Extended magneto-hydrodynamic effects in indirect-drive inertial confinement fusion experiments
Creators: name: Walsh, Christopher
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: A 3-D extended-magnetohydodynamic code has been developed and applied to studying inertial confi nement fusion (ICF) implosions. The research is split into two areas: estimating the effect of magnetic fields spontaneously generated during standard experiments; understanding how externally applied magnetic fi elds could be used to impact fusion performance. Self-generated magnetic fields are estimated to reach 10,000T in the fuel of implosions on the National Ignition Facility (NIF). A combination of high and low modes are found to result in the greatest magnetisations, with the high-modes generating the large fields and the low-modes pushing these fields deep into the hot-spot core. Thermal conductivities are reduces to as low as 10% of the value used if magnetic fields are ignored, greatly moticvating the widespread use of magnetohydrodynamic codes for the design and post-shot analysis of ICF experiments. Intricate interplay between magnetic transport terms is also found, with both the Nernst term and Righi-Leduc heat-flow playing crucial roles. Nernst moves the magnetic fields towards the hot-spot edge, lowering magnetisations, while Righi-Leduc greatly reduces the thermal ablative stabilisation of the perturbations. Overall, hot-spot energy containment is found to be largely unchanged by the magnetic fields for the perturbation scenarious considered, although the hot-spot is more deformed. Previous work used 2-D simulations to predict that application of an external magnetic field would bring current high-performing NIF experiments into the ignition regime [1]. The enclosed research builds in this by investigating 3-D extended-MHD behaviour with realistic perturbation sources. Particular focus is given to the impact of magnetic fields on implosion symmetry. Thermal ablative stabilisation modifications dependent on the perturbation type are observed, as well as vortex stabilisation by magnetic tension and the first estimates for the consequences of Righi-Leduc, cross-gradient-Nernst and Biermann Battery terms. Validation of the model by comparison with direct-drive experiments [2,3] is also presented.

description: This paper reports results from an online survey on the impact of travellers' privacy and security attitudes and concerns on their willingness to use mobility-as-a-service (MaaS) systems. This study is part of a larger project that aims at investigating barriers to potential MaaS uptake. The online survey was designed to cover data privacy and security attitudes and concerns as well as a variety of socio-psychological and socio-demographic variables associated with travellers' intentions to use MaaS systems. The study involved $n=320$ UK participants recruited via the Prolific survey platform. Overall, correlation analysis and a multiple regression model indicated that, neither attitudes nor concerns of participants over the privacy and security of personal data would significantly impact their decisions to use MaaS systems, which was an unexpected result, however, their trust in (commercial and governmental) websites would. Another surprising result is that, having been a victim of improper invasion of privacy did not appear to affect individuals' intentions to use MaaS systems, whereas frequency with which one heard about misuse of personal data did. Implications of the results and future directions are also discussed, e.g., MaaS providers are encouraged to work on improving the trustworthiness of their corporate image.

Hybrid tissue surface shape measurement and hyperspectral imaging using a multispectral structured lighting endoscope
Creators: name: Lin, Jianyu
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: Surgical guidance and decision making could be improved with accurate measurement of intra-operative data including shape and hyper/multispectral information of the tissue surface. In this thesis, a dual-modality endoscopic system based on the structured light (SL) technique has been proposed to enable real-time tissue surface reconstruction and pixel-level dense multispectral imaging. The system is described in a chronological order of development for both the hardware and software aspects. Starting from the previously developed ICL SL system that enabled tissue surface shape measurement, a naive 3D reconstruction pipeline is described. This includes a SL system calibration method, normalized cut, and local rigid registration based pattern decoding algorithm. In order to enable a faster, denser, and more robust surface reconstruction, further hardware and algorithmic improvements have been proposed, including replacing the RGB camera with a multispectral camera and stroboscopically switching between white light (WL)/SL modes. Software improvements have allowed on-the-fly calibration and reconstruction, and improved accuracy through the integration of local normal information, the use of convolutional neural networks (CNN) based pattern decoding with a specially designed feature matching algorithm, and the combination of SL and structure-from-motion (SfM). The system has also been extended to enable sparse hyperspectral signal measurements, by integrating a slit hyperspectral camera. A CNN based model has been developed to estimate pixel-level dense multispectral images from RGB images and the captured sparse hyperspectral signals. The whole system has been validated using phantoms and ex vivo tissue, with in vivo demonstrations in a large animal trial and in patients, demonstrating its potential in real-world clinical applications.

