  2. 1. Geometry linking the art of building and the Universe: Geometric patterns on shells and grid shells

    Author : Emil Adiels; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; HUMANIORA; HUMANITIES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Form finding; Differential Geometry; Conceptual design; Geometry; Shell; Engineering; Masonry; Craftsmanship; Grid shell; Architecture; Structural design;

    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

  4. 2. Prestress in Nature and Technics

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

    Abstract : To direct the forces of nature is a central task in the creation of spaces and load-carrying structures for architecture. This research investigates how prestress can be used as a design tool for the creation of material efficient and well-functioning structures, and in early design stages contribute to sustainable, functional and beautiful architecture.

  5. 3. Numerical Methods for Geometric Vision: From Minimal to Large Scale Problems

    Author : Martin Byröd; Matematik LTH; []
    Keywords : Minimal Problems; Bundle Adjustment; Computer Vision; Polynomial Equations;

    Abstract : This thesis presents a number of results and algorithms for the numerical solution of problems in geometric computer vision. In geometric computer vision one tries to extract geometric information about the world and the observer from a sequence of images. READ MORE
