| Housing and employment are two core elements of city spatial structure. The spatial distribution and causal relationship between them has practical significance to interpret the formation and evolution of city spatial structure.In recent year, an empirical study on the development of employment and living space distribution, interaction in Wuhan is further helpful to understand Wuhan urban internal spatial structure evolution, to reveal the dynamic mechanism of city development, to optimize city space structure and to better implement the requirements of the construction of "livable city" and "business city" goal planning.The paper is divided into seven parts, every specific contents are as follows:In the first part,there are the research background, research purpose and research contents, The second part introduces research. The third part from the time angle to sum up the historical evolution and characteristics and dynamic mechanism of employment and housing space distribution in Wuhan on the base of summarizes of spatial evolution. The fourth part from the space angle to study the employment and living status of spatial distribution and diffusion of each circle, found that housing and employment to the suburbs are to the suburbs spread phenomenon. The fifth part is the study of interaction between employment and housing space. On the basis of above research, this part firstly simulate the allometric growth model of two scales of employment and residential population data from2007to2011to measure that whether residential and employment population growth is synchronous or not, and the Boarnet model of the three layers of the simulation reveals the causal relationship between housing and employment spatial interaction in the context of suburbanization. The sixth part summarizes the effect of the relationship between housing and employment on the city development and put forward some suggestions to eliminate the negative impact on the city development. The last part summarizes the main conclusions and deficiencies in the paperThe conclusion shows that the population spatial distribution presents a layout center, suburban group, exurban dispersion. And in the process of suburbanization, it forms the center filled periphery situation. Employment forms the trend of decreasing from the city center to the outer suburb district and the periphery of it. Suburban areas become the most active area for employment and living activities with asynchronous phenomena appeared in the residential and employment diffusion process, there is a two-way guide causal relationship between housing and employment in suburban areas. According to the distribution of housing and employment and the interaction relation of them, we summarize its influence on the development of the city, and from three aspects, which are the improvement of traffic conditions, improving the supporting infrastructure,optimizing the spatial structure and industrial structure to put forward the countermeasures to alleviate urban problems in the process of suburbanization. |
