Unique Approach

The changing needs of society informed by rapid technological, social and ecological changes have disturbed the foundation of permanence on which much of architecture was built. Traditional Western architecture is too solid, hard, and slow—presenting difficulties for it to adequately adapt to change and uncertainty. A reconceptualization of architecture is necessary, one not focused on the certainty of solutions or forms, but one patterned by the dynamic feedback of human agency and environmental forces. For architecture to adapt, and to adapt to unpredictable circumstances, requires that architecture accept uncertainty in its formulation and materialization. Embracing systems-based thinking, a conceptual model based on the complex systems of granular matter provides a unique approach to architecture’s material and immaterial structures. Architecture will then be critically poised at the edge of chaos, ready to reorganize and evolve towards a new fluid paradigm.

Variational Approaches

Simplified group function (SGF) theory is used to analyse the energetic contributions to the interatomic potentials of the diatomics H2+, H2, He2+ and He2. These species, which contain one, two, three and four electrons respectively, range from the strongly (H2) to the weakly (He2) bonded chemical entities. SGF theory provides a simple conceptual model of the processes occurring during chemical bonding, and the results obtained in this work may be generalized so as to explain the bonding in larger, more complex systems. The relative merits of the perturbational and variational approaches and of the Lowdin and Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization procedures are discussed.

AbstractWe present a model of the Hypothalamo-Adreno-Pituitary (HPA) system; our approach is hierarchical and biologically sound, reflecting the complexity of the real HPA system. The structure of the conceptual model is based on theoretical frameworks of biological complex systems and its implementation takes advantage of recent hybrid automata modelling and analysis tools, being modular and reflecting parameter and mechanisms uncertainties.

Perspective Analysis

The adoption of Industrial Symbiosis (IS) practices within urban areas is gaining interest due to the environmental impacts entailed by the development of cities. However, there is still a lack of knowledge about how the relationships between industrial and urban areas can be modelled. In this context, this research aimed at posing a conceptual model to understand and represent Urban-Industrial Systems (UIS). To this end, a set of worldwide previous UIS experiences were overviewed to identify the agents, dynamics, and collaboration opportunities that characterize them. The multi-perspective analysis of these cases indicated that UIS are complex systems, which means that they are autonomous, self-organized, responsive, nonlinear, and willing to consolidate their resilience. As such, Agent-Based Models (ABM) were suggested to be the most suitable approach for their representation.

Quantitative Results

This paper primarily focuses on two questions: (1) “How is a sustainable entrepreneurship team (SET) formed?”; and (2) “What factors contribute to effective SET?”. Based on the model of Baron and Henry (2011), we adopt a process view of SET development and propose a conceptual model of a SET work that includes four key elements: (1) Sustainable entrepreneurial motivation; (2) sustainable entrepreneurial opportunity recognition; (3) knowledge resources acquirement; and (4) sustainable entrepreneurial outcome. Furthermore, based on complex systems theory, we elaborate on how individual entrepreneurs form a SET. We also develop a SET scale and provide some initial empirical support for our conceptual model. Finally, based on our qualitative and quantitative results, we offer suggestions for Research Question 2.
