Measuring polycentric structures of megaregions in China: Linking morphological and functional dimensions [PDF]
Environment and Planning B: Urban Analytics and City Science, 2020 The idea of megaregions, which focuses on polycentricity, competitiveness, and integration attracts much attention in research and policy. China has used megaregions as a normative governance framework that leverages polycentric regional development for balancing economic competitiveness and spatial development. This paper explores to what extent these

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 ...
