Cities due to the compact and densely populated urban context and diverse urban networks usually are considered in the wars against ground and air attacks as a barrier. And on the other hand, struggles wanted or unwanted wars have led to the cities and sometimes causing high civilian casualties and damage to the city. Expert and track record militaries believe that urban warfare is one of the hardest battles of the model because of the possibility of resistance in the cities due to high intensive residential context and use different weapons to militants in their application package is limited. However, the military forces moved in is very difficult and may well lead them to the attacker's losses also increase under these conditions. Research methodology in this study was a descriptive - analytical. In this paper, after introducing key items affecting the spatial distribution and role of each one in the establishment and development of urban areas first, it will pay the expression of passive defense and civil defense in Tehran metropolitan area and second, to analyze the role of passive defense and settlement of the spatial distribution of urban infrastructure deals and the strengths and weaknesses of the studies discussed and finally, after a review and analysis of all factors will pay conclusions and provide effective strategies taking into account the spatial distribution and effective passive defense will be the key factor.
sprawl developments measurement indicator and projections in selected nigeri...IJAEMSJORNAL
Sprawl development is commonly attributed to the unprecedented rate of urbanization and city spatial growth. Large cities are not necessarily sprawling but are determined by characteristic compactness and connectedness of the metropolitan development and services including infrastructure and amenities. The understanding of the sprawl phenomenon is enhanced by some characteristic measurement of sprawl making use of certain development parameters. This paper therefore highlights an aspect of the measurement of sprawl utilizing the results from remote sensing data sourced from records of satellite images (from various Landsat and Nigeriasat) documented in research literatures. Also, the population census figures for each of the cities were sourced and projected as required for analysis and used in conjunction with their respective urban built-up land coverage. Results reveal varying pattern of relationship between progressions of urban spatial coverage changes and growth of population over a specified period of time. Intrinsic values from the computation such as urban population density and land consumption rate evolve as indicators for sprawl development and measurements.
Foreign Policy for an Urban World: Global Governance and the Rise of Citiesatlanticcouncil
In the latest FutureScape issue brief from the Brent Scowcroft Center on International Security's Strategic Foresight Initiative, author Peter Engelke discusses the long-term economic, environmental, and policy implications of urbanization. Entitled "Foreign Policy for an Urban World: Global Governance and the Rise of Cities," the brief examines how urbanization is hastening the global diffusion of power and how cities themselves are increasingly important nodes of power in global politics.
Peri-Urban regions are to a great extent characterized as the zones that
encompass our metropolitan regions and urban areas - neither urban nor rustic in the
regular sense. They are the quickest developing areas in numerous countries. The
Peri-Urban zone can be viewed as not only a periphery in the middle of city and wide
open, a zone of change; rather it is another sort of multi-practical domain. While it

dispersed settlements, and high reliance on transport for driving, divided networks
and absence of spatial administration.
Numerous worldwide difficulties emerge from the manners in which that urban

Graham, Stephen. "Switching cities off: Urban infrastructure and US air power...Stephen Graham
In this follow-up to a piece originally published in City 8(2), Stephen Graham offers a detailed portrait of the tactics and techniques of contemporary urban warfare. As cities have become more reliant than ever on networks, and as their infrastructures have become more fragile due to the vagaries of neoliberal privatization, urban-based warfare, which targets the systems—informational, medical, agricultural, and technological—that sustain the civilian populations of cities, has had disastrous consequences. Although terrorists have chosen to target urban infrastructures in an attempt to disrupt modern urban life, Graham suggests that the greater threat to metropolitan existence comes from systematic attempts by traditional powers, such as the United States, to disrupt urban networks, thereby effectively ‘switching cities off’. Policies of what Graham calls ‘deliberate demodernization’ have become the hallmark of US air power. Although such policies are thought to bring about asymmetrical military advantage, they also place civilian populations at risk. Such policies represent thus perpetuation of total war in a different key. Graham concludes by calling for further research into the new geopolitics of infrastructural warfare.

Despite the rise to prominence of sustainable planning, the state of urgency and the pressure imposed by the extreme competition between metropolitan territories reduces sustainability to a market-oriented doctrine for deregulated urban development. The aim of this article is an exploration of the current Athenian urban crisis, by centring on sustainable urban development plans, territorial planning institutions, and urban policies. To this end, the phenomenon of urban crisis is explained as a derivative of the failure of sustainability reforms. By establishing a link between the institutional framework governing urban development and the success or failure of sustainability reforms, this article seeks to contribute to the discussion around the attainability, scope and impact of sustainable urban development plans. Through the hypothesis that as long as territorial planning is used as means towards speculative urban development, it will only be equivalent to that of a real estate facilitating mechanism, it is argued that the urban development model of Athens, as well as the role that institutions have in its shaping, is incompatible with any notion of sustainability. The main contribution of this article is to potentially help towards developing a critical reflection on how projects, plans, territories and sustainability should be approached.

Skin Detection Based on Color Model and Low Level Features Combined with Expl...IJERA Editor
Skin detection is active research area in the field of computer vision which can be applied in the application of
face detection, eye detection, etc. These detection helps in various applications such as driver fatigue monitoring
system, surveillance system etc. In Computer vision applications, the color model and representations of the
human image in color model is one of major module to detect the skin pixels. The mainstream technology is
based on the individual pixels and selection of the pixels to detect the skin part in the whole image. In this thesis
implementation, we presents a novel technique for skin color detection incorporating with explicit region based
and parametric based approach which gives the better efficiency and performances in terms of skin detection in
human images. Color models and image quantization technique is used to extract the regions of the images and
to represent the image in a particular color model such as RGB and HSV, and then the parametric based
approach is applied by selecting the low level skin features are applied to extract the skin and non-skin pixels of
the images. In the first step, our technique uses the state-of-the-art non-parametric approach which we call the
template based technique or explicitly defined skin regions technique. Then the low level features of the human
skin are being extracted such as edge, corner detection which is also known as parametric method. The
experimental results depict the improvement in detection rate of the skin pixels by this novel approach. And in
the end we discuss the experimental results to prove the algorithmic improvements.

