Dans une situation où le logement est un outil indispensable pour venir en aide à la personne sans-abri, le présent travail propose une analyse de divers logements en région liégeoise, afin d’en comprendre le fonctionnement ainsi que d’en extraire les points positifs et négatifs. À travers une approche spatiale et architecturale des logements, le but est d’interroger le rôle de l’architecte. Finalement, ce mémoire proposera une projection des tendances à venir en matière de logements pour sans-abri, ainsi que les missions architecturales qui s’y rattachent.

Cette étude examine les pratiques inclusives des entreprises de grande distribution en Belgique concernant les femmes voilées. L’objectif principal est de décrire les pratiques actuelles, d’analyser les facteurs organisationnels et contextuels influençant leur mise en œuvre, et d’évaluer l’efficacité de ces pratiques à travers les concepts de justice organisationnelle et d’intersectionnalité.

Les résultats montrent que certains magasins appliquent des pratiques inclusives telles qu’un recrutement neutre et une considération des compétences professionnelles, indépendamment de l’identité des employés. Des sanctions sont également en place pour assurer le respect des règles inclusives. Ces pratiques mettent en lumière les efforts pour créer un environnement de travail respectueux et équitable.

Fused deposition modelling (FDM) is a type of additive manufacturing that constructs an object layer-by-layer by extruding molten material on a build plate. Due to its cost effectiveness and short time-to-market, the market and applications for this technique are expanding. Replacing the extrusion process with FDM to make PVC window profiles is interesting when only a limited number of profiles have to be produced. However, FDM is not yet suitable for widely consumed polymers such as polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Therefore, this master’s thesis tries to develop a new PVC compound for FDM to produce more customized window profiles and investigates which requirements have to be met by a PVC compound to be printable. This master’s thesis constructs a screening method to evaluate the printability of PVC compounds. Nine PVC compounds provided by Kaneka are investigated throughout this master’s thesis. The method is based on three criteria that have to be fulfilled by the materials before they can be considered as printable. The first criterion includes the viscosity of the compounds. The viscosity has to be sufficiently low to be able to extrude the material from the nozzle of the FDM printer. The second criterion looks at the thermal stability of PVC compounds. Heat stabilizers are added to the compounds to improve this property because they normally discolor and degrade easily. The last criterion comprises the mechanical properties of the printed PVC compounds. The mechanical properties of the FDM printed PVC objects and extruded PVC products have to be similar. This strength is dependent on the layer adhesion of the printed objects. From this method, it can be concluded that the investigated PVC compounds do not meet the requirements to be considered printable. The viscosity is already acceptable and the thermal stability is also going in the right direction for multiple samples but the investigated compounds fall short on mechanical properties. One sample shows the most promising properties, although even for this sample the mechanical properties still have to be improved significantly before FDM will be able to replace the extrusion process in the production of window profiles.
