INTRODUCTION It is with great humility and profound thanksgiving to God that I stand before you today to present this inaugural lecture titled “High-tech Architectural Design of Low-energy Places”. Although the choice of the title was made about a decade ago, I strongly believe that the subject remains topical, and that it continues to encapsulate my academic and professional aspirations and endeavours over the last three decades. Architects always dreamt of buildings that would not only be heavenly in beauty and stylistically significant throughout history, but that would last forever, would be comfortable and require little or no energy during construction and occupation. Moore's law (Moore, 1965) gave even pessimists hope that at least part of this utopia could be achieved during our lifetimes through technology. Today, arguable illiterates manipulate in their palms ten times more powerful technology than teams of scientists sweated in multi-storey buildings to operate just a few decades ago. Yet, advances in architectural technology have been more evolutionary than revolutionary. Many developing countries still struggle with architectural technology problems to which solutions were found centuries ago. Even advanced countries have been forced to re- evaluate the sustainability of their highest architectural achievements, faced as they are by new threats of economic depression, climate change, natural disasters and terrorism. This lecture is a general discussion about architectural design. It emphasizes the architectural design of meaningful places, as opposed to buildings and complexes. The focus is on places that use little or no energy in construction and exploitation. 1 The role that Information and Communication Technology can play in the design of such low-energy places is the essence of this discourse. Architecture Today What is architecture? Despite pretentious custody claims by our colleagues in Information and Communication Technology, the paternity of architecture remains unquestionable. Architecture is the art and science of designing and constructing buildings and other physical structures. These other physical structures include open areas, communities and other artificial constructions and environments. Architecture covers all aspects of the built environment, from the macro level (urban design, landscape architecture) to the micro level (interior design, furniture design, construction detailing), and including housing, institutional buildings, sporting and recreational facilities, industrial design, rural architecture, site supervision, remodelling, conservation and restoration. Architecture is an art, but it differs from most other art forms by possessing utility. At the other end of the spectrum, engineering becomes architecture the moment aesthetics becomes a significant factor. When is architecture? One of the earliest treatises on the subject, De Architectura (On Architecture, aka The Ten Books on Architecture), by the 1st century (BC) Roman architect Marcus Vitrivius Pollio, established three requirements – firmness, utility and beauty (Vitruvius, 1914). Today, structural stability, functionality and aesthetics remain cardinal to architecture, and the various styles and movements are only reflections of the priority ordering of these qualities, and the emphasis placed on each. Why is architecture? The origin of architecture can be traced to when man first created a physical structure and, like his own creator, also “saw that it was good” (Genesis, Chapter 1, verse 10). This goodness has been used over the ages to perpetuate cultural superiority, symbolize power, demonstrate technological excellence, and in some cases to provide a link to heaven (the afterlife), as in the Egyptian pyramids. Most of the time however, architecture has provided man with a place to work, play, pray and rest. Who is an architect? All conscious beings are architects, or at least have the potential of becoming architects. All laws and norms restricting the use of the title architect to only a few merely aim to certify the knowledge, expertise and experience acquired in the practice of architecture. 2 Architectural Design A design is generally understood to be a plan or convention for the construction or production of an object or system. It is a conscious and intuitive effort to impose meaningful order (Papanek, 1971). Alexander (1964) defines design as the process of inventing physical things which display new physical order, organization and form in response to function. More technically, a design is a specification of an object, manifested by an agent, intended to accomplish goals, in a particular environment, using a set of primitive components, satisfying a set of requirements, subject to constraints (Ralph and Wand, 2009). Design involves a process which has been variously described using either the rational model (Brooks, 2010; Newell and Simon, 1972) or the action-centric model (Ralph, 2010). Just as it is difficult to draw a line between rationality and intuition in design, the boundaries between design and art is blurred. Likewise, there are opposing approaches, methods and philosophies of design. So, what then is architectural design? Simply put, it is a plan for the construction of buildings and other physical structures. The Concept of Place in Architecture The notion of a place having a special meaning is an old and widely recognised one. Such places are identified by their peculiarities, not commonly

Potential Impacts of Climate Change on Extreme Rainfall Events over Three Coastal Cities in Africa Babatunde J. Abiodun (1), Jimmy Adegoke (2), Abayomi Abatan (3,4) (1) University of Cape Town, Environmental and Geographical Science, Cape Town, South Africa (babiodun@csag.uct.ac.za), (2) University of Missouri Kansa City, Missouri, USA, (3) Department of Geological and Atmospheric Sciences, Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa USA, (4) Department of Meteorology, Federal University of Technology, Akure, Nigeria Abstract This study examines the potential impacts of climate change on the characteristics extreme events over three coastal cities in Africa (Lagos, Cape Town and Cairo), with a focus on widespread extreme events (WERE) over the cities. An ensemble of regional climate model (RCA4) simulations, forced with CMIP5 (http://cmip- pcmdi.llnl.gov/cmip5) models under two climate scenarios (RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5), were analyzed for the study. All the simulations were obtained from CORDEX (www.cordex.org). In this study, we used 95th percentile of daily rainfall as the threshold of extreme events and the simultaneous occurrence of extreme events over 50 % of the city area as widespread extreme events (WERE). The RCA ensemble gives a realistic simulation of seasonal and intra-seasonal variability of extreme rainfall events over the cities. The model ensemble projects an increase in the intensity and frequency of grid-point extreme rainfall events, but a decrease in the frequency of the WEREs over the cities in the future (2031 – 2065).

  • Testimony to the Subcommittee on Energy and Power Entitled “Climate Science and EPA’S Greenhouse Gas Regulation
    Testimony to the Subcommittee on Energy and Power entitled “Climate Science and EPA’s Greenhouse Gas Regulation Roger A. Pielke Sr. University of Colorado at Boulder and Colorado State University 8 March 2011 I have worked throughout my career to improve environmental conditions, including air quality, by conducting research, teaching, and also by providing scientifically rigorous information to policymakers. For example, at the local level, I worked with the National Wildlife Federation to prevent a ski area from building in a pristine area of southwest Colorado. I also served on a local board of the Nature Conservancy and was on a committee in Fort Collins, Colorado that mandated that the permit to construct and operate a brewery near the city require the burning of natural gas rather than coal. At the state level, I served two terms on the Colorado Air Quality Control Commission where we developed the oxygenated fuels program to reduce atmospheric CO emissions from vehicles, promulgated regulations to mandate strict controls on wood and coal burning in residential fireplaces and stoves, and on asbestos concentrations in the air. I also served on Governor Romer’s Blue Ribbon Committee to develop approaches to reduce diesel emissions into the atmosphere. I was also a member of a National Research Council committee that recommended rejecting an attempt to exempt certain locations such as Fairbanks Alaska from the national CO health standard.1 I also served on a National Research Council to communicate major concerns related to overgrazing, which includes an increase in dust emissions into the atmosphere.2 I have taught graduate classes and advised numerous graduate students in air pollution, modeling, weather and forecasting and climate at the University of Virginia, Colorado State University, the University of Arizona, and the University of Colorado in Boulder.
