One of the features of a pedestrianized city is having suitable public places so that citizens could spend their leisure time there. Making such spaces is, one of the important duties of city managers. Chaharbagh Abbasi Street, having the characteristics of third places such as green spaces and shady trees that can bring a sense of belonging and memories for pedestrians is now available as a pedestrian for citizensIn this research, the conceptual model was defined, by studying library document and also, which is done by examining other research works conducted in this field. In this model, the characteristics of the third places were classified as independent variables in four indicators of "uses and activity", "access and linkages", "comfort and image", and "sociability". And the extent of its effect on vitality index as a dependent variable was investigated by designing a questionnaire in the form of a five-choice Likert scale and analyzed by Smart PLS software with a second order confirmatory Factor method. The statistical sample size was obtained using the Morgan Table and the questionnaire was distributed randomly among 384 citizens in Chaharbagh Abbasi pedestrian area of Isfahan city. This study showed that, although “access and linkages” variables does not have a direct effect on the vitality variable, indirectly and through influencing other variables, it has a significant role in the vitality of Chaharbagh pedestrian space. In this research, 66% of the changes in vitality as a dependent variable were explained by independent variables such as “comfort and image”, “sociability”, “uses and activity” in the structural model. Since most of the citizens use the pedestrian space as a place to talk and have fun with family and friends, it is very crucial to provide a safe environment that can make the conversation space pleasant.

The old and inefficient urban tissues are areas that, separated from the evolutionary cycle of life, and have become the center of problems and inadequacies.This research aims to evaluate the feasibility of re-creating the old and inefficient fabric of Tepeh and Hamam neighborhoods in Ajabshir city. It is of applied type and descriptive-analytical method. The information was obtained in the field using a researcher-made questionnaire tool. To apply the SWOT model, 25 specialists and experts in the field of urban planning and municipality were selected and the questionnaire of the model was provided to them. SWOT strategic analysis model and quantitative strategic planning matrix QSPM were used to analyze variables and indicators. A five-level Likert scale was used to measure the variables in the questionnaire. The findings show that based on the SWOT model, the score of internal factors of IFE was 2.13 and the score of external factors of EFE was 2.58. Therefore, internal factors with a score of less than 2.5 indicate that weaknesses prevail over strengths, and external factors with a score of more than 2.5 indicate that opportunities prevail over threats. Therefore, the appropriate strategy for recreating the old neighborhoods of Tappe and Hammam in the street of Ajabshir is a conservative type (wo). The result showed that after prioritizing the results in the QSPM matrix, the strategy of eliminating the irregularity of the inefficient texture and the compactness of the granularity of the physical elements with regard to the possibility of turning these neighborhoods into commercial and tourism centers as the first priority for the regeneration and management of the development of the worn out and inefficient texture of the hill neighborhoods And the street bath of Ajabshir city was determined.Key words: urban regeneration, inefficient Texture, SWOT, QSPM, Tappe and Hamam Kuche neighborhoods, Ajabshir city.

The current research, with the perspective of future research, tries to identify the vital factors affecting the state of good governance in Aras Free Zone and investigate the effect of these factors on each other. This research, in terms of practical purpose and from library methods, survey, its nature is based on new methods in future research with an analytical and exploratory approach, using quantitative and qualitative models and analysis methods and structural cross-effects, such as Micmac and Delphi method. has benefited Based on this, during numerous discussion sessions and opinion gathering of experts and expert group of Aras Free Zone, 15 people as a statistical sample of the target population, 60 items or variables were identified in the form of 8 main indicators of good urban governance. Then, the above variables were weighted in the form of a 60x60 matrix of cross-effects by the elite group and defined in the Mic Mac software. What can be understood from the state of the dispersion map of the variables is the instability of the system. Therefore, according to the ranking of the direct and indirect effects of the variables and their scoring, the number of 21 variables that had more weight in both cases were identified as the main drivers of good urban governance in the free zone. Among the variables, citizens' and officials' trust in each other has the highest score and the most vital factor affecting good urban governance in Aras Free Zone, and administrators' adherence to the law, strategic vision, and social justice are ranked in the next ranks.

