Assessment of the Adaptive Reuse Potentiality of Industrial Heritage Based on Improved Entropy TOPSIS Method from the Perspective of Urban Regeneration

Abstract

In recent years, it has become critical to promote urban redevelopment and maximize the potentiality of industrial heritage through adaptive reuse. Research on the assessment of adaptive reuse potentiality helps to make scientific decisions in sustainable development and the strategy for utilizing industrial heritage. The purpose of this paper is to provide a comprehensive overview of the research on the potentiality of buildings or sites. It also constructs a system for the assessment of adaptive reuse potentiality in industrial heritage and describes the characteristics of different dimensions in the indicators of potentiality evaluation. Utilizing the Improved Entropy Technique for Ordering Preferences by Similarity to the Ideal Solution (Improved Entropy TOPSIS), the relative values of the reuse potentiality of each hierarchical evaluation index are calculated, and an adaptive reuse potentiality ranking of various industrial parks is determined. Through the calculation and analysis, it is demonstrated that the application of this quantitative method to the industrial heritage potentiality evaluation system is highly applicable. This paper’s research framework for adaptive reuse potentiality and empirical findings provides targeted recommendations for determining the reuse potentiality and potential hierarchy of industrial heritage, identifying buildings with a high potential for reuse, and developing adaptive reuse strategies to better direct industrial heritage in urban regeneration.

An Evaluation Study on Tourists’ Environmental Satisfaction after Re-Use of Industrial Heritage Buildings

“…The current research covers various aspects of industrial heritage preservation, reuse, and sustainability [13,14]. Through diverse methods and perspectives, it seeks to determine the optimal utilization of industrial heritage [38][39][40][41]. Concurrently, it explores the effects of industrial heritage building reuse on urban planning, economic development, and cultural preservation [53,54,57].…”

“…Marta Bottero et al used a multicriteria decision-aiding approach to rank the preferences of different stakeholders for reuse strategies of industrial heritage, determining the optimal reconstruction and reuse strategies [40]. Fanlei Meng et al used the improved entropy TOPSIS method to determine the relative values of reuse potential for various hierarchical evaluation indicators, providing targeted recommendations for industrial heritage reuse [41]. These research findings provide valuable theoretical guidance for industrial heritage reuse strategies and practices.…”

Entropy Change of Historical and Cultural Heritage in Traditional Tibetan Area of China Based on Spatial-Temporal Distribution Pattern

“…As seen in previous studies on cultural heritage, the combination of entropy weight and analytic hierarchy process can be used to evaluate heritage value and potential [97,98], and weigh the regional cultural stratification in urban structure using the entropy of spatial form [99]. It can discuss the inherent connections between place names, population, and ethnic groups [100], and evaluate the impact of endogenous and exogenous factors on culture using information matrices [101].…”

Suitability Evaluation of Old Industrial Buildings Transformed into Stadiums

“…The adaptive process of the regeneration of old industrial buildings was described based on architectural design. The entropy weight and matter-element extension methods have yielded specific results in the reconstruction and reuse of old industrial buildings [19][20][21][22]. Based on the three factors of environment-economy-society and the matter-element extension method, Xiao et al [23].…”
