HEATWAVES AFFECT A VARIETY OF DEMOGRAPHICS, ALMOST NO ONE IS ‘INVULNERABLE’ TO IT.
Natural disasters are uncontrolled embodiments of energy which we do not have control over. Typically, they destroy the environment but we must consider ourselves to be the core reason as to why these disasters have been able to worsen over time in both severity and frequency. Prolonged periods of abnormally hot weather, that affects both land and sea. Humidity ranges varies. Occurs when high atmospheric pressure moves into an area and inhibits winds. As defined by IMD, the criteria for a heat wave is 40 degrees C for plains and 30 degrees C for hilly regions.

URBAN HEAT ISLAND EFFECT
PROJECTIONS OF INCREASING HOT DAYS IN AUSTRALIA ARE CONSISTENT WITH THE PROJECTED GLOBAL TRENDS. THE FOLLOWING REFERS TO THE FAILURE OF HEATWAVE MITIGATION IN MELBOURNE STRATEGIES.
Highest maximum temperature reported in the period 1 January 2013 - 18 January 2013
Heatwaves contribute to UHI in 4 major ways: Increased energy consumption, Increased air pollutants and emissions Reduced quality of human health and comfort Reduced water quality According to AECOM’s reports on UHI, heatwaves contribute to 33% of the $300million used for community repair and compensation in Melbourne. NCCARF(2010) reports that Port of Melbourne stops sea import of goods when the day exceeds 38 degrees C so productivity in summer is compromised with a loss of 49.5 to 72 crane hours, depending. Melbourne Citipower reports that every degree above 20C, causes network and electricity load to +0.228GWh (for degrees below 16, +0.283GWh for every incremental degree)—heatwaves ultimately increase our rate of consumption over current finite resources. Government and implemented strategies do not address the heatwave itself, but only respond to human needs for temporary relief. Governments prioritise establishing more partnerships and sponsorships to “revise…further implement strategies”; reports in the past decade 2009-2019 does not actually show progress in any of these apparent ‘strategies’ they are implementing, aside from the usual ‘stay hydrated, stay indoors’. Due to the temporariness of the solution,

UHI is the phenomenon referring to Australian cities being 5C hotter compared to surrounding areas, which creates ‘hotspots’ of high temperatures. It is caused by drastic differences in temperatures and decreases atmospheric pressure in the area, leading to discomfort and in many cases, death. The rate of consumption of finite resources accelerates this process and despite numerous reports on the increase in severities and damages, written strategies are not taken seriously and do not address the main scenario at hand. Heatwaves are the extremities brought by the UHI effect.

MELBOURNE URBAN HEAT ISLAND AT 1 AM, 23RD MARCH 2006.
Researching into the broad notion of energy, the findings evaluate the correlation of high usage of energy within capital cities and with large quantities of people. This occurs as the Urban Heat Island effect, due to our constant energy innovation and high demand of energy within our urban landscape. There is a double effect of high production and the counter-effect of destruction. The counter effect is our inability to control our surroundings and inherent disasters. Melbourne is in the event of our summer and hotter months with the added case of UHI. Taking this a step further is the scenario where we have no control over is that of a heatwave. Factors contributing to UHI • Idle state • Summer • Seasonal state • Heatwave • Atmospheric repercussion from season We are countering a 3 faceted force every year. As an individual: We counteract this dilemma with air conditioning, and water consumption. As a city: We counteract this dilemma with indoor seclusion, thermal heat intake and depletion of water stores.