The alienation feeling is a kind of mental state arising from the city in which the citizens feel a sense of separation and lack of belonging towards themselves and the city social, physical, cultural and historical environments. Urban spaces make citizens feel alienated. This research was done with the aim of presenting a conceptual model to explain the causal, background and intervention conditions that affect the urban space alienation feeling. In this mixed method research in the qualitative stage, interviews were conducted with 32 Ahvaz citizens until theoretical saturation, and by the theme analyze, a conceptual model was presented to explain and how the conditions affect the alienation feeling. In the quantitative stage, with the structural equation modeling, the alienation feeling causal structure was investigated for 310 Ahvaz citizens who were randomly selected in a stratified manner. Qualitative findings showed that city space ineffectiveness, insecurity, lack of city vibrancy, poor quality of city structures, city inaccessibility and unviability are the most important causes of the alienation feeling. The gender, family, ethnicity and culture of the people are also the background conditions. Inaccessibility has the greatest effect with a causal path coefficient of 0.65, followed by urban space insecurity with a coefficient of 0.60. The unviability of the city with a causal path coefficient of 0.51 had the least impact on the feeling of alienation in the urban space of Ahvaz. The feeling of alienation in urban spaces is strongly affected by interventions such as policy and legislation, urban designs, and gender segregation. The optimal and intelligent design of cities, taking into account individual and gender differences, ethnic and cultural symbols, and of course the security and accessibility of the city, provides the possibility that citizens feel less alienated from the urban space and their residence place.

Today, the speed of urban development has exceeded the capacity and ability of governments to expand infrastructure and provide services and create employment, as a result, the phenomenon of informal settlement has spread rapidly and irregularly. Statistics show that a population of metropolises and even many medium-sized cities have settled in disorderly habitats and on the outskirts of cities, which constitute the poorest groups of the urban population, this shows the necessity of efforts to create better conditions in these settlements. . Today, one of the new ways to analyze the current and upcoming challenges is to use the foresight approach and look at the present from the future. Due to the rapid growth of the population and migration during the past decades, the city of Khoy has not been able to provide suitable conditions for the settlement of a part of the population. For this reason, the population that moved to the city of Khoy was forced to live on the outskirts of the city and created a phenomenon called informal settlements. This research was written with the aim of identifying the influencing factors on the expansion of informal settlements in Khoy city. For this purpose, the Delphi method was used to identify the influential factors, and the result was the identification of 72 factors in 6 different areas, then the mutual effects analysis method was used to extract the key influential factors, and as a result, out of the total of 72 factors, 26 Factors were identified as key factors.

Earthquake is considered as one of the most catastrophic and destructive types of natural hazards that cause extensive damage to property and assets, especially in urban areas, and cause many human casualties by destroying buildings and urban infrastructure. Therefore, the first and most basic step in crisis management in order to reduce the effects of an earthquake is to identify vulnerable levels against this crisis. In this regard, the present research was written with the aim of evaluating the level of vulnerability of Ardabil city against the earthquake crisis. The research method in the present study is mixed (quantitative and qualitative) with practical purpose and analytical and exploratory nature. The statistical population of the research also included managers and elites of Ardabil city, and the sample size was determined through the Delphi method of 20 experts. Also, in line with information analysis, have been used AHP technique in Expert Choice software, Weighted Overlay method in GIS software, and RADIUS damage estimation model. The findings of the research show that by examining 15 criteria, the criteria of distance from the fault, proximity to hazardous uses and access to service centers have the most importance (influence) to assess vulnerability to earthquakes. Also, according to the evaluation of the examined criteria and its integration in the fuzzy overlay method, it was found that about 13% of the tissue of Ardabil city is in the zone of very high vulnerability and about 18% is in the zone of high vulnerability. On the other hand, the results of the RADIUS model show that 13853 buildings are subject to destruction, 36% of them are in region 1 and 29% of them are in region 4. Also, the number of injured in the possible earthquake is estimated to be 67117 and the number of dead is 3113.

