Abstract: This paper develops a model which contains agglomeration economies, time variable and is based on both demand-side and supply side considerations and microeconomic foundations. The simulation result indicates that the proposed model can dynamically describe both monocentric and polycentric evolution of urban growth depending on different given conditions. The model also captures the features of decentralization of population and dispersal of economic activities from the central cities to the suburbs.