HEATWAVES: SEVERITY & MORTALITY WHY IS IT SEVERE ENOUGH TO TAKE NOTE OF
Doctors for the Environment Australia predict a 5 degrees C on average increase by 2070 and that extreme hot days will be longer, hotter, more frequent and 1-in-20 year extreme hot days will occur every 2-5 years. Currently there is a 0.83-0.95 degrees C increase per decade in Australia. A study in Harvard University by Laurent supports the above and also shows exposure to hot weather above 26 degrees C already starts reducing cognitive function, and at higher temperatures up to 30+, there is risk of inflammations and brain damage with a -9.9% in thought output but oddly +13.4% in reaction times (Laurent, J., et.al, 2018). Melbourne City Council (2017) has deemed it damaging enough to the overall health of communities and in order to reduce the damages and risks, they have written reports and plans to address heatwaves specifically. Despite being officially acknowledged as a disaster common in all parts of Australia, the strategies do not respond to the issue at hand, instead encouraging ‘staying hydrated/ indoors’ and “increase stakeholders… to inform vulnerable communities of (said preventative measures)”.

Mortality rates, assault rates, aggressive and disordered behaviors are aggravated by extreme temperatures, especially from heat waves. Climate Council of Australia states there is a minimum “20-fold increase in ambulance call-outs… and overall mortality”. It also affects productivity rates such as when the “tennis tournament was suspended…treated almost 1000 fans for heat exhaustion”. The rescheduling of mass events relates to any event held outside. Health and productivity are compromised, with the added risk of fires, infrastructure, agriculture damage and overall mental aggression (+crime rate) during prolonged periods of hot weather due to stress (Trang, M. 2017). Not limited to, but it especially elevates negative emotion in those with PTSD, pre-existing anxiety disorders and schizophrenia. Auliciems & DiBartolo(1995) found that, based on a threshold of 25 degrees C, every incremental degree increases violence and crime rates by 0.549. In US, every Celsius holds +3.68 crimes per 100,000 people.

CURRENT STRATEGIES & FLAWS CURRENT STRATEGIES FOR HEATWAVE MANAGEMENT & MITIGATION IN MELBOURNE. FAILURES IN HEATWAVE STRATEGIES FOR MELBOURNE, VICTORIA
STRATEGIES The current strategy is in reference to the Heatwave Planning Guide of Victoria, by local councils (Hyde, J., et.al, 2016).
Vulnerable populations are identified, with written coping strategies to encourage the populations to follow. Community support and health information is given in the form of understanding and medical response to local hospitals when appropriate. Instead of addressing the problem of heatwaves, the government’s strategy is a written plan to support long-term and sustainable behavioural adaptations/habits from us to minimise the effect of heatwaves on health and wellbeing. This does not address other disasters/issues that arise from the presence of heatwaves (eg fires, marine heatwaves, agricultural famine). Each plan is reviewed by the councils after every summer season.
VIC GOV HEATWAVE PLAN • Raise awareness of the impact of heatwaves • Commission research to understand heatwaves • Assist councils to develop and implement plans • Establish heat alert system to inform councils and communities • National conferences • Map vulnerability in metropolitan areas, taking note of UHI hotspots • Funded 13 pilot projects to implement heatwave plans • Develop a brochure/guide- drink more water, stay cool, stay indoors. • Shaded indoor green areas, building design and fixtures (blinds, curtains), aircon areas, reschedule mass gathering events, not using an electric fan. • Long term plan consists of material proposals during building and subsidies for insulation and window coverings, as well as “informing the communities of implemented plans via the local council”

RESEARCH
VULNERABLE POPULATION GROUPS • Age >65, children <5 years • Pregnant/nursing mothers • People with pre-existing medical condition (eg diabetes, heart disease, kidney disease, mental illness) • People with thermoregulation conditions/diseases • Those living alone with little social contact • People with disability • Homeless • Low income earners, limited transport access • People who are outdoors, do strenuous activity • People who cannot readily access the health care services or info.
2009 HEATWAVE STATISTICS • 46% increase in metropolitan Ambulance Victoria for emergency cases • 34% increase in Ambulance for heat-related conditions • 61% increase in Ambulance for heat-related conditions for elderly cases • 69% increase in patients dead on arrival to a medical facility • 374 additional deaths than expected (62% increase in total mortality) • 12% overall increase in emergencies
STRATEGY FLAWS These strategies are failing because they ‘relieve the symptoms but do not prevent/cure the issue at its core’. By targeting humans and not the weather itself, this allows the disaster to continually worsen over time whilst humans remain in stagnation. Strategies done in other parts of the world to combat heatwaves and the UHI effect, but have not been implemented in Melbourne nor have been considered for implementation: Shigeru Ban’s Cardboard Cathedral(NZ), OysterTecture(NY), Singapore Marina Gardens Supertrees(SG), Seed-Vault(NOR). Festo Organization has started looking into bionic engineering tactics to enhance human health and rebuild living ecosystems through machine (refer to Future Technologies: Precedents).