description: Neutrosophy means the study of ideas and notions that are not true, nor false, but in between (i.e. neutral, indeterminate, unclear, vague, ambiguous, incomplete, contradictory, etc.).Each field has a neutrosophic part, i.e. that part that has indeterminacy. Thus, there were born the neutrosophic logic, neutrosophic set, neutrosophic probability, neutrosophic statistics, neutrosophic measure, neutrosophic precalculus, neutrosophic calculus, etc.There exist many types of indeterminacies – that is why neutrosophy can be developed in many different ways.
Conjugated materials containing dithienometalloles
Creators: name: Green, Joshua Paul
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: The development of new semiconducting conjugated polymers has been an important aspect of plastic electronics research since the early days of the field, as it allows the optoelectronic properties to be tuned for various applications. Dithienometalloles, which consist of a 2,2’-bithiophene fused with a bridging heteroatom, have been an important class of monomers for some time. The heteroatom serves an important role, both in holding the bithiophene unit rigidly coplanar and also in tuning the energetics of the system. In addition, these moieties often possess alkyl chains located on the bridging heteroatom that serve to confer solubility and processability to the final polymers. In this thesis we report the synthesis and properties of a number of dithienometallolecontaining polymers, in which the necessary solubilising groups have been moved from the bridging heteroatom to the adjacent thiophene backbone of the dithienometallole. This enabled the preparation of novel, soluble arsole-containing conjugated polymers. These dithienoarsole containing materials were used in both organic field effect transistors and organic photovoltaic devices, showing promising performances as well as significantly improved air stability over their phosphorus-containing analogues. The effect of changing the bridging heteroatom in dithienometalloles was also studied by comparing the optoelectronic properties and device performances of polymers with carbonyl, silicon, germanium, and nitrogen bridging groups. Finally, dithienopyrrole-based sensors were developed that showed substantial colour changes on exposure to basic solutions, as well as potential for use as readily dopable materials for electronic applications.

Evidence for a compact stellar merger origin for GRB 230307A from Fermi-LAT and multi-wavelength afterglow observations

description: GRB 230307A is the second brightest gamma-ray burst (GRB) ever detected over 50 years of observations and has a long duration in the prompt emission. Two galaxies are found to be close to the position of GRB 230307A: 1) a distant ($z \sim 3.87$) star-forming galaxy, located at an offset of $\sim 0.2\operatorname{-}0.3$ arcsec from the GRB position (with a projected distance of $\sim 1\operatorname{-}2 \, \rm kpc$); 2) a nearby ($z= 0.065$) spiral galaxy, located at an offset of 30 arcsec (with a projected distance of $\sim 40 \, \rm kpc$). Though it has been found that the brightest GRBs are readily detected in GeV emission by the Fermi Large Area Telescope (LAT), we find no GeV afterglow emission from GRB 230307A. Combining this with the optical and X-ray afterglow data, we find that a circum-burst density as low as $\sim 10^{-5} \operatorname{-} 10^{-4}~{\rm cm^{-3}}$ is needed to explain the non-detection of GeV emission and the multi-wavelength afterglow data, regardless of the redshift of this GRB. Such a low-density disfavors the association of GRB 230307A with the high-redshift star-forming galaxy, since the proximity of the GRB position to this galaxy would imply a higher-density environment. Instead, the low-density medium is consistent with the circumgalactic medium, which agrees with the large offset between GRB 230307A and the low-redshift galaxy. This points to the compact stellar merger origin for GRB 230307A, consistent with the detection of an associated kilonova.

Minimising systematic uncertainties in the T2K experiment using near-detector and external data
Creators: name: Wret, Carl Vincent Clarence
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: The Tokai to Kamioka (T2K) long baseline neutrino oscillation experiment was designed to make precise measurements of neutrino oscillations. It uses a muon (anti-)neutrino dominated beam produced at the Japan Proton Accelerator Research Complex (J-PARC) on the east coast of Japan, aiming towards the Super-Kamiokande (SK) detector 295 km west. The neutrino beam is sampled by the two near detectors ND280 and INGRID, 280 m downstream of production. These measure the neutrino flux and interaction cross-sections to reduce the impact of systematics for oscillation analyses. The work presented herein details the process of using ND280, INGRID, and external data to best constrain the predicted event rates at SK. The analysis proceeds by using a Markov Chain Monte Carlo method which simultaneously fits ND280 and SK data without assumptions on the underlying posterior probability density function. The two analyses detailed herein reduce event rate uncertainties at SK from 12-14\% to 2-4\%, enabling world-leading oscillation parameters to be extracted from T2K. Numerous run-by-run and detector-by-detector studies were performed and alternate models investigated, all of which were deemed compatible within uncertainty. This body of work has been included in the official T2K results presented in 2017 and 2018, and its use continues beyond that.

