Abstract
This paper develops a more diverse and multi-dimensional agenda for understanding and researching urban verticality. Particularly, it argues for the emergence of skyscrapers, the technological inventions that made this possible, the impact of high-rise buildings on the urban context and their interaction with it. It also draws attention to sociological aspects in the perception of skyscrapers and both role/status in advertising. The external and internal essence of skyscrapers, their interconnection and confrontation are considered. At the end, the question of the fullness of vertical urbanism is assessed and studied, its existence is called into question and the necessary conditions for its emergence are considered.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Applied Research and Technology (JART) is a bimonthly open access journal that publishes papers on innovative applications, development of new technologies and efficient solutions in engineering, computing and scientific research. JART publishes manuscripts describing original research, with significant results based on experimental, theoretical and numerical work.
The journal does not charge for submission, processing, publication of manuscripts or for color reproduction of photographs.
JART classifies research into the following main fields:
-Material Science:
Biomaterials, carbon, ceramics, composite, metals, polymers, thin films, functional materials and semiconductors.
-Computer Science:
Computer graphics and visualization, programming, human-computer interaction, neural networks, image processing and software engineering.
-Industrial Engineering:
Operations research, systems engineering, management science, complex systems and cybernetics applications and information technologies
-Electronic Engineering:
Solid-state physics, radio engineering, telecommunications, control systems, signal processing, power electronics, electronic devices and circuits and automation.
-Instrumentation engineering and science:
Measurement devices (pressure, temperature, flow, voltage, frequency etc.), precision engineering, medical devices, instrumentation for education (devices and software), sensor technology, mechatronics and robotics.
