“…The objective of this section is not to quantify resilience. However, for a more detailed discussion of resilience quantification, interested readers can refer to existing literature (e.g., [237][238][239]) for more detailed information on how resilience can be quantified. For instance, Simonovic and Arunkumar (2016) proposed a framework that utilizes system dynamics simulation to assess the dynamic resilience of various components within a reservoir system, including the system as a whole.…”

Increasing frequency and intensification of flooding pose significant threats to critical structures, such as dams and levees. Failure of these structures can lead to substantial economic losses and significant adverse environmental and social consequences. Improving the resilience of these structures against climate-related impacts is important to avoid future risks of failure due to the potential intensification of flooding. National-level guidance on integrating resilience-based frameworks and addressing climate risks and uncertainties in existing design flood estimation methodologies for dams and levees are lacking. To address these gaps, this study first reviews projected climate change patterns for Canada and then discusses regional vulnerabilities of dams by considering significant historical floods and their consequences. Subsequently, a review of existing design flood estimation procedures, with a focus on frequency- and probable maximum flood-based approaches, is conducted to identify areas where climate change-related aspects can be integrated. By examining the challenges associated with various stages of design flood estimation procedures, the review discusses a framework for enhancing climate resiliency of dams and levees considering four pillars of resilience. Furthermore, Canadian design flood estimation practices are compared with international practices to identify areas that require attention. The study highlights the importance of a resilience-based framework in providing design and operation guidance to ensure that dams and levees are resilient to climate impacts. Policymakers and engineers can prioritize consideration of climate-resilience in the design and operation of these structures in order to safeguard communities and infrastructure from the growing risks of future floods associated with climate change.

“…Studies are conducted with dynamic, resilience-centered simulation models that provide a holistic representation of system components, various multi-hazard scenarios [36], SDMs work as managers who can implement appropriate strategies and policies in a timely manner to improve sustainability, being able to know what specific policies to use to add, adjust, or subtract [37]. Site-based assessments are effective for evaluating community performance over time and for decision makers, integrating resilience thinking into planning [38], but so far it is unclear the regulatory role used by stakeholders [39].…”

Floods are a disaster that is very detrimental and has an extensive impact, so it needs to be managed. GIS conducted this research and a dynamic system to model flood hazards and vulnerabilities in Kijang, Bintan City, and analyze flood hazards and vulnerabilities, so the purpose of this research is to map Flood Vulnerability and Resilience in Coastal Areas. The method used in this research is the Qualitative Descriptive method. Qualitative Descriptive Analysis of Survey Data and Interviews with the Community The interview data is used to validate the flood hazard analysis. Superimpose analysis using GIS, resulting in the condition of each indicator. To obtain the infiltration map, rainfall data processing, contour maps, and soil type maps are needed. Using weighting and scoring, vulnerability analysis was then analyzed, resulting in a flood-prone map. The results of this study show that high inundation caused by uncontrolled land use and flood hazards strongly influences flood proneness when the regulations are implemented or adhered to. Scenarios 1 and 2 from human resources analyzed the policy's application of Regional Regulations, which significantly regulate land use control. Local regulations are vital in regulating land use control; therefore, less flood vulnerability will occur when implemented or adhered to. Contributed to the state of mind of local regulations by providing a clearer definition and understanding, the assessment will help develop detailed risk reduction, mitigation, and management plans in determining more appropriate flood resilience indicators for policymakers.

Maritime hazardous chemical transportation accidents have the characteristics of strong suddenness, wide influence, and great harm. To analyze the ability of a maritime hazardous chemical transportation system (MHCTS) to cope with sudden disturbance events, “resilience” is introduced into MHCTS safety research. The key to studying resilience is modeling its evolutionary process. Based on the dissipative structure theory, this study analyzes the entropy flow mechanism of MHCTS safety resilience evolution. Through a statistical analysis of 197 investigation reports on maritime hazardous chemical transportation accidents, the factors influencing the safety resilience of the MHCTS were determined. The entropy value and weight of each influencing factor were calculated using the entropy method and entropy weight method, respectively. Based on this, an entropy model of the safety resilience evolution of the MHCTS was established. The evolution process falls under four categories of disturbance strengths, which were simulated using the system dynamics method. The degree of contribution of absorptive, adaptive, and restorative capacities to the improvement of system safety resilience under four disturbance conditions and the sensitivity of each influencing factor to the absorptive, adaptive, and restorative capacities were analyzed. Based on the analyses, targeted resilience improvement strategies are proposed. The research results provide a theoretical reference for the study of safety resilience mechanisms and resilience management in the MHCTS.
