Spatial Indicators for Assessing Climate Risks and Opportunities within the Urban Environment of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

چکیده

This paper describes the research results in the development of spatial indicators for assessing both climate risks and opportunities for the southern Vietnamese city of Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC). The assessment is based upon a shared spatial framework, utilising an urban structure type approach. The key urban environmental impact indicator of imperviousness is provided as an example. The proposed system represents a thematically integrative method, for ultimately compiling domain specific GISapplications, analytical models and thematic assessment methods. Climate change resilience and exposure indicators are used to generate spatial sector-specific analyses. Through the utilisation of planning recommendation maps, the comprehensive aim is to develop, designate, and incorporate climate change mitigation and adaptation potentials into the urban decisionmaking and planning processes. The research is envisaged to contribute to and promote an increase in the city’s resilience to climate-related vulnerabilities and the overall sustainability of structures. The main objective is to advance and disseminate knowledge and inform decision-makers and the general public about the climate change risks, aiding the appraisal of adaptation options, increasing capacities to respond to climatic stress, to implement necessary adaptation measures and to strengthen the sustainable responsive capacity of the urban system.

Nonlinear Bending Analysis of Functionally Graded Plates Using SQ4T Elements based on Twice Interpolation Strategy

This paper develops a computational model for nonlinear bending analysis of functionally graded (FG) plates using a four-node quadrilateral element SQ4T within the context of the first order shear deformation theory (FSDT). In particular, the construction of the nonlinear geometric equations are based on Total Lagrangian approach in which the motion at the present state compared with the initia...

FUZZY FRACTIONAL PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS IN PARTIALLY ORDERED METRIC SPACES

In this paper, we consider fuzzy fractional partial differential equations under Caputo generalized Hukuhara differentiability. Some new results on the existence and uniqueness of two types of fuzzy solutions are studied via  weakly contractive mapping in the partially ordered metric space. Some application examples are presented to illustrate our main results.
