A presente pesquisa, desenvolvida no Mestrado em Artes Visuais da Escola de Belas Artes – UFBA - na linha de Processos Criativos, aborda os aspectos teóricos e práticos voltados para as intervenções artísticas realizadas nos espaços abertos/fechados da urbe. A relevância dessas intervenções nos espaços públicos se apresenta como forma de ressignificar uma estética do cotidiano. O trabalho tem como objetivo propor uma reflexão acerca do poder simbólico, do controle e vigilância na paisagem urbana, assim como sobre as relações sócio-espaciais fragmentadas diante da demarcação territorial e das fronteiras codificadas pelos impedimentos: espaciais, visuais e corporais. O olhar do artista contemporâneo se apropria, assim, desses espaços e estabelece suas ações no sentido de ampliar uma discussão em torno das imagens e dos objetos que o cerca, possibilitando mudanças na paisagem urbana tanto no contexto social quanto na percepção desse mesmo contexto.

Esta tesis estudia la gestión del espacio público en Barcelona en la era neoliberal reciente mediante tres perspectivas. La primera, a nivel municipal, analiza la localización, la tipología y la distribución de las inversiones municipales en espacio público. La segunda, en la que se pasa a la escala de distrito, indaga sobre las transformaciones de diversos espacios y sus diseños actuales en Ciutat Vella y Nou Barris. La tercera, que se adentra en el ámbito de las relaciones sociales, examina las consecuencias de lo anterior en las conductas de los individuos. A lo largo de estas páginas se evidencia cómo el modo de gestión municipal del espacio público ha priorizado la producción económica sobre las formas de reproducción social articulando los impulsos del capitalismo en Ciutat Vella y, Barcelona en general, y cómo, en Nou Barris, se pasó de una gestión paternalista con fines políticos a diseños homogéneos como los del resto de la ciudad.
This thesis developments three perspectives about how the public space has been managed in the neoliberal era in Barcelona. First, it has been analysed how the local investments are localised, distributed and classified in the public space in Barcelona City. Second, the research shows how different areas the both districts, Ciutat Vella and Nou Barris, have been transformed and designed. Finally, the last analysis examines how the spatial transformations, mentioned above, have influenced upon the social relationship of the users in the studied areas. Municipal management about public space in Barcelona City increasingly articulates the impulses of capitalist production rather than social reproduction. This process is consolidated in Ciutat Vella but, also, in Barcelona City. In Nou Barris, a homogenised design, similar to the rest of the city, has replaced a more paternalist management of the space.

Aoun, Nadine. "Modeling and flexible predictive control of buildings space-heating demand in district heating systems". Thesis, Université Paris-Saclay (ComUE), 2019. http://www.theses.fr/2019SACLC104.
In District Heating Systems (DHSs), buildings Space-Heating (SH) demand management conventionally relies on a heating curve: when the outdoor temperature drops, the internal SH system supply water temperature is raised. This control mode, referred to as Weather-Compensation Control (WCC), offers widely recognized assets in terms of simplicity and robustness. However, WCC does not account for the building thermal inertia, and consequently, it does not allow modulation of its demand. SH demand modulation is the control action of strategically altering the indoor thermal comfort conditions within an energetic and/or economic optimization framework. It is a key measure in flexible demand control strategies, which seek loads shifting and peaks shaving to allow sustainable commitment of energy resources in favour of renewable power penetration and waste heat recovery.The work presented in this thesis aims at developing a flexible Model Predictive Control (MPC) strategy for SH demand, applicable at large scale in DHSs.Firstly, a thermal dynamic simulator of a residential building with a radiator SH circuit connected to a DHS substation is developed. It allows the definition of multiple case study buildings, well-representative of the french residential stock, and constitutes the virtual experimental environment for our research. Then, a methodology to obtain a control-oriented Reduced-Order Model (ROM) for the building and its SH system is proposed. It starts by defining the ROM structure based on physical knowledge, and proceeds to parameters identification by meta-heuristic optimization using data generated by the simulator. The parametric identification approach evaluates the possibility of carrying out this task by relying solely on data available at the substation level, refraining from using indoor temperature measurements, personal data assumed to be unavailable at large scale for technical, economic and legal reasons. Finally, MPC is implemented to schedule the SH supply water temperature as function of weather forecasts and energy price variations. The flexible controller is designed to solve a constrained linear optimization problem according to the receding horizon principle. It embeds the linearized ROM equations within the problem formulation and makes an optimal trade-off between energy consumption costs and thermal discomfort, the degree of flexibility to modulate SH demand being defined through dedicated tuning parameters

