Abstract

Urban renewal and transformation constitute a pivotal task in the transformation of old industrial cities in China in recent years. Scientific identification of their key influencing factors is of great significance for advancing sustainable development. This article takes Zibo City in Shandong Province as an example to construct an urban renewal evaluation system that includes 5 dimensions and 14 indicators. The DEMATEL-ISM method is comprehensively used to analyze the hierarchical relationship between indicators, identify the core deep factors of strategy effectiveness, economic motivation, social response, technological support, and spatial optimization, and propose differentiated renewal strategies. The research can provide theoretical reference and empirical support for the renewal and transformation of industrial cities of the same type.