The ineffectiveness of urban comprehensive plans in facing the complex issues of Iran's urban planning system, finally caused a change in the approach of compiling these plans from a purely physical approach to a spatial-strategic approach as a new approach in the conditions of urban planning in Iran, and the preparation of urban development plans with this approach was approved by the Iran Supreme Council of Urban Planning and Architecture in the summer of 1400 AH. But, the important point in this way is to pay attention to providing the necessary capacities to prepare plans with this approach. Therefore, the main goal of the current research is to analyze the challenges of using this approach with an emphasis on the challenges of its participatory aspect, which was done based on the pathology of obstacles to the participation of stakeholders in the experience of Isfahan Comprehensive Plan as the first plan prepared with this approach. The research method is qualitative and based on it, the data collection method includes in-depth semi-structured interviews and refer to documents, and the qualitative content analysis method was used in the data analysis. The findings of the research showed that participation in the preparing Isfahan Plan by all three stakeholders, including the public sector, civil society and planners, has faced many challenges and these challenges consist of three main categories of institutional environment, structural factors, and content and procedural characteristics of the manuscript of the new approach, And it seems that until the participation is not institutionalized in the planning context of Iran and the attitude of the stakeholders towards participatory planning is not changed the transition to the new approach will not be practical and this change of attitude will remain only at the level of changing the discourse

The excessive increase of cities and their uneven growth due to natural population growth and excessive migrations is one of the fundamental problems of our country's urban network. Cities grow differently, including internal or endogenous development, connected or continuous urban development, and detached urban development. However, the issue of importance is how physical growth and development are formed and the extent and manner of expansion of cities, which has brought various economic-social and primarily environmental consequences. The purpose of this research is to investigate and analyze the factors affecting the physical development of Piranshahr City and its environmental consequences for the future development of the city and to control and guide its determining factors and forces. To analyze the data from factor analysis methods, multivariate regression analysis (using SPSS software), as well as the use of Landsat 8 satellite images and the Crosstab model in the years 1365 to 1395 in two fifteen-year periods for the city of Piranshahr, and with The use of satellite image processing techniques and geographic information system have been evaluated and analyzed. The results of this article showed that the built area of Piranshahr city has increased from 144 hectares in 1365 to 958.77 hectares in 1395, which indicates a physical expansion of 6.5 times for this city, which is the result of population increase (natural growth - migration) and change of land use (agriculture, orchards, barren lands) to urban built lands.

RFID enables the automatic identification, tracking, and management of objects, humans, and animals using radio frequency communication. RFID function depends on two tag and code readers that use radio waves to communicate with each other. In this study, RFID is an electronic payment system that uses a tag to pass tolls. The RFID tag is unique to each vehicle and connects to the windshield or headlight with a built-in radio frequency chip. The RFID tag attaches to the Touch 'n Go eWallet software. When a vehicle passes through tolls, an overhead scanner reads the radio frequency from the RFID tag, deducts the fare, and is chargeable. RFID is targeted at the toll system to be able to quickly identify objects, thus providing time savings and revolutionizing payment management. The purpose of this study is to introduce RFID technology and explain the need to use it to electronicize road tolls and subsequently make cities smarter. The present study is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-survey based on its nature and method. The statistical population consists of 50 experts and officials of the Road Traffic Control Organization, Mashhad Municipality ICT Organization, personnel present at the entrance gate of Mashhad-Baghcheh tolls and 100 drivers passing through this highway. Data were collected through a researcher-made questionnaire and analyzed using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Considering the level of significance of the test, it can be said that this technology can be used in cities and the results indicate that by equipping cars with RFID technology, complete management and supervision of highways, information management, accident management, location management and complete driver management Facilitates own driving.

In recent decades, urban population growth has led to an increased demand for food resources. In such a context, innovative approaches such as urban agriculture development have been proposed. The present study aims to investigate the trends in urban agricultural land changes within the boundaries of Marivan city from 1972 to 2022. It seeks to assess the available land, potentials, and strategies for the development of urban green spaces based on urban agriculture principles. The research methodology employed a descriptive-analytical approach, utilizing Landsat satellite imagery for data collection. Radiometric and atmospheric corrections were applied, along with the NDVI index using ENVI software. After generating maps, the evolution of land use changes and the extent of available land for urban agriculture in the study area were examined for the year 2022. Furthermore, this research provides practical solutions and recommendations for the implementation of urban agriculture in Marivan city, based on its potential. A noteworthy aspect of this research is its intention to explore the suitability of land and potentials for urban agriculture in Marivan as a new model for developing urban green spaces. The results of the study indicate that urban agricultural lands have gradually decreased over various periods from 1972 to 2022 due to the city's growth and other human activities in peri-urban areas. However, as of 2022, approximately 2,799 hectares of land are available for urban agriculture, serving as a new model for the development of green urban spaces in Marivan. Several factors contribute to Marivan's success in maintaining agricultural lands and orchards in peri-urban areas. These factors include its favorable climate and geography, strategic location, proactive policies, water resource management, commercialization of agricultural products, prevailing economic conditions, and a substantial labor force. The region has experienced relative climatic stability, ensuring the sustainability of its agricultural lands and orchards.

