Re-Designing Spaces Under Elevated Roads
Abstract: The rapid expansion of elevated road networks in Indian metropolitan cities has significantly improved urban mobility while simultaneously creating extensive underutilized spaces beneath flyovers and elevated corridors. In Mumbai, these under-elevated spaces frequently remain neglected, poorly illuminated, and socially disconnected, often becoming locations for debris dumping, illegal parking, informal encroachments, and unsafe activities. Despite several beautification initiatives, including landscaped gardens, public art installations, and pedestrian walkways, many interventions fail to …

Preservation to Continuity:Reconsidering Heritage Management Paradigms
Abstract: Conventional heritage management frameworks largely treat heritage as a finite collection of monuments and protected sites, prioritizing material conservation over cultural continuity. In rapidly transforming socio-urban contexts, such approaches often fail to address the dynamic relationships between heritage, lived cultural practices, and collective memory. The primary objective of this study is to develop a holistic heritage management framework that integrates tangible and intangible heritage through participatory governance and adaptive policy …

Cosmopolitically Approaching the Heritage Discourse in the Global South: A Relational Exploration of the Nepalese Bhailakha Procession’s Mutability and Mobility
Abstract: The historic urban landscape paradigm understands cities as evolving phenomena, aligning the intangible cultural heritage perspective with the discourse on sustainable urban development. It recognizes the crucial role of collective custodianship in preserving cultural diversity. Tourism-focused, reductionist policies prioritizing economic development in cities of the Global South affected by rampant globalization profoundly challenge heritage resilience. This paper seeks to advance the discussion about sustainable development of social and cultural capital …

Modeling and Simulation of Adaptive Traffic Control Systems: Electrical Engineering Techniques for Urban Applications
Abstract: Traffic congestion is a ubiquitous challenge in urban areas, necessitating innovative solutions to improve transportation efficiency and alleviate gridlock. Traditional traffic signal control methods often prove inadequate in dynamically adapting to fluctuating traffic conditions, leading to increased travel times, fuel consumption, and emissions. In response, adaptive traffic control systems have emerged as a promising approach to mitigate congestion and enhance traffic flow in urban environments. These systems use real-time data …

Interpreting Place Memory as a Future Horizon for Architecture
Abstract: The creation of architecture, whether innovative or traditional, entails a certain attitude towards past architecture, an act of interpretation of the past, which requires a new outlook. Though architects should tread carefully and responsibly with regard to past architecture, the past should not cast its shadow on the architect’s imagination, but rather be the grain of inspiration for future change and development. One should not consider the past as separate …

Regionalization of Urbanization for Better Built Environment
Abstract: The built environment of the cities is largely governed by the practices being following in planning and developing different land uses on their lands. Reducing land-man ratio, housing shortage, traffic and transportation problems, safety issues, water crisis, solid waste mis-management, sanitation, etc. are the key challenges faced by the bigger cities of India. One of the strongest reasons for these problems has been the inappropriate approach followed in land use …

A Study on Securing the Local Area Network with the Immutable Trust of Blockchain
Abstract: The contemporary Local Area Network (LAN) is the digital circulatory system of the modern enterprise, a vital yet perilously vulnerable ecosystem. Traditional security paradigms, built upon centralized authority models – firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and privileged administrators – increasingly resemble medieval castles in an age of artillery. They present a brittle single point of failure: compromise the center, and the entire kingdom falls. This paper proposes a radical architectural shift, …

Hydraulic Traffic Reduction Mechanism
Abstract: AbstractUrbanization and the surge in vehicle ownership have led to escalating traffic congestion, particularlyin densely populated metropolitan regions. Conventional traffic management systems, which depend onfixed lane structures and pre-set signal timings, often struggle to accommodate the increasing andunpredictable nature of traffic flow. This challenge necessitates the development of adaptive andintelligent traffic management solutions that can dynamically adjust to real-time conditions. A novelapproach to mitigating traffic congestion is the Hydraulic Traffic …

Symbolism in Coptic Architecture: The Power of ‘Meaning’ in Architectural Expression
Abstract: New trends in architecture tend to pursue to duplicate the positive, pleasant effects of historical buildings, away from direct copying from their form or their style. By addressing human cognition to try to decode their meanings, symbols, which were traditionally seen as a sacred language, were used in religious buildings to establish a visual discourse with the worshipers. This paper aims at analyzing the patterns symbolic language in Coptic architecture, …
