摘要：Water, energy and food are basic resource for sustainable urban development. It has been acknowledged that there are numerous complex non-linear interconnections among them, or called WEF-Nexus, meaning that any strategies that focus on single resource would lead to unexpected results. As one of the most effective tools for simulating the complex system, Agent-Based Modeling has a unique advantage in optimizing WEF allocation and promoting its use efficiency at the city level. Basing on characters of various agents in a complex urban system, this paper first divides various agents into three types: household, firm and government, which are all living in the same urban space and sharing independent but competitive demand for WEF resources respectively. And then under the guidance of behavior rules for household, firm and government agents, Netlogo programmable modeling environment are proposing to explore the complex interaction between those three agents in the process of WEF production and consumption. On the basis of WEF-Nexus with different agents, we finally build a new Multi-Agent Model, and conclude that by setting some sustainable development goals, this model can effectively simulate the urban WEF consumption pattern and its dynamic changes with the evolution of time.
