    Study on Clustering of Urban Morphology Control Units Based on Risk Theory
    (Lodz University of Technology Press, 2023) Ge Xuan; Wang Guoguang; Zhang Shifu
    With the increasing threat of new types of risks from global climate change, the ‘uncertainty’ emphasized by the risk theory has become the most urgent problem to be faced in modern urban planning and governance. As the main element of the basic structure of the city, the urban morphology control unit should reflect the sensitivity, vulnerability and resilience of the city to deal with new types of risks, but the analysis on this issue needs to be further improved. This study selects Guangzhou, China as the case study city, with reference mainly to the risk society theory and risk city theory derived from the former one, trying to start from the three aspects of social group attributes, renewable energy application potential and ecological water storage potential, to classify and analyse ‘risk-based’ Guangzhou urban morphology control units. The results show that the Guangzhou urban morphology control units could be clustered into two types from social group aspect and five types from clean and recycled technology aspect, thus providing targeted advices. This study helps enrich the connotation and practical value of urban morphology theory.

    A Quantitative Analysis of the Exoadaptivity of Buildings in London
    (Lodz University of Technology Press, 2023) Bolton Liam Thomas
    Adapting cities is a method of addressing global warming and rising sea levels. Rooftop housing, a way of externally adapting buildings, has recently been promoted in London. The concept of ‘exoadaptivity’ has been developed by this study to describe how buildings and built environments externally adapt. Using unstructured data from the planning system and text mining, this study provides a quantitative analysis of the exoadaptivity of buildings in London with an emphasis on the spatial and temporal dimensions of rooftop housing. The results reveal that the exoadaptivity of buildings in London varied. This study also finds that there are contrasts in terms of how residential and non-residential buildings adapted. Amidst global environmental crises such as climate change, exoadapting buildings could be critical to achieving sustainability in the built environment.
