Rethinking Urban Design: Architectural Approaches to Walkability and Sprawl
Abstract: As cities stretch their concrete fingers across the landscape, architecture stands as both the problem and the solution. Like a master chess player, thoughtful architecture can reshape urban spaces, transforming car-centric sprawl into pedestrian-friendly havens. By crafting inviting streetscapes and mixed-use developments, architects weave a tapestry of walkable neighborhoods that pulse with life and connection. Streetscapes designed with wide sidewalks, pedestrian crossings, green spaces, and appropriate lighting further enhance the …

Structure–Property-Guided Polymer–Metal Hybrid Design of a Wall Plastering Spray Assembly
Abstract: Wall plastering spray equipment requires a combination of low mass, dimensional stability, abrasion resistance, chemical compatibility with cementitious mortar, and comfortable operator interaction. The original assembly was primarily developed as a metallic mechanical system; however, a polymer-focused material architecture can reduce non-load-bearing mass while retaining a safe metallic pressure path. This study, therefore, presents a structure–property-guided polymer–metal hybrid design in which the pressure housing and nozzle insert remain metallic, whereas …
