Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Walking is one of the important actions of the human body. For this purpose, the human brain communicates with leg muscles through the nervous system. Based on the walking path, leg muscles act differently. Therefore, there should be a relation between the activity of leg muscles and the path of movement. OBJECTIVE: In order to address this issue, we analyzed how leg muscle activity is related to the variations of the path of movement. METHOD: Since the electromyography (EMG) signal is a feature of muscle activity and the movement path has complex structures, we used entropy analysis in order to link their structures. The Shannon entropy of EMG signal and walking path are computed to relate their information content. RESULTS: Based on the obtained results, walking on a path with greater information content causes greater information content in the EMG signal which is supported by statistical analysis results. This allowed us to analyze the relation between muscle activity and walking path. CONCLUSION: The method of analysis employed in this research can be applied to investigate the relation between brain or heart reactions and walking path.

Abstract:
Walkability is one of the keys in developing a sustainable city. These days, many cities have considered enhancing walkability for pedestrian paths to ensure the seamless walking experience for people to reach their destination. Therefore, it is very important to have a good walking environment so people will find walking pleasant. However, there was a lack of studies attempting to include indoor walking environments in their walkability analysis. Most of them only consider outdoor walking paths. This might be due to the difficulties in modelling the indoor walking environment. With the advance technology of laser scanning, it might be possible to develop an indoor walking path by using point clouds collected for a building. The usage of point clouds could make it easier to segment the building elements and obstacles in an indoor environment. In order to produce an indoor map, it is important to reconstruct the building elements such as wall, ceiling, window and door. Therefore, this paper aims to generate the indoor walking path using laser scanning point clouds showing all the options to the pedestrians.Keywords: Walkability, indoor mapping, point cloud, laser scanning, mobile laser scanning

Abstract:
<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> Computerized path planning, not constrained to transportation networks, may be useful in a range of settings, from search and rescue to archaeology. This paper develops a method for general path planning intended to work across arbitrary distances and at the level of terrain detail afforded by aerial LiDAR scanning. Relevant information about terrain, trails, roads, and other infrastructure is encoded in a large directed graph. This basal graph is partitioned into strongly connected subgraphs such that the generalized diameter of each subgraphs is constrained by a set value, and with nominally as few subgraphs as possible. This is accomplished using the k-center algorithm adapted with heuristics suitable for large spatial graphs. A simplified graph results, with reduced (but known) position accuracy and complexity. Using a hierarchy of simplified graphs adapted to different length scales, and with careful selection of levels in the hierarchy based on geodesic distance, a shortest path search can be restricted to a small subset of the basal graph. The method is formulated using matrix-graph duality, suitable for linear algebra-oriented software. Extensive use is also made of public data, including LiDAR, as well as free and open software for geospatial data processing.</p>

Abstract:
Deciphering of the molecular mechanism of the “unfolded protein response” (UPR) provides a wonderful example of how serendipity can shape scientific discovery. Secretory and membrane proteins begin their journey to the cell surface in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Before leaving the organelle, proteins are quality-controlled, and only properly folded proteins are transported onwards. The UPR detects an insufficiency in the protein-folding capacity in the ER and in the ways of a finely tuned homeostat adjusts organelle abundance according to need. If the protein-folding defect in the ER cannot be corrected, the UPR switches from a cell-protective to a cell-destructive mode and activates apoptosis in metazoan cells. Such life or death decisions position the UPR in the center of numerous pathologies, including viral infection, protein-folding diseases, diabetes, and cancer. The UPR proved to be a rich field for serendipitous discovery because the molecular machines that transmit information about insufficient protein folding and activate appropriate gene expression programs function in unusual, unprecedented ways. A key regulatory switch in the UPR, for example, is a cytoplasmic, nonconventional mRNA spicing reaction, initiated by a bifunctional transmembrane kinase/endoribonuclease.

