Abstract

Improving the quality level of central areas of a city is among the major purposes of urban management and plans so that taking proper approaches could lead to revitalization of economic and social texture of such areas. Such an issue takes precedence when two factors are considered: first, the potential of such city textures in satisfying the current requirements of citizens has declined over time, resulting in deficiency in their effectuality which would make the very texture prone to abandonment, and second, the old textures are the symbol of history of a city with which the city is identified. With regard to the fact that the Complex of Hassan Padeshah of Tabriz is located in the central section of the city, it will not rule out the very claim. However, urban plans and measures with taking some policies like focusing on the suburban development have increased the imbalanced city development which threatens a city to get worn out from inside. The question posed here is whether or not the value of central quarters of the city of Tabriz has dwindled over recent decades. It is hypothesized that the development of suburban areas which is under the influence of urban management measures is a parallel factor contributing to the decrease in the value of central section of the city. Therefore, an investigation into the process of changes in the quality of central section of the city due to measures taken by the urban management and implementation of urban plans over the last 25 years has been the major cause behind the current study. To serve the objectives of the current research, mixed method (field and deeds study) was utilized and the analysis was made based on comparative-inferential method and trend analysis. The results indicate that Tabriz urban management’s taking dual stance against the central section and the suburban areas has devalued the central section of the city from social, structural, and economic aspects.

Abstract

With rising demand of urban travels, one of the main strategies to manage cities’ transport is enhancement the share of urban public transport. To increase the desirability of the use of public transport, various systems were designed and utilized. One of them is BRT. Immediate action was carried out in Tabriz Metropolis to use this system in the main street of the city leaded to disrupt the urban communications network and different problems. This research evaluated the goals and strategies of BRT system and the degree of users’ satisfaction of it in Tabriz by using field studies and statistical analysis. It has a descriptive-survey essence and data were collected by the researcher made questionnaire. Target society includes the passengers using BRT. The method of sampling is clustering and the designed questionnaire was reviewed via pre-test, its stability was verified by Cronbach alpha of 0.727 and its validity confirmed by presenting to experts and specialists. To prove statistical assumption, Kendall statistics, Summer’s Day, Chi-square, Pearson’s correlation and ordinal regression were used. The results show that there is an inverse and significant correlation among education and satisfaction rate of BRT system. It means that with increasing levels of education, the satisfaction decreases.

Abstract

The development of university centers is one of the causes of the modern physical alteration of cities and has a major impact on the development process of the city. This research studies the impact of university centers on changing and developing the use of spaces around Tabriz Metropolis. The research tools included observation and direct field studies, reviewing the maps of in 1968, 1996 and 2011 and using the base map in 2006 and changes made in the courses have been reviewed. GIS and SPSS software were used to analyze the maps. The statistical sample of this research is 480 uses around five universities (Tabriz State University, Medical Sciences, Payam Noor, Arts and Islamic Azad University of Tabriz). The research findings show the impact of university centers on changing land use patterns and urban development, especially the development of service and business spaces around these centers. Estimating the socioeconomic and cultural effects of academic centers on the surrounding uses has doubled the importance of changing the approach in the preparation of urban plans, the proper prediction of the effects of shaping factors and favorable landscape for the future of the city and the quantitative and qualitative development.

Abstract

One of the basic preconditions for planning to improve the quality of life and increase the level of sustainability in different societies is identifying the factors and elements that influence urban biodiversity. The economic dimension of livability is one of the most important dimensions affecting the quality of urban life and its promotion. Therefore, the present study is based on descriptive-analytical approach following two main aims: A- Identification and study of the status of economic indicators affecting the livability of the Tabriz Metropolis, B- Leveling economic indicators affecting the livability Tabriz Metropolis and providing appropriate model with livability of Tabriz Metropolis. In this research, the indices related to the economic dimension of livability in 12 indicators were identified by studying relevant research literature and interviews with experts, then structural-interpretive modeling technique and MICMAC software were used to express the relationships and type of indicators. Finally, to evaluate the status of economic livability of Tabriz Metropolis, one-sample t-test was used. The results of the study show the indicators of job security; enough income; proper employment opportunities; appropriate employment and opportunity to earn money were the most effective indicators on improving the livability of Tabriz Metropolis. In addition, the economic livability of the Tabriz Metropolis is low and unacceptable; among the 12 variables of research, only two variables, the ability to provide goods and services, and having a suitable job with the score of 3.10 and 3.07 are in a good condition and other variables are below the average. Therefore, exploiting a strong market economy is recommended in order to create a good job and invest in the region.

Abstract

Evaluating the sustainability status of tourism indicators in urban areas is one of the most reliable strategies for managers to ensure the sustainability of tourism development. The tourism life cycle model can accurately explain the sustainability of tourism development. The purpose of this study was to investigate the sustainability of tourism indicators and also the status of tourism life cycle in different regions of Tabriz. The research is applied and the approach is descriptive-analytical. The statistical population of this study consists of two levels: tourists and experts. The sample size of tourists was 386 persons selected by cluster sampling. Also, 20 university professors and tourism experts were used to prioritize the tourism life cycle stages in Tabriz. Findings showed that in terms of environmental, social, economic and physical sustainability, regions 1, 8, 8 and 10 with scores of 0.609, 0.874, 0.899, 0.698, respectively, have the highest score and the final score of all regions. Decimal is equal to 0.561. Also the results of the life cycle model findings showed that zones 8 and 4 are in development stage and the rest of zones are in intervention phase. Finally, the findings of this study indicate that the general status of Tabriz tourism is moving towards development, which requires improved management practices with an infrastructure investment approach.

Abstract

Noise is unwanted noise. Excessive noise is known to be a nuisance in the living and working environment. This ambient noise must be controlled and reduced to an acceptable level because high levels of noise, in addition to being annoying and annoying, also cause countless harmful effects. The purpose is to investigate and analyze the acoustic comfort in contemporary housing apartments in terms of urban spaces in Tabriz. The research method has a quantitative nature that is done as a field survey in two levels of questionnaire tools (perceptual status assessment) as well as field surveys (acoustic status assessment). The researcher-made questionnaire has been used as a data collection tool in the first part, the validity of which was assessed by a survey of professors in the field of architecture and acoustics and its reliability has been evaluated using Cronbach's alpha (0.926). All experiments related to airborne noise absorption field (background noise absorption and sound pressure level) using the 2260 device made by B&K Denmark. Initially, background noise is measured in both open and closed window modes inside the residential units. After that, SPL acoustic pressure level diagrams were drawn and evaluated using the specific and standard sound levels in decibels in different plan spaces. In the final stage, the acoustic standard of noise level (NC) is examined. The results show that the effect of traffic among other variables in the field of acoustic comfort, on the level of dissatisfaction caused by noise in urban areas in the Tabriz, is not only undeniable but also important to the extent that even with measurements The SPL sound pressure level did not change the patterns created at the noise level.
