The present study was conducted with the aim of analytical evaluation of green urban development trends in District 22 of Tehran during a five-year period from 2011-2016. The research method was descriptive and analytical. Research data were collected in two time periods (2011 &2016) from official documents and databases of governmental and non-governmental organizations, especially environmental deputies and Tehran Municipality. In order to determine the extent of the effect of each of the criteria for evaluating the green city and scoring their performance in this 5-year period, experts used two separate questionnaires. Data analysis was performed using Expert Choice software and performance evaluation matrix and Excel spreadsheet. The innovation of the research is the use of various and valid criteria in relation to the green city in order to "evaluate" the performance of green urban development during a five-year period in the 22nd district of Tehran. The results of the study showed that in the study period, out of 39 criteria, 18 criteria had a good performance during this period, including: water sustainability policy, daily average SO2 and per capita green space, and 21 other criteria had ineffective or undesirable performance. The final result of the evaluation of the performance of the green city showed that the development of the green city in this region is in a moderate position due to its significant environmental potentials and is relatively far from the ideal point.

The purpose of this research is to develop a landscape design guide for Mehranrood based on the theory of environmental preferences of Kaplans and with a participatory design approach. The edge of Mehranrood near the historical bazaar of Tabriz is surrounded by a circle of inefficient spaces due to the design approach without the participation of the people. Citizen participation requires the intervention of people's preferences in the design process of this ecological area of the city. For this purpose, first, the visual qualities of urban design were classified based on Kaplan variables and became the basis for selecting images. The images were then scored using the VPT technique. The statistical population of the study was residents, merchants and passers-by in the study area. Sampling was done by simple random method and the sample size was determined to be 200 according to the Cochran's formula. This study shows that citizens' visual preferences are more prone to variables of complexity and readability. Although qualities related to coherence and mystery variables must also be present in the environment, they have a lower priority. There is also a relationship between Kaplan's variables and equivalent visual qualities in urban design. The degree of correlation between the variables of coherence and rhythm, complexity and variety, readability and visual permeability, mystery and wave motions is more than other variables in their respective group. The innovation of this research has been the simultaneous attention to the inseparable dimensions of objective and subject in landscape evaluation.

The aim of this study was to investigate the tourism climate of Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad provinces in order to make sustainable use of the natural capacities of the cities of the province in order to develop tourism and improve its position in the tourism industry. For this purpose, the comfort of the tourism climate in the cities of Kohgiluyeh and Boyer- Ahmad provinces was assessed using the TCI index in five meteorological stations of Yasuj, Sisakht, Dehdasht, Dogonbadan and Leikak. The combined analysis of ecotourism potential and tourism climate is a research innovation. The results showed that in the spring and autumn months, both in tropical cities and in cold cities of the province, suitable places can be found for tourism in terms of climate comfort.The results showed that in the months of spring and autumn, in the tropical zone cities as well as in the cooling zone cities of Kohgiluyeh and Boyerahmad province, it is possible to find suitable places for tourism in terms of climate. In the months of the summer season, only the coldness of the province, the cities of Sisakht and Yasouj, are favorable conditions for tourism in terms of climate, while in the winter months the tropical zone of the province is suitable for tourism. To travel to Yasouj and Sisakht cities, the best time is the months of June, May and September with the excellent tourist climate. To travel to Dogonbadan, Dehdasht and Likak cities, the best time is the months of April, November and March with the excellent and very good tourist climate. To travel to Kohgiluyeh and Boyerahmad province, the best time is the months of October, November and May with the very good tourist climate.

The aim of this study was to identify the key and effective factors on the resilience threshold of urban spaces against earthquakes in Zanjan. The research method was descriptive-analytical. Statistical population of the study The statistical population included all experts and managers of Zanjan Municipality. A total of 27 people were selected as the sample size and were selected using purposive sampling method. The research tool was an expert questionnaire. Using the concept of resilience threshold and socio-ecological approach in studying the resilience of urban spaces is a research innovation. The results show that most of the indicators related to proper planning and design of communication network and its coordination with the ecological context have the highest driving force. Based on the output of the model, the effective indicators on the threshold of social-ecological resilience of urban spaces can be classified into 9 levels, which in a more comprehensive classification can be divided into three levels of basic, link and dependent indicators. Most of the basic indicators that are most important in the urban space resilience system are institutional variables, while the link indicators are related to the characteristics of the road network and the natural context of the urban space, and finally the related indicators refer to the physical and functional characteristics of the urban space.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the feasibility of land use planning in the Master plan of Malayer city. If the urban development plans are implemented as approved, the public interest will be provided and many urban problems will be solved..In this regard, for the first time the Master plan realization of Malayer as a middle-sized city with a population of about 170,000 people was examined. The research methodology in terms of purpose is applied and of nature is descriptive-analytical.Needed information was extracted from the city's development plans. The results showed that like all comprehensive plans that are prepared in Iran by traditional methods, the comprehensive plan of Malayer city, is accompanied with weaknesses and threats of this model such as authoritarianism, separation of the plan preparation process from the implementation stage, certainty in locating uses, …, and has had little feasibility. Dedicated review of Malayer Comprehensive Plan showed that, in general, The feasibility of the proposed uses has been low. In the meantime, the uses of urban facilities and equipment, health-welfare, sports, hospitality and tourism services have been below the average. Educational, administrative and disciplinary uses, green space and forest parks, industrial, religious and transportation facilities have been constructed more than moderate and need and only residential, medical, commercial and cultural uses have been realized in accordance with the master plan proposals. In the meantime, the irregular increase in the level and per capita industrial and roads uses have caused more damage to the city of Malayer.