RESEARCH
The timeline of Inherent Disasters and Drawbacks identifies the most oft occurring incidences that majorly contribute to the increasing mortality rates of the population in Melbourne. Number of deaths and impact of severity was recorded and studied to determine which disaster Project Eden would primarily respond to. The most severe occurrence was found to be extreme heat (heatwaves), which remains a silent killer, as many Australian Government systems have very few strategies to combat the increasing amount of deaths that happen every summer solstice for Australia. In comparison, floods in Victoria, Melbourne were reported with far less impact and less severity as the years progress. This could have been due to the Australian Government primarily focusing on floods due to the larger incidence of floods happening in other states per annum. However, since Melbourne is the main site of Project Eden to be addressed, heatwaves were the issue pursued, as Melbourne is very rarely affected by flooding in comparison.

LIVING STANDARDS & HABITS HOW DOES HEATWAVE AFFECT LIVING STANDARDS AND HABITS HOW IS URBAN MELBOURNE AFFECTED Heat waves have caused us to change our habits in ways that injure the environment; such as being encouraged to use more air-conditioning and hot weather encourages depletion of water stores. Trying to stay indoors as much as possible puts a strain on the urban heat island spots and increases use of shaded transport such as trains and trams which contribute to the overconsumption of resources during the period of the heatwave. According to the Department of Environment & Sustainability, heatwaves can last from minimum 3 days up to 7 days. The Heatwave Management sub-sector did not give a number to the risk of fires but did mention 30-40 degrees C calls for “severe risk” of fires. High risk for disordered and neglectful behavior for every incremental degree past 27 degrees C. Melbourne’s public realm only has a 22% canopy cover, as determined by the Melbourne City Council. Current strategies are very direct, such as drinking more water, staying indoors and the plans to build up the Urban Forest Precinct. However it is identified many neglect the basic need of hydration during heatwaves (Hansel et al, 2008.)
HUMAN NEEDS INCLUDE, BUT ARE NOT LIMITED TO: Current human needs according to RedEnergy Australia and Victoria Government’s Department of Environment & Sustainability on water consumption and targets. • Electricity/internet (Feb 2018 stat: 25% hot water, 38% heat and cooling, 4% cooking, • 7% lighting and household appliances usage up to 13.7kWh to 41kWh per household/day. • Water (Target 155; Melbourne scheme with a target to limit water use to 155L/day) . Trend: Decrease in 5L per person every 2 years. Expected to reach the 155L goal by end of 2019-2020. (In 2018, 161L per person was used on average.) • Warmth (external temperature for comfort: 18-21+ degrees) (internal temperature: 37.4) • Happiness (health; to have absence of physical, mental and physiological illness, including satisfaction of needs, such as morals and values as deemed necessary by the individual) • Physical happiness is in health and tangible provision of services, emotional happiness in fulfillment/ability to establish goals and meet them, social happiness is in opportunities to form relationships. • Economical happiness is having sufficient resources to support basic physical necessities such as food, water, shelter and healthcare of some sort. • Physiological happiness takes into account access to factors that indirectly affect physical and emotional happiness, such as sufficient access to clean air, light, metaphysical objects that give contentment.

