An Exponential Universal Formula and Evaluation Model of Sustainable Development for Cities
城市可持续发展的指数普适公式及评价模型

In order to study an evaluation model of sustainable development for cities, analysis was performed to study the features of indicator system of community, economy and environment. Based on the genetic algorithms optimum, an exponential universal formula of single indicator was proposed. Evaluation model of sustainable development about the coordinative development of community, economy and environment was developed using weightting method combining the general contrast algorithm with analytic hierarchy process for different structure. The evaluation results of sustainable development for examples using this model showed that the exponential formula of single indicator based on parameters optimum and the evaluation model are not only simple and practical, but also comparisonable, realizable and general.
