Abstract

The demand for well-planned, sustainable, and resilient city infrastructure cannot be timelier, for the urban share of Globe's population continues to rise. Cities are complex systems with intricate dynamics, necessitating a thorough understanding of how different elements such as sewerage systems, culture centres, transport systems, energy consumption, and sewage management affect the success of an urban centre. Simulation tools offer a drawing board kind of set-up to urban planners where they experiment and compare various scenarios to select the best. The design of sustainable urban infrastructure and its resilience have also been discussed here. Urban planners may use simulation tools to model and evaluate various possible vulnerabilities and corresponding response options. Further, the chapter discusses technologies such as spatial databases, AI and machine learning models, and building information modeling in urban simulation environments, and also an international case study of urban growth simulation in Portland, Oregon, USA.
