“…The Shelter Assessment Matrix (SAM) 7 scores the building physics and socio-psychological performance of a shelter according to construction, maintenance, comfort, sustainability, safety, hazards and design issues, from daylighting to privacy. The issues are grouped into nine design criteria and scored according to how well the shelter performs in the location and with the population in question.…”

“…This paper hopes to quantify the additional benefit of high mass solutions using a variety of methods, two specifically targeted at the aid sector: (i) short term monitoring of high and low mass shelters in Afghanistan and Lima, Peru, (ii) dynamic thermal simulation (EnergyPlus) to expand the monitoring results to cover a whole year, (iii) surveys of the occupants and the shelters, (iv) use of ShelTherm 7 – a thermal model specifically design for the aid sector, (v) use of the Shelter Assessment Matrix (SAM), 7 a tool designed to judge the suitability of shelters to a specific location and population, again targeted at the aid sector. The reason for including ShelTherm and SAM is to see if such tools might provide similar results without the need for monitoring, thermal simulation or the involvement of academics or professional engineers, and hence whether humanitarian agencies could investigate design alternatives in other settings.…”

Displaced populations are housed in various constructions, including lightweight predesigned structures. Theoretically, self-built heavyweight structures should ensure better temperatures and be closer to cultural norms. To examine this directly for the first time, lightweight pre-designed solutions are compared with high-mass self-built alternatives in Afghanistan and Peru, via monitoring, dynamic simulation, occupant surveys, the Shelter Assessment Matrix (SAM) and ShelTherm. Lightweight solutions increase peak summer temperatures, but only by 2°C, but reduce minimum temperatures by up to 5°C. Simulations only provided a qualitatively similar time series to the monitoring, because identical homes showed a large variance in temperatures. This questions the benefit of simulation compared to approaches which concentrate on whether shelters exacerbate or ameliorate external temperatures. In addition, a dwelling provides more than comfort, it supports family life, which is best addressed by tools like SAM, not thermal simulation. Hence it might be ideal to recommend high-mass self-build if possible, and to focus modelling efforts on qualitative aspects of simulation time-series, such as whether the building suppresses or exacerbates external conditions, and equally on psycho-cultural aspects. The term narrative modelling is introduced to describe this new approach which will be of direct benefit to the humanitarian community. Building simulation engineers have much to offer the humanitarian shelter sector, however they are not often brought into play in a disaster. Hence, we suggest a practical role they can take is in examining strategies before disasters and in creating knowledge or analysis methods that aid agency staff can apply on the ground. Here we showcase this approach. It is clear that although dynamic thermal simulation is highly useful, psycho-social aspects are equally important, thus engineers are likely to need to use tools that consider such aspects in order to maximize the usefulness of their conclusions.

The article discusses professional training in applied linguistics in the higher education system of Ukraine. Much emphasis is placed on the content characteristics of such training. Its aim is to analyze and justify the content of professional training in applied linguistics in the higher education system of Ukraine. As one can see, linguistic globalization and internationalization of applied linguistics, as well as the rapid development of ICT, create the need for specialists who can design effective algorithms and methods of processing automatic text, creating automated and machine translation technologies, conducting research activities related to the skillful use of information systems. In Ukraine, linguistics is viewed as a discipline studied within the framework of philology, rather than as an independent specialty/specialization, which, in turn, significantly slows down its development and narrows its scientific potential. The specialization «Applied Linguistics» reveals the specifics of linguistics/applied linguistics, updates current demands of science and helps adjust professional training in applied linguistics to relevant standards of leading countries. A detailed analysis of corresponding university curricula shows that the content of degree programmes in applied linguistics involves mastering natural-scientific, professional-practical, humanities-related and socio-economic courses, courses chosen by each university independently, as well as optional courses. The content of degree programmes in applied linguistics is structured based on linguistic, translation-oriented, literary and combined approaches. Further research lies in studying the features of blended learning in applied linguistics in the leading countries of Europe. Keywords: linguistics, philology, applied linguistics, professional training, higher education.
