Defining Urban Boundaries by Characteristic Scales
Yanguang Chen, Jiejing Wang, Yuqing Long +3
Defining an objective boundary for a city is a difficult problem, which remains to be solved by an effective method. Recent years, new methods for identifying urban boundary have b…
Understanding Fractal Dimension of Urban Form through Spatial Entropy
Yanguang Chen, Jiejing Wang, Jian Feng
Spatial patterns and processes of cities can be described with various entropy functions. However, spatial entropy always depends on the scale of measurement, and it is difficult t…
Describing urban evolution with the fractal parameters based on area-perimeter allometry
Yanguang Chen, Jiejing Wang
The area-perimeter allometric scaling is a basic and important approach for researching fractal cities and has been studied for a long time. However, the boundary dimension of a ci…
Recursive Subdivision of Urban Space and Zipf's law
Yanguang Chen, Jiejing Wang
Zipf's law can be used to describe the rank-size distribution of cities in a region. It was seldom employed to research urban internal structure. In this paper, we demonstrate that…
