based on, historical seismicity, position of 19-century instrumental epicenters, fault zones, relation of seismicity with active faults, and structural geology, statistics of earthquake activites, model studies for estimation of acceleration, and other information of intensities of iranian earthquakes, and for simplicity in the usage, the country is divided into two intensity provinces. in the ...
The transition from the world of tradition to modernity has different meanings and interpretations but it seems that the common ground between all culturally and historically rich countries is that following modernity does not negate traditions. Studying architectural status in a country like Iran and the analysis of the link between past and present architecture shows that we have not payed en...
We describe the algorithms we have developed to automatically generate street networks and building plots in the automatic procedural creation of a realistic city. Our system first sites the important regions of a city, such as the commercial center, historical center, and residential areas. Then, a network of freeway and main roads are built. Finally, a network of streets are built throughout ...
Typical low-cost, low-weight microstrip base station antenna arrays with beam-scanning capabilities are taken into account. In downtowns of large cities like New York, Chicago, and in historical cities like Istanbul, where high buildings are separated by narrow but densely occupied streets, antenna arrays with approximately 20◦− 35◦ beam-widths are required to complete the cellular communicatio...
This article considers recent literature on contemporary urbanization in Africa that is united in its 'post-normative' orientation, firmly discarding the 'expectations' of modernization that so deeply shaped twentieth-century research on African cities. Best typified by the work of urban anthropologists such as Abdoumaliq Simone, this scholarship instead focuses on the 'vernacularization' of ur...
Though explicit pronouncements are difficult to find, the historical literature on the Middle East seems to be based on the assumption that the large desert areas contain societies and economic systems which are for the most part autonomous, but which occasionally impinge--sometimes with catastrophic results--on the lusher agricultural and urbanized areas. The deserts are designated by terms eq...
Situation dependent route planning gathers increasing interest as cities become crowded and jammed. We present a system for individual trip planning that incorporates future traffic hazards in routing. Future traffic conditions are computed by a Spatio-Temporal Random Field based on a stream of sensor readings. In addition, our approach estimates traffic flow in areas with low sensor coverage u...
Many urban communities in the United States faced deteriorating physical infrastructure and social environment in the second half of the 20 century. To restore such inner city neighborhoods, many neighborhoods have adopted historic preservation as a means to both aesthetically and fiscally improve the condition. This paper studies a historic district in the Tree Streets neighborhood, Johnson Ci...
Many commentators have noted the existence of a historical correlation between cities and democratization. This image of the city as an inherently civic space is linked to the notion that the spatial concentration intrinsic to urban contexts promotes a democracy of proximity. Seen from this perspective, it is perhaps not surprising that the most urbanized region of the global south, Latin Ameri...
This paper discusses the extent to which the science of urban climatology has informed local climate change strategies in four city case studies – Stuttgart, Tokyo, New York City, and Manchester. The paper draws on historical and contemporary policy documents along with 60 interviews with practitioners, city officials, politicians, and academics in order to understand the use or non-use of urba...
