Eye-tracking emulation software: a promising urban design tool

, 2021
The human brain is designed as a social engagement system hard-wired to take in and respond to other people. This study begins to explore how this hidden brain design also directs our engagement with the built environment, in this instance, determining ...

Urban Streetscape Design and Crash Severity

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2015
Streetscape design is increasingly acknowledged as a tool for improving traffic safety and livability in urban settings. While traditional highway safety engineering promotes removing obstacles from and widening roadside clear zones to reduce collision potential, a contrasting framework proposes that smaller, more enclosed streetscapes may encourage ...

Intelligent evaluation of urban streetscape designs by analysing pedestrian body dynamics

Third International Workshop on Advanced Computational Intelligence, 2010
This study describes a new approach for pedestrian behaviour analysis in simulated urban environments. A software system was developed to analyse the dynamics of pedestrians with a focus on their movement trajectories and the angle between the pedestrian's movement vector and their gaze vector. One-class support vector machines and dynamic time warping

Incorporating networks in semantic understanding of streetscapes: Contextualising active mobility decisions

Environment and Planning B Urban Analytics and City Science, 2022
Planning for active mobility satisfies many fundamental tenets of good urban design and planning. However, planning for active mobility is a complex endeavour due to numerous local, place-based factors that influence active mobility decisions.

Community and streetscapes: the art of urban design revisited

Proceedings of the Institution of Civil Engineers - Urban Design and Planning, 2015
Camillo Sitte argued that town planning should incorporate artistic principles. Raymond Unwin, Gordon Cullen, Kevin Lynch and many others have developed this theme, demonstrating how urban form can be artfully manipulated, to be attractive and stimulating, producing distinctive townscapes rich in texture and meaning.

Streetscape Design Elements Approach as a Tool for Urban Soundscape Enhancement A Perspective from Ahmed Oraby Square, Alexandria, Egypt

2021
Streetscape design is one of the disciplines that have an effective role in the quality of urban soundscape however, there is a noticeable absence of links between urban soundscape and streetscape design. This research aims to link urban soundscape with streetscape design by creating guideline for the process of enhancing and designing soundscape by ...

Do Streetscapes Still Matter for Customer Ratings of Eating and Drinking Establishments in Car-Dependent Cities?

Journal of Urban Design
This study examines how indoor and outdoor aesthetics, streetscapes, and neighborhood features shape customer satisfaction at eating and dining establishments (EDEs) across different urban contexts, varying in car dependency, in Washington, DC.

Measuring streetscapes’ threshold intervals on pedestrian perception: An evidence-based study integrating virtual reality and wearable biosensors

Environment and Planning B Urban Analytics and City Science
The growing emphasis on walkable environments underscores the need to understand how streetscapes influence pedestrian perception, yet the specific threshold intervals at which these effects become significant remain underexplored.
