In this paper we discuss progress that has been made in modelling of urban resource flows to support urban designers to optimise the sustainability of their design and planning proposals, In particular we consider models of urban energy demand and more gen ...
Linkage between the urbanisation process, urban models, social practices, mutations of the public space, and management and planning approaches of cities in the South was studied. Critical understanding of traditional urban instruments and ways to create i ...
In part stimulated by the computer game industry, reasonable progress has been made in the dynamic modelling of urban growth and land use change. However, sustainability considerations in this work remain to be addressed. Yet the environmental impact of ci ...
The increasing importance of sustainability in urban and architectural design progressively influences the conception of urban neighborhoods. Among the multiple aspects of this evolution, the reduction of global energy consumption plays a crucial role. Its ...
In Switzerland, local communities are encouraged to apply the sustainable development principles in Agenda 21. An essential question for city planning and management is : Agenda 21 offers many possibilities for action. How to establish priorities lit a coh ...
This special issue of the Journal of Cleaner Production was initiated as a result of the 5th and 6th meetings of the Asia Pacific Roundtable for Sustainable Consumption and Production (APRSCP), which were held in Melbourne, Australia and Hanoi, Vietnam, re ...
The most significant contributions of new technologies to the implementation of sustainable urban travel policies appear to be twofold: a better understanding of users’ behavior, and the improvement of interfaces between operators. Smart cards, i.e. chip c ...
With more than half the world population now urbanised, urban metabolism – defined as the throughput and transformation of material and energy flows to sustain human life in urban settlements – is responsible for consuming the majority of global resources ...
The goal of our presentation it to contribute to gain a better understanding of the strengths and limitations of emerging “innovative” approaches to urban planning aiming at integrating the three relevant EES aspects of sustainable development. Analysis is ...
