Estimate heating degree-days (HDD) and cooling degree-days (CDD) from annual and seasonal simulated temperature data are required. To this end, data were received from EH5OM, the website of the Abdus Salam International Theoretical Physics Center (Italy). These data were run from 2015 to 2050 under A1 B scenario by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. For downscaling purposes, the fourth version of RegCM4 was used Heating and cooling degree-day with 18.3°C and 23.9°C temperature thresholds were calculated and then sum of annual and seasonal means of degree- day were obtained. The Results show that, at the northwestern corner of the Golestan province parts, the maximum temperature is observed; while in the southern parts of the Gilan and Mazandaran province minimum is recorded. Also a strong inverse relationship between temperature and elevation is observed. The lowest Annual energy consumption for Cooling would take place in the south Gilan province and so west and south Mazandaran province; while the highest energy consumption would be observed in the regions have low elevation, such as the northeastern Golestan province. The CDD values are negatively related to elevation and positively related to longitude and latitude.https://www.ijumes.com/article_32557_2bb4997e9e7e9f45820e6df11e801f88.pdfIranian Sustainable Building Scientific AssociationInternational Journal of Urban Management and Energy Sustainability2538-16281420201101Role of Urban Management in Cultural Events Economy of Academic Cities to Tourism Industry Development12323255810.22034/ijumes.2017.18.12.028ENA.Pour AhmadDepartment of Human Sciences, Faculty of Geography, University of Tehran, Tehran, IranM.SarrafDepartment of Urban Planning, Faculty of Geography and Urban Planning, International Campus of University of Tehran, Kish, IranN.HagholyaghinDepartment of Architecture and Urban Planning, Faculty of Urban Planning, University of Islamic Art, Tabriz, IranJournal Article20200420Tourism is today considered one of the biggest and most diverse industries in the cosmos, and its rapid development has contributed to many social, economic and environmental varieties. For this cause, it has become an important subject of study among scholars. Cultural events, including those occurring in one address, such as university, can be regarded as an important source for attracting tourists and developing the land. Increasing the level of science and cognition can help ameliorate the lives of the masses of the community and develop economic and societal growth. The aim of this study was to look into the role of cultural events in the political economy of academic cities to develop the tourism in Kish Island. The research method is descriptive-analytic. Using library studies and area studies (interviews and questionnaires), the outcomes have been analyzed using SPSS software and single-sample chi-square test. Outcomes indicate that cultural events and the universities are influential in the economy of Kish. Besides, these issues have a significant impact on the growth of tourism in the area.https://www.ijumes.com/article_32558_5288cea98051f543db9fed5c03f6e29c.pdfIranian Sustainable Building Scientific AssociationInternational Journal of Urban Management and Energy Sustainability2538-16281420201101Evaluation of the Level of Urban Social Resilience to Earthquakes Using a Good Urban Governance Approach33453255910.22034/ijumes.2017.18.12.029ENE.BehzadpoorDepartment of Architecture, Faculty of Art and Urban Planning, Islamic Azad University, Tehran-North Branch, Tehran, IranA.TabaeianDepartment of Architecture, Faculty of Architecture and Urban Planning, Islamic Azad University, Qazvin Branch, Qazvin, IranM.KhatibiDepartment of Architecture, Faculty of Architecture and Urban Planning, Islamic Azad University, Qazvin Branch, Qazvin, IranJournal Article20200502Resilience is one of the most important factors to achieve sustainable management