RECOVERY HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO RECOVER FROM A HEATWAVE Aside from design perspectives, humans respond to heatwaves with other adaptive behaviours, which include but are not limited to: Physical recovery: it can take up to several years to rebuild a community affected by fire from heatwaves. Psychological recovery: varies depending on situation ie death of a family member, monetary loss, loss of home, disability etc Economic recovery: Cost average used to rebuild residences from major heatwaves and resultant fires, $300500 million (excluding deaths and material salvage) since 2009. - A supplementary fund of $593 million for fire suppression alone. - Additional estimated $4.1 million support for animal deaths and crops. - $600million was required to rebuild timber harvesting areas - Additional $18million to salvage timber scraps - By 2010, est. $867 million spent to recover affected communities (VIC ONLY) - $20million for restoring infrastructure and telecommunication - In 2009-2010 alone, $4369million was used as emergency response to damages - Victorian Commission gave conservative estimate $4 billion to rebuild on top of $4369million.

OTHER FACTORS DISASTERS WITH LESSER IMPACT THAN HEATWAVES IN VICTORIA Floods mostly affect Northern Territory, Queensland, rarely Melbourne.
Pandemics (influenza does affect Melbournians). However we are constantly putting our focus into medical technology—immunizations and yearly breakthroughs that keep us on par with the evolution of viruses (technological evolution vs viral).
Drought effects on a countrywide scale that is typical of arid countries. We have set targets (Green strategies, Target 155) to respond to water depletion and predicted replenishment. Drought is the product of reoccurring heatwaves and lack of water replenishment.

MELBOURNE’S RESPONSE HOW WILL MELBOURNE RESPOND TO HEATWAVES WITH APPLICATION OF FUTURE TECHNOLOGIES Currently we are advised to change simple habits such as drinking more water and using wet towels or implementing airconditioning and blinds into buildings. There are other technologies that help harness energy suitable for our use, that will also contribute less to the heatwaves/ UHI effect. The Australian Government intends to implement: • Sun Cable Company plans to produce electricity from Australia’s solar exposure to help power Singapore using a 3800km subsea cable. Intent to build a solar farm of 15000+ hectares. • Asian Renewable Energy Hub (AREH) in WA: Solar/wind hybrid farm with plans to dedicate 20% of output to power tourist town Broome. • Single-tower solar thermal power plant (SA); intends to store energy in molten salt and operate 24/7, generating renewable electricity. • Hybrid technologies by ARENA, funded by Australian Government ($200million+). • Solar/thermal+wind, battery storage backups to replace diesel-fired generators. States of focus: NT, SA, WA, VIC, TAS. • Carbon-capture technology; water, nutrients/vitamins and carbon dioxide with solar energy, used to create a new ‘protein’ food powder. • Carbon nanotubes convert waste heat into solar renewable electricity using thermal protons. • Biodegradable plastics: Ionic liquid enzyme. • Resilience and safety in nuclear reactor expansion: using liquid sodium to transfer heat from fission. Less hydrogen waste and overheating. • Thorium, abundant nuclear material in the earth. It goes through a life cycle of using its own by-products and waste as a source of conversion to energy. • Zero Water 2018, the desert air water harvester. It condenses water vapour and filters it as usable water,

Today’s society is very much a NOW society, they want to see something NOW, though that builds the future.
We would take action if it helps with our everyday expenses and convenience as well. For example, public transport is not effective in this country and so I have to use my car. I would use public transport if it was effective, but it’s not reliable.

A modular system that incorporates multiple effect systems that together combats heat related impacts. WHEN RESPONSIVE The structures designed are responsive to the onset of Heat Waves, the present heat in Summer and the constant UHI effect and the inevitable Global Warming. WHERE SEMI PERMANENT Locations that are hot, can accommodate the public and accessible to the needs of at risk users. Priority, to at risk individuals, hierarchy like transport systems. WHY HEATWAVES KILL. 2077 WILL BE 64C MINIMUM The severity is not to be taken lightly, 6200+ deaths expected due to heat related events. HOW Incorporating the existing preventions and cooling techniques, a framework that can hold multiple typologies in a singular lot, vertically stacked provides the flexibility to respond the onset of heat waves. The individuals (seniors, youth, homeless) that can not escape the heat due to age or restrictive surroundings. Residential level: Attachment to an existing house, emergency granny flat situation. The modular unit to be transported to the node framework “communal city” Urban level: Temporary framework erected at a public location, the framework contains effective methods to capture heat, harness and store as energy in return cooling spaces, reduce the heat wave impacts through nodes of within the city reducing UHI and summer heat accumulation. The structural framework will accommodate masses who struggle to combat the heat on their own, and for individuals to escape to the escape the dying heat.

