The effect of railway travel on urban spatial structure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We examine the effect of railway travel on urban spatial structure in a polycentric urban land use model. We focus on the role of access to the railway network. We find that if the number of train stations is limited, the degree of urbanization is higher around train stations, but the effect of railway travel on road congestion is small.

Urban Spatial Structure with Open Space [PDF]

open access: possibleEnvironment and Planning A: Economy and Space, 1983
Urban open spaces such as parks, open squares, parkways, etc, are considered as amenity resources or local public goods and incorporated into neoclassical urban land-use theory. Models characterizing Pareto efficient allocations and competitive equilibrium allocations with open space are presented.

States of Urban Spatial Structure [PDF]

open access: possibleEnvironment and Planning A: Economy and Space, 1979
A spatial-equilibrium model of a local public economy is developed in four settings. Each setting is distinguished by two factors: whether the city is ‘open’ or ‘closed’, and the method used to determine the urban fringe. The four settings are contrasted by use of a numerical illustration.

The Establishment of a Subcenter and Urban Spatial Structure [PDF]

open access: possibleEnvironment and Planning A: Economy and Space, 1990
How the utility level of a resident, the profits of a firm, personal income, city size, and the area for each activity vary in the setting of a multicenter city when transport cost and population size change is examined in this paper. Also, the performances of the endogenous variables both with and without a subcenter are compared in order to evaluate ...

The Spatial Structure of Crime in Urban Environments

2015
It is undoubtedly clich´e to say that we are in the Age of Big Data Analytics or Data Science; every computing and IT publication you find talks about Big Data and companies no longer are interested in software engineers and analysts but instead they are looking for Data Scientists!

Urban interactions and spatial structure

Journal of Economic Geography, 2007
This article specifies and solves a model of endogenous spatial interactions where agents choose to visit a particular location to interact with others. Equilibrium fails to achieve first-best levels of visits and population density. A construction subsidy can restore second-best efficiency, but not first-best because it does not operate on the visit ...

Urbanization, Migration, and Vietnam’s Spatial Structure

Journal of Social Issues in Southeast Asia, 1996
In North Vietnam during the war years from the mid-1960s to the mid-1970s cities were evacuated to minimize damage from bombing. As such the urbanization process was checked. In the South however urban areas grew rapidly as people fled the fighting in the villages. Reunification of the country led to an outflow of residents from the largest southern

Recent Trends in Urban Spatial Structure

Growth and Change, 1980
Results of an investigation of the existence and significance of employment concentrations outside the central business districts of large metropolitan areas are presented. Trends in the intrametropolitan location of employment during te 1960s and early 1970s are examined by using small-area data for two points in time.
