New York City and Chang’an It is interesting that two cities over 7,000 miles apart from one another, and in completely different time periods, could have so many similarities. The city of Chang’an in China during the Tang Dynasty was set up in a grid fashion similar to that of modern day New York City. Flourishing trade was of great importance to the development of both cities, but very different political systems were used to govern each. Modern day New York City and Chang’an during the Tang
urban plans mainly with the exception of their acropolises. However excess population growth in these city states lead to the colonization wave of the mediterranean during what is known as classical antiquity. The colonies were founded by their metropolises after carefully selecting their locations, providing access to natural resources (minerals, fertile lands, water) and trading routes. These cities were planned usually following the Hippodamian plan of city layouts. The Hippodamian plan was first
When urban planners sit at a table, and they are deciding what actions to take, they look at location as a primary source for putting cities together, with the development of houses, industries, and places for market goods to be sold while always trying to increase the supply and demand. In order to get from one place to the next, transportation methods were created to combat city growth and create valuable mechanisms of transporting goods and services within a market. Individuals determined to make
Whenever attempting to plan for any certain aspect of a city for development, it is very important to consider many of the attributes of urban planning. In order for a city to be successfully constructed, certain elements to the planning must be enacted. The General Plan for any given city is important to consider while in the process of constructing it because of all of the many revisions, alterations, and changes that the plan undergoes in order to lead to the final product. The municipality that
2.0 Literature Review Urban sprawl does have major impacts that effects urban fabrication positively and negatively. These major impacts will be explored under the categories of housing affordability, suburban lifestyle and health. In this section, the literature reviewed is predominately studies of Australia, United Kingdom and United States of America. Within each of the section of the literature review positive and negative impacts of lifestyle will be explored. 2.1 Housing Affordability Urban
The general plan practically acts as a constitution when it comes to the development of a city. There are seven elements that usually feature in a general plan such as safety, noise, open space, conservation, housing, circulation, and land use. However, these elements may exceed the number to accommodate subject matters that are unique to a specific community. Such is the case with the city of Fremont. Apart from the elements mandated by the state, the general plan of Fremont include elements such
the components in a single row. Next is grid layout. As long as you can determine the rows and columns, you can use this layout. It is possible to use grid layout for most of the applications which you want to develop with a single panel. You can always use filler labels to occupy the empty spaces. So grid layout works fine in such cases. But if you want to have a very neat GUI with very good layout, you need to go for more than 1 panel. In that case, grid, flow, and border are all used together
Investigating Patterns in Grids of Different Sizes Introduction: For my coursework I will be investigating patterns in grids of different sizes. Within the grid each square has a number. E.g. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 For each boot (highlighted above) I will develop a formula to work out the total value of the numbers added up. The boot will consist of three numbers up
T-Totals Investigation Introduction If you look at the 9x9 grid with the T-shape, you can see that the total of the numbers added together is 37 because it is1+2+3+11+21 which equals 37. This is what we call the T-total (37) And T-number is the number at the bottom of the T-shape which in this case is 20 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31
relationship between T-totals and T-numbers. In my investigation I will also try and find out the relationships between the grid size and the transformations. The T-number is always the number at the bottom of the T shape and the T-total is always all the numbers inside the T shape added together. 1 2 3 10 11 12 19 20 21 [IMAGE] 9 By 9 Grid: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22
that works its way into our imaginations and serves to constrain how we act. For example in the setting of a workplace the power does not pass from the top down; instead it circulates through their organizational practices. Such practices act like a grid, provoking and inciting certain courses of action and denying others. Foucault considers this as no straightforward matter and believes that it rests on how far individuals interpret what is being laid down as 'obvious' or 'self evident', institutional
marshy area, and is the furthest away from the nearest town (7 km). Its grid reference is . It was also the furthest to walk to, it was far away from built up areas, and we had to walk for half a mile to reach the area. Site 2 is closer to the main road, and (unlike source 1) it is within a few minutes walking distance. This site is within 4 km of Lyndhurst; it is more built up and developed here. Millyford Bridge’s grid reference is . The Balmer Lawn (site 3) is located within 1 km of Brockenhurst
opposite corners in grids. I will start by investigating a 7x7 grid. Within this grid I will use 2x2, 3x3, 4x4, 5x5, 6x6 and a 7x7 grid. I will do this to find whether I can find a pattern. I will do this by multiplying the two opposite corners together then subtracting them. I will try to find the patterns and do a formula that will work for all grid sizes and shapes. I will experiment shapes and sizes of all different grids. Prediction I predict that in a 7x7 grid all the opposite corners
what the artists did achieve stands nonetheless among the greatest art of the ancient world. The process by which these decorations were achieved is quite well understood. In some cases, though not all, draughtsmen laid out the representations using grids made by measuring rods and paint-covered strings snapped against the walls. The images and inscriptions were then applied in red paint outlines which were corrected as necessary in black. The care involved at this stage is seen in that sometimes errors
Investigating The Answer When The Products Of Opposite Corners on Number Grids Are Subtracted Introduction The purpose of this investigation is to explore the answer when the products of opposite corners on number grids are subtracted and to discover a formula, which will give the answer in all cases. I hope to learn some aspects of mathematics that I previously did not know. The product is when two numbers are multiplied together. There is one main rule: the product
T-totals Introduction For my T-totals maths coursework I will investigate the relationship between the T-total and T-number, the T-total and T-number and grid size and the T-shape in different positions. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50
the formulas for 5 different size stairs on 3 different grid sizes, I will go on to investigate the relationship between all of the formulas. From this I will be able to discover the ultimate formula that will allow me to work out any stair size on any size grid and in any position. As any other formula I will need to predict and prove it, to check that it is correct. But I also need to investigate if there is anywhere on the grid that my formula will not work. Lastly I will write a conclusion
volume decreases. At this point I will decrease the square cut out by 0.1cm until I reach the maximum volume. This will be done on several different grids until I see a pattern which I will then use to create a formula. I will record my results in a table for the different grids and record the peaks to try and establish a pattern. My initial grid size will be 12cm x 12cm and I will increase this as I continue my investigation. The volume will be calculated by multiplying the length by the
this T. On a 9x9 grid a T would look like this: [IMAGE] From this we can see that if: T number = n 1 = a 2 = b 3 = c 11 = d 20 = n [IMAGE] a = n-19 From this we can see that the T-Total b = n-18 will equal: c = n-17 d = n-9 1 + 2 + 3 + 11 + 20 = 37 e = n Using the algebraic formula for each of the numbers we can see that: T-Total = (n-19) + (n-18) + (n-17) + (n-9) + (n) = 5n-63 We can see that if we apply this formula to a 9x9 grid we can find the
on the grid. Secondly I was asked to investigate the relationship further between the stair totals and the other step stairs on other number grids. The number grid below has two examples of 3-step stairs. I will use Algebra as a way to find the relationship between the stair total and the position of the stair on the grid. I will use arithmetic and algebra to investigate the relationships between the grid and the stair further. The variables used will be: Position of stair on grid = X
