The paper examines how the leading exponent of the National-Romanticism Ragnar Östberg (1866-1945) contributed to conferring a proper and national character to the Stockholm’s "imago urbis" at the turn of the nineteenth century. The Swedish capital, once a ...
In the process of urban growth, the underground is often only addressed once all surface alternatives have been exhausted. Experience shows that this can lead to unforeseen conflicts (e.g., subsidence, groundwater pollution) and to lost opportunities (e.g. ...
Large-eddy simulations (LES) are performed to simulate the flow and scalar transport in rural-to-urban transition regions. The LES framework is first validated with wind-tunnel experimental data of scalar dispersion within and above a staggered array of cu ...
Land Use and Transport Integrated models (LUTIs) are promising approaches for urban planning. There is large literature describing their technical architectures or using them in various scientific contexts. Yet little attention has been paid to expectation ...
This dissertation examines the renovation of public primary and secondary schools in the Lausanne region (Vaud, Switzerland). It aims to compare these interventions with the aim of identifying common architectural criteria to the renovation strategies adop ...
The large-dimension housing complexes in Rome have grown since the late ‘60s as a result of the 1st PEEP planning of 1964. The plan tried to face the large housing emergency caused by the rising urbanization (Albano, 2001). The peripheral areas of the city ...
The assessment of the solar potential in urban areas relies on a geometrical model that can be defined at different levels of detail (LOD). In this work we compare the solar irradiation simulated on the surfaces of four sample buildings, which were modeled ...
“The only true voyage of discovery, the only fountain of eternal youth, would be not to visit strange lands but to possess other eyes, to behold the universe through the eyes of another, of a hundred others, to behold the hundred universes that each of the ...
The poster explores the notion of Effort as an integral part of active mobility and in general of urban experience. Considering the increasing value of physical effort in urban life styles, we challenge the general premise of transport planning that tends ...
