Nile River: A Fitness Trail Promoting Physical Activity In Cairo CityIJERDJOURNAL
ABSTRACT: Nowadays, governments are challenged by dramatic increases in the frequency of chronic diseases, obesity and sedentary lifestyles caused majorly by physical inactivity.In order to lessen such complications, urban designers and architects strive to create open spaces and streets that encourage walking, bicycling, and other forms of active recreation.This paper aims at evaluating “Ahl Misr” Promenade created at the Nile River banks, Cairo city, Egypt, in terms of the vision guiding the design, design features, environmental aspects, promenade management, and funding channels. The study concentrates on exploring the extent to which the trail succeeded in offering venues for cycling, walking, running and stretching, as to participate in enhancing the public health in a city suffering from scarcity of open spaces. Observation of the existing activities and a physical survey are adopted. The results show that the tail is a positive stage towards the goal; nevertheless, the local authority predominating decisions and management policies are crippling the trail from fulfilling its potentials.

A Novel Switch Mechanism for Load Balancing in Public CloudIJMER
In cloud computing environment, one of the core design principles is dynamic scalability,
which guarantees cloud storage service to handle the growing amounts of application data in a flexible
manner or to be readily enlarged. By integrating several private and public cloud services, the hybrid
clouds can effectively provide dynamic scalability of service and data migration. A load balancing is a
method of dividing computing loads among numerous hardware resources. Due to unpredictable job
arrival pattern and the capacities of the nodes in cloud differ for the load balancing problem. In this load
control is very crucial to improve system performance and maintenance. This paper presents a switch
mechanism for load balancing in cloud computing. The load balancing model given in this work is aimed
at the public cloud which has numerous nodes with distributed computing resources in many different
geographical areas. Thus, this model divides the public cloud environment into several cloud partitions.
When the cloud environment is very large and complex, these divisions simplify the load balancing. The
cloud environment has a main controller that chooses the suitable partitions for arriving jobs while the
balancer for each cloud partition chooses the best load balancing strategy

Cloud computing is an attracting technology in the field of computer science. In
Gartner’s report, it says that the cloud will bring changes to the IT industry. The cloud is changing
our life by providing users with new types of services. Users get service from a cloud without paying
attention to the details. NIST gave a definition of cloud computing as a model for enabling
ubiquitous, convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing
resources (e.g., networks, servers, storage, applications, and services) that can be rapidly
provisioned and released with minimal management effort or service provider interaction. More
and more people pay attention to cloud computing. Cloud computing is efficient and scalable but
maintaining the stability of processing so many jobs in the cloud computing environment is a very
complex problem with load balancing receiving much attention for researchers. Since the job
arrival pattern is not predictable and the capacities of each node in the cloud differ, for load
balancing problem, workload control is crucial to improve system performance and maintain
stability. Load balancing schemes depending on whether the system dynamics are important can be
either static or dynamic. Static schemes do not use the system information and are less complex
while dynamic schemes will bring additional costs for the system but can change as the system
status changes. A dynamic scheme is used here for its flexibility. The model has a main controller
and balancers to gather and analyze the information. Thus, the dynamic control has little influence
on the other working nodes. The system status then provides a basis for choosing the right load
balancing strategy. The load balancing model given in this research article is aimed at the public
cloud which has numerous nodes with distributed computing resources in many different
geographic locations. Thus, this model divides the public cloud into several cloud partitions. When

On Malaysian streets nowadays, main priority is given to vehicular elements, which seems to comprise the functional qualities of urban public space for human interaction. To perk up such streets, “pedestrianisation” results in making a city centre pedestrian- friendly, and expedites the preservation of historical districts. Problem statement: Existence of people engaging in a variety of sustained and social activities can makes a street lively. Approach: As liveliness involves levels of activities, uses, interactions and their representation, current research appraises street liveliness through behavioral observation of sustained pedestrians’ activities in Meldrum Walk. Result: The data on traffic modes, walking and sustained pedestrians of diverse age groups and genders, different types of activities, postures, over different times of day and night analyzed. Conclusion: Proposing a wider range of attractions and opportunities for activities besides walking, working and shopping for users of different age groups and capability - which would qualify the environment and lead to elaborate the liveliness of such streets, is recommended.

