Abstract:

The features of urban population settlement development are disclosed. The peculiarities of urban territorial structures in different regions are explored. The supporting frame of urban population settlement development is investigated. The traditional types of urban settlement supporting frames (ring-radial, rectangular regular, linear-nodular, seaside as well as multicore) are defined. The new forms of ring-radial settlement systems (vector, polynuclear, semi-ring et al.) are characterized. The main advantages and disadvantages of urban settlement configuration are shown. The basic examples of their development are proposed.
