Ljuset i tunneln : En studie i hur ljus och färg kan utformas, i syfte att erbjuda en tryggare känsla för fotgängare i befintliga gångtunnlar.

Jansson, Anna January 2017 (has links)
Många människor i dagens samhälle upplever att de känner sig otrygga när de rör sig i utvalda delar av staden. Detta är ofta platser som saknar tillräcklig ljussättning eller känns bortglömda i stadsrummet. En utav dessa platser är den miljö i stadens befintliga gångtunnlar som ibland inte används, på grund av personers rädsla för att vistas i dessa, trots att deras främsta syfte är just trygghet för fotgängare i stadsmiljöer. I denna studie undersöks hur ljus och färg kan användas som kommunikationsmedel, i syfte att skapa en tryggare känsla för användarna av dessa otrygga tunnlar. Arbetet har genomgått metoder som användarundersökning, intervju med sakkunnig och rumsliga observationer för att svara på forskningsfrågan. Teorier inom trygghetsfrämjande element har studerats, så väl som ljuset och färgens effekter på välbefinnande, samt kommunikativa förmåga. Ljuset i tunneln är ett examensarbete inom området för Informationsdesign och Rumslig gestaltning. Den slutgiltiga gestaltningen syftar till att informera de som arbetar med trygghetsarbete i form av ljus och färg, om vilka riktlinjer som bör finnas i åtanke i projektet, för att täcka användarna av dessa miljöers behov. / Many people in today’s society feel unsafe while walking in specific parts of a city. This may be the result in lack of lightning in these spaces, and it’s possible that these spaces don’t communicate a safe passage for the users.  This study aims to investigate how light and colour can be configured to communicate and conjure a safe passage through the experienced unsafe places. One of these unsafe places are pedestrian tunnels, who might not be used as thought, due to the anxiety of usage. Even thou these tunnels actually exist to bring safety to pedestrians in the city. This thesis has implemented through different methods such as user survey, interview with expertise, and spatial observation, in order to achieve new insight into this research. An already existing tunnel in Eskilstuna partly known for its lack of lightness, will serve as my case study for this Bachelor thesis in Information design, emphasis in Spatial design.

The use of highway crossings to maintain landscape connectivity for moose and roe deer

Olsson, Mattias January 2007 (has links)
<p>Increasingly wildlife managers and land managers are challenged to maintain the viability and connectivity among large mammal populations. Thus, it is important that effective highway crossings are identified and optimized with respect to construction cost, facilitation of ungulate movements, and ability to reduce wildlife-vehicle collisions. The use of exclusion fencing to reduce ungulate-vehicle collisions is commonly installed along Swedish highways. However, exclusion fences may pose a threat to the viability of wildlife populations because they serve as barriers to individual movements and may limit accessibility to resources. Various types of wildlife crossings intended to reduce road-kills and increase habitat connectivity across fenced highways have been constructed throughout the world. Previous studies have evaluated the importance of structure design and size for many ungulate species, but few studies involved moose (Alces alces) which is the target species for most large ungulate mitigations in Sweden. The results of the studies are intended to facilitate the development of wildlife crossings and conventional road passages to meet ungulate demands.</p><p>We monitored moose fitted with GPS radio collars and characterized their space and habitat use patterns in southwestern Sweden. Moose had seasonal differences in habitat selection within their home range, and generally preferred clear-cuts and early successional forest, boreal forest, and glades, but avoided agricultural areas and open water. We used infrared remote cameras, track surveys, and GPS telemetry to monitor the use of wildlife crossings and conventional road passages by moose and roe deer (Capreolus capreolus). The upgrading of a non-fenced road to a fenced highway with three wildlife crossings decreased the moose movements across the highway by 67-89 %. Overpass use by moose and roe deer declined with increased traffic volume on the highway and both species walked during periods of low highway traffic volumes and shifted to trotting as traffic intensity increased. Low rates of human disturbances and proximity to forest edges increased use of highway underpasses by roe deer. Moose used large underpasses to a higher degree than small.</p>

Zlepšení kvality mobility v přednádražním prostoru Brno – hlavní nádraží / Improving the quality of mobility in front of the Main Train Station in Brno

Ištvánková, Veronika January 2014 (has links)
This thesis deals with reconstruction in front of the main train station in Brno. The space is an important transfer terminal and there are hight intensity of pedestrians due to the fact the train station is next to this location. The pedestrians are chaotically moving in the examine space (especially in the location of crossway). The goals of the thesis are to improve the quality of mobility of pedestrians in this location, to ensure barrier – free access to public transport stops which are not ensured today and to reduce static and transit traffic that does not belong into this space.

Terminál Unkovice VRT / Railway Station Unkovice HSR

Machová, Petra Unknown Date (has links)
The objective of the diploma thesis is to design the layout of the railway station on the planned high-speed track Brno – Breclav. The thesis focuses on the station layout including the junction with a branch of high-speed track to Znojmo. New service road to railway station, connected to existing roads, is designed. The station layout design includes a carpark, bus stops, car rental, parking for the disabled, bikers, taxi services and cyclists.

Zvýšení bezpečnosti a plynulosti dopravy na I/43 Černá Hora - Sebranice / Safety and fluency increasing - road I/43 Černá Hora - Sebranice

Bažant, Petr January 2015 (has links)
A part of the road I/43 in the section between Černá Hora and Sebranice is the subject of diploma thesis. The output of thesis is to identify problematic parts of the safety and fluency of traffic and to propose appropriate measures. The road I/43 is very problematic and discussed of these aspects. Becouse of the character and the results of traffic accidents is called Highway of death. The thesis contains proposals of structural modification in selected problematic sections. These structural modifications are intended to increase the safety of traffic, but in order to limit of flow of traffic. Depending on the long-delayed contruction of expressway R43 is in order to make quick and effective increase the safety and the fluency of traffic counting with traffic intensity in the full range.

Rekonstrukce železniční stanice Svitavy / Reconstruction of Railway Station Svitavy

Marek, Josef January 2022 (has links)
The goal of this thesis was to design the reconstruction of the railway station Svitavy. The line speed was rised from the current value to 160 km·h-1. New platforms were designed, therefore the railway substructure and the drainage were adjusted accordingly. Also, the effective length of the main tracks was extended to 740 m.