Conclusions are written. And recommendations are drawn.
Cohesive City: Built Environment and Active TransportIJLT EMAS
Cotemporary development has transformed the city
structure and urban fabric. Several studies in public health
domain contemplate premeditated active transport as one of the
major decisive factor in enhancing urban dwellers’ quality of
life. Active transport and human powered transportation
includes walking, cycling and variants such as cycle rickshaws,
skateboards, push scooters, hand carts, etc. These modes provide
both transportation and recreation and are especially important
for short trips that form the largest share of trips in urban areas.
Since the built environment is the setting in which the use of
active transport manifests, if a sufficient condition is not
provided, it may deprive the individuals of any opportunity for
the activity to occur at all. This is why it is important to study the
built environment as a factor of walkability and develop
knowledge about creating urban environments that are
conducive for active transport. This paper discusses active
transport factors at various levels. Further, the paper dwells on
investigating the attributes of built environment at the street and
building level.

negative ramifications in last couple of decades. Urban sprawl is defined as dispersed and discontinuous
suburban land development associated with low population densities and high auto dependence. This
phenomenon is adversely affecting sustainability of the city because of its negative environmental, social and
economic impacts. It saps local resources, destroys open space and farmland, and increases the energy
consumption of mobility by promoting long travel distances. Another problem is high levels of traffic
congestion and harmful emissions causing environmental pollution. There is a plethora of research that sought
to address the issue of urban sustainability and combat sprawl; little has been done on developing analytical
tools that could be used to assess the future of urban sustainability for Indian cities and for Pune in particular.
This paper explores that how particular land use development patterns or the expansion of the current urban
transportation infrastructure are likely to impact urban sustainability.

DEFINING LOCAL CONCEPT OF URBAN RAIL STATION AREA DEVELOPMENT THROUGH BEST PR...civej
Basically, Rail-transit Oriented Development (ROD) is an integrated high density mixed use rail station
transit area development for improving accessibility to public transport, enhancing pedestrian friendly
environment as well as increasing urban mobility. Many developed countries have applied the concept of
ROD for generating the compact development of rail station area.
Best practices approach is a selective observation towards several cases with various contexts in order to
get generalization of related theories or concept on practices. In this approach, the study is oriented to
some reasons that make cases being successful. There are two basic components of best practices
approach, i.e. source site and target site. This research elaborated some cases in Japan rail station area
development as source sites for best practices. The finding from elaboration of source sites was brought as
a tool for analyzing the target sites, Jabodetabek rail station area.
The result shows different physical and cultural context between Japan and Indonesia cause the developed
countries concept of ROD cannot be fully applied as it is. It needs some adaptation to be applied in
Indonesia.
Configurational Economies: The Value of Accessibility in Urban Development drboon
This research is an effort to understand the theoretical foundations of how the configuration of space is interrelated with the economic properties that sustain the built fabric. The argument is based on unfolding accessibility in two perspectives: As a spatial parameter that understands urban form as a system of relational patterns of connections that organises human activity. And as an economic parameter that can be valued under specific price mechanisms of urban properties. The paper shows a first preliminary study of testing street prices with spatial accessibility measures. The method was to use current house prices with Space Syntax techniques, a spatial analysis tool that outputs measures of connectivity and accessibility represented in a street network. Overall, economy contributes on the shape of our cities that prevail in the spatial relations of the built form, resulting in new configurational economies.

ABSTRACT D:\My Journal\papers\Vol 4 ISSUE 1\1 senem sadri Turkey\check for updates2020ijcua.tif
Transportation has always been the backbone of development. Transit-oriented development (TOD) has been theorized, piloted and expanded increasingly in the past few decades. In this regard, this paper investigates the relationship between urban development, the transportation process, and the required implementation guidelines within fast-urbanizing cities, such as Cairo. After reviewing different related sustainable development theories, the study investigates pioneering case studies that have applied TOD and provided adequate implementation frameworks. The authors then extract and compare a set of required policies. The current Egyptian development paradigm is then discussed in relation to these enabling policies, focusing on Greater Cairo Region, Egypt. The authors debate previous development plans, progress, and newly proposed ones, focusing on the transportation process as the means for development. The study concludes with a set of required guidelines to ensure the integration of transportation with land-use planning, thus ensuring a more prosperous and inclusive urban development.

