We are thrilled to announce the Sustainable Built Environment Conference (SBE25), which will be held from June 25 to 27, 2025 in Zürich. The conference topic is “Shaping Tomorrow: Systems Thinking in the Built Environment”. Releasing
ETH-Forschende haben mit Forschenden aus der Ukraine und Deutschland untersucht, wie sich die zerstörte ukrainische Energieinfrastruktur mit erneuerbarer Energie wiederaufbauen lässt. Demnach ermöglichen Solar- und Windkraft eine schnelle, dezentrale Versorgung und beugen der Korruption vor. Artikel
The publication features scholarly articles and interviews from leading experts working in various fields anchored in urban design and architecture. Each piece in the volume addresses the challenges and opportunities prompted by the SDG11, and by
The NSL Colloquium will take place February 26-28 2025 at ETH Zürich and publishes an open call for submissions until November 8, 2024. The colloquium will investigate the relationship between the design and maintenance of living
This paper proposes a methodology for designers to work in the extensive yet marginal landscapes that are produced as part of the process of agricultural intensification.
This paper explores the challenges in conducting Cost-Benefit Analysis (CBA) for urban cycling infrastructure. The authors discuss two key difficulties: determining the objective safety benefits and estimating the costs associated with implementing the infrastructure. To overcome
Cost-benefit analysis is a tool frequently used in project appraisal to justify the implementation of infrastructures. Due to insufficient recorded data, the construction costs and safety benefits of urban bicycling infrastructure are difficult to estimate, weakening
Most cities do not charge for driving. Do you think that is fair? It causes externalities such as noise and pollution to residents and shops. In peak-hours of congestion, valuable life time, money, and fuel are
Eva Heinen is the newly appointed Professor for Transportation and Mobility Planning in the Institute for Transport Planning and Systems (IVT). In the interview, she discusses how strategies to reduce car use and address congestion affect
Martina Voser ist seit 2021 Gastprofessorin an der ETH Zürich, Ende 2023 wurde sie zur ordentlichen Professorin für Landschaftsarchitektur berufen. Sie spricht von den tiefgreifenden Veränderungen, die der Schweizer Landschaft bevorstehen, und dass ihre Professur zusammen
The reduction of energy consumption is an increasingly important topic of the railway system. Energy-efficient train control (EETC) is one solution, which refers to mathematically computing when to accelerate, which cruising speed to hold, how long
Energy modelling is extensive. Different detailed modelling approaches can lead to significant simulation deviations. Detailed modelling leads to additional energy savings.
Problem, research strategy, and findings: Increasing numbers of urban dwellers face housing precarity in cities worldwide. We conceptualize housing precarity as a multidimensional phenomenon, using five different dimensions: 1) housing affordability, 2) tenure security, 3) housing
Das Schweizer Energiesystem soll gemäss Energiestrategie 2050 massgeblich mit Photovoltaik- (PV) und Wind-energieanlagen umgestaltet werden. Jedoch beeinflussen diese Anlagen die Wahrnehmung der Landschaft durch die Bevölkerung und können zu Konflikten mit verschiedenen gesellschaftlichen Interessen führen. Auch
Wie können sich Landschafts- und Stadtforschung wirksamer mit transdisziplinärem Dialog, Sinnlichkeit und Affekt sowie pluriversen Welten beschäftigen? Researching Otherwise stellt sensorische, kollaborative und restitutive methodische Werkzeuge vor, um neue Räume für die Produktion von Wissen zu
