Correlator for a Basis-Space Architecture Ultra-Wideband Receiver
… via traditional methods difficult. New receiver architectures have been proposed that rely on the correlation of the received signal and a set of basis functions to reduce the sampling requirement below Nyquist. Correlation is accomplished as the wide bandwidth received signal is projected over …

Rudolph M. Schindler : theory and design
… he regarded himself throughout his lifetime: as space architect. The notion of space-architecture was of intrinsic importance to Schindler, since for him architecture was not a question of style, but a question of space formed through materials. This contextual investigation of Schindler will …

relations
… of the relations we see, some of them we don't. Architecture is a synthesis of elements, relating to itself and to the outside. A challenge in this project lies in the recognition of the relationships which occur within the context and their translation into a form of architecture. I would like …

The Sacred Cycle -Architecture as a Vessel of Light and Spiritual Renewal
This thesis explores the integration of sacred space architecture with the symbolism of light and geometry to create a transcendent environment for reflection, healing, and spiritual awakening. Through precise sunpath alignments and the interplay of light and shadow, the design draws on the natural …

[tree-housed]: Seeking to synthesize two into one
… how they shape our appreciation of architectural spaces as we grow older. While our inherent bond with nature and trees remains strong, modern cities and crowded neighborhoods have gradually overshadowed the charming image of gardens next to homes. This study aims to revive the concept of the …

PRESERVING THE VIABILITY OF NUCLEAR COMMAND, CONTROL, AND COMMUNICATIONS IN THE MODERN AGE
… to NC3 were explored in the new domains of cyberspace and outer space, followed by an analysis of recent choices in the political sphere where misunderstandings of responsible deterrence put NC3 at heightened risk. Results include actionable items to ensure effective NC3 modernization. In …

A systematic approach for architecture-level energy estimation of accelerator designs
… the fast exploration of the accelerator design space, architecture-level energy estimators, which perform energy estimations without requiring complete hardware description of the designs, are critical to designers. However, it is difficult to use existing architecture-level energy estimators to …

A Network Communications Strategy for Planetary Habitats
The space industry is beginning to consider the design and construction of communication network infrastructures on planets beyond Earth. In approaching these design challenges, network managers should be involved in the architectural process to understand how such networks will be designed both …

Path place pause: re-establishing vibrancy and cultural identity in Pniël by redefining the square
… how a spatial framework can re-establish lost space, specifically around the connection between path and place within a specific environment, namely Pniël. The investigation stems from the disconnection between people passing through Pniël and their interaction with the space. People travelling …

An Urban Dwelling Place for Farmers
… dense urban fabric of Baltimore Maryland, architecture is explored. Utilizing form, order and space, architecture has a responsibility to construct the interalia or main theatre of human function. The architect has a fiduciary responsible to determine the design and purpose of the stage, …

Establishing A Crewed Presence On Titan
As humanity is going back to the moon, we have our sights set on Mars; after Mars the next stop is Saturn’s sixth moon, Titan. Designing a crewed mission to Titan requires taking advantage of newly proven technologies and larger payloads. What would normally take seven years with a Hohmann transfer …

Architecture for performance - exploring the relationship between architecture, dance and the city
… this investigation is the relationship between architecture and dance. The main concern is the challenge of translating dance to enhance architectural design, questioning how dance can inspire and unlock a potential in architecture through scale and movement of the body at various scales. Dance …

Experiencing the middle : an investigation into the experiential qualities of site, space and materials
… stems from an interest in the materiality of architecture and the "life-giving" characteristics that materials can have in capturing the character or essence of a place. As this interest has developed, I have simultaneously developed an appreciation for the phenomenological and sensorial …

The architecture of dependence : a digital entertainment entrepreneurship laboratory in the network economy
… an interesting challenge to the architect. Architecture must shift away from the design of singular buildings, and more towards the design of instances (nodes) on a network - and indeed, the design of that network itself. This entails redefining the role of the architect, to introduce the …

Quantifying flexibility in the operationally responsive space paradigm
Designing complex space systems that will deliver value in the presence of an uncertain future is difficult. As space system lifetimes are now measured in decades, the systems face increased risk from uncertain future contexts. Tradespace exploration increases the designer's system knowledge during …

Parametric Modeling of Deformable Linear Objects for Robotic Outfitting and Maintenance of Space Systems
Outfitting and maintenance are important to an in-space architecture consisting of long duration missions.During such missions, crew is not continuously present; robotic agents become essential to the construction, maintenance, and servicing of complicated space assets, requiring some degree of …
