Traditionally, neighborhood centers have always been the hub of social interactions by performing a wide range of functions in accordance with the requirements of its time. A prominent feature of the historical texture of Yazd is neighborhood centers that address the general needs of local community and social life of local residents, providing suitable models in a variety of design fields. Accordingly, the goal of this research is to identify the indigenous patterns of neighborhood centers and to evaluate the interrelationship of these models in shaping the overall space of the neighborhood center in the historical texture of Yazd. Along with the specific design requirements of the neighborhood center, it demonstrates the desirability of the historic neighborhood centers in Yazd. Therefore, this research relies on the assumption that the desirable spatial structure of the neighborhood centers in the historical context of Yazd city corresponds to the qualitative components of desirable neighborhood center. In this applied research, a descriptive method has been adopted to explore two concepts of indigenous patterns and the neighborhood centers. By providing the necessary context, the indigenous patterns of the neighborhood center in the historical texture of Yazd and their linguistic structures are explained based on Salingaros principles using descriptive, survey and qualitative methods. The research findings exhibit that all identified patterns in different dimensions shape the general spatial structure of the neighborhood center in an integrated manner so that any alteration in these components can modify this overall spatial structure.

Hamedan with a long history in Iranian urban planning, has a relatively large bazaar.Mirzakazem Caravanserai and Golshan sara are among the most important caravanserais in Hamedan, which are important due to their location next to the historic bazaar of Hamedan, the commercial center of cities such as Zanjan, Kurdistan and Kermanshah.Considering the Importance of the Whole of architecture and the creation of living and living spaces, Christopher Alexander's living centers theory explores the pattern of living structures in accordance with the concepts of integrated universality and strong centers in the form of 15 features.This paper responds to the following question with descriptive analytical methodology, qualitative approach and library documents: What is the physical structure of the traditional Hamdan bazaar consistent with Alexander's theory?Many studies have been carried out in various sectors of the traditional bazaar and the concepts of the theory of living centers of Christopher Alexander with 15 features in various topics, including the castle of Gourtan, Iranian garden and Tabriz Rab’e Rashidi have been examined and the physical study of traditional bazaar in the form of concepts of the theory of living centers is a subject that has a history does not have. The results of the research confirm that the traditional Hamedan bazaar is consistent with the characteristics of this theory, and Golshan's camp has the highest symmetry, contradiction, echo, and integrity of the physical life of Mirza Kazem. The comparison of the geometric structure of the buildings and the fifteen characteristics of Alexander's live structures model shows that the role of the centers of strong, intermittent repetition, contradiction, separation of gravity, free space and boundaries in the structure of the buildings is greater.

The purpose of this study was to assess the qualitative components affecting the security of urban thoroughfares in the central roads of Hamedan and the method for so doing was descriptive-analytical. A researcher-made questionnaire was used to collect research data. The reliability of the instrument was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha test with a coefficient of 0.74. The statistical population was shopkeepers and passers-by in the area. Due to the uncertainty of the number of the study population, 384 people were determined as the sample size using the Cochran uncertain statistical population formula. The study of security in the streets of Hamadan is a subject that has no background and its results are complementary to the previous studies that Izadi and Haghi have dealt with in Imam Square of Hamadan.The results showed that Bouali Street has the highest security compared to the other five passages. In this street, activity and land use with 0.87 operating load was the highest position. Other streets in terms of security conditions were Shariati Street (activity and land use with 0.72), Takhti Street (activity and land use with 0.66), Babataher Street (activity and land use with 0.63), Shohada Street (role of social supervision with 0.48) and Ekbatan Street (role of readability with 0.42). The results indicated that the factor of activity and land use had the greatest impact on the security of urban roads in Hamedan.
