description: We develop the basic constructions of homological algebra in the (appropriately defined) unbounded derived categories of modules over algebras over coalgebras over noncommutative rings (which we call semialgebras over corings). We define double-sided derived functors SemiTor and SemiExt of the functors of semitensor product and semihomomorphisms, and construct an equivalence between the exotic derived categories of semimodules and semicontramodules. Certain (co)flatness and/or (co)projectivity conditions have to be imposed on the coring and semialgebra to make the module categories abelian (and the cotensor product associative). Besides, for a number of technical reasons we mostly have to assume that the basic ring has a finite homological dimension (no such assumptions about the coring and semialgebra are made). In the final sections we construct model category structures on the categories of complexes of semi(contra)modules, and develop relative nonhomogeneous Koszul duality theory for filtered semialgebras and quasi-differential corings. Our motivating examples come from the semi-infinite cohomology theory. Comparison with the semi-infinite (co)homology of Tate Lie algebras and graded associative algebras is established in appendices, and the semi-infinite homology of a locally compact topological group relative to an open profinite subgroup is defined. An application to the correspondence between complexes of representations of an infinite-dimensional Lie algebra on the complementary central charge levels ($c$ and $26-c$ for the Virasoro) is worked out.

From the Institution to the Community: Exploring Physical Restraint in Home and Community-Based Services
Creators: name: Cassidy Norton, Alison
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago

description: Adults with intellectual disabilities (IDs) have been institutionalized for centuries where, in the earliest practices, they were denied their human rights, detained in cells, and restrained with chains and shackles. In the 1980s, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) implemented Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers to offer living environments alternative to institutions. However, after more than thirty years of persisting institutional qualities within HCBS, CMS implemented the HCBS Settings Rule in 2014, recognizing the need for policies and procedures to define the setting requirements. The HCBS Settings Rule delineates required standards for these settings and acknowledges the rights of individuals receiving waiver services in HCBS. Among the rights acknowledged in the HCBS Settings Rule, the right to freedom from restraint is declared. While restraining with chains is in the distant past in disability services, restraint use may be permitted in any HCBS waiver setting, and restraining persons with ID continues in most U.S. states. This study explores how two states that authorize restraint use for adults with intellectual disabilities living in community settings implement restraint use procedures and what the self-determination implications are. Findings show that states have nearly full discretion for their restraint procedures, resulting in variations in procedure requirements, training, and type of restraints permitted in each state. This knowledge can further the understanding of restraint use practices and their implications on the self-determination of persons with ID living in the community.

description: There exists the standard quantum limit (SQL), derived from Heisenberg's uncertainty relation, in the sensitivity of laser interferometer gravitational-wave detectors. However, in the context of a full quantum-mechanical approach, SQL can be overcome using the correlation of shot noise and radiation-pressure noise. So far, signal recycling, which is one of the methods to overcome SQL, is considered only in a recombined-type interferometer such as Advanced-LIGO, LCGT, and GEO600. In this paper, we investigated quantum noise and the possibility of signal recycling in a differential-type interferometer. As a result, we found that signal recycling is possible and creates at most three dips in the sensitivity curve of the detector. Then, taking advantage of the third additional dip and comparing the sensitivity of a differential-type interferometer with that of a next-generation Japanese GW interferometer, LCGT, we found that SNR of inspiral binary is improved by a factor of 1.43 for neutron star binary, 2.28 for 50 M_sun black hole binary, and 2.94 for 100 M_sun black hole binary. We also found that power recycling to increase laser power is possible in our signal-recycling configuration of a detector.

description: Weather forecast information will very likely find increasing application in the control of future energy systems. In this paper, we introduce an augmented state space model formulation with linear dynamics, within which one can incorporate forecast information that is dynamically revealed alongside the evolution of the underlying state variable. We use the martingale model for forecast evolution (MMFE) to enforce the necessary consistency properties that must govern the joint evolution of forecasts with the underlying state. The formulation also generates jointly Markovian dynamics that give rise to Markov decision processes (MDPs) that remain computationally tractable. This paper is the first to enforce MMFE consistency requirements within an MDP formulation that preserves tractability.

