Developing disruptive mobility scenarios for rural areas. Participatory mobility scenario building in a Belgian village for the year 2050

BackgroundHistorically, quantitative forecasting methods have been used in transport planning. As forecasts can be unreliable to plan for the medium- and long-term, scenario building has recently been increasingly used. However, scenario building methods often fail to take disruptions and wild cards into account, i.e., low probability but high impact events. When unaccounted for, wild card events, like the COVID-19 pandemic, lower the efficacy of scenario building in policy making, as these events may completely disturb the developed scenarios of the future.MethodsIn this paper, we develop and apply a creative and participatory methodology to develop visions and disrupted scenarios for rural mobility. Our research was carried out in the Belgian village of Oetingen, where inhabitants developed more resilient views of the future by creating disrupted mobility scenarios and a preferred mobility vision for their village for the year 2050 in a participatory scenario building exercise. Wild cards related to mobility were collected from mobility experts and inhabitants in three workshops. Inhabitants were engaged to define their mobility vision on a postcard that was distributed to all houses in the village as well as on a project website. Respondents were invited for a follow-up interview in which their preferred mobility vision was subjected to the wild cards, and participants described how these wild cards would change their preferred vision. As children tend to have more creative ideas, they were engaged via workshops at school.ResultsThis process resulted in mobility scenarios for the village for the year 2050 based on the different wild cards, as well as an overall desired vision. We found that the use of wild cards did not significantly change the scenarios when compared to the vision, although it did make the interviewees step outside of their comfort zones. We also found that the citizens did not have more original and less path-dependent ideas in developing wild cards when compared to experts. Lastly, we found that children have many outside-of-the-box suggestions when it comes to the future. Although some of their ideas can be judged as impractical by today’s standards, many ideas had an indirect implication for mobility in the village and gave insights into children’s priorities, as potential future residents of the village.

Past and present Geomorphological hazard and cultural heritage loss in El Castellar castle scarp (central Ebro Basin, Spain)

The ruins of the Medieval castle and village of El Castellar are located on an abrupt 1.2-km-long scarp of Miocene gypsums, in the central sector of the Ebro depression. The Medieval remains of the main El Castellar castle are perched on a 100 m cliff on the Ebro River. Considering the historical and geoarchaeological relevance of El Castellar settlement, this investigation aimed to study the geomorphological and paleoenvironmental context of the site during and after the settlement and its later evolution, including its current state. Geomorphological data suggest that in Medieval times its constructions were favored by the MCA environmental conditions. During that times, the Ebro River was located in a centered position on its floodplain, and lateral alluvial fans protected the scarp from basal erosion. Later, during the LIA, great climatic flows and recurrent floods changed the river dynamics and promoted the river channel movement against the scarp, destabilizing its foot and generating large landslides and rockfalls, thus promoting its retreat. The village buildings and castle at the top of the scarp were seriously damaged. For several reasons, the area is not easily accessible, but it still contains a relevant archaeological heritage that deserves to be studied and preserved.

The Protection and Restoration of Ancient Buildings in Guanzhong Traditional Villages Based on the Improved Priority Algorithm

Architecture is closely related to human development. Different architectural shapes and texture structures reflect the changes of society and the level of social development. They are not only important materials for studying history but also carry the profound significance of human history. However, due to chemical effects, the acid, alkali, salt, and corrosive solvents are applied and produced in the process of industrial production, as well as the corrosive media contained in the atmosphere, groundwater, surface water, and soil will corrode the ancient buildings. The whole picture of many ancient buildings cannot be completely preserved, let alone used as research materials to deeply explore history and humanities. With the development of computer science and technology, we hope to protect and repair traditional ancient buildings through modern technology, which not only respects the long history of the Chinese nation but also helps us better study history through ancient buildings. This paper takes the ancient buildings of traditional villages in Guanzhong, Shanxi Province as an example, optimizes them on the basis of predecessors, and explores the protection and restoration of ancient buildings based on the improved priority algorithm. The results show that the proposed algorithm performs better in the protection and restoration model of ancient buildings than the traditional algorithm.

STRENGTHENING RELIGIOUS EDUCATION AS THE IMPLEMENTATION OF CHARACTER EDUCATION IN DUWET KRAJAN VILLAGE

Juvenile delinquency is a social problem in Indonesia that still requires special attention. Character education is a solution to this problem. The purpose of character education is so that the individual is not affected by bad things so that he is able to join the community. The formation of children's character can be realized strategically through religious education. However, religious education held in schools has not been effective, so a Quran Education Park (TPQ) is needed. The MBKM Village Building Program implemented by the State University of Malang is a form of community service. The service activity was carried out at Mr. Mahsun's house which held TPQ for children in Duwet Krajan Village, Tumpang District. The activity will be held from November 2021 to December 2021. The activity starts at 14.00 until it is finished with a target of 60 children.

