety highlighted the type of recommendations any given analysis direction would give if pursued further. It provided insights about the many different ways to potentially address the given challenge. As expected, it also highlighted the difficulty of analysis due to lack of detailed system knowledge. Nevertheless, the sprint was considered successful and meaningful as well as an effective means to augment traditional complex system analysis.

Abstract:
Abstract This paper proposed a design support method based on structuralization and analysis of various design candidates of product architecture design. The product architecture is a basic scheme that assigns the function of the product to physical components. In the conventional modular design method, a concise model, i.e., a graph or a matrix, is used to express the interactions of the system’s components and aims to support the designer grasping the system behavior. The Design Structure Matrix (DSM) is a representative model of system architecture and enables quantitative evaluation of design candidates. While various design candidates are generated through mathematical operations, it is difficult to understand their relationships from simple comparisons because of discrete behavior and the size of the problem. It must be a critical issue at the stage of selecting and interpreting the design candidates. In the proposed method, the design candidates are classified and structuralized as a dendrogram by the hierarchical clustering method. The comparison of clusters of each branch of dendrogram clarifies the system leverage points. The information of the system is summarized into the hierarchical tree-shaped graph that corresponds to the dendrogram. The designer can explore the design candidates with such a graph-based based interpretation of underlying structures effectively.

Abstract:
This study offers insight into the processes of expert designers at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) and how they make use of heuristics in the design process. A methodology for the extraction, classification, and characterization of heuristics is presented. Ten expert participants were interviewed to identify design heuristics used during early stage space mission design at JPL. In total, 101 heuristics were obtained, classified, and characterized. Through the use of postinterview surveys, participants characterized heuristics based on attributes including source/origin, applicability based on concept maturity, frequency of use, reliability, and tendency to evolve. These findings are presented, and statistically analyzed to show correlations between the participant perceptions of frequency of use, reliability, and evolution of a heuristic. Survey results and analysis aim to identify valid attributes for assessing the applicability and value of multiple heuristics for design practice in early space mission formulation.

Abstract:
Restoration and consolidation of the top portion of castel Penede in Nago (Trento) on Lake Garda. A project of knowledgeCastel Penede is located on a rocky spur, the farthest north-west extension of Monte Baldo, protruding to close up the pass from Upper Garda to Adige Valley, protecting the Torbole harbour. The structure of the fortified complex spans over a period of almost five centuries, from the twelfth to the sixteenth century, in an area featuring an at least bi-millennial settlement sequence. The path of knowledge started in 2008 with the historic and stratigraphic analysis. The carrying out of the executive project will turn out to be of a cultural interest, as the removal of the collapsed material will be effected, found in the most ancient rooms which will be then revamped and restored. These works will bring to light some structures (walls, architectonic elements, flooring plans, plasters, vaults and staircases...) which shall be studied, filed and reported as stratigraphic units to update the analysis of the elevations previously carried out. The knowledge methodology adopted to get comprehension of the castle according to scientific methods will be then carried on. The investigations on the architectures have highlighted the relevance of the stratigraphic analysis meant not only as a fundamental aspect of the path of knowledge of a historical building, but also as a basic step to preserve the cultural heritage piece. This will safeguard the readability of the constructed item and of its morphological-stratigraphic connections to the extent of making the traces of the contemporary works on the built item itself both evident and acknowledgeable during the treatment of the walls’ surface joints. These operations carried out by skilled workers can be nearly classified as a specialised service which is often not adequately matched in the work practice. It is essential to point out the role of knowledge: knowledge of the item means you know how to restore it.

Abstract:
Over the past couple of decades, building typology in rural India has seen an unprecedented shift away from vernacular material and construction techniques. The substitute - replicable, mass-produced, concrete structures fail to respond to the climatic and cultural context. In addition to being carbon intensive, inadequate knowledge about form and function of new construction methods and materials have led to poor quality construction that has a shorter life span. Compared to the existing vernacular buildings, such concrete structures are found to be uninhabitable by many end users.Studies done in the past on vernacular architecture of India focus on climate responsive design and execution, and traditional materials. However, there is insufficient research investigating the factors affecting the decline of vernacular practices.This paper assesses the reasons behind change in rural fabric of Madhya Pradesh, India, through primary focussed group discussions, key informant interviews &amp; field observations. The study identifies diverse factors, ranging from individual preferences to policies and laws governing access to resources. It also uncovers unexpected factors such as changing food habits leading to lack of traditional construction materials. These wide-ranging factors are classified under social, technical, financial, and legal categories. The study develops a framework to analyse patterns emerging across different agro-climatic and geographic regions. Based on the findings, the paper also recommends potential interventions for reviving sustainable vernacular architecture in the region.

In an uncontrolled network, attacks are classified in smaller categories, taking into account their features and using the self- organized map. To manage clusters, a neural network based on back-propagation method used. We use PyBrain as the main framework for designing, developing and learning perceptron data. This framework has a sufficient number of solutions and algorithms for training, designing and testing various types of neural networks. Software architecture is presented using a procedural-object approach. Because there is no need to save intermediate result of the program (after learning entire perceptron is stored in the file), all the progress of learning is stored in the normal files on hard disk.
