  • There is no easy answer to ensuring the world's rapid urban population growth is managed sustainably and in a manner that promotes economic growth, social cohesion, and health and wellbeing. However, densification of existing urban areas is increasingly recognised as an effective and socially responsible way for cities to accommodate growing populations and still operate as vital, vibrant spaces. The Future Spaces Foundation's Vital Cities: Transport Systems Scorecard explores how well-networked, safe and sustainable transport networks equip densifying cities to meet the needs of their rising and fast-changing populations. This paper uses data from the scorecard to examine the transport infrastructure and associated data networks of three large, rapidly densifying cities - Beijing, Mumbai and $S{\tilde{a}}o$ Paulo - and highlight the successful measures and policies implemented between them. It includes an in-depth explanation of the scorecard's methodology, and concludes with an appeal for people-focused transport design that values safety, urban vibrancy and individual wellbeing over corporate efficiency.

  • In this paper, we present a deterioration judgment model of urban rail power equipment using driving history, the frequency and number of failures. In addition, we have developed a deterioration judgment program based on the derived failure rate. A deterioration judgment model of power equipments on metro system was designed to establish how much environmental factors, such as thermal cycling, humidity, overvoltage and partial discharge. The deterioration rate of the transformers followed the Arrhenius log life versus reciprocal Kelvin temperature (hotspot temperature) relation. The deterioration judgment program is linked to the online condition monitoring system of urban railway system. The deterioration judgment program is based on the user interface it is possible to apply immediately to the urban rail power equipment.

  • Background and objective: To improve air quality, particulate matter (PM) can be reduced using green infrastructure. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to determine the particulate matter reduction potential of climbing plants used for green walls, an element of vertical green infrastructure. Methods: A sealed chamber with controlled environmental variables was used to assess the PM reduction level caused by climbing plants. PM concentration in the plant chamber was measured after two and four hours of PM exposure, and the reduction potential was assessed based on the leaf area. Results: Compared to the empty chamber (Control), the PM reduction speed per hour was higher in the plant chamber, which confirmed that climbing plants contribute to the reduction of PM in the air. The PM reduction speed immediately after exposure in the plant chamber was high, but this slowed over time. Additionally, PM has been continuously reduced in plants with large leaves. As a result of calculating the particulate matter reduction level based on leaf area, it was found that there was a difference by particle size. Actinidia arguta, Parthenocissus tricuspidata, Trachelospermum asiaticum, and Euonymus fortunei var. radicans showed a high reduction effect. The trichomes on the leaf surface of Trachelospermum asiaticum were found to affect PM reduction. Conclusion: PM adsorption on the leaf surface is an important factor in reducing its concentration. It was possible to compare different plants by quantifying the amount of PM reduction during a fixed time period. These results can be used as the basic data to select the plant species suitable for urban green walls in terms of PM reduction.

  • This paper presents the initial findings of a ground-breaking two-year CTBUH-funded research project investigating the real environmental and social sustainability of people's lifestyles in a number of high-rise residential towers in downtown Chicago, and a comparable number of low rise homes in suburban Oak Park, Chicago - based on actual energy bills and other real data. The study is ground-breaking because, to date, similar studies have been mostly based on very large data sets of generalized data regarding whole-city energy consumption, or large-scale transport patterns, which often misses important nuances. This study has thus prioritized quality of real data (based on around 250 households in both high rise and low rise case studies), over quantity. In both urban and suburban cases, the following factors have been assessed: (i) home operational energy use, (ii) embodied energy of the dwelling, (iii) home water consumption, (iv) mobility and transport movements, (v) urban/suburban Infrastructure, and (vi) quality of life. The full results of this seminal study will be published in the form of a CTBUH Research Report publication in 2017. Presented below is an overview of the initial (and, currently, unverified) findings of the research, together with the limitations of the study that should be taken into account, as well as future plans for developing this important pilot study.