The contemporary world lives the reality of the culture of fear, culminating in a society under constant surveillance. And the surveillance cameras are part of the urban scenario being necessary to exercise of controlling and security. This paper aims to identify how the individual is incurred as a subject before surveillance. Insecurity, fear and social conflicts guided by contemporary capitalism. This is a qualitative exploratory study that pursued to know the current surveillance control universe established in the contemporary world. The following study of the surveillance cameras usage in Goiânia uses as a theoretical and methodological referential the discourse analysis (DA) based on the method of Eni P. Orlandi (2005). All the evoked notions and theories such as power, knowledge, subjectivity and discourse, in view of authors as Foucault (2009: 2008: 2007: 2006: 1999a: 1999b: 1987), Guattari and Rolnik (2011: 1992), Deleuze (2005: 2001: 1992) and Agamben (2009), are worked in the theoretical chapters and resumed during the analysis process. Were interviewed passers-by and traders present in the monitored areas as well as representatives of the monitoring central station. Throughout the analysis and interviews the attention was turned to the process of subjectivity of the subject. Their subjection process (acceptance and resistance/biopower) and still the ways of knowing and the power present in the relation between the subject and the surveillance cameras. From these categories of analysis and interviews it was observed the presence of a hegemonic discourse where the subject is incurred by the relation of forces, modes coercion and control that they are involved in, developing a behavior characteristic of biopower. However this same subject is constituted according to the environment they live it is also the subject that was not characterized by a unique behavior in their own way to make themselves the subject, becoming, therefore, mass of a hegemonic discourse, absolutely controllable by a security system, sold only as something to benefit society. Keywords: Subjectivity. Surveillance. Cameras. Insecurity. Urban space.
A contemporaneidade vive a cultura do medo, que culminou em uma sociedade altamente vigiada. As câmeras de vigilância compõem o cenário urbano por se fazerem necessárias ao exercício do controle e da segurança. O presente trabalho pretende identificar como o indivíduo se constitui enquanto sujeito diante da vigilância, da insegurança, do medo e dos conflitos sociais pautados no capitalismo contemporâneo. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa e exploratória que buscou conhecer o atual universo de controle e vigilância estabelecidos na contemporaneidade. O estudo do uso de câmeras de vigilância em Goiânia faz uso da Análise do Discurso (AD) baseada na obra de Eni P. Orlandi (2005). Todas as noções e teorias evocadas, como as do poder, do saber, do dispositivo, da subjetivação e do discurso, na visão de autores como Foucault (2009: 2008: 2007: 2006: 1999: 1999: 1987), Guattari e Rolnik (2011: 1992), Deleuze (2005: 2001: 1992) e Agamben (2009), são trabalhadas nos capítulos teóricos e retomadas durante o processo de análise. Foram entrevistados transeuntes e comerciantes presentes nas áreas monitoradas, assim como representantes da central de monitoramento. Ao longo das entrevistas e análise, a atenção voltou-se para os processos de subjetivação do sujeito, a seus processos de assujeitamento (aceitação e resistência/ biopoder) e ainda às formas de saber e poder presentes na relação entre sujeito e câmeras de vigilância. A partir dessas categorias de análise e das entrevistas, observou-se a presença de um discurso hegemônico, em que o sujeito se constitui por meio das relações de forças, modos de coerção e controle que o envolve, desenvolvendo um comportamento de total aceitação e submissão as formas de controle e poder regentes na sociedade, comportamento este que é próprio do biopoder. Contudo, esse mesmo sujeito que se constitui conforme o meio no qual está inserido, é também aquele que não se caracterizou por um comportamento singular, num modo próprio de se fazer sujeito; tornando-se, portanto, massa de um discurso hegemônico, absolutamente controlável por um sistema de segurança, que é vendido apenas como algo a beneficiar a sociedade.

A partir de um esforço para entender a violência urbana, procuramos contribuir com o debate sobre os antagonismos urbanos, que revelam uma oposição objetiva e subjetiva entre os sujeitos e grupos sociais da maior metrópole brasileira - São Paulo - à luz das transformações globais que tem o espaço metropolitano como condição e das redefinições inerentes à metrópole, aceleradas pela globalização dos negócios e da governança. A dinâmica de reprodução da metrópole se revela perversa, desigual, fragmentada e segregada, condição e resultado de relacionamentos urbanos para os quais se restringem os meios e os campos de negociação, assim a violência emerge como meio político e como um dos elementos capazes de construir identidades e estilos de vida, tanto dos grupos sociais estabelecidos, quanto dos grupos sociais com déficit de poder. O objetivo principal foi investigar a lógica e a difusão da violência entre os sujeitos outsiders da metrópole e seus respectivos territórios, que, como a violência organizada entre os grupos sociais mais poderosos da Região Metropolitana, ajuda a configurar uma metrópole que militariza seus problemas, fragmenta o tecido social e estilhaça os seus territórios. Realizamos observações de campo no centro histórico e na zona leste da Cidade de São Paulo e estabelecemos diálogos informais com os habitantes de áreas marginalizadas, genericamente chamadas de periferias, para então analisar as representações, autorepresentações, leituras sociais e espaciais que estes sujeitos fazem de si e do seu grupo social, e dos grupos sociais de alto poder, buscando compreender como estes sujeitos enxergam cada fração da cidade, diante do medo, da insegurança e da militarização que vem caracterizando os territórios metropolitanos.