and good urban governance and it is a way towards the improvement of communities building upon their capacities. Therefore, in present research social resilience of Zanjan city to earthquakes was evaluated using a descriptive-analytical method. The present study employed a database (Geographical Information System (GIS), an analytical-spatial model (social resilience evaluation model) and a decision-making model (Quantified Strategic Planning Matrix (QSPM)). Factors that contribute to the level of social resilience studied in the present research consisted of four criteria and twenty-eight sub-criteria. They were weighted based on their importance using an analytic hierarchical process (AHP); then GIS was used to address the level of social resilience of Zanjan city to earthquakes and finally vulnerable areas and neighborhoods were identified. Findings suggest that about 40% of Zanjan city area is of a low resilience to earthquakes and the most vulnerable areas include the old texture of such neighborhoods as Islam Abad and Kooye Farhang in District 3, Bisim in District 5 and such neighborhoods as Sabzeh Meidan and Davoud Qoli road located in Districts 1 and 2. In the next step, QSPM was used for decision making and selection of optimal strategies in order to prioritize strategies to implement in areas with high vulnerability and low social resilience.https://www.ijumes.com/article_32559_89d2a536c6219081a9985ba58f5c3ad6.pdfIranian Sustainable Building Scientific AssociationInternational Journal of Urban Management and Energy Sustainability2538-16281420201101Integrating Plan for Backwaters Transportation with Tourism Development, A Case Study of Kochi City Region46533484610.22034/ijumes.2019.4.10.033ENH.S.KumaraAssistant Professor, Urban and Regional Planning, School of Planning and Architecture, University of Mysore, Mysuru-570006. Karnataka.Journal Article20200412Kerala is one of the fastest growing urbanising states in India and half of the population residing in urban areas. The Kochi city region is having a population of 2.119 million (Census, 2011) and it is situated on the western coast of India in Ernakulam district of Kerala. Kochi is abundantly blessed with waterways with over 1,100 kms. However, only forty kilometers out of these are considered navigable for motor boats (IWAI). The aim of study is to evaluate whether and how Inland Water Transport can provide a valuable input to reimagining Kochi City Region through tourism development. The objective of the study is to assess existing Inland water transportation with tourism development and integrating plan for Backwaters Transportation with Tourism Development. This paper identifies a conceptual frame- work within which the effect of Backwater transportation with tourism development. The study is mainly based on sec- ondary sources of data including availability of infrastructure facilities at ferry station and tourist spots etc. Visual survey was conducted in ferry stations, tourist spots and tourist circuits and about 70 structured interview questionnaires were used to elicit the information from tourist, private boat operators and stakeholders in Kochi City Region through Opinion Survey. This paper attempts to analyze the efficiency of Backwaters transport with tourism development and explore sustainable development of tourism through integrating inland water transport for reimagining the Kochi City Region. https://www.ijumes.com/article_34846_94f0a35a8ae73c670fec214e5c595227.pdfIranian Sustainable Building Scientific AssociationInternational Journal of Urban Management and Energy Sustainability2538-16281420201101Explanation of Culture-led Regeneration Model in Urban Management of City Centers In order to Competitiveness54663255010.22034/ijumes.2018.18.12.025ENF.MoradiDepartment of Urban Planning, Faculty of Civil Engineering, Architecture and Art, Science and Research Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, IranZ.