ABSTRACT
Many studies have been conducted over the last 20 years to determine and measure factors that affect the walkability of city streets. Walkability is an essential factor in deciding whether a city is green or sustainable. This paper creates a comprehensive walkability index by analysing built environmental indicators that affect walkability. This research was conducted on mixed land use streets in Cairo, Egypt, combining the results from an online survey and a walkability assessment model developed by multi-criteria decision analysis techniques. The results were based on a three-pillar approach starting with the theoretical background to frame the walkability indicator, numerical assessment over the Egyptian cases using a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) technique and a qualitative user perception survey. Our results confirm that determining to what extent Cairo’s streets are walkable is crucial to enhancing pedestrians’ perceptions of the walking environment. Furthermore, the results illustrated the essential factors within the built environment indicators that influence pedestrian walking behaviour.

A Study on Translucent Concrete Product and Its Properties by Using Optical F...IJMER
- Translucent concrete is a concrete based material with light-transferring properties,
obtained due to embedded light optical elements like Optical fibers used in concrete. Light is conducted
through the concrete from one end to the other. This results into a certain light pattern on the other
surface, depending on the fiber structure. Optical fibers transmit light so effectively that there is
virtually no loss of light conducted through the fibers. This paper deals with the modeling of such
translucent or transparent concrete blocks and panel and their usage and also the advantages it brings
in the field. The main purpose is to use sunlight as a light source to reduce the power consumption of
illumination and to use the optical fiber to sense the stress of structures and also use this concrete as an
architectural purpose of the building

Study & Testing Of Bio-Composite Material Based On Munja FibreIJMER
The incorporation of natural fibres such as munja fiber composites has gained
increasing applications both in many areas of Engineering and Technology. The aim of this study is to
evaluate mechanical properties such as flexural and tensile properties of reinforced epoxy composites.
This is mainly due to their applicable benefits as they are light weight and offer low cost compared to
synthetic fibre composites. Munja fibres recently have been a substitute material in many weight-critical
applications in areas such as aerospace, automotive and other high demanding industrial sectors. In
this study, natural munja fibre composites and munja/fibreglass hybrid composites were fabricated by a
combination of hand lay-up and cold-press methods. A new variety in munja fibre is the present work

Fabrication & Characterization of Bio Composite Materials Based On Sunnhemp F...IJMER
The present day technology demands eco-friendly developments. In this era the
composite material are playing a vital roal in different field of Engineering .The composite materials
are using as a principle materials. Nowaday the composite materials are utilizing as a important
component of engineering field .Where as the importance of the applications of composites is well
known, but thrust on the use of natural fibres in it for reinforcement has been given priority for some
times. But changing from synthetic fibres to natural fibres provides only half green-composites. A
partial green composite will be achieved if the matrix component is also eco-friendly. Keeping this in
view, a detailed literature surveyed has been carried out through various issues of the Journals

been also added for stability and drying of the bio-composites. Various graphs and bar-charts are
super-imposed on each other for comparison among themselves and Graphs is plotted on MAT LAB
and ORIGIN 6.0 software. To determining tensile strengths, Various properties for different biocomposites
have been compared among themselves. Comparison of the behaviour of bio-composites of
this work has been also compare with other works. The bio-composites developed in this work are
likely to get applications in fall ceilings, partitions, bio-degradable packagings, automotive interiors,
sports things (e.g. rackets, nets, etc.), toys etc.
Geochemistry and Genesis of Kammatturu Iron Ores of Devagiri Formation, Sandu...IJMER
The Greenstone belts of Karnataka are enriched in BIFs in Dharwar craton, where Iron
formations are confined to the basin shelf, clearly separated from the deeper-water iron formation that
accumulated at the basin margin and flanking the marine basin. Geochemical data procured in terms of
major, trace and REE are plotted in various diagrams to interpret the genesis of BIFs. Al2O3, Fe2O3 (T),
TiO2, CaO, and SiO2 abundances and ratios show a wide variation. Ni, Co, Zr, Sc, V, Rb, Sr, U, Th,
ΣREE, La, Ce and Eu anomalies and their binary relationships indicate that wherever the terrigenous
component has increased, the concentration of elements of felsic such as Zr and Hf has gone up. Elevated
concentrations of Ni, Co and Sc are contributed by chlorite and other components characteristic of basic
volcanic debris. The data suggest that these formations were generated by chemical and clastic
sedimentary processes on a shallow shelf. During transgression, chemical precipitation took place at the
sediment-water interface, whereas at the time of regression. Iron ore formed with sedimentary structures
and textures in Kammatturu area, in a setting where the water column was oxygenated.

