title: Media practices  of civil society organisations: Emerging paths to legitimation and long-term engagement
Creators: name: Kubitschko, Sebastian
Publisher: name: Goldsmiths, University of London
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: democracy, civil society organisation, hackers, legitimacy, media practices, media environments, engagement

description: In this thesis I wish to analyse the complex relationship between actors’ media- related practices, legitimacy and long-term engagement. Based on a qualitative approach my research investigates two cases –Citizens for Europe, a civil society organisations involved in issues relating to European citizenship, and the Chaos Computer Club, one of the world’s oldest and largest hacker organisations. More concretely, through face-to-face interviews, participant observation and media analysis I analyse the role media practices play for the two organisations to establish legitimation and to sustain their political engagement over time. Accordingly, my thesis seeks to provide an empirically informed interpretive account of the meaning media-related practices have for actors’ political endeavours. From a more operationalised perspective, I am trying to make a convincing argument that practices circulating around and oriented towards media technologies and infrastructures play a configurative role for actors’ ability to co-determine democratic constellations. Instead of suggesting a straightforward causal chain my thesis conceptualises the entanglements between media practices, legitimation and long-term engagement as interlocking arrangements grounded in relational dynamics. Overall, my thesis aims to compliment existing research on the role media technologies and infrastructures play for the formation of political arrangements by looking at organisation-based engagement. In doing so, my research partially bridges a current research gap concerning the relationship between organisational actors’ media-related practices and their ability to establish legitimacy and to perpetuate political engagement over time.

description: Smart manufacturing promotes the demand of a new interface for communication with virtual entities such as big data analysis model, digital twin, and autonomous software programs. Although ideal smart manufacturing pursues full automation by self-adoption and self-decision of autonomy, converging human intervention and collaboration with the autonomy have shown significant improvements on productivity and quality, and it expects more advancements on current manufacturing trend. This study aims how to combine human and autonomy based on current technical advancement of smart manufacturing. In detail, creating networks between the entities, developing a new interface for human-autonomy collaboration, and demonstrating the effectiveness of the collaboration are main research topics.

OPPORTUNITIES AND CHALLENGES OF COLLABORATIVE WORK: AN EXAMINATION AT THE MESO AND MICRO LEVELS OF PUBLIC HEALTH COLLABORATIONS IN INDIANA
Creators: name: Rawat, Meghana
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2021
Subjects: Communication studies

description: Collaborative work across different societal and multiple sectors has historically provided innovative solutions to address community development. It continues to be a crucial focus for funders and policymakers in all areas. This dissertation sought to extend organizational communication scholarship’s contribution by examining how collaborative work manifests at the meso level by interviewing 13 key informants who facilitate collaborations in various counties of Indiana and conducting a qualitative structural analysis of the ego-networks of nine community health workers (CHWs)situated in rural, urban and rural-urban counties of Indiana). The mesolevel communicative model of collaboration (Keyton et al., 2008) was applied to do so. The findings of this study support two key theoretical implications for collaborative work from an egocentric network perspective – 1) individual or personal ties of CHWs are perceived as close communicative relationships only when complemented by knowledge and social capital attributes, 2) While diverse ideas are essential for effective collaborations, lack of trust of new people and ideas, specifically in rural contexts may create tensions which can be navigated by finding common ground through close or dense relational ties with an individual already embedded in the socio-cultural context. Additionally, this dissertation extends the mesolevel communicative model to include examining socio-cultural contexts in their examination of communicative acts in assessing collaborative effectiveness. It also furthers the qualitative structural analysis to include case descriptive to understand an actor’s social embeddedness. Lastly, practical implications for those who fund and evaluate collaborative work are presented, including training funders (on local contexts) and collaborators (on determining their success metrics as a collaborative team).
title: Emotive Terrains: Exploring the emotional geographies of city through walking as art, senses and embodied technologies
Creators: name: Psarras, Vasileios

