In today's dynamic and complex world, as never before, the design of multifunctional complexes is relevant in architectural activities. Their multifunctionality determine the development of new typological structures. Accordingly, there was a need to design a new type of multifunctional complexes, namely sports and educational complexes, which would combine training and sports in one building or group of buildings. The analysis of foreign and domestic experience of designing typologically similar complexes showed that sports and educational complexes are conditionally divided into two groups: complexes with a dominant educational function and complexes with a dominant sports function. On the basis of the comparative analysis of designed complexes it is possible to draw conclusions about existence of certain common and different receptions of the functional-planning organization depending on whether the sports or educational function dominates. There are several types of locking schemes for different functional zones: - blocked complexes with adjacent arrangement of different functional blocks (either horizontally or at different levels); - location of functional blocks in separately located buildings; - mixed type. The modern sports and educational complex should be designed taking into account the needs of young people, as well as complex economic circumstances, which in turn involves the application of the principles of compactness, functional flexibility and versatility. Foreign experience in designing such facilities shows that cultural and business components are also involved in sports and educational functions, which will ensure the profitability of such a public institution and the possibility of its location in valuable areas in the city center.

Abstract. The aim of the work is to determine the single concentrations of particulate matter in the lower layers of the atmosphere of Tobolsk. To achieve this goal, the following tasks were set: to determine the amount of PM2,5 and PM10 in various functional zones of the city; to create schemes for the quantitative distribution of suspended particles throughout the city; to localize areas with high levels of pollution for further monitoring; to analyze the influence of certain meteorological indicators (temperature and humidity air) on the content of suspended particles. The measurements were performed according to the repeatedly tested method using the AIR TESTER CW-HAT 200 device. It is established that in the lowers air layers of Tobolsk the content of PM2,5 and PM10 is low, the average geometric values are 5 and 7 ug/m3, respectively, which is significantly lower than the established maximum single concentrations for this indicator. The lowest values were found in the industrial and utility and storage zones, the highest values were found near the highway zone and in the city center, which suggests that the main source of PM2. 5 and PM10 is vehicles. Two sites with an increased level of pollution by suspended particles were localized. There were no significant correlations between PM2,5 and PM10 concentrations and air temperature and humidity.

City centers worldwide are perceived as essential parts of the city, where city memories are preserved and its identity is expressed. They are planned to satisfy the functional requirements and pleasurable qualities of the city. Under the accelerating urbanization of the modern city, several challenges face these centers including demographic, economic, and environmental challenges. This requires a continuous and incremental urban development process based on clear strategy and action plans. Thus, this study focuses on urban development strategies of city centers, with a focus on Rafah city located in the Gaza Strip, Palestinian Territories. The geographic location of this city near the Palestinian-Egyptian borders makes it a promising commercial city at local and regional levels. Thus, the current situation of Rafah city center has been analyzed, and several development strategies have been proposed. This has been done through a field survey based on observation and a questionnaire directed to city center users. It has been found that there is a great potential of Rafah city center to be developed as a commercial center. In this regard, several strategies and required actions have been proposed in the fields of transportation, environmental quality, shopping activities, investment opportunities, and visual perception.

In a general context of real estatespeculation, where rents and land prices are expensive, and a policy ofselective and limited housing, popular sectors can have access to a spacein the city through land occupation. In front of these conflicts, the Statein its different levels and powers, displays a form of intervention basedon the criminalization of struggles for land and housing. At the sametime, the national executive creates the Secretariat of Access to Habitat,oriented to allow political intervention for the regularization of settlements.However, this intervention tends to re-register the housing problems in thepolitical arena, reducing it to a conflict “between parties” and eluding theresponsibility of the State.From a qualitative methodological approach, we selected as empirical referencethe case of the settlement of Villa Obrera in Fiske, Menuco (GeneralRoca). The techniques of data collection are based on secondary sources, suchas policy and legal records, and primary sources as the stories of protagoniststhrough individual and collective interviews.Keywords: land occupation, State, criminalization of conflicts.Conflitos sobre ocupações de terras e modos deintervenção do estado: análise de uma experiênciado Alto Valle do Rio Preto (Argentina)ResumoEste trabalho analisa as relações entre a posse de terra e o Estado, no AltoValle do Rio Preto, na Argentina.

There is increasing evidence that ridehailing and other private-for-hire (PfH) services such as taxis and limousines are diverting trips from transit services. One question that arises is where and when PfH services are filling gaps in transit services and where they are competing with transit services that are publicly subsidized. Using weekday trip-level information for trips originating in or destined for the city center of Portland, OR from PfH transportation services (taxis, transportation network companies, limousines) and transit trip data collected from OpenTripPlanner, this study investigated the temporal and spatial differences in travel durations between actual PfH trips and comparable transit trips (the same origin–destination and time of day). This paper contributes to this question and to a growing body of research about the use of ridehailing and other on-demand services. Specifically, it provides a spatial and temporal analysis of the demand for PfH transportation using an actual census of trips for a given 2 week period. The comparison of trip durations of actual PfH trips to hypothetical transit trips for the same origin–destination pairs into or out of the central city gives insights for policy making around pricing and other regulatory frameworks that could be implemented in time and space.

AbstractIn urban renewal processes, metro line systems are widely used to accommodate the massive traffic needs and stimulate the redevelopment of the local area. The route choice of pedestrians, emanating from or going to the metro stations, is influenced by the street-scale built environment. Many renewal processes involve the improvement of the street-level built environment and thus influence pedestrian flows. To assess the effects of urban design on pedestrian flows, this article presents the results of a simulation model of pedestrian route choice behavior around Yingkoudao metro station in the city center of Tianjin, China. Simulated pedestrian flows based on 4 scenarios of changes in street-scale built environment characteristics are compared. Results indicate that the main streets are disproportionally more affected than smaller streets. The promotion of an intensified land use mix does not lead to a high increase in the number of pedestrians who choose the involved route when traveling from/to the metro station, assuming fixed destination choice.

Urban distribution in medium-sized cities faces a major challenge, mainly when deliveries are difficult in the city center due to: an increase of e-commerce, weak public transportation system, and the promotion of urban sustainability plans. As a result, private cars, public transportation, and freight transportation compete for the same space. This paper analyses the current state for freight logistics in the city center of Pamplona (Spain) and proposes alternative transportation routes and transportation modes in the last-mile city center distribution according to different criteria evaluated by residents. An analytic hierarchy process (AHP) was developed. A number of alternatives have been assessed considering routes and transportation modes: the shortest route criterion and avoiding some city center area policies are combined with traditional van-based, bike, and aerial (drone) distribution protocols for delivering parcels and bar/restaurant supplies. These alternatives have been evaluated within a multicriteria framework in which economic, environmental, and social objectives are considered at the same time. The point in this multicriteria framework is that the criteria/alternative AHP weights and priorities have been set according to a survey deployed in the city of Pamplona (Navarre, Spain). The survey and AHP results show the preference for the use of drone or bike distribution in city center in order to reduce social and environmental issues.
