Abstract:
Students in grades four through twelve from fourteen schools learned to build their own immersive virtual environments (VEs). This required them to decide on the theme of their VE, to determine what objects to place in it and what behaviors these objects would exhibit, to model their objects using CAD software, to specify the form and function of the VE for professional programmers to use as they assembled the VE, and to perform assigned tasks when they visited the VE. Although the level and nature of student activity varied from school to school, the students were generally very successful. The VEs they constructed revealed a great deal about how they constructed an understanding of the content their VE represented. Data from a questionnaire showed that they enjoyed building and visiting their VE, and that their enjoyment, ability to work in the VE, success, and their sense of presence were all interrelated. Data from a small subset of students showed that building a VE improved low-ability students' (but not high-ability students') understanding of the VE's content. These findings were interpreted within a framework built from constructivist theories of learning and understanding.

Abstract:
At the moment urban agglomeration sees how cities grow and expand within a shorter period by overlooking the existence of natural eco-system. Natural and built components of the urban environment are the main focal point for sustainable development strategies of a city. Unfortunately, economic pressure being the major driving force of our cities development always cater for high dry-land considering wet areas like a wetland, canals, khals, lowlands, water reservoir etc. as backward and primitive. Wetland and water-related resources all over the world are given less priority which is acute in urban areas and Bangladesh is not an exception. Water and water-related resources are not maintained properly resulting continuous deterioration of wetlands and water bodies. Considering Ananya R/A, Chittagong, a developing residential area on wetland, as study site this paper aims at acknowledging some ideologies of development in a wetland which will contribute to enriching the natural environment of the area by introducing chemistry of land-water-ecology.

The contribution of the proposed dissertation is the application of affective intelligence in human-developed spaces where people live, work, and recreate daily, also known as built environments. Built environments have been known to influence and impact individual affective responses. The implications of built environments on human well-being and mental health necessitate the need to develop new metrics to measure and detect how humans respond subjectively in built environments. Detection of arousal in built environments given biometric data and environmental characteristics via a machine learning-centric approach provides a novel and new capability to measure human responses to built environments. Work was also conducted on experimental design methodologies for multiple sensor fusion and detection of affect in built environments. These contributions include exploring new methodologies in applying supervised machine learning algorithms, such as logistic regression, random forests, and artificial neural networks, in the detection of arousal in built environments. Results have shown a machine learning approach can not only be used to detect arousal in built environments but also for the construction of novel explanatory models of the data.

Abstract:
This master’s thesis expands the field of research in interactive playgrounds by examining the role of the built environment that is augmented with digital technology for richer interaction possibilities in such playgrounds. Based on a literature study, this thesis distinguishes interactive play environments from interactive playgrounds, since these often do not reflect the impact of the environment on play very well. The research question being raised is then as follows: “How do children use the digitally augmented built environment in their play?” The thesis describes the process of designing and prototyping an interactive play environment that features communication and a tube to throw objects through as play concepts. Six different prototypes shape the interactive environment in close interplay with landscape and existing built environment. The prototyped environment is then evaluated in a 4-day study at a Swedish school with approximately 240 children during their recess times. This study uses observation as the predominant data gathering method. The gathered data are analyzed based on content analysis. As an answer to the research question, this thesis describes the play that happens in an interactive play environment and draws conclusions on the influence of such an environment on play. The results of the study indicate, that the digitally augmented built environment has an impact on play in stimulating certain new play patterns. It shows its potential mainly as a mediator between the children and the environment, thus stimulating children to explore their environment through play and discover dormant values of the environment. Although we found that the digitally augmented built environment influences play, this study can not confirm that the digital components embedded in the built environment actually improve the play. However, the increasing presence of digital technology in society in general makes it inevitable to think about how this presence should be reflected in children’s playgrounds in the future and this work can give some directions for that.

