963 Urban Planning Identification and Review of Defenseless Urban Spaces in Oudlajan Neighborhood of Tehran Montazeri Z. c EbrahimPoor M. d c Department of Urban Planning, Faculty Architecture and Urban Planning, Art University, Tehran, Iran d Department of Architecture and Urban Planning, Khavaran Institute, Mashhad, Iran 1 1 2021 36 1 13 21 16 08 2020 15 09 2020 Aims: Security is one of the basic pillars of urban spaces in order to ensure the welfare and comfort of citizens. Some urban spaces, due to their specific functional and physical characteristics, become spaces for crime and insecurity, and are considered as a defenseless space. The historical context of Oudlajan neighborhood of Tehran has created insecure and defenseless spaces due to the existence of some special physical-functional features. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to identify and study defenseless spaces in Oudlajan neighborhood of Tehran. Methodology: This research is applied in terms of purpose and analytical-descriptive in terms of method. Data collection is based on field-dominated Library Studies, which use observation, questionnaire, interview and photography tools in the field section. The statistical population is the entire population of Oudlajan neighborhood, which according to Cochran's formula, 374 people have been identified as a sample population. Data analysis was performed SPSS software (sample T_tests, ANOVA and Friedman). Findings: Defenseless spaces in Oudlajan neighborhood are undesirable due to the high average value. Also, in comparison between Oudlajan neighborhoods, Imamzadeh Yahya neighborhood is in a better position than the other two neighborhoods. In Friedman's prioritization, the functional-physical, visual dimensions are ranked first and second, respectively. Conclusion: The results indicate that there are 72 defenseless spaces in Oudlajan neighborhood, so through strategies such as infrastructure development, cultural and sports facilities with the help of people and local institutions can play an effective role in organizing and returning security to the neighborhood. 933 Geomorphology Investigation of the Relationship between Geomorphic Characteristics and Sediment Production in Nirchai Basin Madadi A. e Ghale E. f Ebadi E. g Nezafat B. h Pasban A. i e Department of Geomorphology, Faculty Social Sciences, Mohaghegh Ardabili University, Ardabil, Iran f Department of Geomorphology, Faculty Social Sciences, Mohaghegh Ardabili University, Ardabil, Iran g Department of Geomorphology, Faculty Social Sciences, Mohaghegh Ardabili University, Ardabil, Iran h Department of Geomorphology, Faculty Social Sciences, Mohaghegh Ardabili University, Ardabil, Iran i Department of Geomorphology, Faculty Social Sciences, Mohaghegh Ardabili University, Ardabil, Iran 1 1 2021 36 1 23 34 28 07 2020 15 09 2020 Aims: Today, soil erosion and sediment production are considered a danger to humans and their lives, so in areas where soil erosion is not controlled, soils gradually erode and lose their fertility. The aim of this study is to model the relationship between the amount of suspended sediment load and the geomorphic features of the Nirchai River Basin. Methodology: In this study, GIS was used to extract geomorphic features and its relationship with sedimentation. Stepwise multivariate regression analysis was used to determine the relationship between geomorphic characteristics and sedimentation of each sub-basin. The results of investigating the relationship between geomorphic characteristics and sediment in sub-basins showed that the amount of sediment produced had a positive correlation with the volume of flow and the form factor of the basin and was significant at the level of 5 percent. Also, in order to identify the factors affecting the amount of sediment in the basin among the existing variables, the principal component analysis method was used. Findings: The results show that among 25 variables affecting sediment production, four factors of area, basin coefficient, environment and discharge were 37/78, 25/47, 18/5 and 11/22 percent of variance of all variables of research. Conclusion: Therefore, it is concluded that in total, all the effective factors of the four final extracted factors were able to explain 92.9 percent of the variance of all research variables. 949 Urban Planning Assessing Urban Resilience Against Flood Risk; a Case Study of “Water and Electricity” Neighborhood in Mashhad City, Iran Saeidi Mofrad S. j Taleb Elm M. k j Assistant Professor, Department of Urbanism, Mashhad Branch, Islamic Azad University, Mashhad, Iran k MA, Department of Urbanism, Mashhad Branch, Islamic Azad University, Mashhad, Iran 1 1 2021 36 1 35 43 05 08 2020 20 09 2020 Aims: Assessing the vulnerability of urban areas to surface water is of particular importance. Destruction of the watershed upstream of urban areas with the destruction of vegetation and road construction and the uncontrolled expansion of urban and industrial lands reduces the infiltration and increases running water, and carries the risk of floods. This study aimed to evaluate the resilience status of the Mashhad water and electricity neighborhood against flood risk. Methodology: This descriptive study was conducted in 2020. Data collection was performed through library studies, Internet search, and databases, and the required data were extracted from the SWMM model for runoff simulation by combining the Hec-Ras hydraulic model in ARC-GIS software. Findings: In the study area, low rainfall and short time but with high instantaneous intensities produced higher waterfall peaks than higher rainfall and longer time but with lower instantaneous intensities. Conclusion: The location to determine the boundary of the floodplain is located on the left side of Laden Boulevard (between Laden 12 to the water and electricity grid), which, even with normal rain, fills the riding area to the edge of the asphalt with water. The northern part of the neighborhood, especially the northeastern part, is more at risk of flooding. 