Assessing Urban Environmental Sustainability by Means of Indicators: The Case of the Heritage Buildings
2002
Man in developed countries is looking for new and more suitable paradigms of a correct evolution, founded on an improved level of quality of life, on a pollution-free environment and on the availability of rising amount of time to be spent in pleasure and cultural activities.
Wybrane przykłady realizacji koncepcji miasta-ogrodu oraz możliwości implementacji ich elementów we współczesnej tkance miejskiej
2020
Praca stanowi przekrój myśli urbanistycznej, jaką jest koncepcja miasta- ogrodu. Celem pracy jest przedstawienie sposobu kształtowania współczesnej tkanki miejskiej w odniesieniu do założeń garden city na przykładzie miasta Opole. Obecne tendencje w planowaniu przestrzennym miast zdają się nie uwzględniać szeroko rozumianego krajobrazu jako waloru. Niniejsza praca powstała z myślą o przybliżeniu założeń opartych na zasadzie połączenia środowiska zbudowanego z naturalnym, pokazując, że mogą być one funkcjonalnymi i kompletnymi tkankami miejskimi
Rigenerazione urbana e transizione ecologica. Il ripristino del sistema fluviale dell'Østerå come servizio ecosistemico di Aalborg (DK)
2023
I principi della Carta di Aalborg (1994) hanno ispirato e guidato la rigenerazione della città danese, sede della Prima Conferenza Europea sulle Città Sostenibili, verso un modello di sviluppo urbano sostenibile. Le politiche urbane hanno affrontato i temi della transizione energetica, del recupero delle aree urbane dismesse e della conservazione della natura e della biodiversità in una prospettiva olistica. Per aumentare la resilienza della città nei confronti dei cambiamenti climatici e per migliorare l’equilibrio ecosistemico degli ambienti urbanizzati, Aalborg ha puntato sul rafforzamento delle infrastrutture verdi e blu, avviando progetti di riattivazione dei cicli naturali interrotti …
Una sostenibilidad social para la regeneración urbana de la ciudad inteligente
2013
Today the concept of “Smart City” is usual in the new urban and globalized vocabulary. Despite, the power of its modernity can conceal a insufficient reflection about the scope of its capacity to transform the urban and contemporary paradigm. This research offers a reflection regard what since the euro Mediterranean contest, the concept of “smart city”, can contribute to the international debate, and alerts about the importance to know the deliberation of the urban transformations through the history and also the contemporary age. Actualmente el concepto “Smart City” es habitual en el nuevo vocabulario urbano globalizado. Sin embargo, la potencia de su modernidad puede estar ocultando una r…
Heritage, urbanity and transition: methods and tools for a possible future.
2021
It has taken millennia to provide our world with works of art that are sometimes comparable in magnificence and character to natural creation. Some civilizations of the past, without having any of our means, have created a historical heritage of infinite beauty. The literature on heritage and memory reports that heritage exists because society attests that an artifact, event, or place is so valuable that it is handed down to the next generation. Heritage is our anchor and beauty will save us. Architects, historians and geographers have argued that the concepts of heritage and memory are socially constructed, they shape cities and influence their identity. In the current metamorphosis, how t…
Pathways for the amplification of agroecology in African sustainable urban agriculture
2020
A growing awareness that highly intensified agricultural systems have made a substantial worldwide contribution to the worsening of the resilience capacity of natural ecosystems has, over the last twenty years, brought general attention to agroecological management models. This aspect is even more evident in industrial agriculture, which is based on the use of multiple chemical products derived from non-natural synthesis. In more developed countries, a new idea of ecology linked to agricultural production has been increasingly developed and, for this reason, there has been a greater diffusion of differentiated agricultural models taking into consideration the environmental impact of product…
Water and Energy Saving in Urban Water Systems: The ALADIN Project
2016
The ALADIN project was aimed at contributing to environmental and energy sustainability of the urban water system by means of a decision support tool able to allow an evaluation of the energy impact related to each different macro-sectors of urban water cycle highlighting the main energy flows and to assess the system energy balance and identify the possible energy-efficient solutions. Moreover the tool suggests the most efficient actions in reducing water losses. In the present paper the main features of the developed tool are presented. (C) 2016 The Authors.

L’habitat durable sans l’habiter ? Fabrique de la densité en Bourgogne
2017
In 2009 and 2010, in order to combat the urban sprawl, the Grenelle Environment sets out urban density as a public policy issue. This notion builds on a modus operandi of an urbanization regime that includes both the environmental and the participatory dimensions in its approach. This injunction of sustainability is there implemented through a range of standards, rules and procedures, while the stakeholders in urbanism strive to arrange the experience of inhabiting. But how does this apparatus take the test of reality into account? Based on a qualitative research carried out from 2012 to 2015 on urban planning projects intended to increase density in urban and suburban areas in Burgundy, th…
Applicability of hybrid aspen (Populus tremula L. × P. tremuloides Michx.) bark extract as a precursor of rigid carbon foam and activated carbon
2023
Hybrid aspens have long attracted scientific interest, but the research on their use as feedstocks for chemical applications are still very limited. The bark biomass of the poplar species contains many valuable extractives that can be utilized as value-added products. This paper examines the applicability of hybrid aspen (Populus tremula L. × P. tremuloides Michx.) bark extract as a precursor of rigid carbon foam and activated carbon. To explore this, the study considers 1) the basic chemical composition of the bark in terms of added value potential, 2) the basic chemical composition of the bark extract and the effect of its pretreatment on the extract composition, 3) the production of rigi…
Urheiluvalmentajan vuorovaikutusosaaminen
2016
Tässä tutkielmassa tarkasteltiin systemaattisen kirjallisuuskatsauksen avulla urheiluvalmentajien vuorovaikutusosaamista. Tutkielman tarkoituksena oli selvittää ja jäsennellä, minkälaista tutkimusta urheiluvalmentajien vuorovaikutusosaamisesta on tehty 2000-luvun ensimmäisillä vuosikymmenillä. Tavoitteena oli selvittää, mitä urheiluvalmentajan vuorovaikutusosaamisen osa-alueita on tutkittu, mistä näkökulmista, missä konteksteissa ja millä menetelmillä sitä on tutkittu sekä millaisia tuloksia tutkimuksissa on saatu. Systemaattinen tiedonhaku toteutettiin laajasti monipuolisissa tietokannoissa. Kriteereinä artikkeleiden valinnalle oli englannin kieli, vertaisarviointi sekä pohjautuvuus empiir…
