本文设计了一个用于城市系统中城市增长分布模拟的地理模型. 该模型从等级结构以及空间融合
视角对一组城市间重力相互作用与创新周期进行整合. 理论模拟显示, 该模型可以重现城市系统 …

Scaling laws are simple, easily usable and proven relevant models used in geography for
validating various urban theories. These non-linear relationships may reveal physical …

Based on the parallel growth implications of the four urban growth theories (endogenous
growth theory, random growth theory, hybrid growth theory and locational fundamentals …

Spatial cycles that are general to the urbanization process have been widely observed in the
developed countries. These include (a) the decline of large agglomerations and the …

The growth of large urban aggregates (megacities) is analogous to the development of self-
organized structures known in physics. Using empirical data about changes in the built-up …

The aim of the study is to elaborate a model in the framework of self-organisation theory
which would describe how interactions between individual towns and cities can produce …

An important issue in the study of cities is defining a metropolitan area, because different
definitions affect conclusions regarding the statistical distribution of urban activity. A …

Spatial patterns seem to be very stable in Los Angeles, the most volatile of all US
metropolises. Processes suggested by the classical growth models to explain these patterns …

This paper develops a model which contains agglomeration economies, time variable and is
based on both demand-side and supply side considerations and microeconomic …
