Abstract

Urban environment carrying capacity is limited. In this paper, catastrophe theory was applied in analyzing urban environmental system. Based on it, catastrophe progression method was presented to assess urban environment carrying capacity. By the evaluation of the single environmental element carrying capacity, the catastrophe progression model of Chengdu was built, and the catastrophe progression of this urban in different time was calculated. Comparing the standard, the results show that the urban comprehensive environmental carrying capacity of Chengdu is in the low level up and down from 2006 to 2011. The calculation steps of comprehensive environment carrying capacity assessment can be simplified by catastrophe progression method.