Abstract:
The European Union has adopted a plan to decrease 20 % of total energy consumption through improved energy efficiency by 2020. One way of achieving this challenging goal may be to use efficient water-based heating systems supplied by heat pumps or othersustainable systems. The goal of this research was to analyze and improve the thermalperformance of water-based baseboard heaters at low-temperature water supply. Both numerical (CFD) and analytical simulations were used to investigate the heat efficiency of the system. An additional objective of this work was to ensure that the indoor thermal comfort was satisfied in spaces served by such a low-temperature heating system. Analyses showed that it was fully possible to cover both transmission and ventilation heatl osses using baseboard heaters supplied by 45 °C water flow. The conventional baseboards, however, showed problems in suppressing the cold air down-flow created by 2.0 m high glazing and an outdoor temperature of – 12 °C. The draught discomfort at ankle level was slightly above the upper limit recommended by international and national standards. On the other hand, thermal baseboards with integrated ventilation air supply showed better ability to neutralize cold downdraught at the same height and conditions. Calculations also showed that the heat output from the integrated system with one ventilation inlet was approximately twiceas high as that of the conventional one. The general conclusion from this work was that low-temperature baseboards, especially with integrated ventilation air supply, are an efficient heating system and able to be combined with devices that utilize the low-quality sustainable energy sources such as heat pumps.

Abstract:
Before the recent advances in sensing, actuation, computing and communication technologies, the integration between the digital and the physical environment was limited. Humans linked those two worlds by collecting data about the physical environment before feeding it into the digital environment, and by changing the state of the physical environment based on the state of the digital environment. The incorporation of computing, communication, sensing, and actuation technologies into everyday physical objects has empowered the vision of the Internet of Things (IoT). Things can autonomously collect data about the physical environment, exchange information with other things, and take actions on behalf of humans. Application domains that can benefit from IoT include smart buildings, smart cities, smart water, smart agriculture, smart animal farming, smart metering, security and emergencies, retail, logistics, industrial control, and health care. For decades, building automation, intelligent buildings, and more recently smart buildings have received a considerable attention in both academia and industry. We use the term smart built environments (SBE) to describe smart, intelligent, physical, built, architectural spaces ranging from a single room to a whole city. Legacy SBEs were often closed systems operating their own standards and custom protocols. SBEs evolved to Internet-connected systems leveraging the Internet technologies and services (e.g., cloud services) to unleash new capabilities. IoT-enabled SBEs, as one of the various applications of the IoT, can change the way we experience our homes and workplaces significantly and make interacting with technology almost inevitable. This can provide several benefits to modern society and help to make our life easier. Meanwhile, security, privacy, and safety concerns should be addressed appropriately. Unlike traditional computing devices, things usually have no or limited input/output (I/O) capabilities. Leveraging the ubiquity of general-purpose computing devices (e.g., smartphones), thing vendors usually provide interfaces for their products in the form of mobile apps or web-based portals. Interacting with different things using different mobile apps or web-based portals does not scale well. Requiring the user to switch between tens or hundreds of mobile apps and web-based portals to interact with different things in different smart spaces may not be feasible. Moreover, it can be tricky for non-domestic users (e.g., visitors) of a given SBE to figure out, without guidance, what mobile apps or web-based portals they need to use to interact with the surrounding. While there has been a considerable research effort to address a variety of challenges associated with the thing-to-thing interaction, human-to-thing interaction related research is limited. Many of the proposed approaches and industry-adopted techniques rely on more traditional, well understood and widely used Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) methods and techniques to support interaction between humans and things. Such techniques have mostly originated in a world of desktop computers that have a screen, mouse, and keyboard. However, SBEs introduce a radically different interaction context where there are no centralized, easily identifiable input and output devices. A desktop computer of the past is being replaced with the whole SBE. Depending on the task at hand and personal preferences, a user may prefer to use one interaction modality over another. For instance, turning lights on/off using an app may be more cumbersome or time-consuming compared to using a simple physical switch. This research focuses on leveraging the recent advances in IoT and related technologies to support user interactions with SBEs. We explore how to support flexible and adaptive multimodal interfaces and interactions while providing a consistent user experience in an SBE based on the current context and the available user interface and interaction capabilities.

