Abstract:
Public utilities are rarely registered in land administration systems, and these records have no legal value in those cases where they are registered. Therefore, ownership of public utilities is not recorded in the land administration system, which in turn prevents the possibility of registering mortgages. In this paper, data on utility infrastructure were collected from the Croatian Utility Cadaster and the Land Book to analyze the registration of the legal status of utility infrastructure and the completeness of the utility registration of public utilities.

Abstract:
Public utilities, such as electricity, water, heat, oil, gas, and electronic communication, are a vital component of every modern society. With rising urbanisation, more complex buildings and infrastructure, underground and overground construction, as well as a limited amount of space in such areas, the proper registration of utilities has become more important than ever. A bibliometric analysis was conducted on the research topic of public utilities’ registration.

Transportation electrification plays a crucial role in the transition to green energy. As households, businesses, and public entities increasingly shift from gas vehicles to electric vehicles (EVs), the demand for charging infrastructure leads to a significant rise in energy consumption. To effectively plan grid buildout, utilities need to rely on granular geographic data to pinpoint when and where EVs will start to emerge or grow in number on the grid. This process involves utilizing multiple models, including detection models to identify existing EVs that are currently unknown to utilities;

Abstract:
ABSTRACT Underground infrastructures can be adversely affected by earthquake-induced rock engineering vibration causing damage problems. These impacts are even more significantly affected for large underground caverns due to the large span and complex structures. Currently, time-history numerical simulation is still the most popular method for seismic design of underground infrastructure, however it is based on the plane-strain model and assumes the vertical incidence of seismic waves. In fact, the propagation direction of seismic wave is arbitrary and the effect of excitation direction has no

Abstract:
The road to decarbonization is a web of woven pathways – while the building sector works hard to reduce embodied andoperational carbon, governments and utilities should pivot cities away from fossil fuels and incentivize renewable energyinfrastructure. On this latter point, architectural design could play an important role on how renewable energy is adoptedinto the everyday life of its users. Beyond energy models and smart envelopes, design has an under-appreciated influenceon how cultural value is perceived or produced through any given built infrastructure or utility.

Abstract:
This paper (IFM-115) evaluates a set of contractual adjustments, renegotiations and disputes that have taken place in different public utility industries in Argentina since 1991, considering: 1) Whether the decisions analyzed are inside the initial contract or represent a modification of it; 2) Whether they were motivated by unexpected shocks, by "loopholes" in the initial contracts, or just responded to a contractual failure (holdup by one of the parties); 3) The actors involved in the disputes and "production" of these innovations; and 4) How these disputes were resolved.

Abstract:
Digital transformation in water utilities can provide numerous benefits for the utilities themselves and the customers they serve. There are many factors that impact an organizations ability to implement digital strategies, such as access to infrastructure and capital, cultural expectations, awareness of new and innovative technologies, and technical skills. The research identified two pressing challenges: access to financial capital and access to skilled labor. It also revealed opportunities to focus on improving sensing systems for water assets, the speed of internal information communicatio

This study explores the state of infrastructure in the region's primary education schools, using the SERCE database, and analyzes the connection between school infrastructure conditions and language and mathematics tests results for third and sixth grade students. The results of the analysis indicate that school infrastructure and the access to basic services (electricity, water, sewerage and telephone) in the region's schools are highly deficient; there exists a large disparity between countries as well as between private urban, public urban and public rural schools; and there are large gaps

Abstract:
The water and sanitation sector is essential for livelihoods and has therefore been recognized by most countries as critical infrastructure. While the growing trend of automation and digitalization of water sector infrastructures improves efficiencies and helps reduce operating costs, it also exposes the sectors facilities and operations to ever-increasing cyber risks. The number and variety of cyberthreats and malicious actors is rapidly increasing: from nation-state actors seeking to cause political and social chaos as well as disrupt economies, cybercriminals looking for profit, and hacktiv

Abstract:
Investment in transportation infrastructure projects generates benefits, both direct and indirect. While emissions reductions, crash reductions, and travel time savings are prominent direct benefits, there are indirect benefits in the form of real estate enhancements that could pay off debt or loan incurred in the improvement of the infrastructure itself. Studies have shown that improvements associated with rail transportation (such as station upgrades) trigger an increase in the surrounding real estate values, increasing both the opportunity for monetary gains and, ultimately, property tax co

Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC) is the most unequal region in the world (UNDP, 2019), where one third of the population lives in poverty. The neighbourhoods where this population lives are marked by stigmas disseminated by the State and the media, related to regimes of visibility (violence, precariousness, illegality) and invisibility (creativity, community spirit, different bodies). These regimes feed on the asymmetries in the way outlying territories are known by the data collected by governments and corporations.

Abstract:
There is much to learn from the recent New Zealand and Japan earthquakes. These earthquakes produced differing levels of liquefaction-induced ground movements that damaged buildings, bridges, and buried utilities. Along with the often spectacular observations of infrastructure damage, there were many cases where well-built facilities located in areas of liquefaction-induced ground failure were not damaged. Researchers are working on characterizing and learning from these observations of both poor and good performance. The “Liquefaction-Induced Ground Movements Effects” workshop provided an opp