FIRST PRINCIPLES ELABORATION OF CRITERIA FOR DESIGN
Our response to extreme heat situations include heat exhaustion, stress, inability to sweat therefore failing to regulate internal body temperature, strokes and aggravation of disorders and illnesses. The environment should be designed and controlled so occupants’ health, safety, comfort and recovery are ensured. From this, the project will take the First Principles to apply into the design, also considering the following: - Achieve coolness: layering. Cool air is a bad conductor of heat. - Control use of air to reduce the impact of heat during a heatwave - Reduce the risk of humans reaching that state of severity - Maintain a built environment with cool micro climate, that enables rest, comfort, rehydration, to prevent hypoactivity of the organs causing shutdown and death. - For the design to be responsive and adaptive.
FIRST PRINCIPLES - DESIGN FACTORS & CONSIDERATIONS • Temperature & radiation • Relative Humidity • Air velocity • Buoyancy • System maintenance • Logistics-speed of Use • Deployment methods • Boarding process • Energy consumption • Size (Land/Usage) • Typology

T = -dT/dz Environmental lapse rate: The environmental lapse rate (ELR), is the rate of decrease of temperature with altitude in the stationary atmosphere at a given time and location. As an average, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) defines an international standard atmosphere (ISA) with a temperature lapse rate of 6.49 K/km (3.56 °F or 1.98 °C/1,000 ft) from sea level to 11 km (36,090 ft or 6.8 mi). From 11 km up to 20 km (65,620 ft or 12.4 mi), the constant temperature is −56.5 °C (−69.7 °F), which is the lowest assumed temperature in the ISA. The standard atmosphere contains no moisture. Unlike the idealized ISA, the temperature of the actual atmosphere does not always fall at a uniform rate with height. For example, there can be an inversion layer in which the temperature increases with altitude.

ALPHA Alpha Tower typology. The elements within this tower will be present in the other typologies as appropriate. Essentially the tower itself is adaptable according to the variance in heatwaves, depending on factors. Whilst mobility factors, deployment and living conditions are retained, it may change in shape, form, or size according to the heatwave experienced every 90-365 days. Such changes are dependent on aspects including but not limited to; numbers of vulnerable occupants in that particular year (form stacking may change slightly) and extremities of temperature (the tower may suspend at higher altitudes due to higher temperatures as it captures and stores the heat as a result of higher temperatures). Thermoelectricity. Utilising the concept of thermoelectricity. The heat exchange thermally collected from surroundings in contact is conducted through the copper metal piping. The Heat pipe itself contains pressurised water that thermally reacts to heat change, the heat traverses up the tower with the heat sink/ fins to dissipate the heat even further essentially providing a cool building and reducing the heat footprint. Heat Conductivity to Electricity A thermoelectric pad enables the generation of energy from the heat exchange

DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
In Design Development phase, Project Eden looks at developing a standardised framework of typologies that can be applied as retrofits to existing buildings, or become a building typology on its own upon a vacant site where needed especially for targeting Urban Heat Island (UHI) hotspots. The following Development section concentrates on Points of Insertion, potential sites with applications specific to Melbourne of year 2019 to 2077. The sites chosen were deemed to be the central focus of UHI accumulation, according to the heatwave maps. To essentially cool the rising temperatures within the city, typologies focus on maximising their surface area, within site limitations, to increase contact with excess heat and absorb it for its own usage and conversion to electricity to power surrounding typologies. This serves to increase a mass cooling effect over the surrounding streets when not in the emergence of extreme heat fluctuations. Smaller living typologies, such as the Gamma systems, work as miniature living modules (when in emergency) or as temporary public or commercial spaces. These also work to absorb and gather heat in the surrounding area, although their absorption rate is restricted to a smaller radius than that of the urban Alpha/Beta/Omega (ABO) typologies. However in the emergence of a heatwave, Gamma capsules can be arranged into a cluster, which expands radius of heat absorption in the area as well as potentially increase energy production as a secondary support to power ABO systems.

