Abstract

Das Basler Büro Steinmann & Schmid zählt zu den jungen Schweizer Büros, die sich überregional einen Namen gemacht haben. Die Umgestaltung des Bahnhofsquartiers und der Neubau des Bahnhofs in Visp, der nach der Eröffnung des Lötschberg-Basistunnels 2007 für den Nord-Süd-Verkehr in der Schweiz und in Europa eine zentrale Bedeutung als Hauptverkehrsknotenpunkt erlangt hat, ist ihr bisher größtes Projekt. Das Buch zeigt neben zahlreichen Bildern und Plänen des neuen Bahnhofsgebäudes, das im Dezember 2007 nach achtjähriger Planungs- und Bauzeit in Betrieb genommen wurde, den Entstehungsprozess dieses im Oberwallis einmaligen Großprojekts. Im Kontext des Bestandes und der städtebaulichen Situation werden Entwurfs- und Bauprozess, das fertige Gebäude von innen und außen sowie seine Auswirkungen auf das Quartier anhand von Skizzen, Planmaterial und Fotografien auf ebenso informative wie attraktive Weise präsentiert und analysiert.

Abstract

"More than a century before airlines placed it at the center of their systems, Chicago was already the nation's transportation hub -from Union Station, passengers could reach major cities on the Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts as well as countless points in between. Chicago's history is tightly linked to its railroads. Railroad historian Fred Ash begins in the mid 1800's, when Chicago dominated Midwest trade and was referred to as the "Railroad Capital of the World." During this period, swings in the political climate significantly modified the relationship between the local government and its largest landholders, the railroads. From here, Ash highlights competition at the turn of the twentieth century between railroad companies that greatly influenced Chicago's urban landscape. Profiling the fascinating stories of businessmen, politicians, workers, and immigrants whose everyday lives were affected by the bustling transportation hub, Ash documents the impact Union Station had on the growing city and the entire Midwest. Featuring more than 100 photographs of the famous Beaux-Arts architecture, Chicago Union Station is a beautifully illustrated tribute to one of America's overlooked treasures."--Provided by publisher.

Abstract

t wordt meer en meer als big business aanzien in de sportwereld, aangezien er veel geld mee gemoeid is. Daardoor krijgt de zoektocht naar blessurepreventie heel veel aandacht. Een splint kan hiervoor een mogelijke oplossing bieden. In deze bachelorproef wordt onderzoek gedaan naar prestaties, ademhaling, bescherming, ideale dikte van een splint en symmetrie gangpatroon. Methode: Om tot de resulaten van dit onderzoek te komen, wordt gebruik gemaakt van een systematisch literatuuronderzoek (SLO). Na het lezen van de artikels en het uitvoeren van de PEDro-schaal, waarbij de artikels minstens een 7/11 score behaalden, beslisten we om 15 wetenschappelijk onderbouwde artikels op te nemen in onze literatuurstudie. Resultaten: Een splint blijkt, uit verschillende wetenschappelijke artikels, een postieve invloed te hebben op prestaties, ademhaling, bescherming en symmetrie. Ook spreken sommige artikels elkaar tegen meer bepaald naar de krachtontwikkeling toe. Conclusie: Na het lezen van onze literatuurstudie kan er besloten worden dat het dragen van een splint een positief effect teweeg brengt bij sporters op vlak van prestatie, ademhaling, bescherming en symmetrisch gangpatroon. ?
