Show moreThe project is a revitalization and life center for people and their families living with diabetes. The goal of the facility is to provide a place to escape from everyday living. Elements to improve the knowledge and livelihoods of individuals who have been diagnosed with the disease will be implemented allowing the project to become a central node. Creating an environment that promotes relaxation and revitalization within an urban context is of great importance to the project. Partnerships with relative medical facilities will establish a client base and ease the access to the facility. If used successfully, the project could be a cornerstone to multiple facilities across the country.

Title: RE-POSITIONING THE CHICAGO BOULEVARD SYSTEM: TOWARDS THE DEFINITION OF AN ACTIVE URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE

Show moreHow can urban infrastructures be reinterpreted based on their social potential? The thesis discusses the value that infrastructures can have in relation to mobility and quality of life, in the context of the urban project, and proposes an example of how underutilized spaces, that pertains to an outdated model of the city, can be re-configured as adaptable and dynamic infrastructures. The Boulevard System of Chicago emerged during the process of “beautification” that the “City Beautiful” movement fostered in the 19th century. From being the “Emerald Necklace”, as it was known, the Boulevard System became today a fragmented infrastructure that mirrors the socio-economic segregation of Chicago neighborhoods. Within the archipelago of different urban realities of the city, the Boulevard System represents today an under-utilized urban space that reinforces the already existing urban thresholds between different urban communities. The goal of the research is to re-think the Boulevard System as a new transportation corridor, able to interact with other urban systems. The proposal for the boulevards is part of an Infrastructure Plan for Chicago that aims to propose ways inwhich different actions on infrastructure can revitalize the City. The idea is to re-activate the boulevard through a series of interventions, articulated around the re-connection of the fragmented system, as a new “ring” infrastructure, and the engagement with the surrounding specificities. The proposed Bus Rapid Transit system should offer an experience through the parks in Chicago and support its reactivation through the promotion of activities and events. Furthermore, the creation of a hub around the Garfield Green Line station is meant to propose a more engaging transit experience around the city of Chicago.

Show moreThe Autonomous Drone can be economically one of the effective and efficient tools for disaster management. In this research, for disaster relief operations, Autonomous Drone Architecture with wireless network provides disaster assistance by tracking a survivor and getting important information from multiple sensors on it. [1] ADWN architecture consist of two different platforms, Raspberry pi and Arduino, to separate their roles of the process, which are like collecting the sensor data and sending control signal from Raspberry Pi to Arduino. Once gathering data from sensors and transmitting it to Raspberry Pi, it can analysis by applying signal processing formula in real-time. [2] In this case, Raspberry Pi can multitask process and use various language libraries such as OpenCV, Python, and others. Also, Raspberry Pi can add lots of sensors, a camera, and other kinds of boards. Using these features, transmitted data can be processed in real-time and be sending to Arduino to control with reduced error. These strength of ADWN architecture provides scalability and high availability to control drone as a disaster assistance.