Engineering management to urban development, particularly construction projects are
usually considered a ‘high risk job’ mostly because of, a lack of adequate government’s act
with necessary policies, environmental information, and urban construction experiences.
Similar construction projects may have very different risk characteristics of different
development regions in Nepal. It is difficult for a newcomer to identify new risks, in a new
environment and politically instable in the country. It is more difficult to assess these risks
and impact of relationships among them. On the one hand, ignoring these risks is
irresponsible and unrealistic decisions by the professionals. On the other hand, identifying
and assessing all the new risks and their relationships is a very complicated, time-consuming,
and expensive process. This process is possible for the majority of projects, especially when
there are adequate amounts of information, skilled technical team, and enough time. When
such a complex scenario faced the accessing and responding these vital risk factors in urban
development projects becomes extremely important. Engineering knowledge is the basic tools
to apply for drastic change in the country's infrastructures for urban development.
Planning Smart cities- Concepts and Practices.docxJIT KUMAR GUPTA
Planning remains universal for making cities growth rational and logical. In the absence of planned development, cities cannot be made to grow in an orderly manner. Planners have been making cities different and distinct using different agenda for planning and development of cities. Currently planners are making cities safe, resilient, sustainable and livable. Many nations are vouching to make cities smart. Smart city is not a new concept .It has been followed globally to improve the quality of living and promote operational efficiency and productivity of the cities. It is an attempt to make cities more livable, sustainable and for creating a brand image to attract investment and make them a tourist destination. Globally , smart cities are characterized by high degree of environmental consciousness; using information technology to promote energy/ resources efficiency; creation of knowledge infrastructure; promoting sustainable economic development and high quality of life; ensuring wise management of natural resources through participatory action. According to Forbe, the structure of smart cities will have to be built on eight pillars involving: ‘smart governance, smart energy, smart buildings, smart mobility, smart infrastructure, smart technology, smart healthcare and smart citizens. Based on detailed studies and in depth analysis made of the most successful case studies globally, as how to transform cities into great places to live and make a city great, Mckinsey’s suggests three pronged strategies involving, achieving smart growth, do more with less and win support for change. Considering the entire gamut of urban settlements , a city can be made Smart only if it is planned smart, developed smart, operated smart, financed smart and governed smartly .

Most of the cities around the world are dealing with different kinds of the problems such as social, environmental, economic and others. However, for many years, urban planners have attempted to find solutions that fit within the context and have put them into practice in order to shape the form of a city accordingly. One of the controversial problems which most of the developing and developed countries deal with it is urban sprawl, which affects everything and everyone in different scales. For last three decades, even in case of T.R.N. Cyprus, urban sprawl has become inevitable; urban sprawl is recognizable, sprawl construction becomes a profitable business for construction, real-estate, and others involved in this business. Unfortunately, some communities to realize their vision welcomed to urban sprawl construction and enthusiastically embrace it with open arm, such communities sacrifice sociability opportunity and vibrant neighborhood to those single-use towns which is one of the main characteristics is social exclusion and psychological problems, fundamentally one of the key factors can be found in lack of public awareness especially for who prefer to live in sprawl town. In T.R.N. Cyprus urban sprawl didn’t promote auto-dependency. Despite urban sprawl in T.R.N. Cyprus have many repercussions, one of the important impacts which are considered in this articles are psychological impact of urban sprawl, also this article attempt to divide urban sprawl leaving condition into three phases, and promote the contemplate phase which makes sprawl inhabitants think and return to inner-city neighborhood again.

Today, regard for the wellbeing of the group and the earth is on the plan of most nations on the planet, and one of its imperative viewpoints is the contamination of the air and figuring out how to diminish it. Without a doubt, a standout amongst the most vital ranges that assume an unequivocal part in decreasing or expanding this parameter is the city and urban morphology. Tehran, which is viewed as the capital and vital city of Iran, has experienced this issue for a long time, and there are no legitimate arrangement found to decrease its air contamination. Then again, the city has movement from different parts of the nation consistently that makes this issue harsher. The most vital issue in such manner is the city's range, and in addition the city's extension, which decides the thickness of the city. The greater part of this must be joined by the wear and tear of a low standard, which includes a high level of contamination. The failure of the vast majority to purchase houses inside the city has made satellite towns nearby Tehran. Then again, the presence of tremendous local locations around Tehran and the area of workplaces in the downtown area are among alternate issues tended to in this investigation. This examination endeavored to utilize the explanatory expressive technique to think about the part of pressure and morphology of Tehran and its effect on air contamination and give answers for diminishing air contamination and movement.
Strategies for Planning Smart and Sustainable CitiesJIT KUMAR GUPTA
Smart city remains a misnomer. No city on planet earth can claim to be smart. Experts are still searching the soul of smart city in order to precisely define it .Unfortunately smart city has become a money spending/spinning exercise for few individuals/agencies. Entire concept of smart city has been made technology centric, minimizing the role and importance of human beings. In addition, role of Town Planners in smart city has been totally marginalized. How can a city be made smart without intervention of planning and planners. Smart city as a concept has been copied globally to promote operational efficiency and productivity of the cities , with minimum concern for human growth and development. Addressing issue of poverty and making city livable for all should be the agenda of urban growth and development. In the face of homeless people , absence of basic amenities and facilities essential of human living, making city’s smart will be a fallacy and prove to be counterproductive. Cities do not exist in isolation and require the support of rural hinterland. Dealing cities alone by excluding villages will invariably lead to lopsided growth of cities because genesis of majority of urban ills has roots in the neglect of the rural areas. Urban areas must do handholding for the rural areas for synergizing mutual strength and to usher a new era of rational growth. Smart city concept must focus on empowering human being/ living, making them more skilled, create options for meeting the basic human needs and removing the curse of poverty and unemployment.
Urbanization and Crime in India A Temporal Analysis from 1991 to 2011ijtsrd
Urbanization is social as well as an economic process it is a population shift from a rural agrarian society to an industrialized urban society. It is a result of the movement of rural to urban migration in search of a better quality of life, as well as is an outcome of natural population growth in urban areas. Urbanization is considered an indicator of the socio economic progress of a society. It has been considered by most of the researchers that more urbanized countries are economically as well as socially well developed. In the economic aspect, urbanization is good for the development of a region because it promotes industrial growth and the development of the economy. However, rapid urbanization and expansion of cities as a result of continuous migration have created various problems in Indian cities. From a social point of view, there are several adverse impacts of urbanization crime is one of them, which is recognised as the most negative effect of urbanization in urban areas especially in developing countries. Crime is one of the most contemporary social problems in urban areas of developing countries, and it is directly or indirectly correlated to the unplanned urbanization process. Some special urban characteristics such as size, high population density, heterogeneous population, impersonality, unemployment, urban poverty, and poor quality of life are responsible for the high crime rate in urban areas. The main objective of this paper is to understand some of the general theoretical as well as quantitative perspectives within which the link between urbanization and crime is explained in the best possible way in the context of India from 1991 to 2011.

