Cunningham Tim: Human Rights and the
Architecture of Conflict

Human Rights and the Architecture of Conflict

Designer Experience

Spatial Design with Children

In Olympic Urbanism: Rome to Rio, Judith Grant Long asks whether the requirements of building for the Olympic Games are compatible with the long-term interests of host cities. Drawing on extensive research in former host cities from Rome 1960 to Rio de Janeiro 2016, Long assesses claims that the Olympic Games serve as a catalyst for urban development by comparing the aspirations revealed in host city bid packages with the actual outcomes evident in post-game use of sports venues, athletes' and media villages, ceremonial parks, and the transportation and other infrastructure built to accommodate the games. The analysis reveals that urban outcomes have been both better and worse than commonly understood, and points to the changing fortunes of global cities and the evolving business model of the Modern Olympic Movement as key factors in a story that challenges the concept of "Olympic legacy" and recent efforts to "right-size" the games. Calling for more responsible leadership on urban issues from both host cities and the International Olympic Committee, Olympic Urbanism provides guidelines to recalibrate the scale of Olympic infrastructure, to reduce the financial burdens placed upon host cities, and to guide better planning for the Olympic Games as well as other sports mega-events.

This book aims to provide the background knowledge, necessary tools, and guidelines for rationalized and consistent engineering approaches to design and construction in and on jointed and faulted rock. Three avenues will be exploited to that effect: mechanics, empiricism and analysis (including numerical analysis). The text will be permeated with informative and illustrated case records from the authors' total of 40 countries sphere of experience. Solutions of every-day problems will be interspersed with experiences from the longest tunnel, the widest cavern, the highest dam, the site of the largest underground power house, and the problems with the deepest TBM tunnels.

Engineering in Jointed and Faulted Rock aims to provide the background knowledge, necessary tools, and guidelines for rationalized and consistent engineering approaches to design and construction in and on jointed and faulted rock. Three avenues will be exploited to that effect: mechanics, empiricism and analysis (including numerical analysis).The book is uniquely dedicated to the theme of engineering in jointed rock to a much greater degree than earlier texts in rock mechanics and rock engineering, and there will be fundamental treatment and examples of the characterization, strength, deformability and permeability of joints and, in separate chapters, the same for rock masses. These fundamentals will be followed by their application in numerical models, for developing the engineering design for rock slopes, tunnels, bridge foundations, dam abutments, nuclear waste disposal, mine shafts and roadways. Empirical design will be validated and improved by numerical modelling where necessary.The text will be permeated with informative and illustrated case records from the authors’ total of 40 countries sphere of experience. Solutions of every-day problems will be interspersed with experiences from the longest tunnel, the widest cavern, the highest dam, the site of the largest underground power house, and the problems with the deepest TBM tunnels.This much needed text on the mechanics of jointed rock, based on extensive experiments and measurements both in the laboratory and in the field, will be indispensable for the rock engineering and rock mechanics community.

What are children's rights and why are they so fundamental? This insightful text offers an accessible and conceptually coherent guide to the theory and practice of children's rights, grounded in research. It explains the provisions of the United Nations Convention for the Rights of the Child; identifies developments in legislation and policy; and explores the tensions and opportunities inherent in combining a rights based approach with other discourses influencing professional practice across a range of practice contexts. Informed by both young peoples' and professionals' own experiences, this book is essential reading for students and practitioners in education, health and social care.

What are children’s rights and where do they come from? Why is it necessary for children and young people to have their rights defined? What difficulties do practitioners face in developing a rights based approach to their daily work with children, young people and their families? What can children and young people tell us about their experiences and perspectives regarding rights?This milestone text by a multidisciplinary author team offers an accessible and conceptually coherent guide to the theory and practice of children’s rights, grounded in extensive research. It explains the provisions of the United Nations Convention for the Rights of the Child; identifies developments in legislation and policy; and explores the tensions and opportunities inherent in applying a rights based approach in a range of contexts, including:<ul> <li>Education</li> <li>Child protection and family support</li> <li>Kinship care, fostering and residential care</li> <li>Mental, physical and sexual health</li> <li>Leisure and play</li> <li>Youth justice </li> <li>New risks including human trafficking, child sexual exploitation and online abuse.</li> </ul>Rich in insight from both young peoples‘ and professionals‘ experiences, the book explores how a children’s rights perspective can be applied in combination with other professional discourses including early intervention and prevention; risk assessment; evidence based practice; and relationship based practice. It considers children’s participation in decision-making and the importance of effective monitoring and coordination in practice. Timely and wide-ranging, this book is essential reading for students and practitioners across the fields of education, health and social care.

Structural Reliability in Civil Engineering

Design Research in Architecture

Perry Kulper and Nat Chard work with conditions of uncertainty, developing a contingent architecture that provokes and absorbs the unforeseen as well as the more predictable relationships into which architecture can enter. In mainstream practice and research there is an emphasis on achieving a certain outcome. Those who wish to have a building made make a prediction - what they want to take place - while the architect attempts to make that prediction come true. In Kulper and Chard's work the outcome is unknown- they have developed their own working and research practices to take this into account. In different ways, they both use the act of making drawings as a way of engaging with uncertain conditions and enrolling a range of incomplete relationships. By acting on these sorts of relations they are breaking new ground by taking up the unpredictable, a marginal area relative to the ordained territories claimed for architectural discussions. Without the need or desire for a single resolved project they work in parallel, Kulper in a basement in Ann Arbor, Michigan and Chard from his attic in Winnipeg, Manitoba. The work of one is contaminated by the arrival of a new drawing or reference from the other, while the reflection on the exchanged material comes from the other person's position rather than confirming an agreed target. This condition is heighted by an unspoken policy of exchanging work with very little commentary so that any disturbance provided by these reflections is sincere and without contrivance. While Kulper and Chard have established rigor in their respective research methods, their collaboration disrupts the stability that such discipline provides. It is a collaboration that provides the sort of disturbances that bring a helpful and real uncertainty to the process of design. Proposing architecture for uncertain conditions touches many paradoxes and the work plays with paradox to nurture uncertainty - as another source of disturbance. The work also

Design for Cultural Commoning explores the role of design-based thinking and practice in the construction of cultural common spaces. Torange Khonsari shows how the commons in the cultural domain can be a driver towards addressing a range of critical community and societal concerns, from citizen apathy and lack of trust, to extractive production of cultural objects exhausting our earth's resources and exacerbating the gap between the powerful and the powerless. A rich and engaging volume, it combines theory, methodology and practice to bridge disciplinary boundaries, from commons, urbanism, psychology, politics, anthropology and sociology, with practical design methodology.
