Abstract: Under the principle of genetic algorithm, by using the genetic algorithm toolbox, after proving the applicability of genetic algorithm on a numerical example of 3 zones, 3-section economy of nonlinear Lowry model, the authors use this model to perform a simulated experiment on 9 zones, 3-section economy under a fan-shaped urban framework. The results show that, at first, if the residential charm of every district is at the same degree, traffic factor will play a very important role in residential structure of urban area; secondly, the district at the best traffic location owns the highest population density. Because of the limitation of land and maximization of economic goal, this type of district is the first choice to the industry which have high added value. This article shows a good explanatory ability of nonlinear Lowry model and lays a good foundation for the practical simulated research of urban.