URBAN HUB/TOWER; ESTABLISHING SCENARIOS OF 45, 55, 65, 75C.
Implementing a tower-like structure, using existing and experimental technologies to reduce heat impacted occurrences. Specific procedures to follow in the hotter parts of the year to reduce mortality. Certain temperatures can affect the methods of heat reduction, the actions needed to be extreme. Before: The State warning for heatwave status is announced. In the response of increased heat. The ‘tower’ structure emerges out of its dormant mode, the tower is made up of individual modules comprising of mixed archetypes ranging from multi-residential, medical, commercial, and even agricultural. During: The passive integrated technology is: a. Absorbing heat, converting to energy with redistribution into the tower. The accumulation of heat stored is providing the means to harvest air-water and create an environment suitable for bio-organic produce. b. Efficiently cooling the surrounding areas, acting as a filter of westerly wind(heatwave), the thermal diffusivity is passive where the modules within are suspended inside the tower perimeter and evaporative cooling in communal/ public space like ground arrayed in the ascension of the building. Post: The effects after the summer and the heatwaves do prolong into early April time of the year. The tower will respond by focusing on heat capture and distribution to surrounding locale. Preparation: Winters in 2077 will be warmer at the expected range of 15-24C. While temperature is relative to human needs, this temperature will still affect the individual’s perception of cold. The tower will revert to heating mode, where the opportunity for modules to be placed in the tower will comprise of a different configuration for heat retention. The tower will act as a passive heater providing appropriate human warmth to the vicinity of the site. This is not as wide ranged as the cooling effects in summer. The effect of these large pillars containing this modularity offsets the effect heat and heatwaves. The towers will have set stages until the effect of this filter acts as a blanket to accommodate for westerly winds and heatwave flows.

OMEGA INTERVENTION
IMPLEMENTING THE SYSTEM INTO FRAMEWORK Restructuring important components in the Victoria planning scheme to sustain the Melbourne region and combat the effects of a heatwave. The finances into cooling are estimated to be exponentially higher in temperature above 55C. Radiation: Important factors to include are the expected levels of radiation individuals are exposed to higher temperature and the earth’s atmosphere weakened by the multitude of global warming (man made fossil fuels and carbon emissions). Before: The “Tower” is but a shell, until the hull of this building is composed of modules, its effectivity is correlated by quantity and types of modules contained within. These modules are collected and deployed before the hot months of summer and functioning as the heat builds up. The modules comprising of mixed archetypes contain passive technologies that react positively to heat, the thermal diffusion and hygroscopic elements reduce the impact of heat. The permeability of the modules creates a stable environment. During: Adaptive architectural technologies imitate nature, these modules contract and expand it’s external elements that reduce radiation exposure and regulate internal temperature and humidity. The individual module is a self sustained unit, when placed in the tower, its basic function as an individual unit is supported as additional units are encompassed in the tower. Its internals will be self-customizable according to user requirements (eg partitions can be taken down between units used by larger families. The basic functions include: Self sustenance Self regulated thermal exchange The tower benefits include: Collective cooling & mechanical ventilation Reduction of radiation exposure Communal congregation, in comparison to risk of hot outside. Expenses in cooling self unit are supported-- “giving to the tower” Post: Modules are to be transported to original location (if desired) or placed in locations where the modules can regulate the microclimate around them and collect passive energy while dormant when there is no heatwave. Preparation (for the next heatwave): Infrastructure built into VPP 2050-2077 Buildings of 2050-2077 will accommodate the emergence of airspace, incorporating elements of the ‘Core Tower’ thus providing adaptability of living, flexibility of response. The effect of these modular units offsets the effect heat and heatwaves. Buildings built in this period, experiment the logistics of modularity and determine the reliance on mechanical ventilation .These modular units will mitigate the UHI effect in reducing heat in hotspots through filtration and absorbing surrounding heat. They are standardised and can be relocated at hotspots with particularly vulnerable populations.

