2. 1. Health and Office Architecture

   Author : Melina Forooraghi; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; Nordic; Salutogenic; Office design; Workplace; Sense of coherence; Design approach; Employee; Case study; Well-being; Qualitative study; Productivity; Physical office environment; Health; Architecture;

   Abstract : The office, where many people spend most of their day, influences the health of employees, their families, communities, and society. While the body of research that relates office environment to health is growing, a question of interest for practitioners arises: how buildings should be designed and managed in order to support and promote health.

4. 2. Software Architecture Quality Evaluation : Approaches in an Industrial Context

   Author : Frans Mårtensson; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Evaluation; Multiple quality attributes; Software architecture; Quality;

   Abstract : Software architecture has been identified as an increasingly important part of software development. The software architecture helps the developer of a software system to define the internal structure of the system. READ MORE

5. 3. Tracing a Sacred Building Tradition. Wooden Churches, Carpenters and Founders in Maramures until the Turn of the 18th Century

   Author : Babos Alexandru; Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö; []
   Keywords : HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; vernacular architecture in Maramureº; European log building; church carpenters; founders; sacred building tradition and regional identity.; wooden churches; Architecture; inredningsarkitektur; Arkitektur; interior design;

   Abstract : The increasing interest in the European historical log construction has heightened the need for comprehensive studies in different parts of the continent to view both the common features and the particular ones. The advanced Scandinavian research has revealed the problems of studying in depth and maintaining the log heritage when links to traditional carpentry are lost. READ MORE

6. 4. Geometry linking the art of building and the Universe: Geometric patterns on shells and grid shells

   Abstract : Geometry links the art of building and the physics of space-time. Mathematical breakthroughs in geometry have led to new ways of designing our structures and our ability to visualise and describe the world, phenomena in nature and the universe. READ MORE

7. 5. Prestress and its application to shell, fabric, and cable net structures

   Author : Alexander Sehlström; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
   Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Geometric stiffness; Form finding; Conceptual design; Stress pattern; Engineering; Prestress; Architecture; Structuraldesign;

   Abstract : Prestressing and shells provide means to create material-efficient and well-functioning structures, as do their combination, offering opportunities for increased material efficiency within the built environment. Prestressing introduces stresses in an object to enhance its performance, and shells include concrete shells, masonry vaults, fabric structures, cable nets, and timber or steel gridshells.
