Increasing frequency of climate-related disruptions requires transformational responses over the lifecycles of interconnected urban systems with short- and long-term change dynamics. However, the aftermath of disruptions is often characterised by short-sighted decision-making, neglecting long-term urban shifts. In this study, we present a first attempt to develop the theoretical foundation for temporal dynamics for increasingly disrupted yet ”connecting and moving” cities that can be used in planning for urban resilience. Using the lens of climate urbanism, we conceptualise the interplay of temporal dynamics to empirically examine how planning practice perceives and addresses temporality in two regions - Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and Mumbai, India. Our findings reinforce that disruptions do not inform long-term planning. Endogenous and exogenous dynamics of change are not viewed together nor used to embed short-term planning goals within long-term resilience visions. To address the lack of systematic planning approaches that can leverage temporal dynamics, we propose two options for temporally flexible urban planning processes.

“…The survey of the damaged structures after earthquakes presents that most of them are seismically deficient, unreinforced masonry buildings. For example, as presented by Cetinkaya (2011), in the Karakocan, Elazig, Turkey earthquake, which occurred on 8 March 2010 in eastern Turkey, many people died, and heavy damage occurred due to the absence of bond beams at the top of walls coupled with the existence of heavy roofs constructed directly on the walls. These roofs led to a need for increased resistance to earthquakes, which result in multiple instances of damage.…”

The aim of this research is to propose a way of simulating the interaction between aggregated masonry buildings for the finite element analysis. In most cases, the stiffness of adjacent structures is difficult to evaluate due to the unavailability of data on unknown geometry, parameters, materials, and so on; therefore, a parametric study was essential to simulate the restrictions which are developed. The first results of this research are presented in the present paper, through two case studies wherein rod elements or elastic foundations are proposed for the support of an adjacent structure. The natural frequencies of the real building complex are estimated by the finite element modeling of all the structures, which is then used for the dynamic identification of the simplified model. The experimental measurements of the natural frequencies and modes of the building which are studied could be used for the dynamic identification of the finite element model.

“…The builder-owner uses low-strength materials such as adobe brick, clay brick, rubble stone, round timber logs, earth roof filling, and mud mortar; with the primary concern being cost, rather than seismic loads. Thus, these structures are generally built with no consideration paid to seismic resistant building details, but with many structural faults such as weak connections between elements, weak corner details, and heavy roofthin wall configuration [16,17,18]. As a consequence, these structures fail to resist even a mild earthquake and result in heavy damage or total collapse as seen in previous earthquakes, which prove the vulnerability of the built environment in the region.…”

This paper presents the current post-earthquake damage assessment procedure in Turkey, and is based on the authors experience in the province of Van after the earthquakes in late 2011. The damage assessments were conducted mainly by the state with the collaboration of the Chamber of Architects in Turkey. It is aimed at explaining how the damage surveys are conducted and what problems occurred during and after the completion of the assessments. The differences and similarities between other countries post-earthquake damage assessment practices are also examined by comparing them and giving some examples.
