Managing and modelling urban growth is a multi-faceted problem. Cities are now recognised as complex systems through which non-linear and dynamic processes, emergence and self-organisation occur. The design of a system that can handle these complexities is a challenging prospect. This paper presents an urban planning tool for the city of Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. At the core of the system is a Fuzz...

It remains unclear on how transportation network interacts with economic in an urban-rural agglomeration, while such knowledge is crucial for system governance and sustainability. We explored spatial interactions the Zhongyuan Urban-Rural Agglomeration (ZURA) from 1995 to 2015. The structure of was measured by syntax model, that gauged improved gravity model. associations between networks were ...

The world has been urbanizing for centuries (United Nations 2001; United Nations Centre for Human Settlements [1996] 2000). While some scholars note a decline in the significance of space and distance as the result of telecommunications advancements and globalization (Cairncross 2001), other thinkers point to the continuing, if not increasing, importance of proximity and multiple benefits of ur...