Abstract:
This practice-based project articulates the notion of an autoethnographic transect using Walking Home, a particular journey that I made in 2009, as its foundation. Borrowing key terms from the fields of ethnography and ecology, the project articulates a new contribution to knowledge by expanding the notion of a transect and using methods appropriated from autoethnography to generate visual arts practice in the wake of a long distance walk. Walking from London, England to St. Gallen, Switzerland the journey was undertaken in the wake of my father’s death. The key principle this project takes from autoethnography is that the position of the emotive self, as researcher and researched, can offer unique insights into a given field. Methods borrowed from autoethnography and ecology are re-employed throughout a transdisciplinary practice and body of research that, through the development of an ecological from of subjectivity, articulates an autoethnographic transect. The project expands the scale of a transect, from a line drawn across a field, to a journey taken across Europe; one that is drawn, walked and talked into being. Walking Home is presented in a holistic form whereby contextual and critical work is interwoven with and within practice: writing, image making, performance and installation. This interwoven process, whereby the practice and research become an inherent part of each other, is exemplified through a body of work called Fondue, a performance, taking place as a dinner party, which has evolved out of my engagement with autoethnography. An exhibition took place in Spring 2015, the outcomes of which are folded into this thesis. Articulating the notion of an autoethnographic transect as a new method within the field of visual arts practice this thesis will be of interest to performance practitioners, artists and writers engaged with the field of walking as a form of practice or process.

Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) is a bus-based public transport system that increase the effectiveness of public transportation through dedicated lanes with busways and independent stations. However, the low capacity at the stations and the high demand of the system increases the respiratory diseases risk caused by the interaction between pedestrians. This article proposes to make the main access point an entrance only and the access point at the opposite end of the platform an exit only, allowing one-way walking paths. This research is focused on the reduction of conflict points between pedestrians generated by walking flows in opposite directions. A BRT station located in the city of Lima was used as a case study for the investigation. It was identified for the peak hour that the area with the highest pedestrian interaction occurs in the station platform and boarding areas. The efficiency of the proposal is validated by using the Viswalk software. The results obtained show that the conflict points decreased by 68.5% and the pedestrian density by 45%. From that perspective, the pedestrian flows were optimized, and the risk of respiratory diseases was reduced.

Abstract:
This dissertation traces the act of walking as both metaphor and physical journey through the American landscape in American texts. Drawing together texts from different time periods, genres, and cultural contexts, I contend that walking is a central trope in American literature. Textual representations of traversing the land provoke transformation of the self recording the walk and the landscape in the imagination of the walker. The experience of walking across and through the heavily storied American land challenges the walker to reconcile lived experience with prior expectations.While many critics have noted the preponderance of travel stories in American literature, they tend to center their studies on the journeys of Euro-American men and less often Euro-American women, and approach walking solely as metaphor. The symbolic power of a figure walking across the American land has rightfully interested critics looking at travel across the continent; however, this focus tends to obscure the fact that walking, after all, is not only a literary trope - it has real, physical dimensions as well.Walking in the American land is more than the forward movement of civilization, and it is more than the experience of wilderness and wildness. In many ways, walking defines the American ideals of space, place, and freedom. In this context, this dissertation investigates the connections between walking, American literature, and the natural world: What is it about walking that seems to allow American writers to experience the land in a way that horses, cars, trains, and planes prevent? What about the land and the self is revealed at three miles an hour? In the texts I examine, walking provides a connection to the natural world, the sacred, and individual and cultural identity. I trace American responses to nature and cultural identity through the model of walking - the rhythm of footsteps, the pain of blisters and calluses, and the silence of moving through the wilderness on foot.

Abstract:
The dissertation design seeks to make present and enhance the inherent qualities of the Stand Street Quarry in order to reintroduce its heritage narratives into the public realm. The proposed intervention aspires to, if anything, subtlety. It seeks to make the value of the histories of the site evident to the user in such a way that they are compelled to find meaning individually, to interact with the site and the landscape in a meaningful and personal manner. Minimalistic design solutions were sought out in order to produce a product scheme that embeds another layer of human intervention in the palimpsestual narrative of the Signal Hill territory.