Abstract:
This thesis explores the relationship between environmental affect and mental health using restorative theory as an organising framework. Environmental affect can be described as how the physical environment (home, park etc) and social context (being with a friend) influence emotion and thereby various activities and outcomes. Three types of psychological experiences are explored, theoretically grouped under the rubric “restorative”: discrete (short-term) psychological restoration, instoration (longer term strengthening of internal resources) and person-environment fit conceptualised as niche environments supportive of 1) personal goals and 2) mood regulation. Mixed research methods (qualitative and quantitative) were used to elicit the affective dimensions of different settings (natural vs. built-external vs. built-internal) across several different groups within the population. A key aim was to explore whether restorative experiences would differ between settings in adults and young people with and without mental health problems. Five studies are presented, each exploring one or more aspect of the three part restorative framework outlined above, with one additional study focusing on social restoration. Two aspects of psychological restoration are examined: firstly, mood and secondly, cognitive reflection (defined as “changes in perspective” on life tasks over time1) using personal project analysis (Little 1983). Evidence of discrete restoration: the research supports existing empirical evidence linking activity in natural settings with mood restoration and adds to the evidence base by showing the benefits also extend to manageability of life tasks. New evidence is provided showing people with variable mental health differ in their potential for restoration, both in terms of the intensity of the experience and in response to the places in which the process occurs. People with poor mental health experienced more intensive restoration in a natural setting, but also responded more favourably to the urban setting than people without mental health problems. Natural settings promoted a mental equanimity2 across individuals with variable mental health as compared to the built setting where group outcomes diverged. 1For simplification this is referred to as “mindset” in the research 2 A levelling out of mood differences iii Evidence of instoration; the research supports the notion that activity in green settings can sustain longer term instorative benefits in adults and young people with mental health problems including increased capacity for trust and recollection, exploratory behaviour and social cohesion. Evidence of person-environment fit: a. niche environments supportive of mood regulation: the research extends existing evidence by showing natural and built settings support the continuum of good mood as well as the negation of bad mood in young people. b. niche environments supportive of personal goals: natural settings support age specific needs in young people for new experiences and community cohesion (in the form of societal projects), two dimensions supportive of well-being. Affect was found to be a significant discriminator between settings with positive affect aligned with the natural environment. Conclusions: results are consistent with a restorative effect of landscape and suggest differing states of mental health moderate in restorative processes. The research has also shown that the built environment is potentially restorative amongst certain health groups. The affective quality of environments varies and the ‘personal project’ research has shown the potential impact on well-being. Items flagged for further research include firstly, the need for further evidence on the relationship between the challenge of green activity and self-esteem in poor mental health groups; and secondly, the need to identify exactly what aspects of the built environment cause restorative differences to occur (i.e. the social context v. physical).

Abstract:
This thesis argues that we can establish better relationships with our buildings by introducing more means to control and customise them to suit our needs and preferences. The study investigates contemporary office buildings and emphasises the importance of making our workplace environment more flexible, desirable, and durable by introducing cybernetic relationships between buildings and their users. The thesis concludes with a suggestion that the introduction of Co-adaptable environments, in which building users and their built environment positively affect and improve each other, is the key to achieving such environments.