Subjects: subject: Flaneur, walking as art, emotional geographies, senses, psychogeography, metaphors, embodied technologies, city, hybrid flaneur, non-places, locative media

description: Walking has always been the nexus between humans and the city, constituting an expression with artistic, cultural, performative and sensorial implications for an array of artistic and intellectual voices. This thesis investigates the personal and shared emotional geographies of the city (e.g. streets, tube stations) through performative and aesthetic considerations of walking, senses, metaphors and embodied technologies. Three areas primarily inform this thesis and shape its chapters: i) contemporary urban walking theories and artistic spatial practices (e.g. flaneur, psychogeography), ii) sensory/technological aspects of walking and of contemporary city and iii) the investigation of emotional geographies. The research has opened up new dialogues within the 21st century city by highlighting the sensory and social importance of walking as art and the flaneur in the production and exploration of emotional geographies. Consequently, it proposes a hybrid walking as art method, which is pursued through a trialectic of actions, senses and selected metaphors (e.g. “botanizing”, “weaving”, “tuning”, “orchestrating”) amplified by technologies. The core inventive method and methodology is personal or shared walking, shaped by the qualitative sub-methods of talking whilst walking, embodied audiovisual/GPS tools, metaphors and online blogging. These methods contribute to a live reflection and documentation of sensory and emotional attentiveness. Outputs of this research include a series of fully documented walking artworks in London and Athens, presented through audiovisual means and maps. This thesis argues that the trialectic of actions, senses and metaphors through technologies extends our understanding of walking and flaneur as a hybrid method of production and analysis. Consequently, it re-contextualises the concept of flaneur in the 21st century city by proposing the one of the hybrid flaneur/flaneuse through a merging of artistic, sensorial, sociological and geographical standpoints. Therefore, the thesis offers new and distinctive insights into the practices and theories of walking, regarding interdisciplinary explorations of emotional geographies of the city.

Analyzing the Effects of Autonomous Navigation on Row Crop Farming
Creators: name: Kong, Eric
Publisher: name: Purdue University Graduate School
Year: 2021
Subjects: Agricultural engineering

description: As the global population rises, so does the demand for food, feed, fiber, and fuel. Meeting this demand has become increasingly difficult due to the decline in farm labor and challenges associated with the economic viability of agricultural systems. Autonomous agricultural machinery has the potential to mitigate some of major challenges that crop production systems will face. Widespread adoption of autonomous machinery is dependent on two key factors, the cost and environmental impact. The development and adoption of autonomous vehicles will only occur if it is profitable for equipment manufacturers and farmers. As distillate fuel use for crop production increases, fuel efficient operations that minimize greenhouse gas emissions will mitigate the environmental impact of farming.

The objective of this research was to develop a model to quantify the cost, energy use, and emissions associated with the use of agricultural machinery used for row crop farming. The model calculates the cost of different sized machinery fleets for planting and harvest. Autonomy facilitates swarm farming, and the model can quantify and compare these to human-operated machinery systems.

For an 800-hectare case study farm in the Midwest, with the acreage split evenly between corn and soybeans, the most cost-effective planting machinery fleet was comprised of two autonomous, 56-kW JD 5075E tractors pulling 4-row planters ($40/ha/yr). The most cost-effective fleet used the most fuel (4,327 liters) and produced the most emissions (219,735 grams). For a similar conventional system to complete planting during the same working window, it would require 4 tractors and cost $75/ha/yr. The $35/ha/yr difference between the similar fleets was the value added by autonomy. Current row crop farming trends have shifted towards fewer operators with larger machines and implements. The most cost-effective, single operator machinery set from the database (Case Magnum 200 with a 16-row planter) costs $43/ha/yr more than overall most cost-effective fleet. Total fuel used to complete the planting operation was minimized by using a single John Deere 8320R pulling a 36-row planter. To plant all 800-hectares, the 8320R used 2,528 liters of diesel fuel and produced a combined 44,002 grams of emissions. The JD 5075E was able to minimize cost, but it used the most fuel and produced the most greenhouse gas.

