The present study investigates the effect of media use and socialization on environmental behaviors in the cities of Sari and Joibar. The research was descriptive-analytical which was conducted using a survey method. The statistical population was people over 18 years old in Sari and Joibar cities in Mazandaran province. Using the Cochran sample size determination formula, 400 people were determined as the sample size. Multi-stage cluster sampling method was used to select the samples. The data collection tool was a researcher-made questionnaire with variables derived from Inglehart's theory of values, the pattern of environmental behavior of Kalmus and Ajigman as a theoretical framework. SPSS software was used to analyze the data. The validity of the instrument was confirmed by face validity and the reliability of the instrument was confirmed by Cronbach's alpha test with a coefficient above 0.8. According to the results, environmental behavior in the samples had a high average. There was a significant relationship between sociability and environmental behavior. Also, sociability has a significantand positive relationship with the four dimensions of environmental behavior (energy consumption behavior, environmental protection behavior, environmental behavior in travel and environmental purchasing pattern) and environmental advertising and media use only with the dimension of environmental purchasing pattern. It has a significant relationship. Independent variables explain 20% of the variance of environmental behavior. The novelty of the present study is the use of a comparative study of environmental behaviors between the two cities of Sari and Joibar with a quantitative method.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the land use distribution of urban neighborhood parks in terms of access standards to residential areas and population density in District 3 of Tabriz. Research method is analytical descriptive.The method of data collection is documentary. The statistical population of the research is region 3 of Tabriz city. Descriptive and spatial data of these parks are stored in the form of a database in GIS software and then by designing the network, accessing the area of region 3 of Tabriz municipality and determining the geographical location of the parks in that area. The service of each park was identified using a network analysis model. Also, using the approach of spatial proximity of parks, the current situation of District 3 of Tabriz Municipality in terms of the duration of citizens' access to parks was studied and areas outside the service coverage of parks were estimated. In addition to the above method, Thiessen analysis and buffering methods were used to determine the functional area and duration of access to each park. The results showed that by calculating the space covered by the service parks in the neighborhood parks of District 3 of the municipality, the existing parks in the neighborhoods of this area cover only 71.1% of the area under study. Therefore, the northern part of this area of the city needs to locate new neighborhood parks in order to maximize the access coverage of this part of District 3. In addition, the southern part of this area of the city, due to the uninhabited lack of access network, currently has no need to create a neighborhood park. Investigating and evaluating the access of citizens to urban parks from two dimensions is within this research realm, one in the form of GIS software and the other using two models of buffering and tsin is a type of innovation in this field of study.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the evolution of contemporary commercial spaces in Tabriz with a focus on the traditional market. This research is qualitative which is based on library and field study. It is done by the retroductive research strategy. The method of data collection in the library section is through systematic review of urban plan documents and related studies and in the field section is using the phenomenological method and semi-structured interview. Interviewees were selected from marketers and experts, and interviews were conducted until information was saturated (14 people). The novelty of this paper can be in the phenomenological understanding of the historical process of Bazaar in relation to political, geographical and economic factors of the city and region. The results indicate that this bazaar has played an international and national role. It has the ability to create value-added, and forming the activity clusters but with the advent of modernity, the introduction of new goods and services and the emergence of new spaces have stagnated. Usage of past experiences, traditional spaces are sufficient to transform into an exhibition for attracting the customers, leading to the recreation of forgotten professions. Such actions have helped to expand the audience and strengthen the spatial relationships between production, representation and service. Indeed It is possible to create a rational relationship between education and production inside the local workshops, customer service and representation spaces. These mentioned steps will provide multi-functional space with a priority of production and reproduction useful on a recreation of urban life.

The aim of this stuy was to investigate the situation of Rasht metropolis in terms of urban cycling and prioritization of optimal routes for designing cycling routes. The type of research was descriptive-analytical through survey method. The statistical population of the study included the citizens present in the cycling route of Gil Square in Rasht. Using Cochran's equation, 384 people were determined as the sample size. The research instrument was a researcher made questionnaire and its reliability was confirmed by using Cronbach's alpha test with a coefficient of 0.74. SWOT analytical model and QSPM matrix, hierarchical analysis (AHP) were also used to analyze the data. The innovation of the present study is in using the opinions of citizens and proposing optimal cycling routes on the same basis, with respect to rankings. According to the research findings, 52.33% of the research sample preferred to use bicycles and 36.33% preferred buses for city trips. An examination of the status of the current cycling route showed that citizens do not choose the current two-kilometer route, despite their high desire for cycling. More than 60% of the respondents have expressed their desire to use the bike path from Gil Square to Mosalla Square at low and very low levels. SWOT matrix analysis showed that the best strategies for upgrading the urban cycling system in Rasht are offensive strategies, especially the design of new cycling routes. In this regard, using the AHP model, the optimal range for this strategy was suggested.