specimen configurations under different heat treated conditions and the corresponding results were
compared with the analysis outcome
Non linear analysis of Robot Gun Support Structure using Equivalent Dynamic A...IJMER
Robot guns are being increasingly employed in automotive manufacturing to replace
risky jobs and also to increase productivity. Using a single robot for a single operation proves to be
expensive. Hence for cost optimization, multiple guns are mounted on a single robot and multiple
operations are performed. Robot Gun structure is an efficient way in which multiple welds can be done
simultaneously. However mounting several weld guns on a single structure induces a variety of
dynamic loads, especially during movement of the robot arm as it maneuvers to reach the weld
locations. The primary idea employed in this paper, is to model those dynamic loads as equivalent G
force loads in FEA. This approach will be on the conservative side, and will be saving time and
subsequently cost efficient. The approach of the paper is towards creating a standard operating
procedure when it comes to analysis of such structures, with emphasis on deploying various technical
aspects of FEA such as Non Linear Geometry, Multipoint Constraint Contact Algorithm, Multizone
meshing .

Intrusion Detection and Forensics based on decision tree and Association rule...IJMER
This paper present an approach based on the combination of, two techniques using
decision tree and Association rule mining for Probe attack detection. This approach proves to be
better than the traditional approach of generating rules for fuzzy expert system by clustering methods.
Association rule mining for selecting the best attributes together and decision tree for identifying the
best parameters together to create the rules for fuzzy expert system. After that rules for fuzzy expert
system are generated using association rule mining and decision trees. Decision trees is generated for
dataset and to find the basic parameters for creating the membership functions of fuzzy inference
system. Membership functions are generated for the probe attack. Based on these rules we have
created the fuzzy inference system that is used as an input to neuro-fuzzy system. Fuzzy inference
system is loaded to neuro-fuzzy toolbox as an input and the final ANFIS structure is generated for
outcome of neuro-fuzzy approach. The experiments and evaluations of the proposed method were
done with NSL-KDD intrusion detection dataset. As the experimental results, the proposed approach
based on the combination of, two techniques using decision tree and Association rule mining
efficiently detected probe attacks. Experimental results shows better results for detecting intrusions as
compared to others existing methods
Natural Language Ambiguity and its Effect on Machine LearningIJMER
"Natural language processing" here refers to the use and ability of systems to process
sentences in a natural language such as English, rather than in a specialized artificial computer
language such as C++. The systems of real interest here are digital computers of the type we think of as
personal computers and mainframes. Of course humans can process natural languages, but for us the
question is whether digital computers can or ever will process natural languages. We have tried to
explore in depth and break down the types of ambiguities persistent throughout the natural languages
and provide an answer to the question “How it affects the machine translation process and thereby
machine learning as whole?” .
Today in era of software industry there is no perfect software framework available for
analysis and software development. Currently there are enormous number of software development
process exists which can be implemented to stabilize the process of developing a software system. But no
perfect system is recognized till yet which can help software developers for opting of best software
development process. This paper present the framework of skillful system combined with Likert scale. With
the help of Likert scale we define a rule based model and delegate some mass score to every process and
develop one tool name as MuxSet which will help the software developers to select an appropriate
development process that may enhance the probability of system success.
Material Parameter and Effect of Thermal Load on Functionally Graded CylindersIJMER
The present study investigates the creep in a thick-walled composite cylinders made
up of aluminum/aluminum alloy matrix and reinforced with silicon carbide particles. The distribution
of SiCp is assumed to be either uniform or decreasing linearly from the inner to the outer radius of
the cylinder. The creep behavior of the cylinder has been described by threshold stress based creep
law with a stress exponent of 5. The composite cylinders are subjected to internal pressure which is
applied gradually and steady state condition of stress is assumed. The creep parameters required to
be used in creep law, are extracted by conducting regression analysis on the available experimental
results. The mathematical models have been developed to describe steady state creep in the composite
cylinder by using von-Mises criterion. Regression analysis is used to obtain the creep parameters
required in the study. The basic equilibrium equation of the cylinder and other constitutive equations
have been solved to obtain creep stresses in the cylinder. The effect of varying particle size, particle
content and temperature on the stresses in the composite cylinder has been analyzed. The study
revealed that the stress distributions in the cylinder do not vary significantly for various combinations
of particle size, particle content and operating temperature except for slight variation observed for
varying particle content. Functionally Graded Materials (FGMs) emerged and led to the development
of superior heat resistant materials.

