Hi
Has Khaisri published some of her work some places? I have some students who are interested on railway stations and any other references would be great. Thanks a lot in advance.
Kind regards Akkie J

i磀 would also be very interested in getting hold of a copy of this PHD as i work in the field of transport infrastructure, perhaps it could help throw some light onto the subject. you磀 be surprised how completely uninformed people working in this industry are, not to mention government officials.
I磛e been following the this mailbase for a couple years. apologies for not being able to contribute academically but the conversations have really improved the quality of projects i磛e been involved in. my copy of the social logic of space is well thumbed!
cheers.

One important thing for you to read is the PhD thesis of Khaisri Paksukcharern submitted to the University of London in 2002. This is a study of how rail transit stations become urban places, and includes detailed studies of pedestrian movement around all 11 London rail termini.
Khaisri ? - Bill

Hello,
I've just joined the list so I hope it's not rude to post without a good
amount of lurking first :)
As part of my PhD work I've been looking at the flow of people around the rail transit station area.
I'm interested in the relationships between patterns of lan use and pedestrian movement.
However I've had only a little bit of a look at some space syntax stuff. Thus I'm interested to
know of any space syntax-related publications people here might know
of/have authored which may have particular relevance in understanding the
flow of people through public spaces .
For my PhD , I am very interested in reading the following 5 papers. I have looked for them, but have not found any digital access unfortunately.
Penn, Alan and L Vaughan (1995) 'Pedestrian movement and spatial design' from Passenger Terminal '95, UK and International Press, Dorking, 1995, 122-125.
Hillier, Bill (1991) 'A Brief Lesson in the Principles of Urban Layout Using Space Syntax', Space Syntax Laboratory document
Stonor, Tim, 'Auf die Methode kommt es an: Space Syntax' (Space Syntax - a methodical approach) in Topos, Issue 25, December 1998
Major, MD, T Stonor and A Penn (1998) 'Passengers, Pedestrians and Shoppers: Space Syntax in Design' in Passenger Terminal World, April 1998
Major, MD (1998) 'Seeing and Understanding: Observing Space Use and Movement in Our Cities', Paper given to the Winterschool 98, Sheffield, England, 5-9 January 1998
Any help much appreciated.
Thanks.