The aim of this study is evaluate the quality of urban living environment in Baqershahr, Tehran. The type of research was a combination of objective and subjective methods. Data collection tools were documents, statistics and reports of related organizations and institutions. The quality of the living environment was evaluated with 23 measures in the form of pollution, ecological, infrastructure and urban facilities indicators in 5 degrees. Due to the heterogeneous importance of indicators and metrics, AHP model was used to determine the weight of indicators. Documentary data were combined with mental data and by devising a mathematical model and while determining the weight for the measures, the final result of the evaluation was expressed quantitatively and as a relation of the ideal situation. The results showed that 4 measures are in the very good range, 4 measures are in the good range, 4 measures are in the medium range, 8 measures are in the poor range and 3 measures are in the bad range. In terms of scores of 1 to 5 for the 5 spectra evaluated, the weighted average of the measures in terms of weight application for the measures was 3.31 and without it were 2.91. The results indicated that the study area has 66.1% of the desired quality of life and therefore the quality of living environment in Baqershahr is evaluated at a moderate level. High per capita urban green space and the rate of utilization of places from piped water and urban gas networks are strengths and air pollution due to the industrial nature of the region and proximity to Tehran and the presence of desert around, lack of sewerage network and low per capita cultural, sports, health and education were among the important shortcomings that were observed in this study.

The purpose of this study was to determine the vulnerable and resistant areas of alluvial areas of west of Tehran against seismic hazards. The research method included the study of important fractures, effective faults, the use of sediment diagrams of drilled boreholes and geotechnical data. Samples were examined from two aspects of density and standard penetration test. Finally, an alluvial zoning map of the western regions of Tehran was prepared and plotted against seismic hazards. According to this study, the south-eastern part of the study area has the most impact in terms of intensification of seismic waves and its northern part does not have any intensification. In addition, due to the soil quality, the possibility of liquefaction in the study area is also important. Since the city of Tehran is based on alluvial formations, it is essential for designers and builders of civil engineering projects to examine the type and extent of alluviums and their response to seismic hazards in Tehran, as these data are used by planners to strengthen different urban areas and reduce seismic hazards. In this study, for the first time, the effect of seismic waves was evaluated based on the subsurface connections of faults with alluvial areas in the west of Tehran.

The purpose of this study was to investigate and analyze disturbing urban land uses in the area of Ashouri Street, about 2100 meters long, in the A area of Bushehr city. The research was applied-developmental and its method was descriptive-analytical and field survey and job checklist. In this study, all pollutants and disturbance guilds were first classified, then the type of pollutants and their disturbances, and then their qualitative and qualitative evaluations were performed. Quantitative surveys show that there were twenty-eight types of urban pollutants whit more than 60 active units on this street. In qualitative analysis, using Arc GIS software, density of annoying users and then compatibility of applications and their desirability were evaluated. The results show that the land uses are relatively consistent in terms of compatibility and in the utility matrix of their conditions is relatively undesirable. The findings of this study indicate the poor stutus of land uses. Within this area, one should think about intra-contextual development and consider spatial-spatial distribution of land uses with consideration of landmarks.

In this research, we attempt to simulate the land use development and scenarios prediction in 1420 to reduce the effects of unbalanced development on a region of natural value. To achieve this, the SLEUTH model has been used to simulate future land use and scenario. The data and information required for the study include slope, land cover, exclusion, urban development, transportation, hillshade, which were extracted from the SLEUTH model and its five growth coefficients. Then, using related research and researchers' opinions, the three scenarios of historical trends, protection of lands with natural value and multicenter network were evaluated.The results showed that the coefficient of expansion and gravity of the road have the greatest impact on simulation and scenario building and play a very effective role in the future development of the study area. Therefore, around the main communication axes of the study area, the pattern of linear scattered development, in the vicinity of villages and populated towns, the pattern of cluster development and in other lands with a separate structure, the pattern of scattered development and frog jumping have a spatial appearance. This development trend has been formed in the northern and central areas of the city-Mazandaran region more than other areas and the alternative scenario in order to achieve a balanced and balanced development model of the region is a multicenter network. The innovation of the research in simulating the development of constructed lands and the scenario of development developments in the city-central region of Mazandaran province is the prediction of lands constructed based on the SLEUTH model.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the location of sports activities with emphasis on social justice and spatial balance in Shiraz. The research method was descriptive-analytical based on 11 criteria. To examine the criteria from the layers of proximity to compatible uses, the following variables were used: Non-proximity to incompatible uses, access to public transportation, access to public parking, access to the arterial transportation network, determining the radius of performance at regional and transregional scales, consideration of the approved use of detailed plan, young population, population density, available sports per capita and the lack of inappropriate slope. In order to determine the priority of each criterion, a researcher-made questionnaire was completed by 40 experts, then by forming a pair of data comparison matrix, the score of each criterion was determined by the experts and 7 priorities were extracted. The results revealed that the fuzzy overlap method had more flexibility than the index overlap. The results of the two methods shared about 60%. From the research findings, it can be concluded that the use of GIS and AHP is a suitable method for evaluating location, and planners and city managers are recommended to use the results of this research to locate new sports centers. The innovation of this research is the use of several combined analytical methods in the GIS context.

