Reducing Car Use? Just Do It!, Werner Borg Apr 2004

Reducing Car Use? Just Do It!, Werner Borg

Focus

The dependence on the car in everyday travel has increased enormously over the last several decades. This has serious and growing consequences for the environment and health for many communities affected by road traffic. At the same time, these consequences are very expensive for business, environment and society. Ways must be found to overcome this car dependency so that people begin to use other modes of transportation.


Planning, Architecture, And Politics: Sprawl Codes, New Urbanist Codes, And The Challenge Of Community-Wide Coding, Paul Crawford Apr 2004

Planning, Architecture, And Politics: Sprawl Codes, New Urbanist Codes, And The Challenge Of Community-Wide Coding, Paul Crawford

Focus

As the practice of new urbanist coding evolves, one of the great challenges we face is developing community-wide codes that address existing built communities, and are not solely focused on greenfield development or individual projects.


Actions Towards Disaster Recovery: A Global Planning Perspective, William Siembieda, Bruce Baird, Kenneth Topping Apr 2004

Actions Towards Disaster Recovery: A Global Planning Perspective, William Siembieda, Bruce Baird, Kenneth Topping

Focus

This article explores recent thinking about disasters as a component of global, national and local development planning. It suggests ways of shifting emphasis from recovery to that of mitigation and risk reduction through community involvement and including risk assessment in the local plan making process.


The City Of The Future: Betting On Sustainability, Health & Safety, Javier De Mesones Apr 2004

The City Of The Future: Betting On Sustainability, Health & Safety, Javier De Mesones

Focus

Throughout history mankind has always wanted to create beauty - as first attempted by Phidias, to go further - as did Columbus, to fly - like Leonardo da Vinci, to climb higher - as Hilary strived for, and even to travel to the moon - as Armstrong did. If these milestones were accomplished, why wouldn't man also have a desire for the best city, an ideal city in which it would be possible to have a high quality of life?


New Urbanism, Automobile Dependency And Sense Of Community: A Comparative Study Of Two Residential Developments In California, Trevor Keith, Vicente Del Rio Apr 2004

New Urbanism, Automobile Dependency And Sense Of Community: A Comparative Study Of Two Residential Developments In California, Trevor Keith, Vicente Del Rio

Focus

This paper resumes a research that concentrated in the effectiveness of residential urban design in response to some of the key tenets of new urbanism. Our original questions were: a) how this design truly reflects on the daily lives of the communities’ residents; and b) how residents perceive it? To answer these questions, the research focused on (1) automobile dependency and (2) sense of community, as the two major variables of new urbanism.

Avoiding The Golden Fleece: Licensing Agreements For Archives, Nancy E. Loe Apr 2004

Avoiding The Golden Fleece: Licensing Agreements For Archives, Nancy E. Loe

Library Scholarship

The need to negotiate licenses protecting the rights to intellectual property in archives is an emerging and complex area. This article provides archivists with a better understanding of the legal and economic issues arising from commercial requests for archival materials, examining five key areas relating to licensing: the technology, the players, the economics, the rights and the consequences. The article presents guidelines, strategies, and a sample licensing agreement to help archivists make informed decisions about whether and on what terms to license materials from their collections for commercial use.

Neh Grant Proposal: Arrangement And Description Of The Julia Morgan Architectural Archives, Nancy E. Loe

Library Scholarship

This proposal describes the significance and depth of scholarship afforded by Special Collections Department of the Robert E. Kennedy Library, California Polytechnic State University, (Cal Poly), San Luis Obispo, the nation’s largest and most comprehensive Morgan archive, and the urgent need to arrange, preserve, and make the collections fully accessible to researchers.


Consumer Knowledge And Acceptance Of Agricultural Biotechnology Vary, Jennifer S. James Apr 2004

Consumer Knowledge And Acceptance Of Agricultural Biotechnology Vary, Jennifer S. James

Agribusiness

Results from consumer surveys reveal some basic conclusions about consumer attitudes toward agricultural biotechnology. First, consumers do not agree about whether biotech foods are good or bad. Second, a small group of people strongly opposes them. Third, the majority of consumers are uninformed about the technology and how food is produced. Relatively small but vocal anti-biotechnology activist groups are successful at influencing public opinion because of consumers’ lack of knowledge, creating a role for universities and government agencies to provide clear, objective and accessible information.

Structural Health Monitoring And Damage Detection Using An Intelligent Parameter Varying (Ipv) Technique, Soheil Saadat, Mohammad N. Noori, Gregory D. Buckner, Tadatoshi Furukawa, Yoshiyuki Suzuki Mar 2004

Structural Health Monitoring And Damage Detection Using An Intelligent Parameter Varying (Ipv) Technique, Soheil Saadat, Mohammad N. Noori, Gregory D. Buckner, Tadatoshi Furukawa, Yoshiyuki Suzuki

Office of the Dean (CENG) Scholarship

Most structural health monitoring and damage detection strategies utilize dynamic response information to identify the existence, location, and magnitude of damage. Traditional model-based techniques seek to identify parametric changes in a linear dynamic model, while non-model-based techniques focus on changes in the temporal and frequency characteristics of the system response. Because restoring forces in base-excited structures can exhibit highly non-linear characteristics, non-linear model-based approaches may be better suited for reliable health monitoring and damage detection. This paper presents the application of a novel intelligent parameter varying (IPV) modeling and system identification technique, developed by the authors, to detect damage in …


Latest Tools For Viewing And Quality Checking Arm Data, S. Moore, Gary B. Hughes Mar 2004

Latest Tools For Viewing And Quality Checking Arm Data, S. Moore, Gary B. Hughes

Statistics

The DOE Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) program has acquired an incredibly large quantity of data over its period of operation, all of which must be reviewed in some manner in order to ensure that the data is of “known and reasonable” quality (ARM Science Plan). To accomplish this, Mission Research Corporation (MRC) coordinates with the ARM Data Quality Office to develop software tools that quality-check data products in a timely and continuous fashion. These tools work with the Data Quality Health and Status (DQ HandS) Explorer (Peppler et al. 2004) by analyzing ARM data streams, providing assessments of data quality …
