Anotácia knihy

Age-Friendly Engineering for the Built Environment emphasizes the integration of human-centric planning and design approaches with innovative technologies to enhance accessibility, safety, and quality of life for an aging population as they navigate daily activities, interact with their surroundings, and maintain independence within evolving urban landscapes.

This well-thought-out research reference book advocates for inclusive, efficient, and resilient localities by exploring the pivotal role of engineers in shaping them, while addressing the various engineering challenges that must be overcome to realize these goals. It considers a broad range of topics specific to the built environment and its dwellers—from well-lit walkways, accessible buildings, pace-sensitive traffic lighting, easily navigable transportation infrastructure and services, aging-in-place housing, and multigeneration cultural facilities to wearable devices and in-home, AI-powered sensors and smart assistive equipment to optimize health and safety—aptly spanning both macro and micro scales. Details on the latest advancements, actionable insights from case studies, and application examples strengthen the coverage and amplify its value for advanced students, researchers, practitioners, and other technical stakeholders involved in the development of future-ready cities.

• Consolidates a state-of-the art discourse on aging demographics with what needs to be done from an engineering standpoint to create an age-friendly built environment
• Presents multifront engineering approaches to overcome the challenges of older adults and to better promote broader environmental and social sustainability goals
• Expounds on a holistic range of engineering solutions, from microsensors to age-friendly smart communities