title: Subjects of Creation. On Materialist Abstraction and the Enactment of Ideas
Creators: name: Töpfner, Christian
Publisher: name: Goldsmiths, University of London
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Creation, novelty, abstraction, subjectivity, Badiou

description: How are we to think creation today when such an act is understood as the making of something out of nothing? Insisting that genuine creation happens ex nihilo brings us into direct confrontation with much of contemporary philosophical thought, be it critical or analytic, since the latter predominantly rules out the possibility of making reasonable statements about nothingness, or, indeed, about any kind of radical outside to what exists. This thesis attempts to formulate a speculative, rudimentary model of creation that proceeds from the consequences of affirming the possibility to not only think a radical outside, but to also instantiate ‘some’ of the latter in the form of genuine novelty. The terms for this model are developed from, and via a close examination of, Alain Badiou’s Being and Event and Logics of Worlds. Ultimately, however, it becomes necessary to take a critical distance to Badiou’s system on the basis of some foundational inconsistencies that arise from his unrelenting Platonism. In its place, this thesis proposes an alternative generic conception of creation, which, although following Badiou’s idea of subjective formalisms, transposes the latter onto a materialist foundation with the help of Quentin Meillassoux’s work in After Finitude and the late work of Michel Foucault. It is then demonstrated how this new model can itself be materially effective, or, more specifically, how its enactment in any particular world can be thought to work. The argument is also made, contra Badiou, that the event – that which establishes the possibility for radical difference – is something we can intentionally induce or work towards. In summary, the aim of this thesis is to reinvigorate the notion of radical novelty and the process of its instantiation through the act of creation. In doing so it proposes a rational basis for the belief that genuinely different worlds are indeed possible – and how such possibilities can be thought, occasioned and enacted.
title: Nocturnal Transgressions: Nighttime Stories from Berlin, the New European Nightlife Capital

Subjects: subject: Berlin, nightlife, transgression, anti-capitalism, nighttime economy, gentrification, creative industries, continental philosophy, post-structuralist thought

description: Throughout history, nighttime has been considered by many to be antithetical to daytime; it has been regarded as a notorious interval, enabling and characterized by transgression. With the birth of the metropolis and the commercialization of nocturnal activities, nighttime – no longer considered daytime’s complete negation but rather rendered partially heterogeneous and acceptably infamous – has been blessed with its own economy and politics as well as its unique social and cultural dynamics. The urban night, as it were, has a life of its own. Indeed, nightlife is marked by the promise of seduction and eventfulness as well as by the pursuit of ecstatic fraternity with likeminded strangers resulting in self-loss and rediscovery. Therein lies its potential for transgression retained by urbanity. But therein also lies the potential for spectacle as well as the incentive for institutionalizing transgression, thereby taming it and generating profit. Using the city of Berlin as a case example, the thesis explores how this nocturnal duality manifests itself in the late capitalist metropolis. As Berlin has recently become the number one nightlife destination in Europe as well as a neo-bohemia harboring numerous privileged migrants (in terms of various types of capital as well as the right to mobility) linked with the creative industries and the arts; various historical, cultural, economic and socio-political factors have come into play in generating Berlin’s nocturnal libertarianism which is perceived by many to be exceptional in its aptness for (institutionalized) transgression. The thesis reveals by way of ethnographic evidence how these factors have come into play in creating the relatively exceptional and debatably trangressive realm that constitutes the Berlin night. This is supplemented by the additional ethnographic goal of critically assessing the subversive potential – or the lack thereof – pertaining to these nocturnal events. Within this context, the repercussions and politics of the Berlin night are further explored. Finally, the dissertation seeks to employ continental philosophy and critical theory to make sense of the self-loss and ecstatic fraternity associated with certain instances of (institutionalized) nocturnal transgression as well as to explore the nightly potential for resisting the spectacle.

