A Case Study of Pavement Foundation Support and Drainage Evaluations of Damaged Urban Cement Concrete Roads

Applied Sciences
Surface cracks and joint deteriorations are typical premature failures of urban cement concrete pavement. However, traffic loads on the urban pavement are much lower than those on highways. Limited research has been conducted to investigate the causes of

ALL POSSIBLE PASTS: Heritage, Simulacra, and Gentrification in Seoul

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract Urban heritage scholars have often criticized simulacra as ‘bad’ copies that degrade the ‘good’ model of the past through commercialization and gentrification. This article challenges such Platonic dichotomies of good/bad and model/copy, arguing that the binary of good heritage and bad simulacra is flawed because heritage is itself actualized ...

Disciplining the “Queen of the World”? Responsible Innovation as a Way of Life

Business Ethics, the Environment &Responsibility, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper offers a critical reflection on the concept of responsible innovation as defined during the last decades. We argue that the emphasis on innovation as a process risks neglecting the very goals of innovation, namely societal desirability and acceptability. Thus, we suggest reconsidering the role of imagination, the “Queen of the world”
