The role played by international migration and its interactions with other demographic components in the process of city growth remains underappreciated. We analyze trends in natural increase and in net internal and international migration in Zurich during ...
Energy demand for cooling of buildings is projected to drastically increase in the next decades. Urban areas in tropical Asia are expected to contribute a major share to this growing demand. These areas are characterized by a high urban density and a diver ...
It is well-known that the morphology of urban areas modifies the variations of climate variables at microscale; known as microclimate conditions. The complexity of urban morphology can lead to undesired wind conditions or excessive air temperature; particu ...
This paper presents a procedure for the extension of the Vulnerability Index Method (VIM) to the seismic assessment of hybrid timber-masonry buildings. The research is based on the execution of a detailed numerical study of this peculiar structural typolog ...
Our exposure to light has a key role in regulating our biological clock through a dedicated photoreceptor present in the human eye. Increased awareness to its criticality when it comes to human well-being is urgently needed, as this criticality is potentia ...
If environmental factors are important determinants of health, then universal access to adequate housing is key to tackle urban health inequities. Yet, with over one billion urban dwellers having no other choice than living in so-called slums, the provisio ...
Urban canopy models (UCMs) developed based on Prandtl mixing-length theory provide a simple method for predicting urban flows. In the existing models, the Prandtl mixing length and the sectional drag coefficient of buildings are usually assumed to be unifo ...
Some transdisciplinary ‘metropolitan laboratories’ created to improve the global transition by renewing concepts, analytical tools and project approaches have demonstrated a certain vivacity and capacity for experimentation. Metrolab in Brussels, for examp ...
Current planning policies aim at putting a stop to urban sprawl by favouring densification processes. In this context, future developments are more likely to happen in strategic urban areas than in existing peri-urban neighbourhoods of single-family houses ...
The urban mobility plays a key role in the planning and structuring of cities and major urban areas. Therefore, the restructuring of the road system justified by the urban mobility system improvement, through the encouragement of motorized displacement in ...
