2020
Amanpour, Saeed | Parvizian, Alireza
Nowadays, the vulnerability of urban settlements is one of the urban security risk factors. Meanwhile, shelter is one of the most important components of increasing the safety factor in cities in the face of hazards. In the present study, which was conducted using a "descriptive-analytical" method, an attempt was made to find the most appropriate place for the construction of an urban shelter in District One of Ahvaz metropolis. Theoretical data of the research was collected via library research, and after extracting the indicators, the spatial analysis of each index was obtained using GIS modeling. The analysis shows that the best places to build an urban shelter according to specific fuzzy patterns are located in the proximity of the Museum of Contemporary Art, adjacent to the Laleha Cultural and Educational Center, along the Khuzestan Agricultural Jihad Organization, Pars Hospital and Shahid Rajaei Hospital, near Hazrat Khadijeh High School, Hajar Technical Schools, etc.

After movement decision, determination of new location is one of the most critical steps in the process of movement. The reason is that the results of movement, which have several different aspects, are emerged in the long term. The previous experiences showed that the nonchalance in locating the new settlements leads to failure of several movement plans. This study is a descriptive-analytical research. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the movement plans of Larini olya&sofla and Farrokh Abad in Ilam Province in terms of location through method of McHarg, and its needed data have been gathered through fieldwork and text study methods. The findings revealed that from perspective of a large part of criteria, the villages are in the appropriate and semi-appropriate conditions, but the slope of Larini village is inappropriate and Farrokh Abad village is inappropriate in terms of exposure to agricultural lands. Since there are a few situations in which settlements have all of the criteria, it can be concluded that the locations of these villages are appropriate from studied criteria, so the hypothesis is supported.

Air pollution is one of the most important problems of industrial cities. The existence of large industrial factories, official and industrial facilities, National Iranian South Oil Company, National Iranian Drilling Company, etc., have turned Ahvaz to one of the main industrial centers and one of the most polluted cities of Iran. Coming into contact with airborne microorganisms is related to a host of negative effects on the human health. This study was carried out to find out the effect of oil industries on air pollution and its optimal locating through the environmental approach in Ahvaz metropolis. In this study, SCREEN3 software was used to find out and analyze the distribution of Sox, NOx, and CO pollutants. Based on expert opinion, the main criteria were determined as climatic, natural, environmental, and economic factors. After calculating weights through the AHP model and attaining the information layers, the GIS software capabilities to combine and overlap the maps were used. This led to a map depicting the optimal location of oil industries congruent with the environmental approach in Ahvaz metropolis. According to the obtained results, there should be no residence-based activity in at least 5000 meters distance from the oil industries, where air pollutants have a considerable density. That is to say, within this distance, the animate and inanimate creatures will be damaged the most. The most optimal areas for the establishment of oil industry facilities are located on the west, south, southwest, and parts of east and north of the area under study.
