Investigating the Patterns of Islamic Architecture in Architecture Design of Third Millennium Mosques
European Online Journal of Natural and Social Sciences 2014; www.european-science.com Vol.3, No.4 Special Issue on Architecture, Urbanism, and Civil Engineering ISSN 1805-3602 Investigating the Patterns of Islamic Architecture in Architecture Design of Third Millennium Mosques Parvin Farazmand1*, Hassan Satari Sarbangholi2 1Young Researchers and Elite Club, Tabriz Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tabriz, Iran; 2Architecture Group of Azad-e-Eslami University, Tabriz Branch *Email: [email protected] Abstract Islamic architecture, which is based on the Islamic school, has been shaped by the total awareness of architects’ of techniques of architecture and adherence to the principles of geometry and inspired by religious beliefs. Principles of geometry and religious beliefs caused certain patterns to take shape in Islamic architecture that were used in designing buildings including mosques. With the advancements in technology, architecture entered a new stage considering the form of construction and the buildings. Islamic architecture and mosque, which is the primary symbol of Islamic architecture, are not different and consequently went through changes in forms and patterns. In this paper, the purpose is to express the place of patterns of Islamic Architecture in the mosques of the third millennium. The method used is descriptive-analytic and the mosques of the third millennium are the statistical population and ten of them are the statistical sample. The tools used are the library studies and the data has been analyzed using chars obtained from Excel. The result indicated that in the architecture of the mosques of the third millennium, the patterns of Islamic architecture have been fixed and proposed, and yet do create different designs that would be novel. -

Throughout history, Abstract—Architecture in Iran has a continuous history from at Iranian architecture had its own originality and simplicity. All least 5000 BC to the present, and numerous Iranian pre-Islamic parts of Iran, especially villages and ancient monuments are elements have contributed significantly to the formation of Islamic like a live but old book of art and architecture, history, which art. At first, decoration was limited to small objects and containers in a brief moment, each page of that opens the gates of several and then progressed in the art of plaster and brickwork. They later applied in architecture as well. The art of gypsum and brickwork, thousand years of history to the visitors [7]. which was prevalent in the form of motifs (animals and plants) in Repeat motifs, symbolic role and decorations are one of the pre-Islam, was used in the aftermath of Islam with the art of main subjects in Iranian art.

The Role of Climate and Culture on the Formation of Courtyards in Mosques Hossein Soltanzadeh* Associate Professor of Architecture, Faculty of Art and Architecture, Tehran Central Branch, Islamic Azad University, Tehran, Iran Received: 23/05/2015; Accepted: 30/06/2015 Abstract The process regarding the formation of different mosque gardens and the elements that contribute to the respective process is the from the foci point of this paper. The significance of the topic lies in the fact that certain scholars have associated the courtyard in mosques with the concept of garden, and have not taken into account the elements that contribute to the development of various types of mosque courtyards. The theoretical findings of the research indicate that the conditions and instructions regarding the Jemaah [collective] prayers on one hand and the notion of exterior performance of the worshiping rites as a recommended religious precept paired with the cultural, environmental and natural factors on the other hand have had their share of founding the courtyards. This study employs the historical analytical approach since the samples are not contemporary. The dependant variables are culture and climate while the form of courtyard in the jame [congregational] mosque is the dependent variable. The statistical population includes the jame mosques from all over the Islamic world and the samples are picked selectively from among the population. The findings have demonstrated that the presence of courtyard is in part due to the nature of the prayers that are recommended to say in an open air, and in part because this is also favoured by the weather in most instances and on most days. -

IJBPAS, September, 2015, 4(9), Special Issue: 343-352 ISSN: 2277–4998 THE ROLE AND FUNCTION OF MEDIUM-SIZEDCITIES IN TERMS OF DEVELOPMENT AND REGIONAL BALANCE (CASE STUDY: MARAGHEH CITY) 1DR. BASHIR BEIGBABAEI, 1HOMEYRA HAGHI* 1Department of Geography and Unban Planning, Malekan Branch, Islamic Azad University, Malekan, Iran 2MA student Department of Geography and Unban Planning, Malekan Branch, Islamic Azad University, Malekan, Iran *Corresponding Author: E Mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT The strategy of intermediate cities and its role in development and regional balance is among paradigms affecting spatial and regional development having been presented in the economy of the third world since 1970. Neglecting the role of intermediate cities and tending to centralization in one or several limited regions have resulted in engendering challenges such as polar spatial structures and the severe imbalances in the regional system of developing countries and consequently Iran. The objective of the present study is to investigate the effect of the Intermediate City of Maragheh in the economic structure of East Azerbaijan Province and evaluating the performance of this city in the surrounding region and its own influencing area. The research method was a descriptive-analytical one and for evaluating and analyzing the role and function of this city, statistical models and economic analyses of the region such as Shift- Share Model, Spatial coefficient, etc. were sued. The results obtained for the population model indicate that this city, due to having positive and high elasticity in attracting the population of the region, has a significant effect on balancing and distributing population equally in East Azerbaijan Province. -

July. 2016 Abstract The research analyses the essence and relationships between the variables in the context of light and architecture, and aims to develop the knowledge and design based on the light and recognition of the space, an effort was made to analyze the role of light in quality of the Iranian architecture and three samples of the most precious mosques were selected as the instances of this phenomenon, eg., Nasir-Al-Molk Mosque in Shiraz, Sheikh Lotf-Allah Mosque in Isfahan and Vakil Mosque in Shiraz. Light processing has different specifications in each of the mentioned mosques, as it is applied in a specific way which deserves consideration and it represented a number of considerable beautiful aspects. According to the valuable role of light on definition and interpretation of the space, it is assumed that: light has a great value in the quality of the spaces in the architecture of Iranian mosques and the fact it plays an effective role in enhancing the “quality” of the architectural space and to improve the “spatial -
