Résumé : Over recent years the ideas emerging from the discovery of dissipative structures have been applied to the problem of modeling the dynamic evolution of urban systems. A dynamic model of a central place system was developed and tested, as well as a preliminary intraurban model involving six urban actors. Here we present a further development of this latter model, where an initial investigation is made of the evolving structures which characterize the interaction of seven types of urban actor. A transportation network of both public and private modes is introduced explicity into the model, and a combined transportation-land-use model capable of exploring structural urban changes is presented, which will be used to explore the possible effects of changing circumstances and tastes on urban structure and organization. © 1984.
