The Resilience Performance Index, a Fuzzy Logic Approach to Assess Urban Resilience

Today, the issue of ensuring the sustainable development of socio-economic systems is more relevant than ever. The study used an interdisciplinary approach. Based on this approach, it is proposed to interpret the stability and sustainable development of the socio-economic system in the context of global instability as its ability to recover and reorient itself after the impact of external global shocks and challenges due to adaptive internal drivers. The practical implementation of the author's methodological approach to assessing the sustainability and sustainable development of the socio-economic system on the basis of a retrospective section reveals that the most negative impact of the global financial and economic crisis and hostilities was in the context of actual GDP per capita. decline over the past 15 years. The article highlights the main factors for reducing the stability and sustainable development of the socioeconomic system in the context of the shock of the COVID-19 pandemic. The study has its limitations, as it was carried out to a greater extent in the context of the realities and indicators of Ukraine. Similar analyzes are planned for other countries in the future.

“…Resiliency is another popular index that has been used to assess and evaluate developments around the world. Despite the abundant literature on resiliency, there are relatively few studies on the actual measurement of disaster resilience or developing resilience measurement frameworks and indices which is mainly because of the lack of a unified definition [21,22]. Also, the type of disaster is another challenge in resiliency studies: there is not a consensus in the literature on whether this index should be an overall score or a disaster-specific one [23,24].…”

Experts always seek for improving the development and management of multidimensional urban systems, including those of sustainability, smartness, and resiliency. These dimensions are the main keywords in related research to model and predict better development in urban and regional areas; there are overlapped concepts, common attributes, and parallel processes in existing indices designed for each of those keywords, which might not be an ideal option for the status quo. Therefore, there is a need to find a balance between these concepts/indices and identify an integrated development strategy that addresses smart, resilient, and sustainable development demands. For this purpose, first of all, attributes and themes used to develop the development indices are collected from the recent literature. Secondly, a semantic text mining technique is used to discover commonly used attributes among the collected ones. Thirdly, Principal Component Analysis (PCA) is used to investigate the correlation between the selected attributes to reduce or merge similar attributes. Fourthly, after collecting data and normalizing calculated scores for each LGA, a k-means clustering method is used to identify LGAs with similar development behaviour. And finally, the developed index is implemented in Victoria, Australia as a case study that includes 79 regional and urban local government areas. Evaluation of the results (comparing the results with two existing studies) indicated the success of the proposed index in bringing smartness, resiliency and sustainability indices under a united and comprehensive development index.

“…In recent academic research, city sustainable evaluation can be seen as a fuzzy decision-making problem [20]. In this study, the fuzzy extent analysis method (FEAM) is employed for analyzing the city dwellers as an empirical evaluation.…”

Sustainable development of cities was among the goals aimed by either country or region since the 1980s. Ho Chi Minh City was ranked as the most rapid urban development in Vietnam, which challenged the accommodation of the necessities for a pleasant life in a city with limited resources, including housing, public infrastructure, a clean environment, security, safety, employment, and other necessities. The purpose of this study was to measure city sustainability by employing fuzzy decision analysis. A systematic review of the literature has provided the theoretical framework for measuring sustainable cities. Further consent on the criteria of a sustainable city in the context of Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam was confirmed based on the evaluation of thirty experts with academic and practical experience in the field. The research findings provided the measurement model of city sustainability at three levels with three main criteria at 2nd level and twenty sub-criteria at 3rd level. The research results revealed that there is great consent for city performance and priority ranking in terms of the social dimension. However, great conflict in the importance and performance of economic and environmental dimensions has been found. This practically implied the strategies for bridging the gap between the city’s actual criteria performance and priority ranking in target city sustainability.