Representing air pollution in future energy scenarios
Creators: name: Arnold, Robert Thurston
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2019

description: Decarbonisation of a country’s energy system requires a change in energy supply chains, infrastructure and the introduction of new technologies. These lead to changes in the scale and type of combustion processes, the fuels used, as well as the activities required to supply fuels and operate energy infrastructure. They lead to changes in emission budgets of greenhouse gases and air pollutants that will have environmental and public health impacts. Such impacts can be highly dependent on the location and on the implementation of emerging energy technologies. This study compares the capabilities of tools for describing atmospheric emissions of air pollutants and greenhouse gases in future energy scenarios, for costing them and for cost-optimising deployment strategy. Case studies of technology choices for deploying decentralised CHP and for the uptake of hybrid vehicles are used to illustrate the challenges of representing emerging technologies in these models. The effectiveness of these technologies of reducing emissions budgets, together with synergies and antagonisms between delivering reductions in greenhouse gas emissions and air pollutant budgets are also explored. Recommendations are made on the using of incumbent models to assess air pollution, on the inclusion of novel technologies in energy scenarios and on how modelling systems might be better adapted to represent these. Spatial and temporal resolution are identified as key influences on models’ capabilities. In the hybrid vehicles case study, the precise technology options for vehicles – particularly hybrid powertrain architectures – is a key influence on optimising the benefits of atmospheric emissions reduction from future road transport. In the case of decentralised CHP, the surface morphology close to emission sources or in high population density areas will play a major role in impacts and costs of atmospheric emissions.

Modularity in a Connectionist Model of Morphology Acquisition

description: This paper describes a modular connectionist model of the acquisition of receptive inflectional morphology. The model takes inputs in the form of phones one at a time and outputs the associated roots and inflections. In its simplest version, the network consists of separate simple recurrent subnetworks for root and inflection identification; both networks take the phone sequence as inputs. It is shown that the performance of the two separate modular networks is superior to a single network responsible for both root and inflection identification. In a more elaborate version of the model, the network learns to use separate hidden-layer modules to solve the separate tasks of root and inflection identification.

Locally resolved adiabatic shear band formation in hexagonal close packed materials
Creators: name: Patten, Jack Richard William
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: This document will explain the process of developing systems and equipment to observe adiabatic shear bands as they form during experiments. This will involve explaining the scope of the problem which relies on the speed required to cause a system to effectively become adiabatic. The adiabatic nature of the deformation under shear loading at high rate is what allows the thermal softening to overwhelm strain and strain rate hardening. This requires a suitable test bed, and this thesis will explain the development of a suitable arrangement of a miniaturised Klosky Bar. This thesis will also explain a method of observing the deformation as it occurs, using a speckle pattern applied to a well-polished sample surface and digital image correlation to observe changes over the course of the experiment. This system needs a specific set of requirements be met for the sample so that shear bands can be preferentially formed in view of the imaging systems. The development of those samples is also explained. Additional methods of analysis are also preliminarily investigated, including x-ray phase contrast imaging and thermoreflectance temperature measurements. This thesis presents some of the results gathered during this investigation, conducted to attempt to find the ASB characteristics of Ti-6Al-4V. This project found the critical strain for as received Titanium-6- Aluminium-4-Vanadium is 0.25, and critical strain rate may be as low as 1x10^3, and showed that deformation through the shear region is not laminar. The directions this project’s work could then be taken is explained in the final section.

description: In this paper, we construct a simple model for the complex heavy quark potential which is defined through the Fourier transform of the static gluon propagator. Besides the hard thermal loop resummed contribution, the gluon propagator also includes a non-perturbative term induced by the dimension two gluon condensate. Within the framework of thermal field theory, the real and imaginary parts of the heavy quark potential are determined in a consistent way without resorting to any extra assumption as long as the exact form of the retarded/advanced gluon propagator is specified. The resulting potential model has the desired asymptotic behaviors and reproduces the data from lattice simulation reasonably well. By presenting a direct comparison with other complex potential models on the market, we find the one proposed in this work shows a significant improvement on the description of the lattice results, especially for the imaginary part of the potential, in a temperature region relevant to quarkonium studies.

