  • A Systems Thinking Approach to the Development of HBIM

    Open AccessLucy J Lovell, R J Davies et al.ARTICLEHeritage2025Referencias: 4

    Building Information Modelling (BIM) is an information management and modelling technique frequently employed by the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) sector. The application of BIM to Cultural Heritage (CH), otherwise known as Historic BIM (HBIM), will assist with the ongoing sustainable management of CH. However, the application of HBIM is currently limited by a lack of defined end-user requirements and standard methodology in i…

  • A Systems Thinking Approach to the Development of Historic Building Information Modelling

    Open AccessLucy J Lovell, R J Davies et al.ARTICLEHeritage2025Referencias: 3

    Historic Building Information Modelling (HBIM) is the application of BIM, a digital information management and 3D modelling technique, to cultural heritage (CH) assets. It will assist with the ongoing sustainable management of CH in line with the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (i.e., SDG 11 and SDG 13) by providing an enduring record of asset information and enabling the energy-efficient use and adaption of assets. However, the app…

  • The Application of Historic Building Information Modelling (HBIM) to Cultural Heritage

    Open AccessLucy J Lovell, R J Davies et al.ARTICLEHeritage2023

    Historic Building Information Modelling (HBIM) is the application of BIM, a digital modelling and information management technique, to assets of historical significance, otherwise known as Cultural Heritage (CH). This paper establishes the current state of HBIM implementation within CH as well as research trends to date via a review of the existing literature. Geometric modelling was found to be the topic of very early research into HBIM, with pa…

  • Framing ‘fracking’

    Open AccessLaurence Williams, Phil Macnaghten et al.ARTICLEPublic Understanding of Science2017

    The prospect of fracking in the United Kingdom has been accompanied by significant public unease. We outline how the policy debate is being framed by UK institutional actors, finding evidence of a dominant discourse in which the policy approach is defined through a deficit model of public understanding of science and in which a technical approach to feasibility and safety is deemed as sufficient grounds for good policymaking. Deploying a delibera…

  • The Environmental Costs and Benefits of Fracking

    Open AccessRobert B Jackson, Avner Vengosh et al.ARTICLEAnnual Review of Environment and…2014

    Unconventional oil and natural gas extraction enabled by horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing (fracking) is driving an economic boom, with consequences described from “revolutionary” to “disastrous.” Reality lies somewhere in between. Unconventional energy generates income and, done well, can reduce air pollution and even water use compared with other fossil fuels. Alternatively, it could slow the adoption of renewables and, done poorly, …

  • Adaptive or structural transformation? The case of the Harare, Zimbabwe, housing system

    R J Davies, Raymond Davies et al.ARTICLESocial Dynamics1989Citada por: 3Referencias: 7

    Experience in socialist societies suggests that the housing process has played a prominent role in achieving the objectives of social transformation. Public ownership of land and urban residential property, control over the distribution of residential space, public land, collective group delivery systems and convergence of housing standards have been major outcomes. The matter is taken up in this paper in reference to the evolving structure of th…

  • The structure of the South African space economy

    C Board, R J Davies et al.ARTICLERegional Studies1970Citada por: 9Referencias: 6

    Board C., Davies R. J. and Fair T. J. D. (1970). The structure of the South African space economy: an integrated approach, Reg. Studies 4, 367–392. The South African space economy in the 1960s is considered at the national and sub-national levels. An integrated view of it is achieved by relating surfaces of socio-economic character, the status and character of nodes, and flows and networks of traffic and communications. Principal components analy…