This research seeks to codify the theoretical framework and drawing the conceptual model of culture-led regeneration in urban centers in society to compete by examining the concepts and positions. It likewise undertakes to make a good example of culture- led by examining the theory. The research method founded on the objective is employed and is descriptive- analytically in terms of information aggregation. In the descriptive portion of the study is a field study and in the analytical section, the research is exploratory and field research. Also, the structural equation method has been applied in order to the analysis of the effects between variables. For this determination, a questionnaire with closed questions and in the form of the Likert spectrum has been employed as a tool for information collection and LISREL software as a data analysis tool. The theoretical consequences of this research show that the culture-led regeneration, as a comprehensive and integrated action, uses culture as the catalyst for development and seeks to strengthen the multi-functional spirit. It likewise seeks to preserve and make the valuable urban resources to get into the internal competition and transnational. This intent is pursued by the consolidation of four approaches which include creative and cultural industries, shoes making, cultural tourism and eventful and city branding. As according to practical findings of research, creative and cultural industries, Functional component, physical- design component, the semantic component have significant effects on city competitiveness.https://www.ijumes.com/article_32550_1f06d3acecd32c5394bf8ba9911d66ea.pdfIranian Sustainable Building Scientific AssociationInternational Journal of Urban Management and Energy Sustainability2538-16281420201101Investigation of Urban Open-Spaces Organization Effects in Urban Management67763484710.22034/ijumes.2019.4.10.0349ENO.Jeddi FarzaneDepartment of Urban Planning, Faculty of Architecture and Urban Planning, Tabriz Islamic University of Art, Tabriz, IrannF.KhayamiDepartment of Urban Planning, Faculty of Architecture and Urban Planning, Iran University of Science and Technology, Tehran, IranJournal Article20200409Open space as a supplementary for green space results in reduction of human and constructional density. These places offer opportunities for creative growth, social interaction and conflict; applications such as establishing communication, relaxation and recreation are very efficient in cutting down pollution and improving the surroundings. Open spaces between residential buildings are placed in daily life where residents have relations with nature and spend their leisure time. In the past times, the courtyard was the beginning and the most accessible space to experience a tight relationship with nature and open place. In current conditions, the houses built in urban cores such as Tehran are not capable to supply most of the Iranian life needs. residential open spaces have various features and dimensions, and their principles and their planning criteria can be applied to achieve an appropriate residential environment. Some of these dimensions which their related criteria were noted in reviewing the principal disciplines and will be likewise utilized to analyze. On analysis stage, first, classifying documentary, statistical and spatial data with regard to the research objectives was done on the subject and field form, interviewing, photographing, using documents and available maps and also reference information and finding are classi- fied.

The object of research outlines the complex nature of green infrastructure development, its meanings, its perception in the landscape and use as an approach to landscape planning. Three central topics are distinguished. Firstly, by exploring variations in the imports of green infrastructure, the second explores the role of perceptions in the value and the role of green infrastructure resources and last one discusses the current green infrastructure use by practitioners The varied shades of green infrastructure are outlined and an assessment is made of how the principles of green infrastructure have been translated into appropriate landscape management In this study identify a number of conceptual and execution principles for green infrastructure. Founded on these discussions, this study suggests that a green infrastructure approach to planning can be practiced to take on the complex challenges of current landscape planning. With continued growth of green infrastructure, some of the most pressing topics in preparation, such as green space planning or sustainable urban development, can be discussed and These issues are discussed throughout the inquiry and clear links are drawn between this exploratory green infrastructure research and planning exercise.https://www.ijumes.com/article_32552_e6098d5b1d94ff8ff653522c48a3a327.pdfIranian Sustainable Building Scientific AssociationInternational Journal of Urban Management and Energy Sustainability2538-16281420201101Explanation of Morphological-Approach to Urban Form in Resilience Thinking911013484810.22034/ijumes.2019.4.10.035ENH.Danesh PajouhDepartment of Architecture and Urban Planning, University of Science and Research, Tehran, IranO.

Sometimes change will affect growth, whereas at other times it will lead to decay. Development and decline are reflected in the built environment through the dynamics of evolution (including renovation and renewal) and decay, the difficulty of this project turns out from the increasing complexity of urban envi- ronments and from the unpredictability of external changes, two styles that have promoted environmental awareness and, consequently, contributed to a growing debate on the relationship between city and nature. By looking at urban resilience through the lens of urban variety. It can be touched on to urban form as a product of the continuous tension between recovery and adaptation on several spatial and temporal scales of transformation.Although recent resilience approaches, such as spatial resilience, general resilience, and urban resilience, have dealt with urban form indirectly, and, conversely, some works in urban morphology have tried to comprehend the complexity of urban-natural environments, an explicit morphological perspective on urban resilience is still lacking in research. The paper is divided in three main parts: formal thinking of resilience, resilience of urban form (fitness, performance, and sustainability), and an urban network perspective on the two concepts. It closes with a discourse on the possibility of a space morphological approach to general urban resilience.https://www.ijumes.com/article_34848_de6eebf320b3847ebe4a8feb659fe440.pdf