description: An upper bound to the supernova relic neutrino background from all past Type II supernovae is obtained using observations of the Universal metal enrichment history. We show that an unambiguous detection of these relic neutrinos by the Super-Kamiokande detector is unlikely. We also analyze the event rate in the Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (where coincident neutrons from anti-nu_e + D --> n + n + e+ might enhance background rejection), and arrive at the same conclusion. If the relic neutrino flux should be observed to exceed our upper bound and if the observations of the metal enrichment history (for z<1) are not in considerable error, then either the Type II supernova rate does not track the metal enrichment history or some mechanism may be responsible for transforming anti-nu_{mu,tau} --> anti-nu_e.

Improved methods for functional neuronal imaging with genetically encoded voltage indicators
Creators: name: Quicke, Peter Ernest Hosking
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2019

description: Voltage imaging has the potential to revolutionise neuronal physiology, enabling high temporal and spatial resolution monitoring of sub- and supra-threshold activity in genetically defined cell classes. Before this goal is reached a number of challenges must be overcome: novel optical, genetic, and experimental techniques must be combined to deal with voltage imaging’s unique difficulties. In this thesis three techniques are applied to genetically encoded voltage indicator (GEVI) imaging. First, I describe a multifocal two-photon microscope and present a novel source localisation control and reconstruction algorithm to increase scattering resistance in functional imaging. I apply this microscope to image population and single-cell voltage signals from voltage sensitive fluorescent proteins in the first demonstration of multifocal GEVI imaging. Second, I show that a recently described genetic technique that sparsely labels cortical pyramidal cells enables single-cell resolution imaging in a one-photon widefield imaging configuration. This genetic technique allows simple, high signal-to-noise optical access to the primary excitatory cells in the cerebral cortex. Third, I present the first application of lightfield microscopy to single cell resolution neuronal voltage imaging. This technique enables single-shot capture of dendritic arbours and resolves 3D localised somatic and dendritic voltage signals. These approaches are finally evaluated for their contribution to the improvement of voltage imaging for physiology.

Adjoint-based mixing enhancement for binary fuids
Creators: name: Eggl, Maximilian
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2019

description: Mixing is a fundamental fluid process that dominates {a} great many natural phenomena and is present in a wide variety of industrial applications. Therefore, studying the characteristics and optimisation of this process may lead to a significant impact in many fields. This thesis presents an analytical and computational framework for optimising fluid mixing processes using embedded stirrers based on a non-linear direct-adjoint looping approach. The governing equations are the non-linear Navier-Stokes equations, augmented by an evolution equation for a passive scalar, which are solved by a Fourier-based spectral method. Stirrers are embedded in the computational domain by a Brinkman-penalisation technique, and shape and path gradients for the stirrers are computed from the adjoint solution. The relationship between this penalisation approach and the adjoint will be examined through the derivation of a dual system of equations, and three different optimisation scenarios of increasing complexity, each focusing on different optimisation parameters, are considered. Within the limits of the parameterisations of the geometry and the externally imposed bounds, significant improvements in mixing efficiency are achieved in all cases.

description: This study analyses the effects of observed preference for boys on Pakistani women’s participation in household decision-making. We find a significant association between female participation in various household decisions and their preference for boys. Bearing at least one son is associated with 5 per cent, 7 per cent, and 5 per cent higher say in decisions involving healthcare, social, and consumption matters, respectively. Women’s role in financial affairs, however, does not change significantly. Female participation in decision-making grows with the number of sons but only up to third parity. The improvement in female participation remains limited and decision- or context-specific.

First, we establish the off-diagonal exponential estimate for the generalized Bergman kernel. As an application, we obtain the relation between the generalized Bergman kernel on a Galois covering of a compact symplectic manifold and the generalized Bergman kernel on the base. Then we state the full off-diagonal asymptotic expansion of the generalized Bergman kernel, improving the remainder estimate known in the compact case to an exponential decay. Finally, we establish the theory of Berezin-Toeplitz quantization on symplectic orbifolds associated with the renormalized Bochner-Laplacian.