Strategy for Promoting Sustainable Cities in IndiaJIT KUMAR GUPTA
Paper is an attempt to look at the options to make cities more livable, sustainable, productive, effective, efficient and inclusive in the face of rapid, massive,unplanned and haphazard urbanisation.
Paper tries to look at the planning, growth and development of cities and the manner in which they can be made sustainable in the context of 17 SDG. It tries to define agenda for their planning and governance while considering the new urbanism.
Urban planning and urban governance invariably remain people centric having prime concern/focus on looking at/ promoting the welfare of the people, improving their social, physical, economic and environmental conditions besides improving quality of life. Both are mandated to create supportive/enabling conditions and environment to help people to perform their basic functions involving living, working , care of body & spirits and circulation, in a most effective / efficient manner. Accordingly urban planning and urban governance remain interlinked /integrated, and have close relationship. No good urban governance can exist in isolation/ without the input of good and rational planning. Looking at the entire context of good urban governance, it can be fairly concluded that effective urban planning holds the key to good urban governance. Poor urban governance has its genesis in poor urban planning. For enabling urban planning to play its desired and designated role in urban governance, it will be essential that operational mechanism of existing pattern of urban planning is critically looked into, reviewed, revised and re-defined to made it more responsive to the emerging urban dynamism/challenges. Unfortunately, in India, role of urban planners has been diluted and marginalized and has never been given appropriate recognition. Limited numbers of planning institutions have contributed to restricting the number of qualified professionals. With urban centres holding the key, future growth and development of the cities will be contingent largely upon the proficiency, efficacy and efficiency of ‘Planning Profession and Professionals’. However, , for planners/planning to play its ordained role, they have to be made more responsive , professionally competent, having capacity /expertise to understand /appreciate the complexities of urban growth and development, based on prevailing ground realities, and evolving appropriate options. .Planning tools will also require review and redefining to make them more effective and efficient.

Cosmetic shop management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
Buying new cosmetic products is difficult. It can even be scary for those who have sensitive skin and are prone to skin trouble. The information needed to alleviate this problem is on the back of each product, but it's thought to interpret those ingredient lists unless you have a background in chemistry.
Instead of buying and hoping for the best, we can use data science to help us predict which products may be good fits for us. It includes various function programs to do the above mentioned tasks.
Data file handling has been effectively used in the program.
The automated cosmetic shop management system should deal with the automation of general workflow and administration process of the shop. The main processes of the system focus on customer's request where the system is able to search the most appropriate products and deliver it to the customers. It should help the employees to quickly identify the list of cosmetic product that have reached the minimum quantity and also keep a track of expired date for each cosmetic product.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

Advancements in technology unveil a myriad of electrical and electronic breakthroughs geared towards efficiently harnessing limited resources to meet human energy demands. The optimization of hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems plays a pivotal role in utilizing natural resources effectively. This initiative not only benefits humanity but also fosters environmental sustainability. The study investigated the design optimization of these hybrid systems, focusing on understanding solar radiation patterns, identifying geographical influences on solar radiation, formulating a mathematical model for system optimization, and determining the optimal configuration of PV panels and pumped hydro storage. Through a comparative analysis approach and eight weeks of data collection, the study addressed key research questions related to solar radiation patterns and optimal system design. The findings highlighted regions with heightened solar radiation levels, showcasing substantial potential for power generation and emphasizing the system's efficiency. Optimizing system design significantly boosted power generation, promoted renewable energy utilization, and enhanced energy storage capacity. The study underscored the benefits of optimizing hybrid solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems for sustainable energy usage. Optimizing the design of solar PV panels and pumped hydro energy supply systems as examined across diverse climatic conditions in a developing country, not only enhances power generation but also improves the integration of renewable energy sources and boosts energy storage capacities, particularly beneficial for less economically prosperous regions. Additionally, the study provides valuable insights for advancing energy research in economically viable areas. Recommendations included conducting site-specific assessments, utilizing advanced modeling tools, implementing regular maintenance protocols, and enhancing communication among system components.
CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!

