This interdisciplinary doctoral school focuses on the quantification of the trade-offs between tools and strategies to address essential challenges of future resilient cities.
Doctoral researchers are asked to apply simulation based models to define indicators and metrics at the urban scale on the following main topics: Pollutants, Pedestrian wind, Outdoor comfort, Resources cycles, Flood management and Walkability.
The course structure will be set up to apply the tools from the different scientific realms in a interdisciplinary set up to formulate an integrated proposal modelled on a district in Munich. For the participation, each Doctoral Candidate will receive 2 ECTS.
Dates: April 23-28, 2018
