Conceptual Development of Urban Super-blocks Model in Urban Planning Based on Content Analysis Method by Hafez Mahdnejad

“…Based on the analysis and synthesis of the findings, 101 open codes have been identified regarding the unique characteristics of urban superblocks, which have been classified into 31 core codes. Axial codes in six selected codes are classified including background conditions (superblock and mini-block environment), causal conditions (field of urban action, land use and urban morphology, urban function, urban complexity, biodiversity and urban green, metabolic efficiency , social unity, human-centered street, complete streets, healthy streets and sustainable streets), mediating conditions (good urban governance and mixed use), central category (biological and physiological needs, security needs, belonging needs, respect needs, cognitive needs, aesthetic needs and self-fulfillment needs), strategies (green space redesign, space reassignment and restrictions and active transportation) and consequences (environmental improvement, traffic reduction, air pollution reduction, social cohesion, health promotion, economic). …”

A Dynamic State Cluster-Based Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithm by Zhenya Diao, Fei Yu, Hongrun Wu, Xuewen Xia

“…To address these limitations, this paper introduces a dynamic state cluster-based particle swarm optimization (DSCPSO) algorithm, which employs population phenotypic entropy based on clustering technique. (1) The algorithm provides theoretical splitting points by mathematically analyzing the population into four states: convergence, exploitation, escape, and exploration, enabling more effective parameter adaptive mechanisms. (2) DSCPSO incorporates sinusoidal chaos mapping to dynamically adjust inertia weights, allowing particles to better align with the population’s evolutionary state. (3) During the convergence state, an intelligent particle migration strategy (IPMS) enhances search efficiency within the solution space, preventing unnecessary computational resource consumption. Eventually, comparative analysis with 10 advanced existing algorithms on the CEC2017 and CEC2022 benchmark suites demonstrates that DSCPSO achieves competitive performance across over 70% of the functions, validating the algorithm’s effectiveness and superiority. …”