Abstract
Cities due to the compact and densely populated urban context and diverse urban networks usually are
considered in the wars against ground and air attacks as a barrier. And on the other hand, struggles wanted or
unwanted wars have led to the cities and sometimes causing high civilian casualties and damage to the city.
Expert and track record militaries believe that urban warfare is one of the hardest battles of the model because
of the possibility of resistance in the cities due to high intensive residential context and use different weapons to
militants in their application package is limited. However, the military forces moved in is very difficult and may
well lead them to the attacker's losses also increase under these conditions. Research methodology in this study
was a descriptive - analytical. In this paper, after introducing key items affecting the spatial distribution and role
of each one in the establishment and development of urban areas first, it will pay the expression of passive
defense and civil defense in Tehran metropolitan area and second, to analyze the role of passive defense and
settlement of the spatial distribution of urban infrastructure deals and the strengths and weaknesses of the
studies discussed and finally, after a review and analysis of all factors will pay conclusions and provide
effective strategies taking into account the spatial distribution and effective passive defense will be the key
factor.
Keywords: passive defense, civil defense, territory, spatial distribution, spatial structure, land use.
I. Introduction
One of the main problems in spatial -
Administrative developing countries is new trend of
urbanization and the spatial implications, economic
and political. This species of countries during the
transition from nomadic way of living of the rural
setting to an urban lifestyle, face with anomalies and
structural crisis in ductility and often on their urban
network bring the centralist model of economic
growth (politics and economy) lead to the formation
of metropolitan in his new capital in a short time
become is imposed the first urban phenomenon and
the bodies of the urban network this space. The
geographical distribution of the population has
undergone major changes in the past fifty years, and
will continue to experience significant
transformations during the coming decades. While
the developed world became mostly urban around
1950, developing regions, including Africa and Asia,
which are still mostly rural today, will have more
people living in urban areas than in rural areas by
2030. Urbanization has brought a number of
advantages to the national economies and
opportunities for improving people’s well-being, for
poverty reduction and for the promotion of
sustainable development, but it also brings serious
challenges in many countries. Information and
analysis are essential to understand these challenges
and to assist policy-makers define, formulate and
evaluate policies and programs that address them.
The Population Division of the Department of
Economic and Social Affairs of the United Nations
organized an Expert Group Meeting on Population
Distribution, Urbanization, Internal Migration and
Development, which took place from 21 to 23
January of 2008 at the United Nations Headquarters
in New York. The meeting brought together experts
from different regions of the world to present and
discuss recent research on trends and challenges of
urban growth, internal migration, and population
distribution, the linkages and disparities between
urban and rural development, the challenges of
climate change for the spatial distribution of the
population, social aspects of urbanization, including
its impacts on health, and aspects of urban planning
and urban governance.
The level of urbanization varies significantly
across regions and countries. Europe, Latin America
and the Caribbean, Northern America and Oceania
are highly urbanized, with proportions urban ranging

from 70 to 82 per cent in 2010. Africa and Asia
remain mostly rural, with only 40 and 42 per cent of
their population living in urban settlements,
respectively. By mid-century, however, all regions
will be mostly urban, indeed more than 60 percent
urban, according to current projections.
The speed of urbanization is slower now than it was
in past decades in all regions, largely because many
countries have already reached high levels of
urbanization. The rate of urban population growth is
also declining and is expected to continue declining
until 2050, although it is still very high in Africa,
where the urban population was growing at an annual
rate of 3.4 per cent in 2005-2010, and in Asia, where
urban population growth averaged 2.8 per cent in the
same period. Nevertheless, the absolute size of these
increments is unprecedented: Africa gained an
average 13 million additional urban dwellers per year
in 2005-2010, and is expected to gain some 25
million per year in 2045-2050. Asia’s urban
population increased by 38 million per year in 2005-
2010, and is still projected to grow by an annual 35
million in 2045-2050. During the same period,
Africa and Asia will be losing 2.5 million and 27.3
million rural inhabitants per year, respectively.
Migration from rural to urban areas has historically
played a key role in the rapid growth of cities and,
together with the reclassification of rural localities
into urban centers; it continues to be an important
component of city growth. However, natural
increase, that is to say, the difference between births
and deaths on site, can contribute significantly to
urban growth, particularly in countries where fertility
levels remain high. Today, natural increase makes a
larger contribution to urban population growth than
internal migration and reclassification in the majority
of developing countries (United Nations, 2009).
Tehran during the past two centuries, first slowly and
then leap away from other cities in Iran, And not
only became the largest, most populous and most
influential cities and were converted other urban
areas of the country to their marginal spending, but
established during the last fifty years connected in an
urban area in the core of the Tehran province. Now,
along with other issues and problems of the urban
system, integrated management and urban separately
in the collection is the important challenges of
administration and bureaucracy poses.
Either offensive or unwanted, is infused with life
and human society, and it seems that in many cases
there is no escape from it. During its 5,000-year
history of human civilization on planet Earth has
been invaded by about 14,000 have died as a result
of more than four billion people, which In this period
was only 268 years of invasion and conflict Oddly,
most of these attacks also occurred in the third world
countries. Only in the twentieth century, more than
220 attacks occurred that has taken millions of
casualties. Passive defense as one of the most
effective and sustainable ways to defend against
threats, has been crucial for most countries and even
countries like America and the former Soviet Union,
despite having a very high military special attention
to this issue have been and neutral country like
Switzerland, despite two world wars and the threat of
being exposed, this is a great deal of attention.
Despite the geopolitical situation in our country,
possessing huge oil and gas wealth, antagonism
system and entering the field of new technologies
and the threat of global arrogance, did not pay much
attention to the issue of passive defense and even
inflammation of the war years is also necessary to
reduce vulnerability consciousness and attention to
sustainability issues in terms of security and defense,
did not play a good role. Passive defense to increase
deterrence can start a large role in reducing the
likelihood of military conflict and, if properly
implemented, could reduce the damaging effects of
the coming invasion. Passive defense strategy itself
has some key features that can be considered as a
guarantee of safety.
II. Problems defined
The rapid growth of megacities causes severe
social, economical ecological and problems. How
can this growth be nurtured in a sustainable way?
The challenge for land professionals is to provide the
megacity ‘managers’, both political and professional,
with appropriate ‘actionable intelligence’ that is up-
to-date, citywide and in a timely manner to support
more proactive decision making that encourages
more effective sustainable development. Spatial
information has become indispensable for numerous
aspects of urban development, planning and
management. The increasing importance of spatial
information has been due to recent strides in spatial
information capture (especially satellite remote
sensing and positioning), management (utilizing
geographic information systems and database tools)
and access (witness the growth in web mapping
services), as well as the development of analytical
techniques such as high resolution mapping of urban
environments. These more efficient techniques can
lead to a wider diversity of information that is more
up-to-date. Already be found in areas such as land
administration, natural resource management, marine
administration, transportation, defense,
communications, utility services and statistical
collections. The challenge is for users both within
and outside these areas of activity to break down the
information silos and to discover, to access and to
use the shared information to improve decision-
making, business outcomes and customer services.

