Dr. Mihyar M. Awad believes that the environmental condition of industrial districts in developing countries is in perpetual change, which leads to the failure of the classical modernization method in achieving their goals. To provide a long term modernization method for developing countries, he has written "Fractal Modernisation Model of Industrial Areas' Environment in Developing Countries" (published by Xlibris).
Fractal theory is a mathematical theory that discovers a system of measurement for irregular chaotic forms on nature. It can forecast the metamorphosis and dynamism of living natural forms. By taking inspiration on the approach and understanding of the fractal theory structure, this book shares a new method to develop an industrial area's environment by creating self-similar, dynamical, hierarchical, flexible and networked modernization method.
"Readers and researchers, interested in Architecture, urban planning,industrial development, environmental studies, developing country's industrialization will find a great subject on this book and study cases taken place in Sudan as an Arabic, African country," Awad says.
"Fractal Modernisation Model of Industrial Areas' Environment in Developing Countries" is the result of Awad's research at Vienna University of Technology. He hopes this book will provide an understanding of the fractal theory and an inspiration to develop new environmental change management approach, an understanding of the dynamic nature of the industrial area's location and trace the development of these areas as well as the creation of new industrial area's environment development theory.
