An integrated package for modelling and mapping urban traffic emissions and air and acoustic quality
2005
Urban activities and traffic movements have an important impact on the acoustic level and air pollution. The aim of the present paper is to assess the improvement of an environmental territorial information system, developed in 2003, useful as a decision support for town-planning and territorial management. The system born as a data base and as a tools of management for environmental problems is now improved and is able to calculate the noise levels and the correlate CO values. Since an urban area could be analyzed at a macro-scale level also the evaluation is at a macro scale level. Thanks to its flexibility, the modular system allows to meet the demands of a wide range of applications.
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.

Abitare i paesaggi inattesi: DOM – e la pratica del cammino
2022
Urbanized territories have expanded invading the space and modifying the dynamics defined over the centuries of slow development, often making the city indistinguishable from the non-city. In this condition, an unforeseen form of landscape takes place and determines itself, unexpectedly interposing between the planned meshes. By appropriating spaces transitorily rejected by hyper-functionalization, wild environments nomadically occupy empty sites until a new order to come. The practice of walking to cross spaces is an experience of comprehension that allows human beings a renewed way of dwelling in the world. The article assumes that the design process over wild areas continue to occur thro…
Poverty, Consent, and Choice in Early Marriage : Ethnographic Perspectives from Urban Tanzania
2018
The assumed inability of adolescents to voluntarily consent to marriage is a key definition of child marriage. Using ethnography, this study approaches consent, self-determination, and fulfillment ...

MobiSim : un modèle multi-agents et multi-scalaire pour simuler les mobilités urbaines
2010
Le projet MobiSim (simulation des mobilités) vise à modéliser différentes dynamiques à différentes échelles pour simuler la complexité des mobilités quotidiennes et résidentielles, sur l'espace d'une aire urbaine. MobiSim apparaît ainsi comme une plateforme de simulation pour l'étude prospective des mobilités dans les agglomérations françaises et européennes, en lien avec leur développement et leur aménagement. Cette plateforme prend concrètement la forme d'un programme informatique qui se base sur plusieurs modèles. Elle permet ainsi de coupler une approche centrée sur les choix et les comportements individuels à une évaluation de ces comportements sur le trafic et les déplacements quotidi…
