Q.We can recognize the regional sphere which is influenced by the advancement of the traffic facilities making use of the structures of the city-region. And with the aid of the demographic energy, we can grasp the degree of the influences.On the other hand we know that the formation of the urban complex (the Dynapolis) is an effective means for the regional development. So, the author has proposed some methods which investigate the possibility of the formation of the Dynapolis by using the structures of the city-region and by applying the concept of the demographic energy. Subsequently, the studied areas selected for the application of the proposed methods are 123 cities in Japan at the Census of 1965.