A behavioural examination of the intramodal and intemodal consequences of long-term tactile restriction by vibrissae removal in rats
Creators: name: Symons, Lawrence André
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Despite the extensive work done on the neural consequences of tactile restriction very little is known about the behavioural consequences of this manipulation. In the present investigation, an assessment was made of the effects of early, long-term tactile restriction by bilateral removal of the mystacial vibrissae on the subsequent somatosensory capacities of rats (i.e. the intramodal consequences) as well as its effects on visual and spatial capacities (i.e. the intermodal consequences). As well, rearing environment (enriched vs. normal) and type of surgery (vibrissae removal by cauterization of follicles or by plucking) were examined to determine specific factors that might influence the effect of early, long-term vibrissae removal. Five tasks were used to assess these effects. The first two tasks assessed the intermodal consequences of vibrissae removal. Visual competence was assessed by measuring the habituation of orientation to repeated visual stimuli and the dishabituation to subtle changes in these stimuli. A version of the Morris (1981) water maze was used to assess the rats' spatial abilities. The results of these two tasks revealed limited evidence for intermodal effects. In terms of habituation to visual orientation, rats that had had their vibrissae removed by cauterization and were subsequently reared with daily access to an enriched environment required more trials to habituate to the presentation of repeated visual stimuli. As well, these rats were the only group to dishabituate to a subtle change in the stimuli. No effect of vibrissae removal was found in the spatial task, and environmental enrichment during development enhanced performance on this task, apparently through increased attention to distal cues by rats reared in this condition. The remaining three tasks assessed the motoric and somatosensory effects of tactile restriction. No effect was found on the performance of the Puzzle Latch Box test in which the rats were required to manipulate various latches to obtain a food reward. As well, no significant effect was observed in reactions to the tying of pieces of wire to the rats' wrists. However, early, long-term vibrissae removal (by cauterization of follicles or by plucking) attenuated orientation to contacts of the mystacial pad itself. This effect was dissociated from tactile reactivity; all rats exhibited eye-flinch responses to taps on this area. These results suggest that early, long-term tactile restriction has significant behavioural consequences for the somatosensory system as well as the visual system. These data also provide limited evidence for theories of modality interdependence as well as yielding basic information concerning the role of the mystacial vibrisse in the behaviour of the rat.
Computer Vision-Based Wildfire Detection in Video: Deep Learning Using Motion Estimation
Creators: name: Taghvaei, Fatemeh
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2024

description: This study addresses the issue of false alarms in computer vision-based wildfire detection systems by exploring the use of motion estimation to enhance accuracy. A significant challenge with using a single neural network for wildfire detection is the misclassification of fog or clouds as smoke due to their visual similarities. By incorporating Gunnar Farneback optical flow for motion estimation following the initial wildfire detection, the study achieved promising results on non-wildfire videos, reducing the average false alarm rate from 5.69% to 0.40% while maintaining an acceptable true detection rate for wildfire videos. This integration of motion estimation, specifically through the Gunnar-Farneback optical flow method, proves to be an effective strategy for reducing false alarms in non-wildfire videos while sustaining an acceptable true detection rate for wildfire videos.

