Urban form and the socioeconomic and environmental dimensions of cities
Journal of Urbanism: International Research on Placemaking and Urban Sustainability, 2021Despite advances in debate on the relationships between urban form and socioeconomic and environmental dimensions of cities, many perspectives are being developed in isolation. This paper proposes a more integrated view of this relationship.

Raster Analysis of Urban Form [PDF]
Environment and Planning B: Planning and Design, 2004 A new paradigm for investigating the environment consequences of urban texture is proposed. Using raster-based models and software algorithms derived from image processing the authors develop efficient methods of measuring geometric parameters and predicting radiation exchange.

The impact of urban form on building energy and cost efficiency in temperate-humid zones
, 2021As residential buildings and urban areas account for a significant proportion of overall energy consumption, priority should be assigned to this dimension of housing and urban design solutions.

Effective land-use is a prerequisite for sustainable urbanization. Land-use efficiency is intimately related to factors such as economic growth and industrial policies; however, limited studies focus on the spatial effects of urban form on land-use ...

Technological Change and Urban Form [PDF]
Environment and Planning A: Economy and Space, 1984 In this paper the author previews a current international study of impacts of technological change on urban activities and interactions, and hence on urban built form. He considers various trends and factors of technological change, and the mechanisms through which they are influencing urban form. The nature of this impact is also discussed. The author

The global homogenization of urban form. An assessment of 194 cities across time
, 2020The spatial structure of cities, i.e. their composition, shape and degree of fragmentation or compactness, is a physical expression reflecting development efficiency.

Urban Form and Accessibility to Jobs
Environment and Urbanization ASIA, 2011Accessibility is a comprehensive performance measure for the integration between land use and transport systems. In this research, two accessibility measures were applied to evaluate the integration between transport and land use in Hanoi metropolitan area: Vietnam, which has a typical monocentric urban form in the current situation, and Randstad ...

The contribution is part of the debate on trans-scalar design, outlining a role for design within a system of strategies. The river courses, natural infrastructures yesterday and holders of a denied natural identity today, provide specific scope for reflection, starting from research experiences within the territories of the Metropolitan City of Turin,