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!

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. It should help the employees to find the rack number in which the product is placed.It is also Faster and more efficient way.
Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

I. Introduction
One of the major goals of urban design is to reduce automobile dependency, in order to address issues of viability and sustainability (Newman, &Kenworthy, 2006). For many years, urban designers have focused on planning the cities based on the existence of automobile, as a result, streets are often over scaled and inhospitable to pedestrians (Southworth and Ben- Joseph, 2004).This type of urban development has been a great threat to the historical identity of old urban fabrics and as a result the character and function of those places have changed and in many cases diminished (Habibi, 1999). Urban design is a technique and knowledge seeking to organize and improve urban qualities and increase the quality of citizenship life. Based on the perspectives and objectives of urban design, the dominant intention in all urbanism activities is to reach high humanistic and social dimensions. In fact, what give meaning to a city are the social aspects raised in recent urban activities, in addition to the physical and visual body of it. In recent researches conducted in the field of urban design, social qualities in conjunction visual, functional and spatial qualities are emphasized. In this study, based on extensive studies regarding urban qualities, social qualities are focused on as the parameter influenced by social relationships which is lost in most urban designs. Urban qualities as a tool for urban planners to promote and organize the environment have the ability to provide substrates for shaping and promoting the social spaces. This study examines the walkability of KALANTARI highway which is one of the most important designed spaces. Mentioned area is main structure in urban fabric. This area was located in Mashhad as second cities after Tehran in Iran.
II. Literature Of Walkability
The definition of walkability has been varied according to various disciplines. Southworth (2008) defines a walkable environment from the perspective of the urban design. He believes that the emphasis on health in the discourse of walkability deviates the attention from other types of walkable environments and
Abstract: Urban design is a technique and knowledge seeking to organize and improve urban qualities and increase the quality of citizenship life. Based on the perspectives and objectives of urban design, the dominant intention in all urbanism activities is to reach high humanistic and social dimensions. In fact, what give meaning to a city are the social aspects raised in recent urban activities, in addition to the physical and visual body of it. Over the past decade the quality of the walking environment has become a significant factor in transportation planning and design in developed countries. It is argued that the pedestrians’ environment has been ignored in favors of automobile. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of walkability on property values and investment returns. Research method is descriptive. The method of collected data is field. Also, were used questionnaire tools in order to collecting data. On the other hand, was referred to municipality 9 region due to, studied area was located in this urban region. In continue, was used SWOT technique in order to analyzing questionnaire. At finally, proposed strategies in order to improving urban space qualify.