Aquae ducto - significa a água conduzida. O Aqueduto da Água da Prata, enquanto infraestrutura de condução de água e o percurso ambiental a ele associado, constitui o objeto de estudo deste trabalho. O presente trabalho de projeto pretende descrever, analisar e responder a dificuldades que o atual itinerário ambiental apresenta ao caminhante. Propõem-se diferentes possibilidades e alternativas para percorrer este trajeto, associando espaços e pequenos equipamentos situados ao longo do território. Estes representam momentos de pausa e transição para o caminhante e completam o percurso, assumindo um carácter funcional e lúdico que colmata as necessidades sentidas ao longo do reconhecimento do território. Durante o estudo e análise do concelho, da cidade de Évora e do Aqueduto da Água da Prata, caminhou-se ao longo do trajeto, enquanto ferramenta metodológica fundamental de reconhecimento e de validação de novas hipóteses de projeto. Fotografou-se e filmou-se o Aqueduto, a sua relação com o território e com a cidade, como registo do processo de reconhecimento metodológico e de salvaguarda para o futuro. O desenho projetual ancorou-se às singularidades identificadas ao longo do território que justificam as opções arquitetónicas e de projeto que complementam a experiência no percurso; ABSTRACT: Aquae duct - means driven water. The Água da Prata Aqueduct, as an infrastructure that conduces the water and the environmental walk to it associated, constitutes the study object of this work. The present project work pretends to describe, analyze and respond to difficulties presented by the actual environmental itinerary to the walker. Different possibilities and alternatives are proposed to go through this course associating spaces and small appointments located all along the territory. These represent transitional moments for the walker and complete the path assuming a ludic and functional character to meet the needs felt during the reconnaissance held on the territory. During the study and analysis of the county, Évora's city and the Àgua da Prata Aqueduct, walks were held along the way as a fundamental knowledge instrument and methodological tool of recognition and validation of new project hypothesis. Pictures and videos were taken from the aqueduct and its relationship with the territory and the city as a process record of methodological recognition and safeguard for the future. The projectual drawing got anchored at the singularities identified along the territory that justify the architectural and projectl options that complete the path experience.

Abstract:
Transformations of energy systems in line with the Paris Agreement demand rapid deliberate decline of fossil energy production for decarbonization. Rising in priority on national political agendas, policy change for deliberate decline meets political barriers in the form of powerful incumbent actors, path dependencies and frames of loss. Although these dynamics can impede transformations, literature remains unclear in how to engage with these barriers. Therefore, this study focused on discourse and policy process theories in a qualitative analysis based on a broad selection of documents and expert-based interviews to explore and illustrate the “Commission on Growth, Structural Change and Employment” in Germany (2018/19). In this multi-stakeholder committee, a phase-out plan for coal-fired power generation was negotiated alongside claims of just transitions. Findings indicate that policy change was reached through consensual agreement but was reduced in ambition through path dependent discourse and expert-based information. The selection and evaluation of expert-based information was closely tied to expert members, while political debate on necessary assumptions as a basis for this information remained scarce. Lastly, insights from discourse and expert-based information can enrich the understanding of sustainability transformations and further research on the case could investigate the narrative subscriptions of stakeholders.

Abstract:
The objective of this paper is to provide a minimum dose path navigation method for occupational workers to avoid additional radiation exposure and quantitatively analyze the cost of paths in radioactive environments. A sampling-based algorithm named Bias-based T-RRT* (BT-RRT*) was proposed, which is an extension of nearly the latest sampling-based algorithm T-RRT*. It combines the exploration strength of T-RRT* that favors the exploration of low-cost regions and connects sampling points selectively with the strategy of biased sampling around the suboptimal paths to increase the convergence rate. To improve planning efficiency, a branch-and-bound strategy is also integrated to improve the efficiency of maintaining the node tree. A walking path-planning system was also developed using virtual reality. Simulation results presented in several radioactive environments show that the walking path planning method was effective in providing the minimum dose path navigation for occupational workers to avoid additional radiation exposure and to increase personnel safety.