project, including: Identification and classification of

III. Research needs
Cities due to the compact and densely populated
urban context and diverse urban networks usually are
considered in the wars against ground and air attacks
as a barrier. And on the other hand, struggles wanted
or unwanted wars have led to the cities and
sometimes causing high civilian casualties and
damage to the city. Currently, they are rare the
number of countries that are fighting and attacking
civilian areas chance of enemy aircraft and missiles
they are not offensive. In such circumstances,
civilians involving about war directly and scope of
the crisis, this time directly conduct into the
environment civilians. With this interpretation,
because effective programs of urban planners due to
that play effective role in the conduct of biomedical
and play centers and also due to the appearance of
their careers that same have been provided public
interest, its cannot separate such a wave and take the
edge off shore choose( Sarafi, 1998 :41 ) and it is
essential to be aware of other methods, including
passive defense (which can occur during accidents
and incidents reduce community vulnerability to
planning to move toward more desirable.
Administrations in large cities are often confronted
with a multitude of key problems, like high urban
densities, transport, traffic congestion, energy
inadequacy, unplanned development and lack of
basic services, illegal construction both within the
city and in the periphery, informal real estate
markets, creation of slums, poor natural hazards
management in overpopulated areas, crime, water,
soil and air pollution leading to environmental
degradation, climate change and poor governance
arrangements.
The inevitability of further population growth is
a common issue. Some cities reported that their
administrations have little control over population
growth; it was a regional or national issue and must
be addressed at that level. However, monitoring
population change effectively and being able to
respond through planning and infrastructure
development will be major challenges.
Subject passive defense of human life history is as
old as the world. Early humans and other animals to
avoid the invasion of their enemies and also to ease
the concerns of the caves, took refuge in the trees
and other natural safe place. With the formation of
early civilization in the world that the invasion was
associated with the occurrence of attack, Humans
basics of passive defense to armor and shields to
protect the individual or firm and tall towers and
fortresses to secure the group was widely popular.
There is a moat around the city and create a gateway
- fortified to prevent surprise attacks on the enemy
was common in all parts of the world. There is a
moat around the city and create a fortified gate to
prevent surprise attacks on the enemy was common
in all parts of the world. Passive defense measures
against the threat of invasion of the old building in
the form of forts, castles, fortresses and fortified
defensive trenches, build shelters - concrete and kid.
But after the invention of gunpowder and its use in
the manufacture of weapons and weapons like
throwing curve subject gradually, while relying on
passive defense of its principles, has changed.
During and after World War I, an invasion of the
damage caused by the invasion and destruction of
cities, factories, particular importance was the issue
of passive defense. During World War II, the use of
aircraft and bombed cities and industrial centers of
capital investment and then use the missiles began in
Nazism Germany. Damage caused by the invasion
and especially hurt civilian sector that people came
to the First World War, rising and this led to various
countries to give greater importance to passive
defense. In countries like America, the former Soviet
Union, Germany, France, UK, Canada, etc. and even
a country like Switzerland, neutral during both world
wars to keep the hand grab increasingly turned to
passive defense. Iran considering that the Middle
East has had a significant role in terms of defense
and security, in this context, projects and articles in
the field of passive defense is doing. Passive defense
of war or peace, but a readiness to deal with
incidents and then the necessity of knowledge about
the various natural and unnatural disasters it is a
necessity. Probably due to unfamiliarity with the
subject of passive defense is the lack of a systematic
approach that today the term has become a military
term, and if an issue is important in the social life of
the city.