One of the dangers that threaten many cities in the world is earthquakes. Earthquake has long been one of the most dangerous natural hazards and has a high risk. Earthquake risk is an expected damage that will cause damage to elements of society or the environment. For this reason, the protection of the city against earthquakes cannot be considered only in retrofitting and building earthquake-resistant buildings. The connection of the northwest of the country has been done after obtaining the opinions of experts in earthquake and passive defense and urban planning, the necessary investigations and analyzes were carried out using Vikor and TOPSIS fuzzy models, and the result of the model was shown using GIS software as a vulnerability map of the display areas. has been given and finally, areas 2, 3, 7, 4, Tabriz metropolitan municipality with less vulnerability and areas 10, 5, 1, 9, 6 and 8 located in the northeastern and northern areas of the city have been identified as unsuitable and critical. and the causes of vulnerability were expressed and solutions to control vulnerability were presented using data and matching the results of models.

One of the basic prerequisites for attracting the participation of citizens is the existence of appropriate urban spaces, which can meet the needs of citizens from different dimensions and improve the level of their interactions. , and the clutter of the urban body is very important. The purpose of the current research is to investigate the structural model of the role of urban space in enabling citizens to participate in Shahrekord, and in terms of the purpose (type of use) it is an applied research. The method used in this research is a descriptive-analytical method. The statistical population of this study includes the residents of Shahrekord with the number of (190,441). The number of samples was determined to be 383, based on the Cochran's formula, and randomly available. The data collection tool included a 38-question questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed based on structural equation path analysis with AMOS software. The results show that, in general, urban space, the level of citizen participation in the city. The approach has had a positive and significant effect, as urban space has had an impact on participation with a coefficient of 0.17, and the relationship between the physical structure of public spaces has the greatest impact on participation with a coefficient of 0.45, and a network structure. On participation, the coefficient of impact is 0.19.

Earthquake is one of the most dangerous, destructive and unpredictable natural hazards. Therefore, identify the vulnerable areas of cities is necessary in order to increase the capacity to deal with earthquake risks and crisis management of this risk. In this regard, the present study was written with the aim of investigating the vulnerable levels of Tabriz metropolis against earthquakes and providing crisis management solutions (before the crisis) to reduce the effects of earthquakes. The research method in the current study is mixed (combination of qualitative and quantitative approaches) with a practical purpose and analytical-exploratory nature, in order to analyze information; FAHP method in ArcGIS and PROMETHEE method were used. In addition, the statistical population of the research includes managers, city officials, and academic elites. The sample size of managers and officials was determined using Cohen's method at the 95% confidence level, 90 people, and the method of accessing them is based on the snowball method. The size of the sample of academic elites is also determined based on the targeted Delphi sampling method of 14 people. The findings of the research show that the peripheral and central areas of the city have the highest vulnerability potential. Meanwhile, regions 10 and 1 with net flow of -0.454 and -0.527 are considered among the areas with high vulnerability to earthquakes. Among the factors affecting the vulnerability of these areas, we can mention the proximity to the fault, wear and tear of the tissues, distance from the aid centers, high density and the lack of elasticity of the roads. For this purpose, a systemic and integrated approach is needed in order to be able to recover and empower the community, and in this regard, it is necessary to pay attention to the pre-crisis stage in the dimensions of building retrofitting, improving access and