description: The abolitionist movement of the nineteenth-century United States remains among the most significant social and political movements in US history. Abolitionist newspapers played a crucial role in spreading information and shaping public opinion around a range of issues relating to the abolition of slavery. These newspapers also serve as a primary source of information about the movement for scholars today, resulting in powerful new accounts of the movement and its leaders. This paper supplements recent qualitative work on the role of women in abolition's vanguard, as well as the role of the Black press, with a quantitative text modeling approach. Using diachronic word embeddings, we identify which newspapers tended to lead lexical semantic innovations -- the introduction of new usages of specific words -- and which newspapers tended to follow. We then aggregate the evidence across hundreds of changes into a weighted network with the newspapers as nodes; directed edge weights represent the frequency with which each newspaper led the other in the adoption of a lexical semantic change. Analysis of this network reveals pathways of lexical semantic influence, distinguishing leaders from followers, as well as others who stood apart from the semantic changes that swept through this period. More specifically, we find that two newspapers edited by women -- THE PROVINCIAL FREEMAN and THE LILY -- led a large number of semantic changes in our corpus, lending additional credence to the argument that a multiracial coalition of women led the abolitionist movement in terms of both thought and action. It also contributes additional complexity to the scholarship that has sought to tease apart the relation of the abolitionist movement to the women's suffrage movement, and the vexed racial politics that characterized their relation.

description: In Polymer Quantum Mechanics, a quantization scheme that naturally emerges from Loop Quantum Gravity, position and momentum operators cannot be both well-defined on the Hilbert space ( H_Poly ). It is henceforth deemed impossible to define standard creation and annihilation operators. In this letter we show that a q-oscillator structure, and hence q-deformed creation/annihilation operators, can be naturally defined on H_Poly , which is then mapped into the sum of many copies of the q-oscillator Hilbert space. This shows that the q-calculus is a natural calculus for Polymer Quantum Mechanics. Moreover, we show that the inequivalence of different superselected sectors of H Poly is of topological nature.

description: A quantum superposition of two coherent states of light with small amplitude can be obtained by subtracting a photon from a squeezed vacuum state. In experiments this preparation can be made conditioned on the detection of a photon in the field from a squeezed light source. We propose and analyze an extended measurement strategy which allows generation of high fidelity coherent state superpositions with larger amplitude.

description: In a dynamic nuclear polarization experiment on a 40 mM solution of 4-amino-TEMPO in a 40:60 water/glycerol mixture, we have observed that the bulk dipolar reservoir is cooled to a spin temperature of 15.5 micro-K, following microwave irradiation for 800 s. This is significantly cooler than the 35 mK spin temperature of the Zeeman reservoir. Equilibration of the two reservoirs results in a 50 % increase in the NMR signal intensity, corresponding to a Zeeman spin temperature of 23 mK. In order to achieve this polarization directly, it was necessary to irradiate the sample with microwaves for 1500 s. Cooling of the dipolar reservoir occurs during polarization transport through the magnetic field gradient around the paramagnetic impurity, and is rapidly communicated to the bulk by dipolar spin diffusion. As dipolar spin diffusion is significantly faster than Zeeman spin diffusion, the bulk dipolar reservoir cools faster than the Zeeman reservoir. This process can be exploited to rapidly polarize the nuclear spins, by repeatedly cooling the dipolar system and transferring the polarization to the Zeeman reservoir.

description: Earth science monitoring systems are distributed across Europe and the globe and measure the physicochemical characteristics of the planet under different geological regimes. The European Plate Observing System (EPOS) aims at creating a multidisciplinary pan-European data infrastructure for solid earth science to support a safe and sustainable society. In accordance with this scientific vision, the mission of EPOS is to integrate the diverse and advanced European Research Infrastructures for solid earth science relying on new e-science opportunities to monitor and unravel the dynamic and complex earth system. EPOS aims to enable innovative multidisciplinary research for a better understanding of the earth’s physical and chemical processes that control earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, ground instability and tsunami as well as the processes driving tectonics and earth’s surface dynamics. EPOS will improve our ability to better manage the use of the subsurface of the Earth. Through integration of data, models and facilities EPOS will allow the earth science community to make a step change in developing new concepts and tools for key answers to scientific and socio-economic questions concerning geo-hazards and geo-resources as well as earth sciences applications to the environment and to human welfare. EPOS brings together 24 European nations and combines national earth science facilities, the associated data and models together with the scientific expertise into a single e-infrastructure covering the whole geoscience domain and connects ten classes of geo-infrastructures, which have until now been handled separately, thus enabling an unprecedented level of scientific integration. This infrastructure will allow the earth sciences to achieve a step change in our understanding of the planet; it aims to enable us to prepare for geo-hazards and to responsibly manage the subsurface for infrastructure development, waste storage and the use of earth’s resources. With a European Research Infrastructure Consortium (ERIC) to be located in Rome (Italy), EPOS will provide an opportunity to maintain world-leading European earth sciences and represent a model for pan-European federated infrastructure currently being developed as ‘FAIR Principles’ for research data: Data should be Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Re-usable (FORCE11, Wilkinson et al. 2016).

