B.Arch., M.Arch., 1RA-PRC<\/strong><\/span> Research Topic:\u00a0Pedestrian Comfort in Street and Its Relationship with Street Environment and Morphology: The Case of Hong Kong<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Abstract:<\/span><\/strong> The urban outdoor environment plays a significant role in achieving sustainability. A comfortable outdoor urban space could benefits the city physically, environmentally, economically, and socially. In a city with extremely high density like Hong Kong, street is a more representative and frequently used public outdoor space in urban area rather than parks or plazas, but street environment and the pedestrians\u2019 perception of comfort are often neglected in most researches of this field.<\/span><\/p>\n This study aims at a comprehensive research of the correlation between morphology of streets, street physical environment and street pedestrian comfort level in Hong Kong. This correlation will enhance our understanding of environment and comfort situation in Hong Kong streets and help to design more comfortable streets in the future.<\/span><\/p>\n Three research questions are developed based on this aim:<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a01) What factors of the Hong Kong streets influent the street physical environment and pedestrians\u2019 comfort level?<\/span><\/p>\n 2) Since human physical comfort level could be calculated via environment data, is there any difference between the measurement results and the calculated results, why and how to calibrate?<\/span><\/p>\n 3)How to improve the street environment and street pedestrians\u2019 comfort from the perspective of urban design?<\/span><\/p>\n Typical streets in Hong Kong will be studied; environmental and pedestrians\u2019 data will be collected; physical environmental simulation by computer is also included in the research methodology.<\/span> People<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_menu menu_id=”7″ submenu_direction=”downwards” active_link_color=”#000000″ disabled_on=”on|off|off” _builder_version=”4.24.2″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”-27px||||false|false” custom_css_free_form=”.et_pb_menu_0 .et-menu-nav li{|| width:100%;||}” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_menu][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text” _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font=”Abel||||” text_font_size=”15″ text_line_height=”1em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” use_border_color=”off” border_color=”#ffffff” border_style=”solid” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Alumni<\/span><\/p>\n Yiling Chen<\/span><\/p>\n Qun Dai<\/span><\/p>\n Jiawei Yao<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Anqi Zhang B.Arch., M.Arch., 1RA-PRC Anqi Zhang is a PHD candidate in the Department\u00a0of Urban Planning and Design at the University\u00a0of Hong Kong.
