Flood risk management in historic centres
The increasing frequency and severity of climate-related disasters underscore the need for reliable and adaptable risk management solutions, especially in complex environments such as historic city centres, where structural and functional characteristics pose unique challenges. To address this issue, the paper proposes a workflow that integrates GIS, BIM, and VR technologies to enable seamless informative integration and effective assessment of k…
A novel dynamic disaster risk assessment of Urban Built Environments
Disaster risk assessment in Urban Built Environments (UBEs) must consider the joint impacts of possible hazard conditions and dynamics in UBE use, and thus the spatiotemporal variations in the number (exposure) and typology (individual vulnerability) of the hosted population. The integration of such concepts could be boosted by multiscale approaches representing the complex interactions among the UBE subsystems, supporting scenario creation. Buil…
How much do users matter? An integrated method for building flood vulnerability and exposure assessment in Historic Urban Areas
The definition of sustainable strategies for risk mitigation in Urban Built Environments (UBEs) prone to flooding should be based on holistic yet quick approaches that comprise hazard, physical vulnerability, and user factors. In particular, the ways users occupy, live and behave in UBEs introduce significant spatiotemporal dynamics in the final risk due to their user exposure (how many?) and vulnerability (of which type?). These effects can be r…
A Novel Framework for Heat Stress Risk Assessment and Mitigation in Real and Typological Historical Public Open Spaces Under Climate Change Scenarios
Climate change is altering the use of public open spaces in historical urban environments, compounded by urban heat island effects. Especially considering urban squares, rising temperatures increase health risks for outdoor users, particularly for vulnerable individuals (by, e.g., age and fragility). Rapid risk assessment under current and future climate scenarios can exploit integrated simulations to support the process, considering both real-wo…
Supporting “Build Back Better” in historical towns
Applying ‘Build Back Better’ (BBB) principles to Historical Urban Built Environments (HUBEs) means balancing sustainable structural and non-structural strategies with revitalization and preservation tasks, by addressing multiple risk factors. Among them, user exposure (“how many people?”) and vulnerability (“of which typology?”) can describe how the HUBE and its composing parts can be attractive depending on their functions, also impacting potent…
From single to multi-risk perspective
A workflow for multi-mitigation strategies for historic squares is proposed. • Heatwave and terrorism risks methods are combined to test multi-risk scenarios. • Behavioural simulation-based approach is used for assessment goals. • Sustainable, compatible and redundant heatwaves-oriented solutions are defined. • Solutions impact is verified for terrorist acts, and then for multi-risk mitigation. Historical outdoor Open Areas (hOA) are relevant “ho…
Evaluating strategies for single to multi-risk mitigation in urban public open spaces
Behavioural-based risk of the Built Environment
The assessment of risk in the Built Environment (BE) involves understanding the inseparable relationship between the physical space and its users. In emergency management, particularly during Sudden-Onset Disasters (SUODs), effective evacuation is crucial for individuals’ resilience in BE. Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) offer a quantitative approach to risk assessment, facilitating a systematic evaluation of various risks within BE. The resear…
Assessing the spatiotemporal impact of users’ exposure and vulnerability to flood risk in urban built environments
Flood risk in an urban built environment depends on the combination of the hazard, the vulnerability of the built environment itself and its infrastructure (referred to as physical vulnerability), and the exposure and vulnerability of the people residing, working or visiting it (i.e., their human condition). However, factors affecting those people vary over space and time depending on the uses of the built environment. This research offers a meth…
Towards Using Digital Technologies to Balance Conservation and Fire Mitigation in Building Heritage Hosting Vulnerable Occupants
Digital technologies can support designers in balancing architectural heritage conservation and performances using multidisciplinary approaches. Fire safety represents a challenging issue, especially in public historical buildings hosting vulnerable occupants, since heavy modifications are often required to facilitate their evacuation. Digital tools based on evacuation simulation are able to verify the impact of other sustainable, compatible evac…
A non-immersive virtual reality serious game application for flood safety training
Boosting urban community resilience to multi-hazard scenarios in open spaces
A key role in making cities resilient has been acknowledged in raising risk preparedness and awareness of urban communities, by appropriate education and communication strategies, which should rely on innovative and pervasive tools. In this regard, an outstanding paradigm shift is driven by the advancement of Virtual Reality, which can take advantage of Serious Games, for helping individuals develop responsive behaviours in case of both slow and …
Determining behavioural-based risk to SLODs of urban public open spaces
A behavioural-based approach can be used to assess how users’ reactions to surrounding environmental conditions can alter the urban Built Environment (BE) risk to Slow Onset Disasters (SLODs). Public Open Spaces (POSs) in the BE are relevant scenarios, due to micro-climate-related stress, users’ vulnerabilities (e.g., age, health frailty) and exposure time. Simulation methods can support behavioural-based risk-assessment, but results are generall…
How Could Increasing Temperature Scenarios Alter the Risk of Terrorist Acts in Different Historical Squares? A Simulation-Based Approach in Typological Italian Squares
Squares in the urban historical built environment are public open spaces prone to the risk of terrorist acts, essentially because they are ideal soft targets and attract significant user densities. Risk assessment methods should consider how users behave in them, both before and during an accident (i.e., the evacuation process). In addition to squares’ morphology and layout, and considering that urban areas are more and more prone to the effects …
Users' vulnerability and exposure in Public Open Spaces (squares)
Public Open Spaces (POSs) such as streets and squares, in our cities are characterized by spatio-temporal variations of users' vulnerability and exposure in view of the hosted social, governmental, religious, and commercial functions. Single or multi-risks conditions in POSs can hence vary over time. This work proposes a methodology to perform local-scale analyses on use patterns in real-world POSs, pursuing a quick-to-apply approach based on rem…
How distant? An experimental analysis of students’ Covid-19 exposure and physical distancing in university buildings
Simplified flood evacuation simulation in outdoor built environments. Preliminary comparison between setup-based generic software and custom simulator
Urban morphology parameters towards multi-risk scenarios for squares in the historical centers
The historical built environment (HBE) in urban areas is prone to disasters, which threaten both people and the historical built heritage itself. In such a scenario, risks depend on the combination between different possible (multi-) hazards (including climate change-related ones), the vulnerability and exposure of HBE users, and the physical (morphology-, typology- and construction-related) features of the HBE. In this context, squares are relev…
Assessing the flood risk to evacuees in outdoor built environments and relative risk reduction strategies
Seismic risk of Open Spaces in Historic Built Environments
Earthquakes affect the safety of the users hosted in both indoor and outdoor urban built environments, especially in Historic Built Environments (HBEs). Many full HBE-scale risk-assessment methods are defined, while methodologies oriented to local analysis of meso-scale elements, such as Open Spaces (OSs), are still limited. Nevertheless, OSs play a crucial role in the first emergency phases, like in the evacuation process, since they host emerge…
