Mr. Haowei Duan is a researcher whose work focuses on urban networks and the functional networks of urban agglomerations, with particular attention to the spatial organization and interactions of cities in China. His research integrates urban geography, complex systems, and network science to examine how population mobility shapes urban network structures and regional development patterns. By leveraging large-scale mobility data and quantitative modeling approaches, he seeks to uncover the mechanisms driving intercity connectivity, functional specialization, and spatial coordination within urban agglomerations. Mr. Duan is the author of the journal article “Modeling China’s Urban Network Structure: Unraveling the Drivers from a Population Mobility Perspective,” published in Systems. His work contributes to a deeper understanding of urban systems and provides empirical insights relevant to urban planning, regional policy, and sustainable metropolitan development.
