A majority of human beings live in cities, half of them in cities of less than 500.000 inhabitants, and around I billion of dwellers live today in slums (meaning 25% of urban residents in the global South). Having these numbers in mind, the main question f ...
In the last ten years, new sources of urban big data have made it possible for algorithms to increasingly control how the city is perceived, understood and managed by its inhabitants; this is the data-driven city.
New efforts in the social sciences, like ...
In light of the Paris Agreement’s objectives and the related European and Swiss goals of decarbonising the built environment, the importance, relevance, and potential benefits of integrating Building-Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) within building renovatio ...
The urban context is often simplified or neglected in Building Energy Models (BEMs) due to the difficulties of taking accurately into account all the heat fluxes emanating from the environment. Oversimplifying the urban context can impact the accuracy of t ...
About 20 years after CIAM 2, themes of minimum dwelling for working class were put into large-scale practice for building welfare state and social democracy in all countries that participated in the Marshall Plan and postwar phenomena of transnational and ...
The study of regional trends in the rural-urban fertility gradient helps us to understand the pace of completion of the fertility transition and the geography of urban growth in the global South. We question whether the hypothesized inverted U-shaped evolu ...
Increased use of solar collectors in buildings is necessary but poses major challenges in existing built environ ments, especially where architectural quality is an issue. The large size of solar systems at the building scale requires careful planning, as ...
In the context of the energy transition, the optimization of building envelopes plays a substantial role in reducing global energy consumption and meeting climate targets. Now, a dynamic photovoltaic building envelope has been demonstrated to improve build ...
Currently our world is becoming increasingly urban, with around 50% of its population living in cities. Whereas cities produce 80% of the worldwide GDP and are places with high innovation, they also consume 75% of worldwide resources and produce 80% of CO2 ...
Rapid urbanization, climate change, sustainable development, resource depletion, the widespread use of the Internet and mobile phones, and the big data phenomenon all pose great challenges to urban planning. By facilitating data exchange, collection, and a ...