This activity is carried out with the hope of instilling character education in children in Duwet Krajan Village.

CULTURE APPROACH AS INNOVATION IN DEVELOPMENT OF INFRASTRUCTURE

The cultural approach to implementing public infrastructure policies is new. The approaches commonly used in implementing policies are structural approaches (organizational roles), procedural and management approaches (network planning and control; program evaluation and review techniques), behavioral approaches: communication, complete information at each stage and a political approach (interdepartemental aspects of politics). This shows that, the cultural approach is an innovation of policy implementation to establish a model of policy implementation innovation with a cultural approach, researchers investigate in a case study of a simultaneous village building program (GSM) in the Tulang Bawang regency of Lampung Province. This study uses a qualitative approach that describes and explains the symptoms and trends in phenomena that appear at the research location.The results obtained, the implementation of the GSMK program is based on the value of mutual cooperation which in local terms Lampung is called sakai sambayan. Sakai Sambayan, covering a broad understanding, such as mutual cooperation, help to help, tolerance to others and to others both morally and materially at times of pleasure and distress.This value provides a spirit in the implementation of the GSMK program in Tulang Bawang Regency. The GSMK program is a movement carried out by, from, and for the people of Tulang Bawang Regency to do good together in an effort to accelerate infrastructure development in 147 villages simultaneously throughout the Tulang Bawang Regency with a budget sourced from non-government organizations, private parties from each village and Community Direct Assistance (BLM) of the APBD of Tulang Bawang Regency.

PHBS stands for Clean and Healthy Behavior. While the notion of Clean and Healthy Living Behavior is a set of behaviors that are practiced on the basis of awareness as a result of learning that makes a person, family, group or community able to help themselves (independently) in the health sector and play an active role in realizing public health (Depkes RI, 2011). . PHBS can be carried out in various settings, namely at home, at school, at work, in public places, and in health institutions. This activity aims to educate and provide insightful knowledge to the community accompanied by practice to the Sei Karang village community about the importance of making efforts to live clean and healthy in daily life. This activity is one of the Independent Learning Programs for Students of the Muslim Nusantara University Al Washliyah, namely the KKNT Village Building Program which was carried out in Sei Karang Village, Galang District, Deli Serdang Regency. Clean and Healthy Lifestyle is basically an effort to transmit experiences regarding healthy living behavior through individuals, groups or the wider community by means of communication channels as a medium for sharing information. There are several steps that can be taken to support this activity, such as the coordination stage with partners, the preparation stage for counseling and training, the implementation stage for the extension and finally the evaluation stage in order to increase knowledge and improve related attitudes and behaviors.

Enhancing the In-Plane Behavior of a Hybrid Timber Frame-Mud and Stone Infill Wall Using PP Band Mesh on One Side.

Traditional village dwellings in China consisting of timber frames with mud and stone infill walls represent an important part of cultural heritage and civilization. Due to the lack of an effective link between the wood frame and the infill and the poor cohesiveness of clay, the masonry infill can collapse during an earthquake, whereas the wood frame suffers minimal damage. In this study, current retrofitting techniques for village buildings were investigated and discussed. A method using polypropylene (PP) band mesh and cement mortar to retrofit the timber frame with a mud and stone infill was proposed and the connection construction details were designed. In-plane static cyclic tests were conducted on two full-scale wood–stone hybrid walls reinforced on one side with different grid sizes of the PP band mesh. The failure behaviors of the reinforced and non-reinforced sides of the specimens were compared, and the failure mechanics and seismic capacity of the two specimens, i.e., the strength, stiffness, ductility, and energy dissipation, were investigated. The results were also compared with those of a previous frame with stone infill without pebbles and no reinforcement. The study indicated that the retrofitting method strengthened the integrity and lateral resistance of the hybrid structure and prevented the collapse of the stone infill of the reinforced surface in a plane earthquake. The grid size of the PP band mesh substantially affected the lateral performance of the reinforced specimens. The hybrid wall with the narrow PP band mesh grid (150 mm × 150 mm) had a higher lateral stiffness (79%) and lateral capacity (50%) than the wall with the wide grid (250 mm × 250 mm). However, the narrow PP band mesh resulted in a lower ductility of the wall than the wide PP band mesh. The involvement of pebbles in the stone infill led to collapses sooner and a weaker lateral resistance than in the structure without pebble infill.

