This book describes the urgent challenge faced by cities worldwide to become resilient to climate change impacts. This challenge goes further than the ability to resist the impacts of extreme weather conditions. Coping with climate impacts and the ability to recover from them are equally important, as well as the capacity to adapt to the effects of climate change and the ability to transform the entire urban system. The book explores how the resilience journey for coastal cities in particular encompasses using scientific knowledge but also the knowledge of citizens and practitioners. Measures and strategies on different scales are needed, from national scale all the way down to neighbourhood, street level and building level. Representing the holistic nature of climate resilience, this collection contains unique insights from leading scientists and practitioners in areas of expertise such as engineering, social sciences and urban design. It will be a valuable resource for scholars, students, practitioners and policy makers interested in the development of resilient and sustainable urban environments.

This book highlights state-of-the-art research findings on floating developments in both inland and coastal waters with focus on living, recreation and working offshore. It includes six themes: (1) business case and real estate development, (2) spatial planning and architecture, (3) food and energy production, (4) ecological impact and nature-based solutions, (5) governance and social impact and (6) design and engineering of (infra)structures. The book presents key issues addressed when utilizing water space. It gives an overview of findings and discussions from the world’s leading experts from the industry, policymakers, entrepreneurs, researchers and identifies new opportunities as well as fosters collaboration on floating projects for a more climate-adaptive, socially inclusive, sustainable and better world.

Large Floating Solutions
Design, Construction, Legality of Offshore Structures and Buoyant Urbanism
Inbunden, Engelska, 2025
2 002 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
Large Floating Solutions builds on the foundations laid in Large Floating Structures: Technological Advances, extending the analysis to the next generation of Very Large Floating Structures (VLFS) as integrated, climate-adaptive urban systems. This volume provides a comprehensive examination of the engineering, environmental, and architectural innovations required to deliver modular, resilient floating cities, alongside offshore energy, aquaculture, and transport infrastructure. It addresses the complex legal, regulatory, and governance frameworks that underpin buoyant urbanism, including property rights, environmental compliance, and international law, and considers the role of artificial intelligence and autonomous maritime systems in urban management. Together, these contributions position floating infrastructure as a critical solution to escalating global water challenges.