description: Bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS) enhance both production of colony-stimulating factors (CSF) and proliferation of mononuclear phagocytes in vivo. The present study was undertaken to determine whether the effects of LPS on CSF-dependent monopoiesis are due solely to enhanced production of CSF or also to direct effects of LPS on the responding progenitor cell. Addition of LPS to CSF-stimulated macrophage populations had different effects, depending upon the concentration of CSF in the cultures. In the presence of optimal to supraoptimal concentrations of CSF, LPS at doses >/=0.01 mug/ml inhibited macrophage colony formation. This inhibitory activity was not due to cytotoxicity of the LPS and was not mediated through prostaglandin synthesis. In the presence of suboptimal concentrations of CSF, minute concentrations of LPS (10(-7) mug/ml) significantly enhanced macrophage colony formation. Both effects of LPS (inhibition and enhancement) appeared to be properties of lipid A since neither effect was noted with cells from LPS-resistant C3H/HeJ mice, whereas both effects could be neutralized by the addition of the antibiotic polymyxin B, which binds to the lipid A portion of LPS. These results suggest that the effects of LPS on monopoiesis in vivo may not be due solely to its capacity to stimulate production of CSF. Rather, LPS may be involved in stimulating monopoiesis both indirectly through stimulation of CSF production and by its effects on the CSF-responsive progenitor cell.

description: We present a case study of solar flare forecasting by means of metadata feature time series, by treating it as a prominent class-imbalance and temporally coherent problem. Taking full advantage of pre-flare time series in solar active regions is made possible via the Space Weather Analytics for Solar Flares (SWAN-SF) benchmark dataset; a partitioned collection of multivariate time series of active region properties comprising 4075 regions and spanning over 9 years of the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) period of operations. We showcase the general concept of temporal coherence triggered by the demand of continuity in time series forecasting and show that lack of proper understanding of this effect may spuriously enhance models' performance. We further address another well-known challenge in rare event prediction, namely, the class-imbalance issue. The SWAN-SF is an appropriate dataset for this, with a 60:1 imbalance ratio for GOES M- and X-class flares and a 800:1 for X-class flares against flare-quiet instances. We revisit the main remedies for these challenges and present several experiments to illustrate the exact impact that each of these remedies may have on performance. Moreover, we acknowledge that some basic data manipulation tasks such as data normalization and cross validation may also impact the performance -- we discuss these problems as well. In this framework we also review the primary advantages and disadvantages of using true skill statistic and Heidke skill score, as two widely used performance verification metrics for the flare forecasting task. In conclusion, we show and advocate for the benefits of time series vs. point-in-time forecasting, provided that the above challenges are measurably and quantitatively addressed.

