Abstract

The deterioration of rural textures is process-oriented, and even when the area is still in the stage of deterioration, the renewal of deteriorated areas must be done before the region reaches a very bad stage, which is completely unused. In this regard, identification and evaluation of texture deterioration cycle is one of the most important parts in the process of rural renewal activities. Hence, based on the four stages of the deterioration cycle (including the formation of primary grounds, the emergence of signs of deterioration, the improper living environment and reduction of texture efficiency, and the completion of deterioration), this study sought to identify the cycle of texture deterioration in rural area of Tehran province in Iran as well as to determine their physical textures in terms of positioning in this cycle using mathematical models. Accordingly, this study was conducted in a descriptive and applied method, and the required information were collected in both library and field methods through a questionnaire and interviews with 260 households and fifteen scientific specialists and local managers in the deteriorated villages fringe of Tehran metropolitan (mostly) in eight selected counties, which their views and opinions were received, described and analyzed. The results showed that the villages of Tehran province were in the third stage of texture deterioration cycle known as "the improper living environment and reduction of texture efficiency".