Abstract:
Globale Urbanisierungsprozesse und eine Zunahme der räumlichen Konzentration von exponierten Elementen wie Menschen, Gebäude, Infrastruktur und ökonomische Werte induzieren ein ungekanntes Risiko in erdbebengefährdeten Regionen. Wenn keine Abschwächung des Risikos erfolgt werden dramatische Folgen in der Zukunft erwartet. Diese umfassen eine beispiellose Anzahl an Todesopfer, enorme ökonomische und ökologische Verluste und Ausfälle bezüglich kritischer Infrastruktur und Versorgung etc. Um derartige Gefährdungen abzuschwächen sind detaillierte Informationen über seismisches Risiko notwendig. Die seismische Verwundbarkeit von Siedlungsarealen ist dabei als zentrale, konstituierende Komponente von seismischem Risiko zu berücksichtigen. In diesem Zusammenhang ist es von besonderem Interesse das Verhalten von Gebäudeinventaren unter einem bestimmten Erdbebeneinfluss abschätzen zu können. Das Hauptziel der Arbeit war es maßgeschneiderte Methoden zu entwickeln, die eine Bewertung der seismischen Vulnerabilität von Siedlungsräumen, basierend auf Fernerkundungsdaten, durchführbar machen. Es wurden Methoden aus dem Bereich des maschinellen Lernens adaptiert, um Verwundbarkeitsstufen von Gebäuden und homogenen Siedlungsstrukturen zu bestimmen. Hierfür wurden Merkmale aus Fernerkundungsdaten abgeleitet und mit in situ Informationen verknüpft. Wir verwenden verschiedene Ensembles von Fernerkundungssensoren, um die urbane Morphologie umfassend zu charakterisieren. Empirische Ergebnisse, die für die erdbebengefährdeten Städte Padang (Indonesien) und Istanbul (Türkei) generiert werden konnten, bestätigen die Durchführbarkeit der entwickelten Verfahren. Zukünftige Arbeiten können daran anknüpfen und beispielsweise empirische Erkenntnisse in weiteren Fallstudien anzweifeln, eine Verbesserung der Methodik vornehmen, Konzepte und Ansätze auf andere Sensorsysteme oder Datenquellen übertragen oder Daten und Methoden im Rahmen von holistischen Risikobewertungsstrategien anwenden.
Global urbanization processes and increasing spatial concentration of exposed elements such as people, buildings, infrastructure, and economic values in earthquake prone regions induce seismic risk at a uniquely high level. This situation, when left unmitigated, is expected to cause unprecedented death tolls, enormous economic and ecological losses, and critical infrastructure and service failures, etc., in the future. To mitigate those perils requires detailed knowledge about seismic risks. As an important constituent element of seismic risk, the seismic vulnerability of the built environment has to be assessed. In particular, it is crucial to know about the behavior of the building inventory under a certain level of ground shaking. The main goal of the thesis was to develop and evaluate tailored methods and procedures that allow for a viable seismic vulnerability assessment of the built environment with remote sensing data. In particular, methods from the machine learning domain were adapted to estimate vulnerability levels of buildings and homogeneous urban structures based on features derived from remote sensing and by incorporation of in situ knowledge. To this purpose we deploy ensembles of earth observation sensors to exhaustively characterize the urban morphology. Empirical results, obtained for the earthquake prone cities Padang (Indonesia) and Istanbul (Turkey), confirm the viability of the approaches. Overall, this thesis provides some promising results, which show that remote sensing has a high capability to contribute to a rapid screening assessment of the seismic vulnerability of buildings and urban structures. Further work can build upon these results and may challenge empirical findings in further case studies, enhance developed and applied methods, transfer concepts and approaches to other sensor systems and data sources, or apply data and methodologies within integrative and holistic risk assessment strategies.

Abstract:
Double skin facades (DSF) provide a means of enhancing the energy saving capabilities of buildings. By being able to respond dynamically to changing ambient conditions using natural ventilation, shading devices, and/or thermal insulation devices or strategies, DSFs are being incorporated into modern architecture and even retrofitted in some older structures to reduce the energy required to balance the load input into the building. Utilizing a general building model and weather conditions and integrating various designs for DSFs, a comparative study can be made to support or oppose the different designs changes being made. The analysis of the set-up will be performed by Fluent, a computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software. Fluent will solve for the Navier-Stokes equations and turbulent flow using the finite volume method. These results show that the energy necessary to power the HVAC system decreases with certain configurations.