  • Urban transit is one of the most effective ways for efficient operation and construction of an urban transit by composition system which is liked originally such as rolling-stock, power, signal and infrastructure. Urban rail transit system is running in domestic, imports major equipments from advanced countries and setup for maintenance. But it takes long time because it does each organizations and lines. Also, signal, power and track system apply different standard by each construction organizations it causes an increasing construction of cost accordingly it desperately needs a systematic countermeasure. Therefore standard specification of urban transit have been establishing and operatingfor efficient operation of urban transit and base technology security that is populace ride to become a base of state economy. After track, power and signal system will be announced. Standard specification become more, the importance of administrationof standards is emphasized more. Specification administrator’s the importance which use a computing support tool recently in railroad part in embossed and is predicted to be more such forward. Therefore we propose the effective method of management with track, power signal system by constructed data-base system.

  • With the rapid development of spatial infrastructure in US, Europe, Japan, China and India, there is no doubt that the next generation Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) will improve the integrity, accuracy, reliability and availability of the position solution. GNSS is becoming an essential element of personal, commercial and public infrastructure and consequently part of our daily lives. However, the applicability of GPS in supporting a range of location-sensitive applications such as location based services in an urban environment is severely curtailed by the interference of the 3D urban settings. To characterize and gain in-depth understanding of such interferences and to be able to provide location-based optimization alternatives, a high-fidelity 3D urban model of Melbourne CBD built with ArcGIS and large scale high-resolution spatial data sets is used in this study to support a comprehensive simulation of current and future GNSS signal performance, in terms of signal continuity, availability, strength, geometry, positioning accuracy and reliability based on a number of scenarios. The design, structure and major components of the simulator are outlined. Useful time-stamped spatial patterns of the signal performance over the experimental urban area have been revealed which are valuable for supporting location based services applications, such as emergency responses, the optimization of wireless communication infrastructures and vehicle navigation services.

  • 도심기반시설은 도시 내 인간의 활동을 위해 필수적으로 공급해야 할 시설이나 도심 내의 입지선정과 관련하여 위험시설로 인식되어 많은 갈등이 야기되고 있다. 대표적인 도심의 통신전력 기반시설인 변전소 역시 전력수요의 증가에 따라 도심지에 반드시 존치해야 함에도 불구하고 사회민원이 발생함에 따라 이러한 갈등을 구체적이고 과학적인 근거에 따라 판단하고 객관적인 해결방안을 도출할 필요가 있게 되었다. 이에 본 연구에서는 아파트 가격을 결정짓는 일반적인 요소들과 아파트 단지와 변전소의 직선상의 거리를 독립변수로 사용하고, 아파트 가격을 종속변수로 단위면적당 매매가를 선정하여, 시설 위치를 포함한 아파트가격 결정요인들이 각각 어떠한 영향을 주었는지를 헤도닉 가격모형을 활용한 회귀분석과 인공신경망 분석을 통해 분석하였다. 결과 일부 대상 변전소의 경우 아파트 단지와 거리가 가까울수록 매매가격이 떨어지며 변전소가 아파트가격에 미치는 영향력의 범위는 600m이내 인 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구에서는 변전소의 입지가 아파트 가격에 영향을 미치는지를 객관적 데이터와범 용적인 모형으로 분석함으로써, 변전소의 입지가 부동산의 경제적 가치를 분석하는 방법적 토대를 제공하였다.

  • 본 연구는 도시재생 관점에서 입체도시의 효과를 밝히고, 국내 입체도시계획 관련 제도의 문제점과 한계를 고찰함으로써 제도적 개선방안을 제시하고자 수행되었다. 그리하여 사례 분석을 통해 도시공간 연결, 지역경제 활성화, 기반시설 확충, 주택 공급 등 입체도시의 도시재생 기능과 역할을 파악하였으며, 제도적 문제점으로 국유재산에 대한 사권설정 금지로 민간참여가 저해되고, 2차원적 토지이용계획에 의거한 획일적인 기반시설 설치 기준으로 일정비율 이상의 토지 확보가 없으면 입체공간 활용이 어려우며, 법률간 연계성이 미흡한 문제를 도출하였다. 결론적으로 지역기반 산업구조 다양화 및 도시기능 강화 등을 목표로 입체시설 추진을 적극 지원 유도하고, 구도심 구역을 대상으로 입체 복합개발을 추진하며, 노후주택가의 공원, 학교, 도로, 전통시장의 하부공간을 활용한 보행로, 지하상가, 주차장 등의 도시재생사업 실현을 위해 중앙정부, 지자체, 민간부문 간 협력이 이루어져야 한다.
