A Bridge That Turned Into a Pier

open access: yesLidé města, 2018
Karel Prager’s project of the experimental housing development in Košíře (1975) was doomed to be an ultimate failure from the beginning. As a specific variation of Yona Friedman’s vision of the “city above the city”, it was supposed to hover above the town, exploiting inaccessible or built‑up terrain, as well as avoiding a costly and painful ...

The 2‐D Orthogonal Packing Problem With Multiple Levels of Prioritization: A Spatial Optimization Perspective

open access: yesNaval Research Logistics (NRL), EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper addresses two‐dimensional orthogonal packing within a confined space, integrating bin packing principles with facility layout concepts to address scenarios in which items must not only fit but also be arranged according to spatial priorities.

Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

Shake Table Response of RC Bridge Piers to Near-Fault Earthquake [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
<p>Near fault ground motion (NFGM) is a single long period velocity pulse of large magnitude. These earthquakes have caused severe and impulsive damage on various infrastructures because the epicentre is close to the urban area.