meanings of walkability. He has suggested five other types of walkable environments beside walkable as being associated with encouraging physical activity type of environment:
Close: A walkable environment that provides a short distance to a destination, particularly where driving is inconvenient or people are without cars. This is the perspective rooted in transportation planning. This definition has a great deal to do with an individual’s cost-benefits calculation.
Barrier-free: A walkable environment that is crossable, without major barriers. Walkability can be refined for the ease of children, elderly and disabled people.
Safe: A walkable environment is safe in terms of perceived crime or perceived traffic.
Full of pedestrian infrastructure and destinations: A walkable environment visibly displays full pedestrian infrastructure such aside walks or separated trails, marked pedestrian crossings, street furniture and street plantings.
Upscale, leafy or cosmopolitan: A walkable place is somewhere that the pedestrian environment is pleasant for upper middle-class professionals, who have other choices for getting around.
Another definition offered by Southworth (2008) which seems more comprehensive and appropriate to be used in the current study is the extent to which the built environment supports and encourages walking by providing for pedestrian comfort and safety, connecting people with varied destinations within a reasonable amount of time and effort, and offering visual interest in journeys throughout the network. Walkability can be evaluated at various scales, at site scale, at a street or neighborhoods level and at the community level (Southworth, 2005). The factors that affect the walkability of urban area are varied and they are influenced by many variables including the aesthetics, attractiveness and pleasurability of the environment. This relates to how much the environment gives joy to the users aesthetically, attracts pedestrians to use the space, and pleases them with opportunities offered (Owen et al, 2004; Shay et al, 2004). Previous literature suggests how to evaluate an environment based on its ability to accommodate these qualities. Pleasant atmosphere, attractive architecture and streetscape on well-lit public areas, outdoor seating in residential and commercial areas was mentioned by Shay et al. (2003) and Shriver (1997) as variables affecting walkability. Others have also noted the presence of historical buildings, well-maintaining, and keeping the environment clear of garbage, litter, broken glass or graffiti (Southworth, 2008; Hoehner et al, 2004). A variety of measures have been used to represent the built environment in studies of land use and travel behavior. In a study by Berrigan and Troiano (2002), a simple measure of neighborhood age is used as a proxy of walkability. Crane (1996) used three variables to describe the local environment: population density, land use mix and street pattern. And, a more comprehensive array was used by Craig et al. (2002), where 18 environmental measures described characteristics of destinations, aesthetics, and traffic. However, the research has thus far been unable to establish a definitive characterization of the elements that comprise a walkable environment or are influential in affecting rates of pedestrian activity (Crane, 2000; Vernez-Moudon and Lee, 2003). The lack of micro scale environmental data has been a limitation but the collection of detailed information about non-motorized activity has been overlooked in many transportation studies, further hampering these efforts. Also, many studies concerned with walking behavior evaluate the environmental attributes by their degree of accommodation for pedestrians and the correlations with levels of walking (Aultman-Hall et al., 1997; Greenwald and Boarnet, 2001). Considering this issue and making efforts to improve the quality of walkable environment in neighborhoods as it is shown in the results of the present study would lead to increase in the social capital among a society.
III. Defining Urban Vitality
Vitality as a term has become widely used in the field of city planning and urbanism in the last decades. In recent years it has gained a particular interest and considerations. But before we go on exploring pathways to defining and measuring Urban Vitality it is necessary to mediate its original meanings and identify some generic characteristics and multi component.
In the urban field, the discussions on Urban Vitality started in 1960s picking up speed towards the 1980s on the background of scientific ideas from natural and social sciences. The classic definition of the word is widely used in the scientific world when referring to a property of a system that makes it able to survive, grow and develop. It is important to note that this property refers to some crucial aspects of the phenomenology of complexity and is a result of some basic characteristics and processes inherent to it. Cities are extraordinarily complex organisms, but their complexity derives from a simple formula. So to ensure their future as living organisms we have understand some of the generic drivers behind their complex phenomenology. For that we need to know the determining factors of the phenomena associated with it and then to recognize them within the functioning of our urban environments. The mathematician, John Casti (1986, 1994) identifies some

characteristics of complex systems which he considers typical of human systems and contemporary life. First of all, complex systems express a condition of numerous elements with it that are characterized by the “presence of many interactions of different kinds, and numerous feedbacks and feed forward cycles which allow the system to restructure or ... modify the pattern of interactions between the variables”(John Casti, 1994). Secondly, he derives two fundamental aspects of complex phenomenology: synergy and self-organization. In other words, complex systems possess the capacity to respond to stimuli from the external environment, redefinitions far from equilibrium. In this connection there are three important characteristics crucial to the vitality of such a system:
Now, as we attempt to take a step forward, we shell try to see in what way these characteristics of complexity are manifested in urban systems. We know that the very large number and the variety of integration and interrelation processes are some of the fundamental factors of complexity in urban systems. What is more these relations extend across several layers – functional (physical), economic social, political, etc. Each of these layers includes smaller or larger number of elements creating among each other numerous, different and changing interactions. It implies that the well-being of the urban form, the efficiency of its performance and therefore its vitality are dependent of how smooth the interactive flow between these elements is (Figure 10). This also means that specific conditions, Layouts and circumstances can facilitate or hamper the interactions between the elements. One of such conditions is the ability or disability for self-management or self-organization of urban territories. If we think of urban system as a result of thelocational choices of a large number of individuals, we are presented with the democratic type of system where the wide dispersion of authority and decision making make these systems more stable, more elastic and have a greater capacity to resist unexpected environmental fluctuations (John Casti, 1994). Many critics of modernist city (Jacobs, 1961, Salingaros, 2005) have advocated the quality of urban areas to maintain its own order and referred to the process of self-organization as a “bottom-up” process involving a large number of people who in some way demonstrate respect for a set of rules, producing nevertheless non-predetermined outcome characterized by a high degree of diversity. The Diversity that results is then overlaid with historical processes (time-factor) and added a critical mass becomes a real asset of cities that makes them viable and strong .
IV. Problem Statement
In the United States, great emphasis has been placed on planning for smart growth, bicycle, and pedestrian in the 90’s, while in Northern Europe, the decline of modernist planning and automobile dependent transportation system occurred somewhat earlier with the energy crises of the 70’s.Unfortunately in many Asian countries despite having great history in architecture and urban planning, the modernist planning era and automobile dependency continue to flourish and even grow very fast in recent years(Hutabarat-Lo, 2009). Iran as a developing country is also struggling with the impacts of auto dependence urban design. Many historical cities of Iran have been affected by this trend. According to the local officials of the Mashhad city, the city suffers from traffic and air pollution and while this is a growing trend in the city, the issue has not been seriously addressed. One of the ICOMOS (International Council on Monuments and Sites) members stated that cultural-historical fabric of Mashhad is in danger because of the development of the Mashhad city.

