        Global Seminar Series: Responding to Climate Emergency–Balancing Sustainability with Decarbonisation

        Introduction:The SDG Goals provide a framework for all professional actions though it may seem broad.  Design and planning professionals have increasingly found ways to deliver buildings and cities which reduce human impact on the ecological systems and improve well being of communities.  However, under conditions of what we now call ‘climate emergency’ the actions needed are much more urgent...

          The Fun of Architectural Form: Exploring American Architecture

          Introduction:​I am interested in architectural form. In this lecture, I would like to use examples from American architecture to tell the fun of architectural form. Architectural forms have their basic prototype, which is then transformed to suit the needs of particular place and/or time. This process of transformation is the work of design. Additionally, there are also forms that do not take ...

                  Global Seminar Series: Development of Theoretical Choice Models for Decision Making under Uncertainty: A Case Study in Shared Parking

                  ​Introduction:In the domain of theoretical model development of the decision making of individual people, it has been a concern of how to deal with the choices under uncertain situations. Traditional theoretical models in this case are normally not directly applicable in terms of the theoretical foundations. In this presentation, I would like to introduce the development of a prospect theoreti...