The main objective was to investigate the logic of violence and the spread between the subjects of outsiders and their respective metropolitan areas, such as that organized violence between the most powerful social groups in the Metropolitan Region, to help set up a city with process of militarization of their problems, the tissue fragments social and splinter the territories within the metropolis. We fielded observations in the historic center and in the eastern city of Sao Paulo and to establish informal dialogue with the residents of vulnerable areas, generally called the suburbs, then to consider the representations, auto-representations, reading and social space that they are subject you and your group, and social groups at high power, trying to understand how these subjects see each fraction of the city, ahead of fear, insecurity and the militarization that has characterized the metropolitan areas.

Our life evolves as an interaction between predictable and unpredictable patterns. Variations and impediments stimulate our free, non-mechanical impulses towards unpredictable patterns. At the macroscopic level. history can be seen through an ever-repeating cycle moving from a cumulative trend towards order. to a decaying process. Through a similar viewing lens the past trends that regulated the physical context have been moving from concentrated and dogmatic ideologies. to dispersed and spontaneous ones. Since the 18th century. the Machine Age is geared towards the perfection of the machine. Within this frame of development. it took no more than 200 years for the trend of "machine perfection" to be explicitly applied. at the microscopic level. upon the urban environment. At the urban scale of design. The internationally accepted manifestations of the Chart of Athens have been projecting dogmatic patterns of development: The ''ideal" definitions of uses and "orderliness", inside and outside the built shells. have brought about the problem of segregating the liveliness of the city. Such regulating orders have negated the particularities of the public spaces: the spaces where the mixture of both intended and unintended patterns of activities. and regulated and unregulated forms. acclaimed publicness through time. The physical structure of all urbanizations is the result of the antagonistic interaction between concentrated totalities on the one hand. and dispersive partialities on the other. The first process is the product of the aforementioned deterministic development while the second one is the more unpredictable. evolutionary development that follows. My goal ·is to bring both processes into equal consideration when taking on the role of shaping a micro- scale. public space. It seems that the recent acknowledgments qualities in the "street", the "square". the "19th-century fabric", are weak in challenging the negative aspects of the International style. They still do not escape from generating guiding and deterministic environments. Dissipative urban space aims at a rewardingly rich public experience by embodying. yet not determining. both regulated and "unregulated" physical patterns.

Dans ce projet de mémoire l'auteur se prête à l'étude des "foules éclairs" (flash mobs) et des "jeux urbains" (urban gaming) contemporains en tant que manifestation de relations médiatisées par ordinateur et actualisées dans des espaces actuels. À l'encontre de ceux qui voient chez les foules éclairs l'effet démocratisateur des nouvelles technologies de communication, l'auteur y voit plutôt un effet de dépolitisation de par la même participation et la communication médiatisée. L'analyse des dispositifs sociaux et visuels qui sont utilisés pour les resprésenter ainsi que pour les organiser s'ajoute à l'approche marxiste à l'espace social pour enfin rendre l'hypothèse que ces activités laissent à un temps différé l'action politique et, de plus, rend l'espace social aux effets de valorization capitaliste.

