To address the dearth of knowledge about person-based and trip-level exposure, we developed the Icarus model. Icarus uses mesoscale traffic model—activity-based model—to analyze the heat exposure of regions of interest at an individual level. The goal with Icarus was to design accurate, granular models of population and temperature behavior for a target region, which could be transformed into a heat exposure model by means of simulation and spatial-temporal joining. By combining and implementing the most robust software and data available, Icarus was able to capture person-based exposure with unparalleled detail. Here we describe the model methodology. We use the metropolitan region of Phoenix, Arizona, USA to carry out a case study using Icarus.

Arizona State University's Spring 2022 Urban Infrastructure Anatomy course assessed infrastructure challenges for advanced logistics planning in Belmont, Arizona. The Belmont initiative has sought to examine how planning for future advanced logistics technologies and operations should serve as drivers for novel urban planning. The project teams focused on energy systems, transportation systems, agriculture, biomimicry, and heat mitigation.

A methodology is presented for synthetic water distribution networks that advances previous methods by Ahmad et al. 2022 (SyNF v1.0). The methodology describes the development changes for v1.1 of the model. This includes major updates to the handling of global variables, parameterization of water treatment plants (WTP) and tanks, and

A methodology is presented for synthetic water distribution networks that advances previous methods by Ahmad et al. 2022 (SyNF v1.0). The methodology describes the development changes for v1.1 of the model. This includes major updates to the handling of global variables, parameterization of water treatment plants (WTP) and tanks, and the inclusion of flexibility in handling different demand estimates. The model advancements were designed around true data for San Juan and Mayaguez (Puerto Rico), but are generalizable to other regions.

In this paper, we examine Handgun Control Inc. and the National Rifle Association’s contributions to mobilizations, for and against gun control. As with any social and political movement, we find these two opposing networks, the proponents of gun control and the anti-gun control groups, utilizing each other’s frames, actions and policies as a way of countering the opposition and advancing their own agendas.

The research shows that vegetation height differentially affects surface temperature at the residential parcel-level. Vegetation of 5m-10m height is correlated to mitigation of extreme temperatures, lowering daytime surface temperatures and raising nighttime surface temperatures.

The research shows that vegetation height differentially affects surface temperature at the residential parcel-level. Vegetation of 5m-10m height is correlated to mitigation of extreme temperatures, lowering daytime surface temperatures and raising nighttime surface temperatures. Vegetation of 1.5m-5m height lowered daytime surface temperatures to a lesser magnitude than vegetation of taller height. Results imply that planners and landscape designers should consider strategically arranging buildings and vegetation to maximize shading and cooling benefit.
