Using a new approach for revealing the spatiotemporal patterns of functional urban polycentricity: A case study in the Tokyo metropolitan area

Sustainable Cities and Society, 2020
Abstract This research designs a new approach by modifying the Fast-Newman algorithm for better implementing the process of detecting functional urban areas (FUAs) and further revealing the spatiotemporal patterns of functional urban polycentricity through 20 view-windows of each FUA in the Tokyo metropolitan area (TMA) by using geo-tagged big data ...

Multiscale identification of urban functional polycentricity for planning implications: An integrated approach using geo-big transport data and complex network modeling

Habitat International, 2020
Polycentrism has gradually become a newly emergent dimension of global urbanization. Many countries worldwide have tailored plans suited to functional polycentricity, in light of the prevalent “ghost cities” or “empty towns” as lessons from the ...

Re-evaluating polycentric urban structure: A functional linkage perspective

Cities, 2020
Abstract Polycentric urban development has become the buzzword among urban scholars, decision-makers, and planners around the world. From the existing polycentric urban research, a functional approach is increasingly concerned by scholars except for morphological terms.

Defining Functional Polycentricity From a Geographical Perspective

Geographical Analysis, 2019
Despite the prevalence of polycentricity as a normative strategy in planning documents, a lengthy and inconclusive debate regarding its definition in academic research persists. The aim of this article is to eliminate the conceptual confusion surrounding functional polycentricity from a geographical perspective.

Density pattern of functional facilities and its responses to urban development, especially in polycentric cities

Sustainable Cities and Society, 2022
Abstract With the increasing demand for facilities services, revealing the spatial pattern of various facilities with different functions (i.e., functional facility) and the driving role of urban attributes are crucial to improve the spatial equity of facilities, but still little is known.

Functional Polycentrism and Urban Network Development in the Greater South East, United Kingdom: Evidence from Commuting Patterns, 1981–2001 [PDF]

Regional Studies, 2010
In contemporary literature on changing urban systems, it is often argued that the traditional central place conceptualisation is outdated and should be replaced by a network view that emphasises the increasing criss-crossing pattern of interdependencies between spatial units.

Functional Polycentrism in Portugal: an evaluation [PDF]

, 2011
This paper aims at develop an evaluation of the functional polycentrism of Portuguese municipalities. For that purpose, we develop a critical assessment of the concept of polycentrism and functional polycentrism whose assumptions guide most of the policies of regional planning, and present the main methodologies for its evaluation. We then proceed with
