Descripción
Analogy-based protocol for accounting the material and energy flows within a city, permits quantifying the balance of resource inputs and waste outputs. The concept can relate to urban efficiency account and be explained through the first principle of thermodynamics: the amount of waste depends on inputs, which are the sum of outputs and the stock increase. But if measuring urban resilience or strategic redundancy, the output needs to be partially considered as new resource inputs, and thus metabolism refers to the second law of thermodynamics. Applied to architecture the term metabolism was in fact as defective translation of the japanese word shinchintaisha, term rather related to the symbolic replacement of the old with the new.