The patterns of land separation are one of the tools that allow land users and urban designers and planners to control the existing and future development and construction of the land and use it with appropriate standards and criteria. and close the shape of the city. Therefore, the way of separation and compliance with the principles and rules of urban planning and the effective components during the separation of urban lands will have a significant impact on cities. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to investigate the patterns of segregation and the factors affecting it in the suburban areas of Ardabil city. The current research is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-analytical in nature. The statistical population of the research was made up of executive experts in housing and urban development and the Islamic Revolution Housing Foundation of Ardabil city, 50 of them were selected by snowball method and the questionnaire was completed. The obtained data were analyzed using SPSS and Excel software, and after weighting the studied indicators using the Shannon entropy method, the selected areas were selected using the COPRAS model. were ranked. The results of the implementation of the mentioned model show that in terms of the factors affecting land segregation patterns in the suburbs of Ardabil city, Sablan town, dadghostari town, karshenasan town and sina town are ranked first to fourth respectively. are located The components affecting land separation play a decisive role in identifying the land separation pattern. Therefore, it is pointless to consider a fixed pattern for all urban spaces considering the effective components. As a result, the optimal pattern of land separation should always be reviewed and monitored by considering the effective components.

The current research was conducted with the aim of the relationship between environmental protection behaviors and the mediating role of professional ethics in athletes. The research method was descriptive-correlation studies based on structural equations. The statistical population of the research was made up of all the athletes, who were selected as a sample based on the multi-stage cluster random sampling method based on the unlimited population size and according to Morgan's table. In order to collect information, questionnaires of professional ethics and environmental protection behaviors of Kaiser (1999) were used. The reliability of the questionnaires was found to be 0.854 and 0.832, respectively, based on Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Data analysis was done through Pearson test and structural equations with AMOS software. According to the results of the Pearson correlation test, there is a significant positive relationship between professional ethics and environmental protection behaviors (Sig=0.001, r=0.714). Also, the results of structural equations showed that the mediation of professional ethics has a significant positive effect on the environmental protection behaviors of athletes.

Urban green spaces are essential for the well-being of the population. However, due to various factors, the distribution of green spaces among city neighborhoods in quantitative and qualitative dimensions is often skewed. Hence, urban planners require effective tools to evaluate and analyze green spaces among the neighborhoods. The most common indicator used in green space assessment is the total area of green space to the total population, however, this index does not provide information on how green space is distributed in the city or region, as well as its ecosystem and ecological effects, which requires a more comprehensive study using new metrics. The aim of this study is to provide tools for a more comprehensive assessment to evaluate and plan better the location and quality of green spaces in the metropolis of Mashhad. For this a set of indicators for green spaces in a multidimensional framework was applied. The indicators considered (i) the total area of green spaces in relation to population and urban context, (ii) the quality of green spaces based on its size, density, the average Euclidean distance, and (iii) the accessibility of green spaces based on its shape, aggregation index, share of population supplied by GS, using the Geographic information system, Fragstats software. The proposed indicators were tested in seventeen municipalities of Mashhad. The results show that districts 17, 6 and 7 have the best and districts 15 and 16 which are among the least privileged areas of the city, have the worst situation of spatial distribution of green space in Mashhad.

Resilience Against Earthquake, which is actually how geographical, societal, economic, institutional, and so on societies are affected by disasters, is one of the issues that should be addressed in every society. It is important to note that the type of attitude toward resilience and how it is analyzed on the one hand plays a key role in how resilience is understood and its causes and on the other hand it affects the policies and measures of risk reduction and how to deal with it. The purpose of this study was to classify new urban Habitations of Isfahan city against earthquake hazard. According to the investigated components and the nature of the issue, the approach that is used in this research is "descriptive-analytical". The statistical population of this research consists of 6 new Habitations of Shahin Shahr, Majlesi, Sepahan Shahr, Fooladshahr, Baharestan and Shahid Keshvari Township. The purpose of this research is practical and has been done in the literature and Library of research for data collection through library method. In this study, the authors sought to answer the question of what is the level of resilience of new urban Habitations in Isfahan urban area against earthquake? Based on the results of this study, the new Habitations of Shahin shahr, Shahid Keshvari, Baharestan, Fooladshahr, Sepahan Shahr and Majlesi with desirable functions of 0.889, 0.335, 0.300, 0.279, 0.275 and 0.272 respectively have Ranks 1 to 6 in social resilience against earthquake risk.