917 Urban Planning Using Multi-Criteria Spatial Decision Support System (MC-SDSS) in Prioritization of Brownfield Redevelopment in Mashhad Metropolis, Iran Saeidi Mofrad S. l l Department of Urbanism, Faculty of art and Architecture, Mashhad Branch, Islamic Azad University, Mashhad, Iran 1 1 2021 36 1 45 54 14 07 2020 26 09 2020 Aims: The concept of redevelopment is accompanied by measures and forecasts to improve the quality of cities' physical environment. This is necessary when the cohesion, coordination and performance of the urban environment are diminished and do not meet the needs of the environment. Brownfields are, including abandoned areas, inefficient and in need of redevelopment in cities. This unstable land as urban areas have led to environmental degradation, social segregation, and incidence of identity and instability in the cities have been. Despite these problems, it is important to pay attention to and identify these areas and evaluate them for purposeful and sustainable intervention in these lands. This study's main issue was to identify the indicators for the definition of brownfields in the metropolis of Mashhad and to determine the criteria for prioritizing the redevelopment of these lands. Methodology: This research is applied in terms of purpose and method, based on consecutive analytical and exploratory strategy. Furthermore, for analysis, using Multi-Criteria Spatial Decision Support System and its hybrid models (TOPSIS, SAW). Findings: Based on analyzes performed and components and indicators Obtained from available sources, a conceptual model with five components and 30 indicators and the weight of each category and the importance of the issues were determined. Conclusion: The results indicate that the redevelopment of brownfield in the Mashhad creates countless opportunities to revitalize and regenerate urban activities and achieve urban sustainability in various social, economic, physical, and environmental dimensions. Among the 13 metropolitan areas of Mashhad, District 12 is the priority for the brownfield redevelopment, and SAMEN district, as the most central urban area that includes the historical urban fabric, was the last priority in the redevelopment of brownfield. 961 Rural Planning Effect of Iranian-Afghan Marriages on Socio-Economic Dimensions of Rural Quality of Life in Jiroft, Iran Saeidi M. m Mirlotfi M.R. n m Department of Geography, Faculty of Literature and Humanities, Zabol University, Zabol, Iran n Department of Geography, Faculty of Literature and Humanities, Zabol University, Zabol, Iran 1 1 2021 36 1 55 62 12 08 2020 13 09 2020 Amis & Backgrounds: The expansion of international migration as well as the marriage of immigrants with the host community will cause special effects in geographical spaces and especially the quality of life of migrant areas.

Department of Geography, Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Yazd University, Yazd, Iran 1 1 2021 36 1 87 97 22 08 2020 14 09 2020 Introduction: In political geography, sovereignty is the highest coercive power on a territorial scale which has been the creator of classical political, geographical views since the Westphalian period. However, since the 1980s, the function of Westphalian sovereignty in the production of geographical space has been criticized by poststructuralist geographers. A new wave of theories and approaches began that assumes power as a pervasive and pluralistic process at all societal levels. This research has been struggled to analyze the causes, contexts, and functions of the conceptual turn of political sovereignty and its function in the production of geographical space in poststructuralist political geography. In this regard, in the first step, geographical space and its dimensions and subdivisions are defined concerning the poststructuralist school. Then, by explaining how to reconstruct the concept of sovereignty in the poststructuralist school, a new perspective is presented concerning the conceptual consequences of governance in political geography. Conclusion: Findings research shows that civil society is considered the main source of space production in poststructuralist political geography. In this regard, considering the same credibility for discourses and social forces opens the door to dialogue in management and organization of space. In this context, the multiplicity and difference of social forces in the governance process are recognized and emphasize the right to exist. By emphasizing the right to different exist; Participatory democracy emerges, and the transfer of power to smaller territorial units such as local governments is considered.
