Culture and Sketching
This research investigates the influence of culture on sketching by comparing UK and Chinese designers. We employed a novel dual‐method approach: machine learning algorithms analyzed a dataset of 2,090 digitized sketches from student designers, while protocol analysis based on shape transformation rules examined the sketching processes of professional designers from both cultures. The machine learning analysis classified sketches by extracting re…
Feedback, experience, design – considering social cooperation in practice in transport policy
Feedback, experience, design – considering social cooperation in practice in transport policy: a reply to ‘From “I” to “we”: an exploration of how theories of cooperation might inform policymaking around sustainable travel behaviour’ by Brendan Donegan et al" published on 02 Oct 2023 by Bristol University Press
Measuring Mental Workload Variations in Office Work Tasks using fNirs
The motivation behind using physiological measures to estimate cognitive activity is typically to build technology that can help people to understand themselves and their work, or indeed for systems to do so and adapt. While functional Near Infrared Spectroscopy (fNIRS) has been shown to reliably reflect manipulations of mental workload in different work tasks, we still need to establish whether fNIRS can differentiate variety within common offic…
Physiological indicators of task demand, fatigue, and cognition in future digital manufacturing environments
As Digital Manufacturing transforms traditionally physical work into more system-monitoring tasks, new methods are required for understanding people’s mental workload and prolonged capacity for focused attention. Many physiological measures have shown promise for detecting changes in cognitive state, and recent advances in sensor technology offer minimally-invasive ways to monitor our cognitive activity. Previous research in functional near-infra…
The experience of couples being given an oxygen concentrator to use at home
This longitudinal study explores the lived experience of four couples where one person from each couple is prescribed an oxygen concentrator to use at home. Transcripts were analysed using interpretative phenomenological analysis. The findings reported here focus on two super-ordinate themes: 'the journey of acceptance' and 'negotiating changing relationships'. Participants described a gradual process of accepting the device into their lives, the…
The 24-hour City
The concept of the 24-hour city evokes vibrancy and a dynamic that suggests the harmonious coexistence of mixed land uses which might otherwise be considered improbable neighbors. In reality we see a 24-hour city full of diverse uses, needs and requirements, potentially at odds with one another. This paper addresses a gap in the literature on sensory cities by providing an interpretation of the city with reference to residents' sensorial experien…
