Research Progress and Framework Construction of Urban Resilience Computational Simulation

Abstract

Simulating the dynamic process of urban resilience and analyzing the mechanism of resilience-influencing factors are of great significance to improve the intelligent decision-making ability of resilient urban planning. The purpose of this article is to implement a comprehensive literature review on the quantitative computation and simulation studies of urban resilience, investigating the characteristics of current research, including the most commonly applied methods, the most frequently space–time scales, the most popular research topics, and the most commonly involved risk types. Then, the study provides recommendations for future research: (1) research on multiple risk disturbance scenarios, (2) the computation of urban resilience from the public perspective, and (3) a computation-simulation framework with the goal of revealing the mechanism. Finally, this study constructs a resilience-computation simulation framework for resilient urban planning, which lays a foundation for the further development of urban-resilience dynamic-simulation computing and planning-scenario applications in the future.

“… You et al (2022) assessed urban resilience in Jiangsu Province based on city panel data collected from 2009 to 2018. Han et al (2022) calculated urban resilience from the public perspective and constructed a resilience-computation simulation framework for resilient urban planning, which laid a foundation for the further development of urban-resilience dynamic-simulation computing and planning-scenario applications in the future. Coaffee (2013) introduced the urban resilience theory, which has since been applied in a growing number of research areas: urban resilience is the ability of a city to withstand and bounce back from destructive challenges.…”