IV. Definitions:
Spatial distribution:
Human built environment makes by activity in
the natural environment. The space is collection of
human activities, the natural environment and the
built environment. In other words space is not
limited to physical dimension and what it has
weather physical or non-physical include static and
dynamic space and has a time dimension.
Originally open space has adapted and change and
variability on the dynamics of the space cause its
expandability. In accept of change the ability of
different places according to the volume, variety and
velocity variations are different, so it is clear that
from clearly that space has limitations of growth and
finally saturated the physical capacity and content
development.
The most important issues in spatial planning are
spatial organization. Thus spatial organization is the
concept of order and purpose defined as a set of
units. Spatial organization is sequence and
distribution of the units of a public space in order to
set functions. According to R.P. Misra that is known
spatial planners of India: while we fly several
thousand meters of altitude over the area , we see
broad points of areas (biological centers) and their
interface lines (roads) that show rational organization
of space the area. Consequently, Misra said, we also
observed spots (such as agricultural areas), (forest
and pasture) should be added.
V. Spatial structure:
Adaptation to Space discipline on physical
environment is called spatial structure. Spatial
structure is the manifestation of a collection of
entities inside and outside the space and place of its
components in the context of the physical
environment; Spatial structure is the manifestation of
a collection of entities inside and outside the space
and place of its components in the context of the
physical environment, A place to implement spatial
organization may be in different forms and at
different spatial structures to find the truth.
Geographic space should be considered as a system
in which the elements of the domain of the natural
environment (such as uneven shapes, climate,
vegetation) with elements within the human
environment (such as population density and the
degree of their ways of life of the population are
optional, social structures and nature of activities the
population) are associated with the surface of the
planet. Indicator that has been discussed the spatial
distribution of both defense and military influence
and in this project, include: distribution pattern of
population, population density of the city, public
health, locations and structures, configuration and
arrangement of city, expansion of the city.
Another factor influencing the spatial distribution,
infrastructure and structures of determining which
issues are handled passive defense includes the
following items:
- The number, type and capacity of the refining
facilities and water storage tanks and
distribution systems,
- The number of hospitals and their capacity.
- Electricity, gas and central heating along the
lines of their distribution.
- Open barns, covered, fuel tanks, stockpiles
and warehouses and bunkers.
- Facilities and public transport vehicles,
parking, garages and repair shops.
- Potential military housing or accommodation
(hotels, motels, schools, mosques, barracks,
conference halls, recreational facilities and
other open spaces).
- Telecommunication centers, call centers and
distribution lines.
- Transport systems in urban and suburban.
VI. Civil defense:
The term "civil defense" or "civil defense" is
equal to Civil Defense. Civil defense "to protect
civilians under combat conditions" and therefore is
included as part of the National Defense that
following the measures necessary to achieve
adequate preparation against any possible attack
comes from a country or blackmailing. According to
this definition, civil defense must be guaranteed
"safety and survival of the civilian population (in
wartime)." The civil defense has systematically
pursued the following objectives:
1- Set of factors and passive measures of defense
for civilian personnel and facilities.
2- Sets of activities that can be reduced with the
occurrence and continuation of the accidents
that threaten life and property can be avoided
or in case, its effects.
3 - Reduce financial losses and injuries inflicted on
civilians by natural disasters or abnormal
events
4- Minimizing the effects of military attacks on
civilian populations.
5- To deal with the immediate emergency
conditions resulting from military attacks on
civilian populations.
6- Recovery and restoration of damaged facilities
and services to the military attacks on civilian
populations.

Urban passive defense
Actually, urban passive defense is, sets of the
action plans using the tool that by measure, condition
and position without the need for human resources
should be placed in terms of self-reliance. On one
hand, the defense of such actions can be increased in
times of crisis and on the other hand reduce the
consequences of the crisis and the possibility of
reconstructing the damaged areas of the city with the
lowest cost provides. In fact, passive defense plans
before invasive procedures are prepared and
implemented in peacetime. Given the opportunity to
provide such plans shall be prepared in peace time, it
is necessary for such provisions to be included in the
text and drawings. Besides passive defense measures
and considerations applying severe reduction in cost,
efficiency defense plans, objectives and projects that
will increase the invasion of the enemy. Battles
become more complex and the use of technology in
modern warfare, passive defense also has taken on
different faces. Nowadays people need to survive
they have three different services need to be quiet
and have resided within the city must have adequate
safety and comfort. Currently, the main purpose of
passive defense, public safety and reduce the
vulnerability of the infrastructure needed to gradually
create the conditions for security. These important
measures in most countries or performed or are
underway. If these measures as a planning and
design in the country's development (sustainable
development) is established, spontaneous
infrastructures Many of these occur in nature will be
safe. For improving the current infrastructure can to
be strong providing solutions such as re-engineering
them.
Passive defense
Actions, activities and ways to reduce risks,
losses, stabilization and safety and environmental
management is implemented and include natural
barriers and civil defense, the concept of passive
defense organizations. Another words, a series of
nonviolent actions that reduce the vulnerability of
human resources, buildings, facilities, equipment,
documentation and arteries in the face of hostility
and destructive enemy. Passive Defense priority,
secure and maintain the human resources taking into
account the gravity centers of influence is based on
the depth and surface damage. Center of gravity is
divided into the following three categories:
-Vital Centers
Centers that total or partial has caused
destruction of the crisis, and the risk of serious
damage and the political system, navigation,
command and control, manufacturing and economic
support, communications and roads, social or
national defense of the country's influence.
- Critical Centers
Centers that total or partial has caused
destruction of crises, damage and notable political
system, guidance, command and control,
manufacturing and economic support,
communications and roads, community or country is
immune to the influence of regional.
- Important centers
Centers that total or partial has caused
destruction of the crisis, limiting damage and
political systems, guidance, command and control,
manufacturing and economic support,
communications and roads, social or national defense
is the level of local influence.
Passive defense purposes
1- Reduction of systems able to identify, target
detection and precision targeting enemy
offensive weapons.
2- Enhance the capability of survival, continuity
of critical operations and service centers,
critical, critical military and civilian
occurrence under threat, crisis and war.
3- Reduce vulnerability and loss and damage to
facilities, equipment and manpower vital
centers, critical military and civilian
operations against enemy threats.
4- Deprivation of liberty and initiative from the
enemy.
5- Save arms and manpower costs.
6- To deceive and impose more costs to the
enemy and strengthen deterrence.
7- Increasing the threshold resistance force itself
against enemy invasion.
8- Maintaining morale and maintain national
unity and national capitals.
9- Maintaining the territorial integrity, national
security and independence.
Urban planning suitable with passive defense
With regard to the important component of
urban design urban planning and its impact on
reducing losses and damage facilities, equipment and
manpower, more research has tried that mentioned
components, such as the area, the city's urban fabric,
urban form, urban land use will be evaluated
commensurate with passive defense.
1 – Structure of Area
Structure of relationships is influenced by the
type and amount of natural or artificial environment
outside the periphery of the urban area. In fact, in the
network or hierarchical relationships of anatomical,
functional environment has been established, and any
investigation, defense, political, economic, social and
related urban area makes sense.