The symmetry results in near omni-directional locomotion capability, so the algorithm is formulated for walking in any direction and at any height. The approach is to determine the maximum length foot path through each limb’s workspace and then modify those foot paths based upon static stability analysis. The stability analysis is conducted in two phases to ensure stability without excessively reducing step length. Compared to an optimization approach, the algorithm yields foot paths within 9.1% of the maximal foot paths for all directions and heights. Unlike the optimization approach, the developed algorithm is computationally efficient enough to be implemented in realtime.

Abstract:
The transportation studies literature recognizes the relationship between accessibility and active travel. However, there is limited research on the specific impact of walking and cycling accessibility to multi-use paths on active travel behavior. Combined with the culture of automobile dependency in the US, this knowledge gap has been making it difficult for policy-makers to encourage walking and cycling mode choices, highlighting the need to promote a walking and cycling culture in cities. In this case, a clustering effect (“you bike, I bike”) can be used as leverage to initiate such a trend. This project contributes to the literature as one of the few published research projects that considers all typical categories of explanatory variables (individual and household socioeconomics, local built environment features, and travel and residential choice attitudes) as well as two new variables (accessibility to multi-use paths calculated by ArcGIS and a clustering effect represented by spatial autocorrelation) at two levels (level 1: binary choice of cycling/waking; level 2: cycling/walking time if yes at level 1) to better understand active travel demand. We use data from the 2012 Utah Travel Survey. At the first level, we use a spatial probit model to identify whether and why Salt Lake City residents walked or cycled. The second level is the development of a spatial autoregressive model for walkers and cyclists to examine what factors affect their travel time when using walking or cycling modes. The results from both levels, obtained while controlling for individual, attitudinal, and built-environment variables, show that accessibility to multi-use paths and a clustering effect (spatial autocorrelation) influence active travel behavior in different ways. Specifically, a cyclist is likely to cycle more when seeing more cyclists around. These findings provide analytical evidence to decision-makers for efficiently evaluating and deciding between plans and policies to enhance active transportation based on the two modeling approaches to assessing travel behavior described above.

Abstract:
To deliver infrastructure that sustain our communities, economy, and environment, we must innovate, modernize, and even revolutionize our approach to infrastructure development. Change takes courage, but as one starts down the path of innovation, what was once novel becomes more familiar, more established. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) is walking this path with our partners through the Engineering With Nature (EWN) Initiative, integrating human engineering with natural systems. The International Guidelines on Natural and Nature-Based Features for Flood Risk Management are the next step toward revolutionary infrastructure development—a set of real-world guidelines to help familiarize us with what was once novel. USACE and collaborators around the world have been building, learning, and documenting the best practices for constructing Natural and Nature-Based Features (NNBF) for decades. The consolidation of these lessons into a single guidance document gives decision-makers and practitioners a much-needed resource to pursue, consider, and apply NNBF for flood risk management while expanding value through infrastructure. Relationships and partnerships are vital ingredients for innovation and progress. The NNBF Guidelines was achieved because of the strong relationships in the nature-based engineering community. The magnitude and diversity of contributors to the NNBF Guidelines have resulted in a robust resource that provides value beyond a single agency, sector, or nation. Similarly, the work of incorporating NNBF into projects will require us to strengthen our relationships across organizations, mandates, and missions to achieve resilient communities. I hope you are inspired by the collaborative achievement of the NNBF Guidelines and will draw from this resource to develop innovative solutions to current and future flood risk management challenges. There is a lot we can achieve together along the path of revolutionary infrastructure development.
