Geography and Environmental Hazards 24 (2018) Resilience Assessment of Physical Urban Areas against Earthquake: The Case of old neighborhoods in Bushehr) Rasoul Heidaria1, Younes Gholamib, Zahra Salimic a Department of Geography, University of Kashan, Kashan, IRAN.
Increasing the Resilience of cities against natural disasters, especially earthquake, is effective in reducing losses and in the recovery period of the communities.
There are some areas in the old regions of Bushehr with high vulnerability against natural disasters (particularly earthquake) which lead to increased vulnerability of their residents when catastrophe occurs.
4. Results and Discussion To examine the hypothesis, the status of physical Resilience in old areas of Bushehr was investigated based on the results of structural equation modeling analysis.
It was shown that the quality of buildings had the most significant effect on physical Resilience against earthquake, among other physical indicators of old areas in Bushehr.
It was hypothesized that among the physical Geography and Environmental Hazards 24 (2018) indicators of old areas in Bushehr, the quality of buildings has the greatest effect on physical Resilience against earthquake.
The results showed that the status of the Resilience in old areas of Bushehr is not good in terms of physical indicators.
Threats due to environmental, climatic and tectonic hazards (flood, earthquakes and droughts) using Arc GIS (case study: Bushehr).
Developing the ecological sustainable strategies to increase urban environmental resilience: (Case study: Districts 1 and 3 of Tehran municipality).
Investigating the role of land use planning in improving seismic resilience of urban communities (Case study of Sabzevar city).
