Abstract:

Thesis: M.C.P., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Department of Urban Studies and Planning, 2015.<br>Cataloged from PDF version of thesis.<br>Includes bibliographical references (pages 37-41).<br>Due to ever-increasing summer temperatures and a population with minimal technological adaptations to help them cope, extreme heat events will likely have a large impact on vulnerable populations in Massachusetts. As such, heat events are likely to impact the health of residents because they are related to a rise in all-cause hospital admissions and other health outcomes. We sought to clarify how

Abstract:

Defining the attributes of urban form which relate to city liveability has long been the research topic of a wide range of experts such as architects, urbanists, geographers, and, more recently, computational social scientists. Both qualitative and quantitative approaches have been developed to study this matter; however, the former often lack of generalizability, as results are mainly based on personal views, and replicability, as no systematic methodology has ever been presented. The latter, although being more generalizable, are still geographically constrained to relatively small regions (

Abstract:

Architects and urban designers have a unique background to deal with the experiential qualities of cities. Quality of urban spaces is an essential aspect of livability (Southworth, 2003). The quality of urban spaces is important, specifically the interaction between buildings and the street, and it has been explored by Jane Jacobs, Jan Gehl and many more. BIM and CIM is new technology to analyze and design buildings and cities. With fast technology development, there are many options today on how to deal with the experiential qualities and make a 3D model using image-based input.

Abstract:

The configuration of cities has invariably impacted the production of public dimension, both in its institutional meaning where the central axis is constituted by the State, as in its relational and spatial aspects. Given this scenario, it is pertinent to question how the public dimension is configured within the framework of today’s cities? This article aims to contribute answering this question by examining three dimensions that are basic in the public dimension of the cities: socio-spatial organization<br>institutional framework and urban sociability. For this, a theoretical review is made,

Abstract:

Extreme rainfall statistics are important for the design and management of the water resource infrastructure. The standard approach for extreme rainfall event severity assessment is the Intensity-Duration-Frequency (IDF) method. However, this approach does not consider the spatial context of rainfall and consequently does not properly describe rainfall storm severity, nor rarity. This study provides a critical account of the current standard practice and presents an approach that takes into consideration both the spatial context of rainfall storms, and indirectly incorporates runoff to produc

Abstract:

In view that the relations of ecologic effects overflow the limits of the traditional academic training on planning, the methodological models used are not longer adequate to solve problems; then there is a need to significant changes in the professional training of future architects and planners.Systemic urban planning is called to play a more important role not only in city management but in its hinterland connection. Universities play an important role in providing an adequate training to this end. Thus, at the Faculty of Architecture and Urbanism, National University of San Agustin, Arequi

Abstract:

As árvores, como um dos elementos de conexão mais significativos das pessoas com a natureza, e a sua frequente exclusão destas devido à disputa com outros equipamentos urbanos, pode ser interpretado como um dos sintomas do afastamento e alienação de seus moradores do ambiente natural. Diante deste cenário, compreender como as pessoas se relacionam com o ambiente e as árvores à sua volta, de maneira a conhecer as causas e formas de se trabalhar para diferentes setores da população, é tão relevante quanto o conhecimento sobre a estrutura e distribuição da arborização para o aprimoramento da sua

Abstract:

This ethnographic observation exercise is a first recognition of Abancay Avenueas an urban space of practices and social communication. It seeks to understandthe relationship that subjects build among themselves and with their environment. It starts out wondering who are the pedestrians of Abancay Avenue today? What social practices do those pedestrians set up today in there? What forms of communication do these pedestrians establish with each other? Positioning itself from the perspective of the territory as vital space, the author is placed like idle observer that wanders by the avenue. The

Abstract:

O atual modelo de planejamento dos transportes é constantemente confrontado com novos ideais associados à mobilidade sustentável. Assim, inúmeros pesquisadores debruçam-se em busca de indicadores e índices capazes de avaliar e monitorar o desempenho de políticas públicas relacionadas ao tema. Dessa forma foi desenvolvido o Índice de Mobilidade Urbana Sustentável (IMUS), uma ferramenta pautada nos preceitos da mobilidade sustentável com a proposta de tornar-se um apoio à gestão municipal. Por ser um método recente, sua aplicação ainda é limitada. Assim, o objetivo deste estudo concentra-se em r

Lima, capital of Perú, together with El Callao configure a large urban agglomeration of near nine million people that makes one third of the total Peruvian population. It is characterized by huge social and spatial inequalities and serious governance and urban management problems; and it is the siege of the national public establishments, the administrations, banks and big enterprises, which results in the concentration of half of the Peruvian economy. From this perspective, any perturbation of Lima by a disaster might affect not only the city and her inhabitants but also the Peruvian territor

Abstract:

This paper presents the results on four tests of students from fourth and fifth grade of eight urban and rural elementary schools. Four of the schools were located in rural Huaraz, two were urban public schools (one in Huaraz and one in Lima), one was a parochial school and one was a privare school (these last two in Lima). The tests measured cognitive processes (coding from the WISC-R) and achievement (reading comprehension, vocabulary and arithmetic). The results favored urban over rural students. Among the urban, the highest scores were for the students of the privare and parochial schools.

The Agricultural Nonpoint Source model (AGNPS) is a single-event grid-based model used for simulating runoff, sediment and nutrients from agricultural areas. This study involved using geographic information system (GIS) spatial data and functionality to improve the spatial and temporal assignment of parameter values for the AGNPS 5.0 model and incorporated methods for representing urban fringe land uses and their nonpoint source (NPS) pollution contributions in model inputs.
