Die derzeitige Wohnungskrise hat eine sozial-ökologische Kernproblematik. Dabei ist die sozial ungerechte und ökologisch problematische Verteilung von Wohnfläche meist unsichtbar und wird weder in wissenschaftlichen noch in aktivistischen Kontexten ausreichend als Frage der Flächengerechtigkeit problematisiert. Denn Wohnraum und Fläche in einer Stadt sind keine endlos verfügbaren Güter: Wenn einige Menschen auf viel Raum leben, bleibt für andere Menschen weniger Fläche übrig. Und die Menschen, die am wenigstens für eine Verknappung von Wohnraum verantwortlich sind, leiden am meisten darunter. Dieser Artikel arbeitet zunächst den Begriff der Wohnflächengerechtigkeit heraus, wobei auf die Ungleichverteilung von Wohnfläche und deren gesellschaftliche Implikationen unter derzeitigen Wohnungsverteilungsmechanismen Bezug genommen wird. Anschließend wird der Verbrauch von (Wohn-)Fläche aus ökologischer Perspektive problematisiert. Der Artikel diskutiert scheinbare und transformationsorientierte Lösungs- und Handlungsansätze. Abschließend fordert er in der kritischen Stadtforschung und in aktivistischen Kontexten eine stärkere Debatte um eine Wohnflächengerechtigkeit, deren Verwirklichung gleichermaßen eine soziale wie ökologische Dimension hat.
The "Stapelhaus": Experimental building project on the campus of the Bauhaus-Universität Weimar
(2020)
The project is a cooperation between the bauhaus.ifex and MFPA Weimar and is intended to develop step by step as an experimental student village. Special focus is given to sustainability and construction using different building materials. For the construction of the first room module, CemCel was chosen as a new, lightweight and fibre-based building material.
Die Ruine der Barfüßerkirche in Erfurt stellt eine der letzten Erinnerungen an die Zerstörungen der Stadt im Zweiten Weltkrieg dar. Sie wird bis heute temporär und saisonal kulturell genutzt. Im Rahmen eines Studienprojektes im Sommersemester 2019 wurden an der Bauhaus-Universität Weimar, betreut durch die Professur Denkmalpflege und Baugeschichte und unterstützt vom Initiativkreis Barfüßerkirche, Nutzungskonzepte für ein Museum für Mittelalterkunst und für einen Tagungsort untersucht. Der vorliegende Band dokumentiert die 14 studentischen Entwürfe, die für ein Weiterbauen an der Barfüßerkirche entstanden sind.

This article focuses on further developments of the background-oriented schlieren (BOS) technique to visualize convective indoor air flow, which is usually defined by very small density gradients. Since the light rays deflect when passing through fluids with different densities, BOS can detect the resulting refractive index gradients as integration along a line of sight. In this paper, the BOS technique is used to yield a two-dimensional visualization of small density gradients. The novelty of the described method is the implementation of a highly sensitive BOS setup to visualize the ascending thermal plume from a heated thermal manikin with temperature differences of minimum 1 K. To guarantee steady boundary conditions, the thermal manikin was seated in a climate laboratory. For the experimental investigations, a high-resolution DLSR camera was used capturing a large field of view with sufficient detail accuracy. Several parameters such as various backgrounds, focal lengths, room air temperatures, and distances between the object of investigation, camera, and structured background were tested to find the most suitable parameters to visualize convective indoor air flow. Besides these measurements, this paper presents the analyzing method using cross-correlation algorithms and finally the results of visualizing the convective indoor air flow with BOS. The highly sensitive BOS setup presented in this article complements the commonly used invasive methods that highly influence weak air flows.
While Public-Private Partnership (PPP) is widely adopted across various sectors, it raises a question on its meagre utilisation in the housing sector. This paper, therefore, gauges the perspective of the stakeholders in the building industry towards the application of PPP in various building sectors together with housing. It assesses the performance reliability of PPP for housing by learning possible take-aways from other sectors. The role of key stakeholders in the industry becomes highly responsible for an informed understanding and decision-making. To this end, a two-tier investigation was conducted including surveys and expert interviews, with several stakeholders in the PPP industry in Europe, involving the public sector, private sector, consultants, as well as other community/user representatives.
The survey results demonstrated the success rate with PPPs, major factors important for PPPs such as profitability or end-user acceptability, the prevalent practices and trends in the PPP world, and the majority of support expressed in favour of the suitability of PPP for housing. The interviews added more detailed dimensions to the understanding of the PPP industry, its functioning and enabling the formation of a comprehensive outlook. The results present the perspective, approaches, and experiences of stakeholders over PPP practices, current trends and scenarios and their take on PPP in housing. It shall aid in understanding the challenges prevalent in the PPP approach for implementation in housing and enable the policymakers and industry stakeholders to make provisions for higher uptake to accelerate housing provision.
Piping erosion is one form of water erosion that leads to significant changes in the landscape and environmental degradation. In the present study, we evaluated piping erosion modeling in the Zarandieh watershed of Markazi province in Iran based on random forest (RF), support vector machine (SVM), and Bayesian generalized linear models (Bayesian GLM) machine learning algorithms. For this goal, due to the importance of various geo-environmental and soil properties in the evolution and creation of piping erosion, 18 variables were considered for modeling the piping erosion susceptibility in the Zarandieh watershed. A total of 152 points of piping erosion were recognized in the study area that were divided into training (70%) and validation (30%) for modeling. The area under curve (AUC) was used to assess the effeciency of the RF, SVM, and Bayesian GLM. Piping erosion susceptibility results indicated that all three RF, SVM, and Bayesian GLM models had high efficiency in the testing step, such as the AUC shown with values of 0.9 for RF, 0.88 for SVM, and 0.87 for Bayesian GLM. Altitude, pH, and bulk density were the variables that had the greatest influence on the piping erosion susceptibility in the Zarandieh watershed. This result indicates that geo-environmental and soil chemical variables are accountable for the expansion of piping erosion in the Zarandieh watershed.
This study aims to evaluate a new approach in modeling gully erosion susceptibility (GES) based on a deep learning neural network (DLNN) model and an ensemble particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm with DLNN (PSO-DLNN), comparing these approaches with common artificial neural network (ANN) and support vector machine (SVM) models in Shirahan watershed, Iran. For this purpose, 13 independent variables affecting GES in the study area, namely, altitude, slope, aspect, plan curvature, profile curvature, drainage density, distance from a river, land use, soil, lithology, rainfall, stream power index (SPI), and topographic wetness index (TWI), were prepared. A total of 132 gully erosion locations were identified during field visits. To implement the proposed model, the dataset was divided into the two categories of training (70%) and testing (30%). The results indicate that the area under the curve (AUC) value from receiver operating characteristic (ROC) considering the testing datasets of PSO-DLNN is 0.89, which indicates superb accuracy. The rest of the models are associated with optimal accuracy and have similar results to the PSO-DLNN model; the AUC values from ROC of DLNN, SVM, and ANN for the testing datasets are 0.87, 0.85, and 0.84, respectively. The efficiency of the proposed model in terms of prediction of GES was increased. Therefore, it can be concluded that the DLNN model and its ensemble with the PSO algorithm can be used as a novel and practical method to predict gully erosion susceptibility, which can help planners and managers to manage and reduce the risk of this phenomenon.
