Development of a polyfunctional structure of transport hubs in Smart City

Abstract

The development of the of transport hubs system, as a part of the urban passenger transport system, is one of the most important areas of urban development in large cities. Without observing these principles, the development of new kinds of cities – Smart Cities – is impossible. In this article the question of formation of a polyfunctional structure of transport hubs is considered. The issue of allocation of building volumes for various functional purposes within the hub is included in a range of topical problems of urban development. In the study presented by this article, a factor stochastic analysis was used. The relationship between various independent factors determining the operation of the transport hub, as well as the indices of the volume of development of various functional purposes, placed in the structure of the hub, was investigated. The analysis was carried out in order to reduce the number of factors considered and identify the most significant ones. All of the considered indicators are measurable on a metric level. The present study is the stage of a correlation-regression analysis. In the future, it is planned to supplement this study by analyzing the factors measured (allocated) at a qualitative level with the purpose of scientific and methodological justification of the formation of transport hubs in Smart City.
