Reflection in the mysterious urban biological system, originates from the debate of thought and intuition, reason and love, and knowledge and insight. The present article explores the explanation and revelation of an ancient pattern that has linked many of our architectural elements throughout history.An archetype with “Up-Down” concepts that has reflected from the people’s imagery into the in urban architecture space. In the meantime, the question arises that what is the connection between these ideas, behaviors, the value system and the human living space system, especially in cities? To achieve this, the content analysis method is used. First, the relationship between the elements is conceived qualitatively and afterwards, the relation between the phenomena is explained by selecting the study areas and surveying citizens based on the semantic differentiation method. The results indicate that the idea of perfectionism and movement towards peak and perfection (up and down) in Iranian literature and culture has always been present and the association of its meaning in people’s minds, has led to the formation of a specific spatial arrangement and urban living system. http://iic.ihss.ac.ir/Article/21101Archetype Language-Up/Down Idea Semantic differential Islamic-Iranian architectureperInstitute of Humanities and Social Studies, Iraninan Academic Center for Education, Culture & Research (ACECR)مطالعات شهر ایرانی-اسلامی2228-639X2980-94282022-0612451730articleAzadeh Aghalatifiazadehaghalatifi@gmail.com1Ph.D. in Architecture, Assistant Professor, Department of Architecture and Urbanism, Shahid Beheshti University, Tehran, Iran.We live in an era which the change is a main part of it, and this is due to the successive developments in architecture. But everything in a city is not equally affected by changes, and home, the place that is more closely associated with human life, has undergone a lot of change. The present paper attempts to focus on historic and contemporary homes of Sanandaj, offering a reading that goes beyond the physical and into local living culture. The research adopts a qualitative approach on three levels: an analysis of the town’s general characteristics and its effects on houses, as well as an analytic-descriptive comparison between some examples, and finally an analysis based on compatibilities of local living culture and architecture through deep, semi-structured interviews. The results show that the main distinct features of Sanandaj homes are their relation with nature, the attention paid to exterior views whilst keeping privacy, the importance of the semi-opened space in them and the spatial hierarchies. However, the continuity of these features in the contemporary homes is vague. Thus, it can be claimed that changes in the city and the external form of buildings in one hand and interior space, in the other hand, indicate a lack of dependence of contemporary home on traditional architecture. http://iic.ihss.ac.ir/Article/21065Home House Historical Home Contemporary Evolution SanandajperInstitute of Humanities and Social Studies, Iraninan Academic Center for Education, Culture & Research (ACECR)مطالعات شهر ایرانی-اسلامی2228-639X2980-94282022-0612453146articlesalman noghrekars.noghrekar@gmail.com1reyhaneh rahimireyhan.rahimi@yahoo.com2Assistant Professor, Faculty of Architecture and Urban Planning, Shahid Rajaee Teacher Training UniversityMaster of Architecture, Faculty of Architecture and Art, Kashan University.Without a proper definition of the right way of “living”, we can not talk about the good form of “housing” and the desired quality of “living space”. The research hypothesis is that “living container” and “lifestyle” have a reciprocal effect. Man’s life includes his fourfold relationship with “God, self, others and nature”, which, if based on Islamic teachings, can be said to have been achieved by the Muslim way of life. And “architecture” has the attribute of “Islamic” to the extent that it facilitates it. The aim of this research is to achieve principles for such “architecture” on the scale of “residential complex”. The research question is “What principles should we follow in designing a residential complex that lays the groundwork for an Islamic lifestyle?” To find the answer On the one hand, during conceptual modeling, nine key components of a residential complex were explained. Then, during library studies and content analysis methods, different approaches to “Islamic housing” were categorized and analyzed in two ways: “quantitative and qualitative”. From the third path, the characteristics of the Islamic way of life were obtained from the point of view of Allameh Javadi Ameli - as an Islamologist based on research; accordingly, the residential complex includes four main areas: “housing, roads, service space and green and open space”. The result of the research is the achievement of “design rules” of each of these nine elements that make up the residential complex, which is expressed in the form of “negative and positive principles”. In the current situation of the country, where due to the people’s need for housing, the policy of the “National Housing Production Movement” has been proposed by managers, the achievement of this research can be the guiding principles in designing a residential complex for designers. It should also be a basis for teaching architecture and training architects, especially in the course “Residential Complex Design” (Design 5).http://iic.ihss.ac.ir/Article/31705Islamic housing Islamic life style the four human relationships Residential complex Javadi Amoli The keys of life Architecture trainingperInstitute of Humanities and Social Studies, Iraninan Academic Center for Education, Culture & Research (ACECR)مطالعات شهر ایرانی-اسلامی2228-639X2980-94282022-0612454760articleMehrab Shahrivarmeh_shahrivar99@yahoo.com1hossein kalantari khalil abadH_kalantari2005@yahoo.com2Gholamreza Latifilatifi@atu.ac.ir3PhD Student, Department of Architecture, Faculty of Architecture and Urban Planning, Central Tehran Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, IranProfessor, Department of Architecture, Faculty of Architecture and Urban Planning, Islamic Azad University, Alborz, Iran; Professor of the IHSS, ACECR, IranDepartment of Architecture, Central Tehran Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, IranThe