Circular Economy Pathways for Sustainable Urban Housing in India
Rapid urbanisation, population growth, socioeconomic disparities, and sustainability pressures are intensifying India's urban housing challenges, particularly for low‐income and economically weaker section households, creating a critical need for context‐sensitive circular economy (CE) pathways. This study investigates how CE approaches can be contextualised for Indian urban housing through a 2‐day participatory workshop involving 20 built enviro…

Developing Social Simulations to Aid Scenario-Based Planning for Urban Regeneration Projects
Developing sustainable and circular urban precincts requires the buy-in and participation of users of the infrastructure in an optimal manner. The most well-designed and developed infrastructure will achieve its objectives only if they are used in the intended manner. To achieve this, planners need to consider social behaviour and expectations of users, and design precincts to facilitate sustainable behaviour. This paper presents research on deve…
If there is waste, there is a system
A decision-making tool to assess external costs of disaster induced bridge failure
Postdisaster Impact Assessment of Road Infrastructure
Road infrastructure is a vital aspect in transportation systems and can be severely affected by disasters. Postdisaster impact assessment is vital for the repair and reconstruction of such infrastructure, which is constrained by budget and time. This review provides a detailed analysis of prior literature on postdisaster impact assessments of road infrastructure. The related methods used in the literature were analyzed based on their classificati…