Jonathan Woetzel, Jan Mischke, and Sangeeth Ram once wrote a comprehensive policy paper in the Harvard Business Review that the world’s housing crisis doesn’t need a revolutionary solution. Assuredly, what the world needs is an innovative solution to the housing crisis. Though urban researchers have long been concerned with the transformation of the urban fabric, less attention has been paid to the unraveling of the materiality of urban processes. With state intervention in housing and critical infrastructure provision far from sight, urban dwellers, especially in the global south, are turning to alternative strategies to deal with the realities of urban life. The container has effectively transcended its core mandate as the facilitator of global trade. Against this backdrop, this thesis deconstructs containerization from the global political economy to critical urban studies, a link, frequently ignored, in mainstream literature. More specifically, this thesis investigates the normalization of urban anomalies, such as the containerization of urban space. The thesis also explores the negative effects of container urbanism, mostly the risk to spatial planning and sustainable urban development. The containerization of urban space is an epoch-defining process and a watershed moment in the urban dynamic of Ghana. Fundamentally, the container anthropomorphizes the urban condition. The container perfectly analogizes bare life and exposes the lived realities of a large section of the urban population within the logic of glocal neoliberal governance. This thesis subscribes to the notion that the concepts of disruption, momentum, and risk are useful for understanding the mechanisms and framework for theorizing the materiality of urban processes such as the containerization of urban space. The thesis adopts both qualitative and quantitative approaches, using six neighborhoods within the Accra Metropolitan Area of Ghana as the primary case study. The thesis draws further comparative cases from cities in the United Kingdom, South Africa, and the United States of America. The empirical strategy also consists of secondary data drawn from various sources. The analysis shows that whereas container urbanism serves as an expressive symbology of architectural grandeur, monumentalism, and an ostentatious display of environmentally conscious living in the western urban discourse, such interventions in the global south are genuine attempts by low-income households to claim the right to the city. This thesis shows that the crisis and the ethos of rage against the traditional property market have accelerated and magnified the transition towards experimentation with ‘containers’ as an alternative process of urban housing and livelihood. The spatiotemporal neighborhood-level analysis reveals that material durability, affordability, and a sense of immediacy underpins the allure of container improvisation. For many, the improvisation of the container has reduced some uncertainties of urban life by ensuring a stable transition into the formal property market. The analysis also shows that container improvisation in Accra is a consequence of fragmentation in the economic and social order. If this thesis has been clear on one singularity, it is that container improvisation is no longer a fringe process in the urban built environment, but increasingly becoming normalized, and hegemonized. The thesis also discusses the implications of container urbanism on the de-professionalization of urban design and the illusion of control by local authorities regarding the incremental and disorderly manifestation of informal urban processes.

motivations, characteristics, spaces they produce and all over process they are entering into together with the specifications of graffiti in Turkey. It demands to unfold the possibilities sheltered in everyday practices looking through graffiti and subsequently revealing out possibilities in graffiti looking through everyday life. It sees the urban space as a social product, which is incomplete without the tactics of the inhabitants and redefined as a result of appropriation. It looks through the history of graffiti, graffiti writers, their motivations and descriptions, working mechanism of the act, spaces chosen and their overall relations to power placed upon urban space in regard to its predescribed theoretical framework reaching out an integrated explanation on play/game theory and resistance it describes. It claims graffiti as a game of the juveniles acting in urban space as their playground.

In the 2009-2010 academic year at the Kansas City Design Center, four students undertook a design project seeking to transform an underutilized traffic median into a usable urban public space. The space, known as “Triangle Park,” is located at Avenida Cesar E. Chavez (West 23rd Street), West Pennsylvania Avenue, and Southwest Boulevard in Kansas City, Missouri. This report describes the existing site conditions and challenges to creating an inviting public space. The report explains how the students arrived at the finalized design using precedent studies, multiple design iterations, and community input from the Westside and Crossroads neighborhood stakeholders. The finalized design focuses on providing connectivity between people, the site, and the city as a whole. Opportunities for connection are offered by improved pedestrian circulation and a comfortable, well-defined outdoor space. Three major structural interventions are proposed: an illuminated overhead canopy beneath the Interstate-35 overpass provides shelter for pedestrians; a raised walking path enhances an already prominent pedestrian route; and a wooden deck provides opportunities for sitting and lingering. The ability of the design to meet the community’s stated needs and to serve as a social public space is evaluated to determine the likelihood of positive and worthwhile project outcomes.

This research studies hyper-dense, non-planned, informally repurposed, and mix-use buildings in contemporary Chinese cities. Growing population density and a booming urban economy in the past decades have created an incentive to re-utilize more lucratively mid- and large-scale, mix-use buildings that occupy prime locations in cities. In these buildings where the current usage exceeds the allowed occupancy and differs from planned and designed purpose, individual actors and relevant stakeholders establish self-organized institutions, along with formal governance, to manage the common-pool resources inside these buildings. The research describes such buildings as an urban complex because of not just the mix-use quality, but also the intertwined, transforming structure of social institutions. As formal and informal institutional setups interact to invent dynamic structures for collective action and governance to address the limited common-pool resources inside the informally repurposed, mix-use buildings, a unique urbanism in the inside begins to emerge. To analyze such an environment, I propose to study such an environment through a holistic lens that takes into account the interaction of spatial organization and existing social networks. Seeing such a unique environment as a lesson for addressing urban informality and commoning in cities at large, I aim to speculate potential guiding principles for improvements or reinvention.