description: The key requirement for harnessing the quantum properties of light is the capability to detect and count individual photons. Of particular interest are photon-number-resolving detectors, which allow one to determine whether a state of light is classical or genuinely quantum. Existing schemes for addressing this challenge rely on a proportional conversion of photons to electrons. As such, they are capable of correctly characterizing small photon fluxes, yet are limited by uncertainties in the conversion rate. In this work, we employ a divide-and-conquer approach to infallibly discerning non-classicality of states of light. This is achieved by transforming the incident fields into uniform spatial distributions that readily lend themselves for characterization by standard on-off detectors. Since the exact statistics of the light stream in multiplexed on-off detectors are click statistics, our technique is freely scalable to accommodate–in principle–arbitrarily large photon fluxes. Our experiments pave the way towards genuine integrated photon-number-resolving detection for advanced on-chip photonic quantum networks.

description: The study aims to address advanced approaches to the optimal settings of heating structures and panels to improve thermal comfort and energy efficiency in buildings. The study analysed various materials for thermal insulation, different heating systems and energy-efficient windows, using common formulas to calculate their thermal performance and efficiency. The study analysed various modern methods of optimising heating systems to improve thermal comfort and energy efficiency in buildings. As such, the study determined that the use of intelligent heating control systems, such as smart thermostats and sensors, can significantly reduce energy consumption. The study also determined that heat pumps, especially geothermal and air source heat pumps, are effective solutions for sustainable heating. The study results confirmed that three-chamber windows with a third gap between the glass panes can maximise energy savings by significantly reducing heat loss and providing high thermal insulation. The study also determined that condensing gas boilers and heat pumps are optimal for efficient energy savings. Low-temperature heating systems, such as underfloor heating and efficient radiators, contribute to even heat distribution and energy savings. The use of renewable energy sources, such as solar collectors and wind turbines, was also determined to be an effective means of reducing dependence on traditional energy resources. The study also showed that the integration of various technologies and systems into a single climate control system allows for maximum efficiency and comfort. As a result, the combined use of innovative methods and materials not only significantly reduces energy consumption but also improves living conditions in modern buildings.

description: The purpose of the study was to assess the impact of Chinese infrastructure projects on the sustainable development of transport and logistics systems in Kyrgyzstan, including economic, environmental, and social aspects. The study analysed investment flows and the impact of transport infrastructure, evaluated the use of modern construction technologies, and conducted an environmental analysis of infrastructure projects and regional economic integration. It was found that Chinese infrastructure projects in Kyrgyzstan contribute to a significant improvement in the transport network, which has a positive impact on the economic development of the country. Projects such as the modernisation of the Bishkek-Osh road significantly reduce transportation time transportation costs, which stimulates the growth of trade and investment. However, potential risks have also been identified, including environmental problems such as increased pollution levels and impacts on local ecosystems. Social aspects also require attention: improved infrastructure has contributed to job creation, but has also caused displacement of local communities and a change in their way of life. The analysis showed that Chinese investments in infrastructure help to integrate Kyrgyzstan into regional transport and trade networks, which increases its strategic importance in Central Asia. In order to minimise the negative impact on the environment, it is recommended to strengthen environmental control and develop measures to compensate for the consequences for local communities. The study provides information on the complex impacts of Chinese infrastructure projects on the sustainable development of transport and logistics systems.

description: The Covid-19 virus has significantly affected the development of the world economy; moreover, this influence has turned out to be quite ambiguous. In this paper, the emphasis was placed on considering the development trends of construction companies and the primary housing market. Thus, the main objectives of the work are to assess the impact of the COVID-19 crisis on this sector of the economy and to assess possible trends in its development in the future. The main method in writing the work was the method of analysis conditioned upon the large number of processed statistical data on the development of the construction sector and the housing market in the countries of the world. During the analysis, the author came to the conclusion that the development trends of construction companies in the countries of the world as a whole have a similar trend: all of them have suffered significantly from the pandemic and its limitations. However, there are some negative trends depending on the regions and countries; it was shown that the state of construction companies largely depended on how the state reacted to the newly appeared problems, how active and fast it was. Prices on the housing market showed a significant increase, which is also primarily explained by the policy of states to support businesses (mainly small) and local residents in connection with the pandemic, which means an increase in their ability to pay.