The search employs radiometry to sidereal-folded data in order to uncover persistent sources of gravitational waves with minimal assumptions about the signal model. The method complements continuous-wave searches, which are finely tuned to search for gravitational waves from rotating neutron stars while providing a means of detecting more exotic sources that might be missed by dedicated continuous-wave techniques. We apply the algorithm to simulated Gaussian noise at the level of LIGO design sensitivity. We project the strain amplitude sensitivity for the algorithm for a LIGO network in the first observing run to be $h_0 \approx 1.2 \times 10^{-24}$ ($1\%$ false alarm probability, $10\%$ false dismissal probability). We include treatment of instrumental lines and detector artifacts using time-shifted LIGO data from the first observing run.

description: In this work, we study effects of magnon interactions in the excitation spectrum of CoNb$_2$O$_6$ in the quantum paramagnetic phase in transverse field, where the $1/S$ spin-wave theory exhibits unphysical divergences at the critical field. We propose a self-consistent Hartree-Fock approach that eliminates such unphysical singularities while preserving the integrity of the singular threshold phenomena of magnon decay and spectrum renormalization that are present in both theory and experiment. With the microscopic parameters adopted from previous studies, this method yields a close quantitative agreement with the available experimental data for CoNb$_2$O$_6$ in the relevant regime. Insights into the general structure of the spin-anisotropic model of CoNb$_2$O$_6$ and related zigzag chain materials are also provided and a discussion of the effects of additional longitudinal field on the spectrum is given.

description: In this paper we propose a learning paradigm for the problem of understanding spoken language. The basis of the work is in a formalization of the understanding problem as a communication problem. This results in the definition of a stochastic model of the production of speech or text starting from the meaning of a sentence. The resulting understanding algorithm consists in a Viterbi maximization procedure, analogous to that commonly used for recognizing speech. The algorithm was implemented for building

A counterexample to a conjugacy conjecture of Steinberg

description: Let $G$ be a semisimple algebraic group over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p \geq 0$. At the 1966 International Congress of Mathematicians in Moscow, Robert Steinberg conjectured that two elements $a, a' \in G$ are conjugate in $G$ if and only if $f(a)$ and $f(a')$ are conjugate in $\operatorname{GL}(V)$ for every rational irreducible representation $f: G \rightarrow \operatorname{GL}(V)$. Steinberg showed that the conjecture holds if $a$ and $a'$ are semisimple, and also proved the conjecture when $p = 0$. In this paper, we give a counterexample to Steinberg's conjecture. Specifically, we show that when $p = 2$ and $G$ is simple of type $C_5$, there exist two non-conjugate unipotent elements $u, u' \in G$ such that $f(u)$ and $f(u')$ are conjugate in $\operatorname{GL}(V)$ for every rational irreducible representation $f: G \rightarrow \operatorname{GL}(V)$.

description: This study analyses the effects of observed preference for boys on Pakistani women’s participation in household decision-making. We find a significant association between female participation in various household decisions and their preference for boys. Bearing at least one son is associated with 5 per cent, 7 per cent, and 5 per cent higher say in decisions involving healthcare, social, and consumption matters, respectively. Women’s role in financial affairs, however, does not change significantly. Female participation in decision-making grows with the number of sons but only up to third parity. The improvement in female participation remains limited and decision- or context-specific.
Non-autonomous random dynamical systems: Stochastic approximation and rate-induced tipping
Creators: name: Hartl, Michael
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2019

description: In this thesis we extend the foundational theory behind and areas of application of non-autonomous random dynamical systems beyond the current state of the art. We generalize results from autonomous random dynamical systems theory to a non-autonomous realm. We use this framework to study stochastic approximations from a different point of view. In particular we apply it to study noise induced transitions between equilibrium points and prove a bifurcation result. Then we turn our attention to parameter shift systems with bounded additive noise. We extend the framework of rate induced tipping in deterministic parameter shifts for this case and introduce tipping probabilities. Finally we perform a case study by developing and applying a numerical method for calculating tipping probabilities and examining the results thereof.

