The study of the distribution of the sample and sampling, it was determined that the normal distribution and therefore parametric statistics were used to test the assumption.Aydadhhay study questionnaire with Cronbach's alpha of.832 in two demographic variables (five variables) and the main part consists of 20 multiplechoice questions with Likert items were extracted. Statistical data analysis, including both descriptive (frequency - mean...) and inferential statistics were used.

Introduction and Objective: Black economy is considered as a set of activities and economic exchanges, which may be legal or illegal, but cannot be measured and reported. So far, several studies have estimated the size of black economy in the world and Iran, Which represent the increase in black economy in many countries and especially in Iran. But no researches that explain the impact of black economic on the sense of security for the citizens were found. Due to the increase in size of the black economy it is imperative that these effects on people's sense of security must be measured and also for the citizens live in cities and black economy also generally occurs in cities.Method: Statistical population have been selected all the citizens of fifth district of Tehran, which it’s volume equals 793750. And the sample size was calculated based on the Cochran formula equals 383.97 (400 questionnaire speeded out). For this study questionnaire was developed after extensive literature studies. Creator variables of sense of security were divided to 5 variables: moral security, emotional security, health security, Criminal and financial security. And for moral sense of security, this research has conducted. After the data collection, questionnaire showed satisfactory in reliability and validity. To analyze the data, descriptive statistics (including frequency, percentage and average data) and inferential statistics were used. For inferential statistics after Kolmogorov-Smirnov test normality of the data has showed so one sample t test was used. Notably, all of the analyses were conducted in SPSS.Results: the results showed that black economy would not be desirable for moral sense of security in cities. The results of the study can be viewed as a warning sign especially for urban practitioners that immediate plans should be implemented to decrease the size of black economy as soon as possible.Conclusion: Therefore, suggestions for reducing the size of the black economy in this research were presented.

Introduction and Objective: municipalities to organize traffic and the beautification of urban spaces to urban infrastructure projects. These measures will function properly when the native space areas and urban neighborhoods and their needs match. In this study, the satisfaction of citizens in terms of physical, social, economic and environmental underpass project intersection (City Theater) is studied. Measuring satisfaction based on aspects of physical, economic, social and environmental, and to achieve optimal urban management is of great importance and urgency.Methods: The research method is descriptive - analytical and survey. The sample of 100 citizens community for residents and businesses around Vali underpass through Cochran's formula is obtained. To analyze the assumptions, one sample T-test and Friedman test for ranking factors and for comparison, percentages and frequencies of chi-square test were used.Results: The satisfaction of residents and shopkeepers specifies the creation of Age in terms of the physical underpass residents are satisfied. But in other aspects, according to the average obtained one sample T-test is less than the average, especially in the economic dimension that there was a significant difference between the real and perceived. The impact of satisfaction among residents Friedman test the physical and the social, environmental and economic are next respectively.Conclusion: The results of this study indicate that moderate to high level of satisfaction of citizens from Vali underpass has been created.

Introduction and aim: In most cities, the lack of appropriate space allocation and optimal allocation of city services, especially clinics (hospitals) and the number of factors affecting the positioning of these centers, increasing urban problems and citizens to follow. Therefore, this necessitates the use of effective methods and computer systems to optimize the positioning of these centers is increasingly apparent. The aim of this research is using fuzzy techniques and a comparison of the GIS to locate hospitals of Bandar Abbas has been optimized.Research Methodology: Using GIS capabilities and data analysis using Fuzzy Model for Optimal Positioning urban spaces to build hospitals in the city. Next the fuzzy membership small, large factors was performed. To weight the criteria are fuzzy, AHP method was performed. 30 questionnaires completed by architect experts and the weight of each of the layers was calculated. Finally, the overlaying layers to the overlap of fuzzy gamma 0.9, was used to analyze it.Results: Optimal sites to build new hospitals were identified on the map. By analyzing the decision and taking into account other aspects of a place in the semi-structural issues of the proposed locations was selected five place.Conclusion: It was found that the land use is suitable for construction of new hospitals. The land in areas with high population density and close to population centers, green spaces and main streets and away from existing health centers Vaqand the multicriteria fuzzy technology is a powerful tool for urban management.

The purpose of sustainable development in the regional level is to create spatial justice and to have a balanced distribution of various facilities and services. Whenever development in spatial aspect could provide some certain guidelines for convenient and just satisfaction of service needs of residents, it could be a sustainable one. In this study, by recognizing the pattern of development spatial distribution in Khusetan cities, we try to find out whether they are in a sustainable path or not. The study is a practical one and based on a descriptive-analytical method. Our data have been gathered from Statistical Annual of Khusetan in 2011. The results suggest that development spatial distribution in Khusetan cities are not according to the goals and principles of sustainable development. All analyses show that development spatial distribution in the province is so unequal and completely against the spatial justice rendered by sustainable development. Inequality has been occurred in different levels; Inequality between Ahvaz (center of province) and surrounding cities, between populous and thinly populated cities of the province, and inequality between northern and southern cities in one side and eastern and western ones in the other side. Besides, the current pattern of development in the province is against the wholistic view and systematic conduct of sustainable development in a way that sectional view of spatial development is so clear and evident.
