  • 8(b) i wrote about system analysis, locational analysis, social physics and different type of model under each of them.
    8(c) started with neomalthusian, explained the model with the standard model graph and then the critque.
    In 8b) the question was more about discussing critically the "way" qr provided the foundation of making models and methods ..not only describing the models which were developed during the phase ..
    I think basically it was criticism of QR as whole with some language twist
    Exactly ..thats what I meant with the ways the QR used

    Changing urban morphology ques: mentioned two forces 1) centripetal: pul migration, agglomeration of economic activities,
    conurbation

    2) centrifugal: ruf, urban sprawl and push migration-counter urbanization

    Discussed all of them under separate subheadings
  • Changing rural morphology: firstly 1 page discussed regionally the types and patterns of settlements

    Then, how now things changing, eg. a)Naga villages have shifted from hilltops to foothills making shoe horse pattern

    b) villages near transport arteries are extending along them making linear patterns

    c) villages near cities, impacted by ruf and sprawl has changed their economic activities and occupation of residing population

    Mentioned some 2 3 more points, yaad nhi aa rhe

    Urban morphology question I also discussed on same lines. Rural morphology: I think it is about morphology means street lanes, build up area, building material used, k.l. Singh religious ritual model and secular model.