Predicting individual differences in distractibility
Creators: name: Aks, Deborah June
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Little is known about what makes one individual distractible while another is not. This study approaches this problem by assessing the effectiveness of various personality, arousal, intelligence and subjective report variables as predictors of how one will respond to the presence of distractors during a speeded visual search task. The inability to screen out stimuli which are independent of the targeted task defines distractibility. The search task used here, involving item matching under speeded conditions, was administered to 308 subjects under visual and auditory distractor conditions. Each predictor of distractibility is treated as a separate subexperiment for purposes of clarity. Measures of state and trait arousal as well as subjective reports of distractibility were ineffective predictors of susceptibility to distractibility. The results were more encouraging for specific personality and intelligence variables which turned out to be effective predictors of distractibility. These findings indicate that the prototype of a distractible individual is one who tends to be higher in obsessive/compulsive and Type A behavior patterns and lower in intelligence.

description: Let $F$ be a smooth vector field defined in a neighborhood of the origin in $\mathbb{R}^n$, $F(O)=0$, and let $F_t$ be its local flow. Denote by $E$ the set of germs of diffeomorphisms $h:\mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}^n$ preserving orbits of $F$ and let $E_{\mathrm{id}}^r$ be the identity component of $E$ with respect to $C^r$-topology. Then every $E_{\mathrm{id}}^{r}$ contains a subset $Sh$ consisting of mappings of the form $F_{f(x)}(x)$, where $f: \mathbb{R}^n \to \mathbb{R}$ is a smooth function. It was proved earlier by the author that if $F$ is a linear vector field, then $Sh=E_{\mathrm{id}}^0$. In this paper we present a class of vector fields for which $Sh$ and $E_{\mathrm{id}}^1$ coincide on the level of $\infty$-jets. We also establish a parameter rigidity of linear vector fields and "reduced" Hamiltonian vector fields of real homogeneous polynomials in two variables.

Phase one of the research began with a scan of transit public-private partnerships in the United States using publicly available information from transit agency and government websites; public-private partnership databases; print and online documents such as academic manuscripts, government reports, and meeting minutes; and web resources such as news articles and reputable blogs. Data collection for phase two consisted of semi-structured interviews with relevant stakeholders, additional written materials from online sources, archival records, and documents shared by interview subjects that are not available to the public.
Interview subjects revealed new information about behind-the-scenes collaborations among project actors. While previous studies of public-private partnerships assume a dichotomy (either public or private), the data supports the use of four categories that further delineate among elites and the professional-managerial class in the public and private sectors.
This research proposes a typology of planned and pragmatic partnerships. The study also contributes a new classification of partners who organize themselves within the confines of a public-private partnership model to achieve neoliberal economic development goals by implementing new transit services. This classification underscores the multifaceted nature of public-private partnerships, involving a network of interconnected relationships spanning political, economic, and social spheres. Data presented in this study may prompt broader research into the role of public management, neoliberalism, and New Public Management in shaping transportation policies and practices.

description: Biological networks have evolved to be highly functional within uncertain environments while remaining extremely adaptable. One of the main contributors to the robustness and evolvability of biological networks is believed to be their modularity of function, with modules defined as sets of genes that are strongly interconnected but whose function is separable from those of other modules. Here, we investigate the in silico evolution of modularity and robustness in complex artificial metabolic networks that encode an increasing amount of information about their environment while acquiring ubiquitous features of biological, social, and engineering networks, such as scale-free edge distribution, small-world property, and fault-tolerance. These networks evolve in environments that differ in their predictability, and allow us to study modularity from topological, information-theoretic, and gene-epistatic points of view using new tools that do not depend on any preconceived notion of modularity. We find that for our evolved complex networks as well as for the yeast protein-protein interaction network, synthetic lethal pairs consist mostly of redundant genes that lie close to each other and therefore within modules, while knockdown suppressor pairs are farther apart and often straddle modules, suggesting that knockdown rescue is mediated by alternative pathways or modules. The combination of network modularity tools together with genetic interaction data constitutes a powerful approach to study and dissect the role of modularity in the evolution and function of biological networks.