Sidewalk in Mashhad does not have meaning. In the mind of citizens of this city, sidewalk is a messy path where you will encounter many problems walking there, from bike passing, bumping into other people, shops which locate their stuffs in the walkways and occupy the space, and much of these problems also occur KALANTARI highway. In order to improving urban qualify, was studied main urban axis. There are some problems in this area. They are:
1- There is air and sound pollution
2- There isn’t vitality
3- There isn’t identify
Thus, the research hypotheses are:
- It seems, there isn’t vitality in this sidewalk.
- It seems, mentioned location isn’t safe position (light).
- It seems, citizen don’t satisfaction from position.
V. Methodology
Research method is descriptive. The method of collected data is field. Also, were used questionnaire tools in order to collecting data. On the other hand, was referred to municipality 9 region due to, studied area was located in this urban region. In continue, was used SWOT technique in order to analyzing questionnaire. At finally, proposed strategies in order to improving urban space qualify.
VI. Studied Area
Mashhad has been located between Hezar Masjed & Binaloud Mountains. The city is located at 36.20º North latitude and 59.35º East longitude, in the valley of the Kashaf River near Turkmenistan, between the two mountain ranges of Binalood and Hezar-masjed. Mashhad divided 7 parts in planning based on environmental, physical, economical, social indicators. This area consists of natural and physical opportunities. Thus, middle area is one of the main economical and physical areas in Mashhad. This area has some factors (ebrahimpour, 2014:230). Mashhad has 12 municipality regions. Studied area was located in 9 municipal regions.

Graph 4: At finally was used SWOT technique in order to analyzing data.
SWOT analysis (alternatively SWOT matrix) is a structured planning method used to evaluate the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats involved in a project or in a business venture. A SWOT analysis can be carried out for a product, place, industry or person. It involves specifying the objective of the business venture or project and identifying the internal and external factors that are favorable and unfavorable to achieve that objective. Some authors credit SWOT to Albert Humphrey, who led a convention at the Stanford Research Institute (now SRI International) in the 1960s and 1970s using data from Fortune 500 companies. However, Humphrey himself does not claim the creation of SWOT, and the origins remain obscure. The degree to which the internal environment of the firm matches with the external environment is expressed by the concept of strategic fit.
Strengths: characteristics of the business or project that give it an advantage over others.
Weaknesses: characteristics that place the business or project at a disadvantage relative to others
Opportunities: elements that the project could exploit to its advantage
Threats: elements in the environment that could cause trouble for the business or project
Identification of SWOTs is important because they can inform later steps in planning to achieve the objective. First, the decision makers should consider whether the objective is attainable, given the SWOTs. If the objective is not attainable a different objective must be selected and the process repeated. Users of SWOT analysis need to ask and answer questions that generate meaningful information for each category (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) to make the analysis useful and find their competitive advantage.

VIII. Conclusion
Sustainable transportation is a prerequisite for urban sustainable development .According to international organizations, the promotion of urban life quality could be obtained through a transportation that is compatible with economy, society, and environment aspects. Creating walkable neighborhoods is one of the strategies to achieve urban sustainability .This component not only accounts for a sustainable development pattern, but also pays attention to other development patterns such as public transportation-based development patterns as well as smart growth. In studying was studied side walk of KALANTARI highway condition. There is three hypotheses. They are:
- It seems, there isn’t vitality in this sidewalk.
- It seems, mentioned location isn’t safe position (light).
- It seems, citizen don’t satisfaction from position.
According to analyzed data, there isn’t vitality in this location. Also, citizen doesn't satisfy condition. So studied area need planning such as walkability in order to improving qualify. REFERENCES
