Modeling Urban Growth and Socio-Spatial Dynamics of Hangzhou: 1964-2010

Jian Feng, Yanguang Chen

Urban population density provides a good perspective for understanding urban growth and socio-spatial dynamics. Based on sub-district data of the five times of national population…

Spatial Analysis of Cities Using Renyi Entropy and Fractal Parameters

Yanguang Chen, Jian Feng

The spatial distributions of cities fall into two groups: one is the simple distribution with characteristic scale (e.g. exponential distribution), and the other is the complex dis…

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…

A Hierarchical Allometric Scaling Analysis of Chinese Cities: 1991-2014

Yanguang Chen, Jian Feng

The law of allometric scaling based on Zipf distributions can be employed to research hierarchies of cities in a geographical region. However, the allometric patterns are easily in…

Fractal-Based Exponential Distribution of Urban Density and Self-Affine Fractal Forms of Cities

Yanguang Chen, Jian Feng

Urban population density always follows the exponential distribution and can be described with Clark's model. Because of this, the spatial distribution of urban population used to…
