    Safety Risk Assessment of Urban Underground Large Space Construction

    This monograph aims to provide theoretical and technical support for construction safety risk assessment in the construction of urban underground large space, since high construction risks and safety accidents frequently occurs in the current development of complex underground spaces in urban areas. The author's team completes the statistical analysis on a large number of typical engineering instances and related accident cases, and proposes the definition of "urban underground large space" and corresponding risk analysis methods. This book starts with analyzing the safety risk characteristics during construction period of urban underground large spaces and establishes a coupling evolution analysis model, then proposes an index system and the quantitative criterion for construction safety risk assessment in urban underground large space, and lastly constructs a dynamic evaluation system on construction safety risk. The book will be an valuable reference for professional engineers, researchers, teachers, and students with an interest in the construction and management of underground spaces. The basis of English translation of this book, originally in Chinese, was facilitated by artificial intelligence. The content was later revised by the authors for accuracy.

  12. Planning Climate Smart and Wise Cities

    Planning Climate Smart and Wise Cities

    This book provides information that facilitates integrated climate actions in cities, leveraging disruptive technologies, business models, policies, financing, and leadership solutions. It fosters the development of climate smart and wise cities. It reviews the major developments of climate actions in cities and combines climate environment and energy technology, policy and financing instruments. A range of distinguished authors assess the experiences thus far and also consider future development from both theoretical and practical perspectives. They also discuss many policy and technical options, including climate smart and wise city planning, inclusion of urban nature, international and national carbon market mechanisms and measuring its impact and digital transformation. Moreover, attention is paid to the role of natural principles, the role of transparency principles and to aspects of democratic climate governance within a climate action scheme. This book makes clear that thecarbon neutrality, sustainability, circularity, efficiency, connectivity and resiliency of cities depend to a large extent on the specific digital technologies and the leadership reshaping our cities.Discussing multidisciplinary aspects of climate action, this book offers new insights to academics, policymakers and practitioners both in the public and private sectors. Those insights are not only retrospective, relevant for understanding the past, but they are also prospective and forward-looking, guiding the achievements of the SDGs and the climate goals.