URBAN FRAMEWORK PARAMETERS URBAN HUB/TOWER Lightweight Passive cooling Different computation of space Strength to accommodate change in atmospheric differences More surface area protection, molding form to form voids for passive cooling. Fluidity for voids to provide protective airspace for cooling and glazing Elasticity/fluidity in form Changing of mold/ buoyancy / change in volume / reduce energy use in maintaining flotation. Reduce exposure to sunlight to reduce heat absorption. The external skin may increase in surface area therefore larger surface plate exposure to heat/ solar which can harvest this energy. Shifting frame that responds to dissipating the radiation through forming multiplicity of voids, indirect exposure to ‘heat’ ie radiation. Layers of voids dissipate this effect. Material: high tensile steel/liquid metal with impregnated plastics. Aerovac film, Carbon-fibre, Diffusive materials
TOWER CONFIGURATIONS URBAN HUB/TOWER Focusing on the Alpha Tower typology. The elements within this tower will be present in the other typologies as appropriate. Essentially the tower itself is adaptable according to the variance in heatwaves, depending on factors. Whilst mobility factors, deployment and living conditions are retained, it may change in shape, form, or size according to the heatwave experienced every 90-365 days. Such changes are dependent on aspects including but not limited to; numbers of vulnerable occupants in that particular year (form stacking may change slightly) and extremities of temperature (the tower may suspend at higher altitudes due to higher temperatures as it captures and stores the heat as a result of higher temperatures).
ALPHA TOWER FOCUS ON ALPHA TOWER FRAMEWORK Utilising the concept of thermoelectricity. The heat exchange thermally collected from surroundings in contact is conducted through the copper metal piping. The Heat pipe itself contains pressurised water that thermally reacts to heat change, the heat traverses up the tower with the heat sink/ fins to dissipate the heat even further essentially providing a cool building and reducing the heat footprint. Heat Conductivity to Electricity A thermoelectric pad enables the generation of energy from the heat exchange.

INTEGRATED TECHNOLOGIES/SYSTEMS
The modules are lightweight units that can be stacked rapidly prior to the emergence of a heatwave. Each unit comes with its own filtration core system, in which the functionality is supported by thermoelectric generators to convert heat directly to electricity for usage, and airwater harvester, which condenses surrounding vapour and collects it into usable water. The main filtration system acts as the ventilator, humidifier and thermoregulator for the internals of the module. Motorised pin system: Floor and ceiling will actuate according to use of space (eg double volume ceiling to accommodate user preference or needs). TEG will collect heat and convert this to electricity, stored to cool the pod. When deployed, heat collected from moving through the environment stores into the TEG for added electricity to power the pin system. Thermoelectric generator blocks (TEG-Bs): Are slimline TEGs modeled in the dimensions of standard brick sizes but slimmer in thickness (approximately 230(L)x110(W)x40(thickness)mm). These have been designed specifically for modular building unit configurations, supporting the main TEG unit so as to reduce size of devices but increase efficiency. Project Eden will utilize these in an array to form a ‘curtain wall’ in areas with major environmental contrast between the exterior and interior spaces.

Each rectangular cluster for a single group of family (~36 occupants) allows for one core control channel with 6 living modules. Additional living modules can be added but this may reduce the efficiency of resources from the control channel, in reference to the stacking formula regarding prism packing (refer to Appendix: Excursus). The communal module in the central area of each cluster is fixed to the urban typology itself. It is mainly for larger user groups to accumulate in one area where there are extended families or groups designated.