The most basic and most general plan which is posed
to defend the city against any threat, the same land
use plan; because it is the most important
components of the project, the relationship between
humans and their activities space which leads to the
stabilization and sustainable development in the
context of political, military and civil defense
measures, national and regional, to defend the
consolidated entity of space is used. If the security
man and his activities in regional initiatives,
including land preparation is not taken into account,
not only the stability and instability are the main
threat to physical and functional space, But not
abiding place of safety and security, defense and
finding new towns, caused a significant vulnerability
in cities, industries, dams, power plants and
infrastructure will be key. In general, the following
should be considered:
- The creation of any new settlements and cities
should be conducted to evaluate the type and level of
threat.
- It should be noted that the performance and
sensitivity of particular urban construction strategy is
constructed with a degree of strength and sensitivity.
- Maximum use of natural environmental effects
should be considered in the design and location.
In general, make-up approach to regulation across
regional and national defense argument causes the
city to be deployed in space in such a way that has
the maximum safety and security and defense
capabilities. In this process, many factors affect the
location of cities, the establishment of optimum
parameters in space with respect to defense and
defense is essential to provide maximum capacity at
least vulnerability. For example, the map of the
country Geostrategic geographical space that can be
divided into three domains:
1 - Marginal territory
2 - The realm of Middle-earth which is implemented
the elevated area or the Iranian plateau surrounding
structures.
3 - Central territory
Division above the one hand, the understanding of
enemy threats and political transformation - Strategic
Regional and on the other hand, with respect to the
physical structure and functional space such as kind
of ground, topography, soil and water, geometry,
boundary and boundary characteristics, territorial
depth, significance and value of aims, missions and
other parameters could possibly be the optimum
location.
2 - Structure of the City
The spatial distribution of elements and the main
functions of the constituent elements of the structure
are important for the vulnerability of the city to the
different events. Physical division of the city, such as
dormitory, neighborhood, region, quarter and area of
single-core or multi-core and other aspects of the city
are also due to counteract each disaster has its own
talent. For example, one of the city center and focus
of economic and human resources in cities with more
than one part of the city center, is the possibility of
vulnerability.
3-tissue of the city
Tissue of the city or same form or shape, size and
composition of the smallest components can be
effective in resistance against the invasion of the city
and other urban disasters. For example, we can say
that regular and irregular textures depending on the
type of threat, vulnerability are different. However,
the response of each type of urban fabric of the city's
ability to avoid accidents and residents were
sheltered in relief facilities, in field of how the
cleaning of even temporary housing, is directly
involved. Range of influence of these properties is of
great importance not only in design but also in
building and urban design in the development of
crisis management.
4-form of the city
As there is no single target for the design, Unified
theory about the evolution and function of the city is
not required that together to combine all important
aspects of the city. Current theories of each of the
specific points of view of others different looked
which had more progress some of these ideas than
others.
Such as Limiting situations, it is possible to have a
comprehensive theory of value is not instantaneous;
But at the same time that a coherent theory has
required extraordinary actions to limit the effective
and or even specify changes or necessary in its
decision making process. However, the usefulness of
the theory requires that the theory of a particular
type. Purposes should not be talking about the forces
and factors inevitable. The mean time to sustained
strengthening of cities against military threats; we
define the methods to achieve military offensive
tackle. In addition to assessing the current status of
the city, as well as assess their vulnerability. Open
forms are less vulnerable to military threats and the
ability to change them in order to deceive the enemy
is more; While compact forms also lack flexibility,
high vulnerability to military threats and they allow
rapid evacuation of the premises and there is no exit.
On the other hand, open spaces allow temporary
housing and provides further fundraising.

Optimal urban land use planning plays an important
role in reducing vulnerability to various events,
especially military threats. Respect to adjoining land
uses and lack of risk in urban areas is effective in
reducing these threats. Industrial uses or facilities,
the process of strategic industrial cities, a large
percentage of urban users knowingly or
unknowingly, is allocated which in the event of
accidents, the consequences of such an explosion,
fire or other incidents caused by adjacent land uses
and urban destruction and casualties are increasing
their range; In particular, the User relief centers,
hospitals, schools, universities and the neighborhood.
Therefore, in many cities, mainly to prevent threats
lowest frequency accuracy in locating users apply.
Components of Passive Defense and Civil
Structure
But given the importance of passive defense
components in urban design and its impact on
reducing losses and damage facilities, equipment and
human resources, in this section we will see that be
investigated some of these components, such as
privacy and secrecy to create structures safe and
strengthening, dispersion and determine the
appropriate structural elements of the shelter and the
shelter.
Concealment in the city
Concealment are said all measures to privacy or
secrecy that prevents exposure of critical facilities
and equipment in the direct vision of the city or
diagnostic facilities and equipment as well as
knowledge of certain activities impossible or difficult
for him. Including concealment methods, can be
named appropriate use of urban terrain and
construction of the facility where visible readily
detectable and ordinary and unimportant or
misrepresenting the tabulation of plants, trees.
Creating safe structure of the city, and
strengthening structures
Design and construction of vital installations and
sensitive way that generally the direct impact of
threats (bombs, missiles, etc.) that are resistant in
many cases not feasible and also not in principle and
interest cost. Because expenditure of formation and
establishment with such a feature is possible because
the cost of the related equipment is far ahead. In
most cases, better facilities and equipment that are
independent components that may threaten strikes
(bombers, missiles, etc.) resulting from equipment
failures and stop being part of the action, but does
not to a lots of only in cases of part of the damage
side of control damage we’ll, it be protected. But part
of the damage they cause failure of the entire system
and complete or partial interruption of operations
shall be constructed with sufficient strength. If vital
installations and sensitive enemy targets or threats
listed are probably not sufficient to resist the threat
of a direct hit or near the facility is unable to tolerate
the side effects, can specific plans engineering
enhanced Resistance and probably desirable.
Distribution of structural and physical elements
of the city
Distribution of structural elements of passive defense
is the one of important issues in reducing the damage
caused by destructive impulse delivered to the enemy
(threat) is very effective, and vice versa; If the image
of the enemy (threat) to identify the presence and
recognition in the pre-invasive stage and hit targeting
achieve critical focus of structural elements and the
cause of the invasion. Low volume and focused on
offensive operations, they can leave the most
damage. Creating a huge industrial complex,
extensive port facilities, power plants and other large
countries may be air or ground attack enemy (threat)
is not advisable. In the case of existing facilities is
required, further done and possible plans for a
gradual transition to different parts of the country are
preparing to be deployed with the principles of
distribution of new locations.
Determination of City shelter and safe place
Sanctuary: refers to places where the effects of
attacks (air - missile) or threat or open space than
conventional buildings is more secure. Better shelters
near their hangouts and the distance from the facility
and the strength is created to resist a direct hit threat
(bombs, missiles or blast wave). Shelters must be
equipped with ventilation, natural or artificial
ventilation system, emergency power system and
lighting, first-aid supplies, food and water; means to
remove debris and multiple entry and exit routes are
outside the sanctuary.
Turret: If the building has sufficient strength in the
face of threat (e.g., blast wave and fragmentation)
has not threaten, and equipment used in its facilities
pose be created hazardous and where its facilities are
targeted hear sirens should go to a safer place. Turret
can be covered by a concrete trench, trench brick
walls or soil that is common for people to go inside
and sit on your feet and hit the trenches has not
exposed contact of the direct threats.
The city features a secure and stable against
threats
For the purposes of civil defense and threat, safe and
sustainable city must have such qualities:
-Secure and stable and resistant to enemy threats
- New infrastructure secure and versatile city against
enemy invasion

