  • Identifying Organizational and Contractual Drivers Behind Metro Accidents in Shanghai
    IDENTIFYING ORGANIZATIONAL AND CONTRACTUAL DRIVERS BEHIND METRO ACCIDENTS IN SHANGHAI Yue Chen, 4181166 Construction Management and Engineering Faulty of Civil Engineering Technology University of Delft November 2013 0 ABSTRACT In recent years, China has witnessed rapid development in urban transportation, especially in metro projects. However the safety records of metro projects is rather worrying and cannot help to make us think where actually is going wrong. Official reports have claimed that the causes for those metro accidents are mainly from technical and organizational aspects. But are the reports really telling the true story? Or are there deeper reasons that lead to accidents which are not so obvious? In previous studies, Martin de Jong and Yongchi Ma have asked the same question. They conduct their research on three Chinese cities of Beijing, Hangzhou and Dalian through Jens Rasmussen’s safety theory: drift to safety boundaries. In this theory, various incentives drive stakeholders to trade off quality and safety for other core values, resulting in safety boundaries to be crossed. All three cities represent a certain extent of profit driven, excessive subcontracting and loose monitoring which rightly match what is described in Rasmussen’s theory. In my study, I will take the city Shanghai as an example to do a replicative research following Martin de Jong and Ma Yongchi’s work. Based on the main research question of searching for the contractual and organizational arrangements in metro accidents, firstly Rasmussen’s theory will be discussed in Chapter 2 to lay a theoretical underpinning for latter research. Secondly the development of Shanghai metro system will be introduced to provide background information for latter case studies.

  • Strategies for Coastal Cities to Cope with Flood Disaster and Urban Heat Island Effect in the Context of Climate Change
    Strategies for coastal Cities to Cope with Flood disaster and Urban Heat Island Effect in the Context of climate Change - A Case study of Shanghai, China By: DOU XIAO & CHEN XUE SCHOOL OF PLANNING AND DESIGN - POLITECNICO DI TORINO Master Course TERRITORIAL, URBAN, ENVIRONMENTAL AND LANDSCAPE PLANNING 11/2020 Strategies for coastal Cities to Cope with Flood disaster and Urban Heat Island Effect in the Context of climate Change - A Case study of Shanghai, China With the global warming and the acceleration of urbanization, China's climate has also undergone significant changes. Precipitation increased in many areas, and the frequency of extreme events greatly increased. Therefore, people begin to think more about how to adapt to climate change in urban planning and how to have stronger disaster resistance in urban functional structure and layout space. With the rapid development of economic construction in Shanghai, the temperature difference between urban and rural areas continues to expand, the intensity and area of heat island continue to increase, the phenomenon of high temperature in summer continues to strengthen, high temperature disasters occur frequently, and the urban thermal environment problems are becoming more and more prominent. Urban heat island is formed under the combined action of human factors (mainly urbanization and industrialization) and local weather and meteorological conditions. With the increasing urban hardening rate and excessive development, the original surface runoff is destroyed and the urban heat island effect is gradually aggravated. Therefore, for urban planning, increasing green space area and reducing urban hardening rate through LID measures can reduce the impact of heat island effect.