title: Analyse der Beobachtungsergebnisse der astronomisch-geodätischen Längenbestimmung Borowiec - Dresden - Potsdam aus dem Jahre 1966

description: Es wurden die Ergebnisse der Zeitbestimmungen auf Homogenität der Gruppenvarianzen, Normalverteilung der Beobachtungen, Unterschiede für die Ausgleichungsverianten und systematische Abweichung der Ortssternzeiten der Haupt- und Parallelbeobachtungen untersucht. Nachdem die Einzelergebnisse der Längenbestimmung als zweiseitige L!ingenunterschiede und einseitige Längen gegen Greenwich berechnet waren, wurden verschiedene Verfahren (allgemeine arithmetische Mittelbildung, Verfahren der Regressionsanalyse nach SCHÄDLICH, "direktes" Verfahren nach RADECKI) angewandt, um Endergebnisse der Längenbestimmung zu erhalten. Diese wurden durch Vergleich eingeschätzt. Dann ergaben eich die definitiven Ergebnisse für die Längenunterschiede und Längen auf Grund der obenerwähnten Untersuchungen. Aus ihrem Vergleich mit den Ergebnissen früherer Längenbestimmungen (1903, 1929, 1960) folgte, daß keine systematischen Fehleranteile in den definitiven Längenunterschieden zu erkennen sind. Somit können die erhaltenen mittleren Fehler von ≤ 3,5 ms als wahre äußere Genauigkeiten betrachtet werden. Als Schlußfolgerung ergibt sich, daß auch die Beobachtungsergebnisse an Passageinstrument.en zum Studium rezenter horizontaler Erdkrustenbewegungen beitragen können.
description: The results of time determinations obtained at Borowiec, Dresden and Potsdam statione in 1966 were tested with reapect to homogeneity of group variances, normal distribution of observationa, differences for adjuatment variante, and ayatematic deviations between the local sidereal timea of principal and parallel observatiQns. After having calculated the individual results of longitude determination in terms of two-sided longitude differences and of one-sided longitudea referred to Greenwich, several methode (general arithmetic mean calculation, method of regreasion analysis by SCHÄDLICH, "direct" method by RADECKI) were employed to obtain final results of longitude determination. The latter were eatimated by comparison. The definitive results for the longitude differenees and the longitudes of the stations were obtained on the base o:f the above-mentioned examinations. These results were compared with previous measurements (1903, 1929, 1960). There do not seem to be any systematic deviations between the definitive longitude differences of the various measurements. Therefore, the obtained mean equare errors of ≤ 3,5 ms can be regarded as real external accuracies. The conciusion is drawn that observations performed by means of tranait instruments also can contribute to the investigation of recent horizontal crustal movements.

title: Untersuchungen über den Einfluß eines homogenen Magnetfeldes auf das orientierte Wachstum von Magnetit und Hämatit unterhalb der CURIE- bzw. NÉEL-Temperatur
Creators: name: Wäsch, Richard
Publisher: name: Zentralinstitut für Physik der Erde
Year: 1971

description: Am Beispiel des Magnetits und Hämatits wird der Einfluß eines homogenen Magnetfeldes auf Wachstum und Orientierung untersucht. Die Kristalle wurden mit Hilfe chemischer Transportreaktionen bei 500 °с und Feldstärken von О - 4000 Ое gezüchtet. Magnetfelder dieser Stärke üben auf Wachstum und Orientierung beider Mineralien keinen Einfluß aus. Die experimentellen Ergebnisse werden im Hinblick auf das magnetische Verhalten kleiner Teilchen diskutiert. Dabei zeigt sich, daß die Kristallite bereits fest auf eine Unterlage (Quarzglastrager bzw. Ampullenwand) aufgewachsen sind, wenn sie noch superparamagnetisches Verhalten zeigen.

description: In den Jahren 1967 und 1968 wurden in Riga und Sofia Simultanbeobachtungen des Satelliten "Echo 2" durchgeführt. Daraus wurde das Azimut des Verbindungsvektors zwischen diesen beiden Stationen nach einem schon früher veröffentlichten Verfahren der Stellartriangulation berechnet. Aus insgesamt 13 Simultanpaaren wurde ein mittlerer Azimutfehler von ± O28 erhalten. Bei einer Entfernung von 1600 km entspricht das einem relativen Fehler von 1 : 740 000.

