Form Follows Function? Linking Morphological and Functional Polycentricity
Urban Studies, 2011 Empirical research establishing the costs and benefits that can be associated with polycentric urban systems is often called for but rather thin on the ground. In part, this is due to the persistence of what appear to be two analytically distinct approaches in understanding and measuring polycentricity: a morphological approach centring on nodal ...

Functional Polycentricity: A Formal Definition in Terms of Social Network Analysis
Urban Studies, 2007 Polycentricity is often used descriptively with regard to a regional system of settlements, usually referred to as a polycentric urban region (PUR). Although presented in much of the literature as in essence a morphological concept, polycentricity possesses a functional element that receives less attention.

Measuring functional polycentricity for the analysis of structural places. The case of the seven principal metropolitan areas in Spain. [PDF]
, 2013 The study of polycentrism is responsible for identifying subcenters that integrate urban systems, as well as measuring the magnitude of the phenomenon in urban reality. This paper presents the analysis of measure of functional polycentricity, applying the functional polycentricity index presented by Green (2007) for seven metropolitan areas in Spain ...

Re-evaluating polycentric urban structure: A functional linkage perspective
Cities, 2020Abstract 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, 2019Despite 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.
