Urban climate resilience through hybrid infrastructure
نویسندگان
چکیده
Urban infrastructure will require transformative changes to adapt changing disturbance patterns. We ask what new opportunities hybrid infrastructure—built environments coupled with landscape-scale biophysical structures and processes—offer for building different layers of resilience critical dealing increased variation in the frequency, magnitude phases climate-related disturbances. With its more diverse components internal logics, opens up alternative additive ways through infrastructure, by providing a wider range functions responses. Second, points toward greater ongoing (re)design at landscape level, where structure function can be constantly renegotiated recombined.

Infrastructure resilience assessment through control design
Infrastructure resilience is a priority for homeland security in many nations around the globe. This paper describes a new approach for quantitatively assessing the resilience of critical infrastructure systems. The mathematics of optimal control design provides the theoretical foundation for this methodology. This foundation enables the inclusion of recovery costs within the resilience assessm...
متن کاملTime-dependent resilience assessment and improvement of urban infrastructure systems.
This paper introduces an approach to assess and improve the time-dependent resilience of urban infrastructure systems, where resilience is defined as the systems' ability to resist various possible hazards, absorb the initial damage from hazards, and recover to normal operation one or multiple times during a time period T. For different values of T and its position relative to current time, the...
متن کاملUrban Resilience in Climate Change Adaptation: A Conceptual Framework
This study presents a conceptual framework for analyzing urban resilience in the context of climate change. The key conceptual elements of resilience are first identified and then reorganized with a focus on cities and climate change adaptation. This study covers not only ecological and engineering resilience but also resilience as a sociopolitical process from an evolutionary perspective. The ...
متن کاملCreating Community Resilience Through Elder-Led Physical and Social Infrastructure.
OBJECTIVE Natural disasters and rapidly aging populations are chronic problems for societies worldwide. We investigated the effects of an intervention in Japan known as Ibasho, which embeds elderly residents in vulnerable areas within larger social networks and encourages them to participate in leadership activities. This project sought to deepen the connections of these elderly residents to so...
متن کاملResilience of Electricity Infrastructure
2. Resilience is not achieved by picking off and solving individual problems but results from the inter-play of all the multiple inter-related components and factors that form the whole electricity system. The lessons that can be learnt from the last period when electricity resilience was an issue, the 3 day week in the 1970s, are of limited value in the current context because both the underly...