description: It is the purpose of this paper to present a computational framework for reliably determining the frequency-dependent intermolecular and intramolecular NMR dipole-dipole relaxation rate of spin $1/2$ nuclei from MD simulations. The approach avoids alterations caused by well-known finite-size effects of the translational diffusion. Moreover, a procedure is derived to control and correct for effects caused by fixed distance-sampling cutoffs and periodic boundary conditions. By construction, this approach is capable of accurately predicting the correct low-frequency scaling behavior of the intermolecular NMR dipole-dipole relaxation rate and thus allows the reliable calculation of the frequency-dependent relaxation rate over many orders of magnitude. Our approach is based on the utilisation of the theory of Hwang and Freed for the intermolecular dipole-dipole correlation function and its corresponding spectral density [J. Chem. Phys. 63, 4017 (1975)] and its combination with data from molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The deviations from the Hwang and Freed theory caused by periodic boundary conditions and sampling distance cutoffs are quantified by means of random walker Monte Carlo simulations. An expression based on the Hwang and Freed theoryis also suggested for correcting those effects. As a proof of principle, our approach is demonstrated by computing the frequency-dependent inter- and intramolecular dipolar NMR relaxation rate of the $^1$H nuclei in liquid water at $273\,\mbox{K}$ and $298\,\mbox{K}$ based on simulations of the TIP4P/2005 model. Our calculations are suggesting that the intermolecular contribution to the $^1$H NMR relaxation rate of the TIP4P/2005 model in the extreme narrowing limit has previously been substantially underestimated.

description: The central issue in quantum parameter estimation is to find out the optimal measurement setup that leads to the ultimate lower bound of an estimation error. We address here a question of whether a Gaussian measurement scheme can achieve the ultimate bound for phase estimation in single-mode Gaussian metrology that exploits single-mode Gaussian probe states in a Gaussian environment. We identify three types of optimal Gaussian measurement setups yielding the maximal Fisher information depending on displacement, squeezing, and thermalization of the probe state. We show that the homodyne measurement attains the ultimate bound for both displaced thermal probe states and squeezed vacuum probe states, whereas for the other single-mode Gaussian probe states, the optimized Gaussian measurement cannot be the optimal setup, although they are sometimes nearly optimal. We then demonstrate that the measurement on the basis of the product quadrature operators XP+PX, i.e., a non-Gaussian measurement, is required to be fully optimal.

description: We argue that discourse plans must capture the intended causal and decompositional relations between communicative actions. We present a planning algorithm, DPOCL, that builds plan structures that properly capture these relations, and show how these structures are used to solve the problems that plagued previous discourse planners, and allow a system to participate effectively and flexibly in an ongoing dialogue.

description: Ο Κεραμεικός ήταν μία από τις σημαντικότερες ακραίες συνοικίες της αρχαίας Αθήνας. Το Θεμιστόκλειο Τείχος τον χώριζε σε δύο τμήματα, τον «Έσω» και τον «Έξω». Ο «Έξω» Κεραμικός αποτελούσε το νεκροταφείο της πόλης και ο «’Εσω» περιοχή κατοικίας και εμπορίου κεραμικών ειδών. Ήδη από την αρχαιότητα ο Κεραμεικός ήταν μία μεταβατική ζώνη μεταξύ του Άστυ και της υπαίθρου, σήμερα των δυτικών περιοχών της ευρύτερης Αθήνας.
Η παρούσα διπλωματική εργασία επιχειρεί να διαχειριστεί τρία επίπεδα σχεδιασμού. Το πρώτο, αφορά την συνάντηση της αρχαίας με την σύγχρονη πόλη μέσω συμβολικών, αλλά και χωρικών συνδέσεων. Το δεύτερο, επαναπροσδιορίζει την μετάβαση μεταξύ του πυκνοδομημένου αστικού ιστού με την συνοικία του Γκαζιού, εντείνει τις χωρικές συνδέσεις μεταξύ της περιοχής μελέτης με το αστικό συγκείμενο και τις θεάσεις με τα ιδιαίτερα χαρακτηριστικά του Αττικού τοπίου. Την ίδια στιγμή, επιχειρείται η δημιουργία της «Τρίτης» Πλατείας των Αθηνών (Πλατεία Κέκροπος) με στόχο την θεωρητική «ολοκλήρωση» του πολεοδομικού σχεδίου της πόλης, αλλά σημαντικότερα, την ανάδειξη του χαμένου αστικού χαρακτήρα του Κεραμεικού.
Το τρίτο επίπεδο, σχετίζεται με την αρχιτεκτονική κλίμακα του σχεδιασμού, προτείνοντας την ανάδειξη του Αρχαιολογικού Μουσείου του Κεραμεικού και την επέκτασή του, νότια αυτού. Η τοποθέτηση και ο σχεδιασμός του Μουσείου ενσωματώνει τις παραπάνω προθέσεις, αναθεωρεί την σχέση της νέας κατασκευής με το ιστορικό απόθεμα και προβάλλει την ικανότητα της αρχιτεκτονικής να επιλύσει αστικά ζητήματα.
