“…In particular, according to Samiei and Sayafzadeh's (2016) empirical study on the WoUFs of the deteriorated fabrics of Eslamshahr city, WoUFs are featured by: a) socio-economic problems (e.g., increase of migrants who lack any ties to these regions in the place of old residents), b) environmental problems (e.g., pollution due to the concentration of business and workplace spaces), and c) architectural vulnerability and accessibility (e.g., intensive shortage of urban public services) (see also Gorjinia & Amini, 2016). Similarly, Babaei, Rahnama, Khakpoor, and Ajza Shokouhi (2018) administered a questionnaire to a sample of residents of the Samen District of Mashhad (an Iranian historical texture in an area of 321 ha), and found that physical, constructional, environmental, economic, and social/services parameters had the highest impact on worn-out urban texture.…”
