The Analysis of Community Health Centers in terms of Spatial Configuration, Spatial Allocation, and Organizational Constructs
… Community Health Centers (CHCs) in terms of spatial configuration, spatial allocation, and their relationships with different organizational constructs. The focus of spatial configuration analysis is visibility and accessibility; the focus of spatial allocation analysis is the amount of space …

Towards a space/nature syntax : the influence of spatial configuration and a view of nature on social interaction, with Arcosanti, Arizona, USA, as case study
… and quantitative relationships between spatial configuration, visual connectivity to Nature and observed social Interactions were produced. The main findings support a relationship between spatial configuration and both Passive Interaction with Space and Spontaneous Use of Space, echoing …

Neurale Grundlagen zeitlicher und räumlicher Aufmerksamkeitsprozesse für komplexe, objektbezogene Handlungen
… to investigate the neural mechanisms underlying spatial and temporal attention for complex, objectrelated actions as well as their role for development of apraxic symptoms after unilateral brain damage. Two experiments were conducted. In the first experiment, using fMRT, brain regions responsible …

Infinity and experience
… a "coherent" rather than an "incoherent" spatial configuration, and furthermore, that if we obtain evidence that a picture represents a coherent spatial configuration, we thereby obtain evidence that the depicted object could exist. I then use this "picture method" to show that by seeing a …

Medborgardygd : Den europeiska staden och det offentliga rummets etos
… civic virtues. The phenomenon also has specific spatial characteristics. In the spatial configuration of the city, in the morphology of the city and the “grammar” of public spaces—of streets, squares and buildings—we find the physical environment of civic interaction. In the city we find places …

Assessing Spatial Orientation Skills in Athletes After Sustaining a Concussion: A Pilot Study
… map formation and use a modified version of the Spatial Configuration Task (m-SCT), a computerized tool that has been shown to quantitatively measure an individual’s ability to form and use cognitive maps (Burles, 2014), was administered to a group of 18 adolescent hockey participants suffering …

Remote sensing characterisation of the forest-tundra ecotone
… FTE delineation, FTE categorisation based on the spatial characteristics of the interface, and the investigation of the relationship between FTE dynamics and spatial configuration in the circumarctic region. FTE delineation is conducted using an image texture-based classification scheme developed …

Tactile perception of spatially distributed vibratory stimuli on the fingerpad
… frequency ranges of each mechanoreceptor. The spatial acuity decreased as the frequency of the stimuli increased when the stimuli presented by the equal number of contactors. As an analogy between color vision and tactile perception, a spatial configuration of the multiple contactors was …

The spatial and institutional factors of knowledge production at MIT
… including institutional affiliation and spatial configuration, over a 10-year time span. There are four significant results: 1. diverging trends in the composition of collaborative teams over time (size, faculty versus non-faculty, etc.) between papers and patents; 2. patterns of …

Mechanistic studies of photo-induced proton-coupled electron transfer and oxygen atom transfer reactions in model systems
… (PT) to electron transfer (ET) depends on their spatial configuration, thus model PCET systems must control both. Noncovalent amidinium-carboxylate PT interfaces are used assemble an electron D/A pairs (D = donor, A = acceptor), establishing uni-directional ET and PT coordinates. A highly …

City Living: Exploring the Modern Rowhouse Typology
… was established by certain characteristics of spatial configuration, constructional methods and ordering systems that kept the building economical. Popular attempts to accommodate modern needs into these buildings have lead to implementing the "open-plan" concept and creating a series of floors …

Using Visual Abstractions to Improve Spatially Aware Nominal Safety in Autonomous Vehicles
… paper proposes expanding the concept to include spatial configurations formed by obstacles with respect to the ego-vehicle. By analyzing these spatial relationships, including proximity, density and arrangement, this research aims to demon- strate how these factors influence the safety force …

Void Ecologies: Resistance, Commoning and Pleasure in the Discard Space
… spaces (or spaces left “outside systems of spatial configuration and signification” (Dibazar 2016, 212) and practices of re-commoning (or reclaiming resources) that address environmental, racial and gendered injustices. I examine discard spaces as heterotopias according to David Harvey’s …

Ecological and Cognitive Influences on Orangutan Space Use
… using route-based cognitive maps for encoding spatial information. However, little is known about factors that influence where such route networks are established. Recent evidence of habitual route networks in wild orangutans makes them ideal candidates for examining factors that affect the …
