“…Within the spatial resilience perspective, Gharai et al. (2018) ; Ilmola (2016) ; Lu et al. (2021) contended that urban structures, particularly road and their network make cities robust/strong towards potential disruptions.…”

“…Concerning applying the principles to spatial resilience, Lu et al. (2021) argued that the spatial factors: urban blocks, land use functions, green spaces, structures, roads, transport networks and forests, landscapes, and real estate ( Assumma et al., 2021 ) combined with the principles are the epicenters for evaluating local urban spatial planning policy documents, urban spatial plans of cities, and their practical implementation through existing land uses.…”

“…Changes in workplace distribution, managing public facilities and spaces are currently vital, too, in the development of spatial policies. Computer modelling allows municipalities to investigate the relationships between travel destinations and the choice of a means of transport (Frank, 1994), as well as the behaviours related to commuting to work (Smith & Zenou, 2003), or the relationship between the spatial structure and resilience of cities (Yuwen et al, 2020). In global travel destinations, the suspension of tourist traffic resulted in the emptying of city centres, highlighting the historical importance of overtourism and its impact on residents, the local economy, the preservation of public spaces, and the destination's capacity.…”

The worldwide spread of Covid-19 infections has had a pervasive influence on cities and the lives of their residents. The current crisis has highlighted many urban problems, including those related to the functionality of urban structures, which directly affect the quality of life. Concurrently, the notion of “smart cities” is becoming a dominant trend in the discourse on urban development. At the intersection of these two phenomena, questions about the effects of Covid-19 on the future of cities arise. These are concerned with the possible roles of the pandemic in the process of urban regeneration and the development of smart solutions. The article aims to create a conceptual framework that will allow researchers to assess the influence of Covid-19-related changes on urban structures and their functionality in the following areas: city structure, connectivity and mobility, public spaces, access to green areas, and digital transformation. In the empirical part of the article, the influence of pandemic-caused changes on the development of various aspects of smart cities is discussed. The article concludes with an analysis of the effects the pandemic might have on digital urban regeneration.

“…Many scholars put forward their own viewpoint. For example, a system's resilience features should be evaluated in a wider perspective [5,6]; resilience was a method to deal with urban problems [7]; resilience was an ability of the system to absorb kinds of disturbances and acquire a balance by its own recovery [5,8]; resilience was a capacity which can absorb external pressures or uncertain and destructive forces by adaptation to the changes [9], and resilience allowed a system to adapt to changes [10,11].…”

Urban resilience and urbanization have been researched wildly by urban researchers. The coupling relationship between the level of urban resilience and urbanization is a considerable reference to assess the quality of urban development. Based on the correlation of objective index data, it theoretically explains whether the urban resilience level is coupled with the urbanization level and the degree of coupling, providing advice and wisdom for the future high-quality urban development of Hefei. Objective. To explore whether there is coupling between the urbanization level and the urban resilience level and to explore what extent of the coupling is. Research Methods. The dimensionless method was mainly used to standardize the original statistical data, the entropy method can be chosen to obtain the weight of the indexes of urbanization level and urban resilience level, and the coupling coordination model was chosen to study the degree of coupling coordination. Research conclusions. From 2011 to 2013, the coupling coordinate on degree was low. The coupling coordination level of urbanization and urban resilience was moderately unbalanced in 2011, mild disorder in 2012, and primary coordination in 2013. However, in 2014 and 2015, the situation improved a lot, and the coordination degree was intermediate coordination. From 2016 to 2019, the coupling coordination degree was in the stage of advanced coordination.