Conclusions
Administrations in large cities are often
confronted with a multitude of key problems, like
high urban densities, transport, traffic congestion,
energy inadequacy, unplanned development and lack
of basic services, illegal construction both within the
city and in the periphery, informal real estate
markets, creation of slums, poor natural hazards
management in overpopulated areas, crime, water,
soil and air pollution leading to environmental
degradation, climate change and poor governance
arrangements.
The inevitability of further population growth is a
common issue. Some cities reported that their
administrations have little control over population
growth; it was a regional or national issue and must
be addressed at that level. However, monitoring
population change effectively and being able to
respond through planning and infrastructure
development will be major challenges.
This incredibly rapid growth of megacities causes
severe ecological, economical and social problems. It
is increasingly difficult to manage this growth in a
sustainable way. How can this be driven by growth
in a sustainable manner? The challenge for these
cities is to Mega city management expertise as well
as political and intelligent information to update
issues across the city to support the decisions taken
that encourages sustainable development is provided.
In the current situation if it does not adopt measures
for the cities, First of enemy rocket attacks, power
and gas, we followed the water crisis there is
impaired, resulting in severe shortages of food,
people are facing. Telecommunications and radio
and television is disconnected. Some bridges and
roads will hit the roads and therefore traffic is
exacerbated. The starting point for many activities in
the economic, social and political activities of the
interrupted, officials and even is transformed the
defenders of the city. So the most important task for
all institutions, especially city managers, planning
and action to reduce vulnerability and build
resilience relative safety and critical infrastructure of
the city. Crisis management can be both old and new
insights that are reviewed. The old vision, crisis
management, related operations and more attention
to planning was not, in fact, the species was thought
that only the crisis management operations and in
this view, search and rescue teams, EMS, Crescent
and ... and the crisis management operations
conducted by them equally. But now, sex work and
attitude has changed. The new approach, developed
doctrine of public policy, land use planning expertise
to develop appropriate management strategies
important projects if not properly structured, there is
no policy with the best facilities, crisis management
will be unsuccessful and aborted. Disaster
management cycle of prevention and risk reduction
begins preparedness, response and recovery stages of
disaster management cycle. Measures taken in the
different stages is different, we are looking to
develop an accident prevention and risk reduction
involves doing things to try to stop after an accident,
the result of fewer side effects, which vary with the
prevention.
The spatial structure of a city is very complex. It is
the physical outcome of the subtle interactions over
centuries between land markets, and topography,
infrastructure, regulations, and taxation. The
complexity of urban spatial structures has often
discouraged attempts to analyze them and ad fortiori
to try to relate urban policy to city shape.
The spatial structure of a city has an important
impact on economic efficiency and on the quality of
the urban environment. However, the evolution of
urban form, shaped by the complex interaction
between market forces, public investment and
regulations, is not often monitored. Consequently,
the significant inefficiencies due to a poor spatial
structure are often ignored until it is too late to do
anything about it. Too often urban planners have
relied on Master Plans prepared typically every ten
years to insure that cities would develop according to
municipal objectives. A city, however, is not similar
to a very large building and is never build according
to blue prints. A city development is constantly
influenced by external economic forces. Cities’
survival depends on finding rapidly imaginative
solutions to new emerging problems which could not
have been anticipated by the author of master plans.
These projects continue can be moved be in certain

proper placement and reasonable and appropriate and

adequate and reasonable strategies for locating
distribution of elements and according to the
principles of passive defense. It is hoped that this
project is a part of incompatibilities and vulnerability
factors that may threaten the region and relieve the
city having a beautiful and safe choice thinking
about.
Guidelines:
- Sanitation and immunization status quo of public
buildings and public housing.
- Save anticipated necessities (such as fuel, water,
food, etc) within the city limits.
- Design and create safe havens for Surface and
underground as a subway in times of crisis.
- Development of photovoltaic communities in
conflict situations.
- Creating Security Privacy critical facilities located
in the town.
- Multi-purpose public spaces with the ability to
exploit the crisis.
- Create and organize evacuation routes with features
and quick outreach people.
- Having barriers around the city before the ground
offensive.
- Institutional master plan for urban management in
conflict situations.