Occupants in Project Eden: In CBD area, based on population forecasts recorded by the City of Melbourne. In 2019, the number of people in CBD Of <19 years is: 28,716 Of >65 years is: 11,798 Total vulnerable population in CBD area(2019): 40, 514. As a sample size with regard to applying this project on one site, for Alpha 477 Olderfleet, the parameters for the living VTOL (modules) are: - Must be classed ‘vulnerable’ as stated above. - Taking ‘apartment dweller population in the CBD area’ (ABS Census of Population & Housing, 2016). - 20% of which <19 years of age. - 12% of which are classified elderly 65-85 years. From this, the calculations for the accountable size of showcase: <19 years: 20% of 28716= 5743 <65 years: 12% of 11798= 1416 Total (vulnerable sample)= 7159 residents to account for one tower site, as initially calculated. However, due to maximisation of site area, the potential resident number for one site can be doubled. Sources: ABS (2019), City of Melbourne (2019).

‘RECLAMATION’ & CONTROL OF SPACE ALPHA/BETA/OMEGA+GAMMA MEDIATOR
Utilizing the airspace for transport and operation in the times of the of heat excess. In 2077 the congestion of traffic in ground will be exhausted and a new ground plane located vertically will be in demand. Due to current aircraft specifications in 2019, it is still recommended to have supporting wing functions for gliding directions and motion stability. This will enable carrying the living unit to another location with less risk to the users. As suggested in Wang’s excerpt (2017), for the current trajectory of progression in aircraft and drone technology, propellers alone are insufficient for moderate flight distances due to the proportion of weight to be lifted.

Deployment Units that use an integrated tailsitter technology system. Modeled in Rhino3D using primarily Edit Points, CurveLoft commands and Curved-network command, alongside geometry. Glider wing parts were included for stability midflight and horizontal maneuvering, whilst the tailsitter propellers are responsible for liftoff and vertical control.
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
Lift formula = CL * (0.5ρ*v^2s) CL = lift coefficient (angle of wing, shape of wing) ρ = density v = speed s = wing area Therefore if you have less wing area, you need higher speed mechanics, or high density (air) or high coefficient of lift. Specifications of mi-26 helicopter(1983), in which parameters similarly applied to Airspace are: - High speed, moderate lifting, some transport for people. - Speed: 295km/h or 159kt - Max carrying capacity is 56 tons. - Range: 1920km - Turboshaft to power rotors - Rotor area: 804.25sqm Symmetry gives a higher liftoff coefficient and thus wing shape for the gliding component was designed to adopt this.

EDEN VTOL : PROFILE TRANSPORT SYSTEMS
Mechanical arms attach and detach to the frames of the living modules for transport. The VTOLs have multi-directional, slimline flight systems that are capable of hover and independent adaptation to environmental conditions such as changing wind velocity. Air exchange system: From Nitrogen to oxygen. Located on the skin of the building as it requires heat and solar exposure to be powered. Material usage for increased comfort: Lightweight impregnated concrete for exterior with steel, currently more cost effective and durable than plastics. Performs better than timber for creating external draft and cooling. Interior will have timber layers due to spatial experience of creating a separate environment from the external extremities. Material resonance promotes relaxation and activity within the living space. Passive cooling: Air spaces formed by having tripled/quadrupled glazing. Prevents heat from directly hitting the building. Use of pin system to adjust internal volumes for walls and roof to increase/decrease the amount of airspace and indirect contact with external heat from the heatwave.

Additional notes: *Please note many of the references were done as a whole reading, with past research relation to the Excursus Journal, which stands for a ‘scrapped Appendix’ journal. Much of the research from EX was condensed for this particular scope. *In Excursus, you will find other historical timelines, more technological studies and precedent analyses, conditions of study that have led team Superseden to address the emergence of extreme heat, former concepts and more. *In which due to condensation of research to directly address the matter, may not be diagrammed in this Main Journal, however, contain a linked reference to it as a secondary source of information input.