description: The relevance of this study lies in the growing need for seamless integration between various digital systems in the construction industry, driven by the increasing adoption of digital technologies. The aim of the study is to develop standards and protocols for ensuring effective interoperability and compatibility between different digital systems used in construction. To achieve this, the study applied methods of analysis, experimentation, and practical testing. Key outcomes include the creation of a unified format standard, a sensor data integration standard, and a standard for unified architectural solutions, all of which address specific interoperability challenges in data integration. Additionally, the study developed secure protocols for data transfer and protection between systems, such as computer-aided design (CAD) tools and building information models (BIM). The practical application of these standards and protocols demonstrated improved data conversion, minimized errors related to inconsistencies, and enhanced project management efficiency. The results underscore the potential of these solutions to optimize the construction process, allowing for faster and more accurate information exchange across different platforms. This study contributes to the broader understanding of how digital innovations can improve the integration and management of construction systems. The findings offer valuable insights for further research on enhancing the efficiency and competitiveness of construction companies through digital transformation.

description: The development of computation resources, sensing technologies and artificial intelligence has been the critical driving force for the development of next-generation smart devices in this Internet of Things (IoT) era. The requirement of sustainable and reliable sensing operation is becoming more and more important due to the exponential increment in the number of sensors with different functions deployed everywhere. Such a sensing network provides a more convenient way for connection and communication, making the boundary among humans, machines, and the external environment gradually blurred. Self-powered sensors which can directly utilize the external input energy to drive the operation of their own are highly desirable compared with the current sensing technology with a limited life cycle caused by power shortage. The invention of Triboelectric Nanogenerators (TENG) and Piezoelectric Nanogenerators (PENG) provides a novel direction for self-powered sensing technology. Both TENG and PENG can directly convert mechanical energy to an electrical signal, which could be further processed and understood by computers and humans.
 In this dissertation, the research efforts have led to the design and fabrication of self-powered devices as well as system integration in the Human-Computer Interface (HCI). Materials modification was carried out to boost the performance of TENG output. A Piezotronic device using new semiconductor material, Tellurium, was fabricated and its fundamental charge transport characteristics were carefully studied for a new understanding in piezotronics. Beyond materials science, a system-level demonstration of using TENG for HCI application was also carried out. With the help of artificial intelligence technology such as machine learning and deep learning, more in-depth information was successfully extracted from the general TENG signal. The combination between Finite Element Analysis (FEA) and deep learning provided a more powerful platform for the development and verification of TENG-based sensing devices with improved working reliability. The presented concepts and results in this dissertation show the potential for the implementation of novel self-powered sensing technology in the future development for smart sensors, virtual/augmented reality (VR/AR) and other HCI-related areas.

description: The study of the visual image of the city has a high relevance in the field of urbanism and architecture, as it can help to identify important interrelationships between the external appearance of the city and its socio-cultural environment, as well as to influence the municipal planning and community activity. The aim of this work was to conduct a detailed study of the concept of visual image of the city, as well as different methods of its research. To study the concept and methods of research of visual image of the city, a complex methodology was developed. The results of the research revealed that the visual image of the city is a complex and rich phenomenon, which depends on different structural types, such as naturalistic, structuralist, constructivist and phenomenological. One of the key conclusions is that its formation occurs under the influence of a number of factors, such as architectural environment, social and economic conditions. It can be both internal, which reflects individual perception, and external. Municipal image can include both mysteriously meaningful and individual aspects, which makes it multifaceted and mobile. It is an integral part of the cultural and social landscape of the city, reflecting its architectural peculiarities and social and cultural processes. Understanding that the image of the city reflects not only its exterior appearance, but also social and cultural processes, can provide an opportunity to more effectively shape the urban environment that will meet the needs and preferences of residents and visitors.