Seismic performance of light steel-natural timber composite beam-column joint in low-rise buildings

Current timber structures or steel-timber composite structures are made of thick steel and glued laminated timber (glulam) with beams and columns connected by high-strength bolts used in high-rise and large-span structures. However, there is no high strength requirement for low-rise buildings in villages and towns. The composite action of thin-walled steel and fast-growing timber is selected to constitute the structural members together, which are connected using plain bolts for a structural system suitable for residential houses in villages and towns. Thin-walled steel can be used to minimize the initial defects and material variability of fast-growing timber. To meet the requirements of the light steel-fast-growing timber composite structural system, a fully bolted joint is designed in this paper. The quasi-static tests of seven joints are carried out to analyze their seismic performance. The results show that the seismic performance of joints can meet the requirements of low-rise residential buildings in villages and towns. The finite element simulation of the test specimens is also carried out, and the modeling approach is described in detail to analyze similar structures further. Finally, the component-based expression was used to propose a simplified spring model to calculate the joints' initial rotational stiffness and ultimate capacity and compared with the experimental results for practical applications.

Reconstruction Design and Research of Ancient Villages from the Perspective of Homestays—— Taking Liangshuiquan Village in Guling Mountain, Qi County as an Example

Homestay refers to a new type of hotel building that provides tourists with accommodation and rest, feeling the local customs and experiencing the local living conditions. As my country's rural tourism industry continues to heat up and ferment, my country's country homestay industry is gradually emerging. Old buildings in traditional ancient villages are generally faced with the fate of being demolished and rebuilt at will. How to rationally use the existing resources of ancient villages to transform homestays is a question worthy of study. The article mainly takes Lingquan Wonderland of Liangshuiquan Village, Guling Mountain, Qi County, Hebi City, Henan Province as an example, and takes the renovation design and research of ancient villages from the perspective of homestay as the theme. By analyzing the transformation design methods of Lingquan Wonderland in the homestay cluster, the specific design methods are analyzed and summarized.

Коллекция экспедиционных фотографий А.И. Скасси в собрании отдела рукописей и книжных памятников Научной библиотеки ТГУ

The article highlights the almost unexplored issue of the collection of photographs preserved in the Department of Manuscripts and Book Monuments of the Scientific Library of Tomsk State University. The photographs were taken by August Ivanovich Skassi. The author of the article managed to find biographical information about the photographer. As a military topographer, Skassi participated in scientific expeditions in Central and Central Asia. Knowing about his work, Grigory Nikolaevich Potanin invited Scassi on an expedition to China and Tibet, which lasted three years -from 1884 to 1886. It is known that Scassi made a topographic survey of the area along the route of Potanin's journey (more than 7 thousand kilometers long). In addition, he took about 200 photographs, which depicted the urban landscapes of China and the people who met on the expedition path. The author of the article notes that the works of G.N. Potanina, A.I. Scassi, A.V. Potanina in the Chinese expedition were awarded medals of the Imperial Russian Geographical Society. Potanin highly valued the photographs of Skassi and kept some of them in his personal collection. It is known that in 1920 G.N. Potanin died and was buried in Tomsk, and his collection of photographs, together with his manuscripts and the library, first came to the Siberian Research Institute, and then to the library of Tomsk University. And a few decades later, a library employee N.V. Vasenkin carried out the attribution of these photographs. The collection of 16 photographs is stored in the collection of the Department of Manuscripts and Book Monuments of the Scientific Library of Tomsk State University as part of the Potanin fund. The photographs depict the Buddhist monasteries of Gumbum, Kadan-Syume and Wutai, the shrine of Yun-zhao-si in Wutai, the streets and individual buildings of Chinese cities and villages. The collection contains photographs of the family of the Dzungarian prince and the family of a Mongol official from Amdos, as well as portraits of ordinary people in China. Photographs of Tangut men in national clothes and servants of the Buddhist monastery Labran are unique. Most of the photographs are pasted onto cardboard or forms from the photo studio where they were printed. Many of the photographs have handwritten text made by G.N. Potanin. The photographs are well preserved, but are damaged: the paper has turned yellow, there are tears along the edges, and others. The collection of photographs by A.I. Skassi has reliable information about the history and culture of China and is an important historical source.