description: Es wird die Eignung von Dreikomponentenregistrierungen kurz-, mittel- und langperiodischer Seismographen für eine Ortung teleseismischer Ereignisse untersucht. Aus dem umfangreichen statistischen Material lassen sich Korrekturen und Prognoseintervalle für Laufzeit-, Herdentfernungs-und -azimutbestimmungen aus Registrierungen der Station Moxa ableiten. Berücksichtigt man diese Ergebnisse, dann beträgt der mittlere quadratische Ortungsfehler für seismische Ereignisse mit Magnituden 5  <  MB  <  8 im Entfernungsbereich 10°  <  D  <  170° nur ca. 270 km. Aus den z. T. erheblichen signifikanten Abweichungen der beobachteten Laufzeiten, Herdentfernungen und –azimute gegen die theoretisch erwarteten Werte ergeben sich Schlußfolgerungen z. B. auf abweichende Wellengeschwindigkeiten im Reflexionsgebiet von PP bzw. auf mögliche Strukturanomalien im Krustenbereich der Station Moxa.

description: Η διατριβή εστιάζει στον προσδιορισμό και την ανάλυση βασικών σχεδιαστικών παραμέτρων του χώρου νοσηλείας οι οποίες μπορούν να συμβάλλουν στη δημιουργία του θεραπευτικού περιβάλλοντος και την ενίσχυση της φιλικής ατμόσφαιρας για τους ασθενείς κατά την παραμονή τους. Η έρευνα επικεντρώνεται στους παιδιατρικούς χώρους (παιδιατρικά νοσοκομεία και λοιπούς χώρους υγείας) τόσο μέσα από τη σύγχρονη βιβλιογραφία, όσο και μέσα από πρόσφατα κατασκευασμένα παραδείγματα (Case Studies) σε Ευρώπη και Ελλάδα. Τα παραδείγματα εξετάζονται μέσα από κάποια βασικά σχεδιαστικά κριτήρια σύμφωνα με τα οποία συντάσσεται μία πρόταση επανασχεδιασμού υφιστάμενης παιδιατρικής κλινικής (Σισμανόγλειο Νοσοκομείο Κομοτηνής). Επίσης, συμπεριλαμβάνονται προτάσεις για την επικαιροποίηση των ελληνικών ισχύοντων κανονισμών στους χώρους νοσηλείας παιδιών σύμφωνα με τα σύγχρονα πρότυπα του εξωτερικού. Σκοπός της παρούσας διδακτορικής διατριβής, είναι ο προσδιορισμός και η ανάλυση των σχεδιαστικών παραμέτρων που συμβάλλουν στη δημιουργία του θεραπευτικού περιβάλλοντος και της φιλικής ατμόσφαιρας ώστε ο χώρος νοσηλείας να επιδρά θετικά στον ασθενή ενισχύοντας την ψυχολογία και στοχεύοντας στην ταχύτητερη ανάρρωσή του.
description: This PhD thesis focuses on defining basic design parameters that can create a better healing environment and a friendlier atmosphere/ambience for children during their hospitalization. The research revolves around children's healthcare facilities (children's hospitals and other relative health facilities) using up to date bibliography and recently built Case Studies in Europe. The Case Studies were seen through some basic design parameters in order to confirm the bibliographic (theoretical) highlights. According to these design parameters, a redesign proposal of an existing children's clinic (in Sismanoglio General Hospital of Komotini) was attempted that aims in a better healing environment with friendly atmosphere for children. Also, comments and proposals for updating the existing Greek design regulations are made. The main purpose of the research is the definition and analysis of the design parameters that can help in the creation of the healing environment and the friendly atmosphere/ ambience for children during their hospitalization, in order to support their psychology and speed their recovery process.
