Rethinking Vertical Living
I have always been fascinated by vertical living, especially in the dense Urban context. I wonder how families become neighbors and create a sense of neighborhood when under a single roof in a multifamily/ multi storied housing complex. Whereas the building also serves the various amenities to its …

Vertical transport evacuation modelling
… station, occupants often heavily rely on vertical transport devices (e.g. escalators, lifts, etc) to travel vertically between levels. Typically such devices provide a faster and more comfortable means to travel than the equivalent stairs. Such devices also provide an additional means for …

Vertical School of Art
Vertical Buildings (skyscrapers) challenge our perception of space, our perception of scale, our idea of movement, they challenge the way we live. Currently urban cities are becoming more and more dense. Lack of space is a big issue and now buildings are being torn down and are replaced by …

The vertical-mill stage : design of a vertical movement stage for surface machining
… goal of this project is to design a machine for vertical axis movement which can be measured and controlled. The key issues addressed in this thesis, are the motion past obstacles in the extrusions, a lightweight mechanism that is stiff with minimal horizontal deflections, can adjust to different …

An examination of vertical territorial and vertical price restraints under the outlets hypothesis
… Court decision. The Court has however, afforded vertical territorial restraints the protection of the rule of reason. A growing body of economic literature has proposed numerous pro-competitive uses of RPM by manufacturers. In addition, the literature indicates that vertical territorial and …

Air entrainment in vertical dropshafts
… into the phenomenon of air entrainment in vertical dropshafts conveying water from a high level to a lower level. The study initially commenced with hydraulic tests on scale models of a vortex-entry dropshaft arrangement. This subsequently expanded into a more detailed analysis of the …

Vertical cavity surface emitting lasers.
Vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL) structures have been grown by both metal-organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD) and molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). These incorporate 3 strained InGaAs / GaAs quantum wells placed resonantly in a two wavelength long optical cavity, formed between …

Vertical Structure of Propagating Features
… contribution of the propagating features in the vertical structure of the temporal-spatial evolution in the western boundary 26.5 ?N Atlantic. There is great prospect in using altimetry observations to reflect and infer the variability throughout the water-column - an effort vital in future …

Multiphase Flows In Vertical Pipelines
… techniques of two-phase flow modeling through vertical pipelines under varying flowrate and pressure boundary conditions are illustrated. Numerical modeling is elaborated by discretizing the space and time scale and evaluating the flow physical variables’ dynamics along the pipe. The employed …

Soil improvement by vertical drains
Vertical drains are used in soft clays and silts to accelerate primary consolidation. In this study a practical method for predicting the magnitude and rate of settlement and pore water pressure dissipation of soft clays under embankment type of loading is described. A computer procedure, ILLICON, …

Vertical axis wind turbine acoustics
… quickly to changing wind conditions, small-scale vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) have been proposed as an efficient solution for deployment in built up areas, where the wind is more gusty in nature. If VAWTs are erected in built up areas they will be inherently close to people; consequently, …

Vertical Integration in Commercial Fisheries
Vertical integration has received much attention in the last 25 years and there are well-known theories that explain this behavior. However, the one common thread that runs through virtually all of this research is the assumption of private property rights. Very little attention has been paid to …
