New Urban Forms, Diversity, and Computational Design: Exploring the Open Block
(ASCE, 2020)Architects, urban designers, and city planners witness a contemporary lack of imagination regarding new urban form typologies. Most proposals have swung between two well-defined extremes: the dense, traditional block and ... -
Historic Neighborhood Design Based on Facility Heatmap and Pedestrian Simulation: Case Study in China
(ASCE, 2020)With the rapid growth of tourism in China, the spatial conflict between tourists and the host community has become a major issue in historic neighborhood design. This study employed big data and pedestrian simulation ... -
Policies for Performance-Based On-Street Parking for CBD Areas of Developing Economies
(ASCE, 2020)On-street parking is a key issue in both developed and developing countries as the burgeoning gap between available parking spaces and demand for parking has resulted in unmanageable on-street parking situations, especially ... -
Big Data and Occupants’ Behavior in Built Environments: Introducing a Game-Based Data Collection Method
(ASCE, 2020)Energy-related human behavior in buildings is difficult to define and quantify, yet critical to our understanding of total building energy consumption. It substantially influences energy consumption and saving. In the ... -