The purpose of this study was to determine the appropriate locations of fuel supply stations (CNG) according to the existing criteria in the western areas of Tehran. In this regard, by using GIS, a map of effective parameters in locating gas refueling stations, such as: population density, passages and access, land slope, compatible and incompatible uses was prepared. By utilizing the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) model parallel comparisons between criteria were performed and the importance and weight of each criterion was determined by using Expert Choice software. The results of weighing the criteria showed that the benchmarks of fire, access and population density had the greatest impact on creating suitable locations for gas refueling, respectively, and the development of gas stations in the western part of Tehran Municipality has not been done based on population needs of different areas. The output map obtained by spatial analysis and AHP indicated that among the available stations, about 29% of them are located in areas with good potential and 71% of places are in places with medium potential and no places are located in areas with unsuitable potential. Also, 32.53% of the areas have suitable potential, 43.76% have medium potential and 23.7% have inappropriate potential for construction of refueling station. The novelty of the present study is that it examines a set of effective parameters.

The purpose of this study was to determine an appropriate distance for the construction of a new university branch (unit) or the merger of existing branches based on the reduction of students and the absence of the need for a university based on standard distance using the arrangement approach. The research method is applied in terms of purpose and descriptive-analytical in terms of nature. In the present study, four centers and university units of Payam-e-Noor in the south of West Azerbaijan province (Miandoab-Shahindaj-Chaharborj-Keshavarz) were studied in terms of scope of student enrollment and optimal location, and the standard distance for student admission was determined. The results showed that the spatial distribution of student enrollment in the region was heterogeneous and university units were not located correctly relative to their centers. Also, Payam-e-Noor, the center of Miandoab, was the most suitable place in the region and the center of Shahindaj was the most unsuitable position. In the end, the most suitable place for students in this area, 11 km of Miandoab road to Shahindaj was suggested.

Today, the necessity and importance of dealing with women issue is due to the fact that women form half of the population of the cities, as a fact if the security of women is provided, the rate of women's use of public space in urban parks will increase. On the other hand, the lack of security and satisfaction with urban parks makes that women leave these spaces. The aim of this paper is to study the rate of security in different parks and the impact of physical-environmental facilities and public space services on the women’s sense of security. The research method is descriptive-analytical and a questionnaire is used to collect the data. The statistical population involves all the women using the public spaces of Tabriz city and the sample size includes 320 women. The results of the study show that there is a significant difference between the senses of security in different parks. The results of Tukey test indicate that women's sense of security in a neighborhood and regional parks is significantly lower than the roadside, and outside of the city parks.Also, The Pearson correlation analysis also show that there is a significant positive relationship between women's sense of security and environmental quality (p=0.001, r=0.43). Other results indicate relatively good condition for women's security in the parks of Tabriz (mean=3.44; Sig= 0.001).

Sidewalks are urban corridors where some of the most important social activities occur. Therefore, considering the criteria which affecting the beauty and optimization of these paths is of great importance in examining the views of the streets. Identifying the most important aesthetic criteria of the sidewalks is the aim of the present study. A total of four pedestrian paths from two cities of Mashhad and Gorgan have been investigated using visual quality classification and matrix approach approaches.The data obtained from completing 100 visual questionnaires were analyzed by 50 experts in two stages by using the visual quality classification methods and the matrix for achieving the measures, finally the most important criteria were identified.The outcome results of the questionnaire indicated that colour with 82/2% and green space with 77/7% had more effective role in beautifying the sidewalk paths respectively. Also, the results make it possible for researchers to prepare the possibility with intention of increasing more visual pleasure of urban landscape by using them .On the other hand, instead of effective abstract criteria on beauty of streets landscapes, more precise and practical criteria identified and the process of reviewing the beauty of streets landscapes have been speeded up and accurate for designers and planners.
