Sustainable Small House Project, Mollie Jo George
Sustainable Small House Project, Mollie Jo George
UNO Student Research and Creative Activity Fair
The Sustainable Small House Project was developed in cooperation with UNO/UNL Engineering, UNO Gerontology, and Metro Community College. This project merges both sustainable living with the small house movement to promote aging-in-place for older adults. This presentation describes the journey of Dr. Bing Chen as he envisioned the Sustainable Small House Project to its development and finally to implementation at its current location--west of Baxter Arena or adjacent to the UNO ballfield.
From a gerontological lens, the project focuses on principles of universal design which allows for aging-in-place, fall-detection and prevention using smart technologies such as Nobi, and voice-activated technologies …
Evolving Efficient Floor Plans For Hospital Emergency Rooms, Alex Ramsey
Evolving Efficient Floor Plans For Hospital Emergency Rooms, Alex Ramsey
Theses/Capstones/Creative Projects
Genetic Algorithms find wide use in optimization problems across many fields of research, including crowd simulation. This paper proposes that genetic algorithms could be used to create better floor plans for hospital emergency rooms, potentially saving critical time in high risk situations. The genetic algorithm implemented makes use of a hospital-specific crowd simulation to accurately evaluate the effectiveness of produced layouts. The results of combining genetic algorithms with a crowd simulation are promising. Future work may improve upon these results to produce better, more optimal hospital floor plans.

Mandela Splash Pad Pre-Construction Plan, Levi Sandbulte
Mandela Splash Pad Pre-Construction Plan, Levi Sandbulte
Theses/Capstones/Creative Projects
In the construction industry, it is the responsibility of the general contractor to take the architect’s ideas and turn it into a real building. Many times this requires ample communication and several drafts. This efficient execution of this process is vital to the completion of a successful project. In this project, I practice this communication process. The challenge presented by the owner is to build an affordable splash pad, and without impacting the construction schedule of the Early Childhood Development Center (ECDC) that is being built on the same property at the same time. This proposal gives the owner a …
Application Of Effective Noise Control Strategies In Speech Perception Testing Rooms, Samuel H. Underwood
Application Of Effective Noise Control Strategies In Speech Perception Testing Rooms, Samuel H. Underwood
Theses/Capstones/Creative Projects
This project examines experimental methodologies, common test practices, and identifies relevant acoustic metrics to determine effective noise control parameters and strategies for implementation in a new speech perception testing room in Lincoln, Nebraska. The nature of speech perception testing demands that the experiment facility be as quiet and non-disruptive as possible to ensure that auditory stimuli is not interfered with. Influences of ambient acoustic conditions, like background noise and reverberation time, interfere with speech perception testing by introducing new variables that are often difficult to account for if left uncontrolled. A room-in-room chamber (sound booth) is often a best-case practice …

Weitz Cec Art Viewbook, Weitz Cec
Programs and Brochures
This brochure lists art purchased through the building fund or donated to the Weitz CEC. The core collection was acquired through a competitive process open to UNO faculty, staff, students, and local area artists. A committee comprised of art and design professionals and university volunteers selected works that represent both the individual artist’s interpretation of the Weitz CEC vision and the collective talent of Omaha’s vibrant visual arts community.

Architectural Designs, H. D. Frankfurt
Digitized Books
The designs shown in this book have been selected from work designed and planned by H. D. Frankfurt, Architect.
It was the publisher's aim to place before the public a high class book, showing modern and artistic buildings of various classes, which show the different styles of architecture, treated in different ways, and to suit various circumstances, as each individual location has its peculiarities and necessitates an entirely different class and design of building.
With the sixteen years of practical experience and technical training Mr. Frankfurt has had, the Architectural Department of Hastings & Heyden hope to give its clients …