city of knowledge is one of the created concepts of the new millennium. Although signs of the concept of the city of knowledge can be traced back to a decade ago, but since the 21st century, cities around the world have moved towards the concept of knowledge-based development. The purpose of this study is to evaluate and analyze the level of managerial capabilities and technological capabilities and infrastructure of the knowledge-based city in Shiraz, which was done using a mixed research method (qualitative and quantitative). The dimensions and components of the knowledge-based city were first measured through a qualitative study (content analysis) based on the qualitative characteristics of the research and then a quantitative study was performed using the IPA technique (importance and performance). After these studies, the importance of the components identified in the first stage of the research was determined. Using data analysis, the priority matrix for improving knowledge-based indicators in Shiraz was also determined. The results also showed that the most important priority of Shiraz is awareness and increasing the knowledge of citizens with weight (0.158). On the other hand, decreasing paper services by weight (0.138) and increasing online services by weight (0.112) were correlated with each other as the second and third priorities. In addition, during this study, it was found that the educational infrastructure of Shiraz is in a good condition in terms of knowledge principles.http://iic.ihss.ac.ir/Article/34227Urban-oriented IPA technique Knowledge-based city Urban management Shiraz cityperInstitute of Humanities and Social Studies, Iraninan Academic Center for Education, Culture & Research (ACECR)مطالعات شهر ایرانی-اسلامی2228-639X2980-94282022-0612456170articleMohammad ebrahim Mazharim.e.mazhary@gmail.com1Fattemeh Poodatf.poodat@gmail.com2Hadi SoltanifardH.soltanifard@hsu.ac.ir3Assistant Professor, Department of Architecture, Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz, Ahvaz, Iran.Assistant Professor, Department of Architecture, Shahid Chamran University of Ahvaz, Ahvaz, Iran.Associate Professor, Department of Geography and Environmental Sciences, Hakim Sabzevari University, Sabzevar, Iran.Holding rituals in the city is a reflection of collective life that strengthens social connectivity. Sacred places and shrines are an influential element in the construction and interconnectedness of Iranian cities. Religious shrines are the gathering places of different groups of people which link the flow of ceremonies and rituals. The purpose of this study is to investigate the position of Ali Ibn Mahziar’s tomb in the physical-spatial structure of Ahvaz and its effect on the formation of religious rituals, especially the mourning ceremonies of Tasua and Ashura within Ahvaz. This research is of descriptive-analytical type and employs methods of observation and field perceptions as well as reviewing the results of spatial arrangement analysis and graph modelling in order to study the adaptation of currents related to religious rites (for the movement of mourning delegations) and the existing city structure and especially the location of the shrine of Ali ibn Mahziar. Therefore, after field surveys, initial modelling was performed using graph theory approach and data analysis with centrality index and BC and DC scales, and then applying integration, connectivity and choice, space syntax analysis of Ahvaz city was implemented. The results show that the shrine of Ali ibn Mahziar plays a central role in attracting mourners from different parts of the city and strengthening social interactions and the presence of citizens. The focal position of the shrine in the configuration of the city reveals the close relation of this effective spatial element with the social patterns of the city, which over time, despite the changes, is still at the center of rituals and social interactions.http://iic.ihss.ac.ir/Article/19950Religious rituals spatial configuration space syntax shrine of Ali Ibn Mahziar AhvaziperInstitute of Humanities and Social Studies, Iraninan Academic Center for Education, Culture & Research (ACECR)مطالعات شهر ایرانی-اسلامی2228-639X2980-94282022-0612457184articlemohammad saber Eslamloumohammad.saber.eslamlou@gmail.com1 Manouchehr Tabibiantabibian@ut.ac.ir2Mahta Mirmoghtadaieemmoghtada@yahoo.com3Ph.D Candidate in Urban Planning, Qazvin Branch, Islamic Azad University, Qazvin, IranProfessor, Department of Urban Planning, Fine Art’s College, University of Tehran, IranAssistant Professor, Road, Housing and Urban Development Research Center (BHRC), Tehran, IranUrban resilience is an approach, developed to respond to different unpredictable disasters. It is hypothesized that besides capacity, resistance and ability, there are other elements involved in urban resilience that have to be extracted. It seeks to develop a conceptual framework for urban resilience and to present its characteristics through a systematic review of the updated publications. Second, it proposes an inclusive definition of urban resilience, relying on the results of this study, finally, the qualitative data are reviewed to shed light on hidden aspects of urban resilience. This is a qualitative research in which thematic analysis, MAXQDA 13.28 software is used to understand and analyze the data. A collection of 100 publications containing definition of resilience was gathered as data, based on which six characteristics for conceptual framework of urban resilience were extracted as R1 to R6. The extracted results, were confirmed by expert panel and also the keywords were used in CiteSpace software to confirm their inclusion in 1250 published papers in the international journals under WOS index over the period of 2010 to 2020 (i.e. the papers which had ‘urban resilience’ and ‘urban resiliency’ phrases in their topics) and the results were supported. The authors define: “urban resilience is ability of cities to respond in timely manner and to resist during occurring natural or man-made disasters; while adapting and coordinating with new situations, in case of not being collapsed, they will continue their urban functions stronger than the past.”http://iic.ihss.ac.ir/Article/34183Urban resiliency Conceptual Framework Thematic Analysis
