چکیده:
Earthquakes are natural disasters that have devastating effects on human societies, especially in urban areas. Given the rapid population growth and the uncontrolled development of cities, the risk of earthquakes and the resulting damage in metropolises, particularly in areas with unsafe buildings and weak infrastructural systems, has increased. In this article, the earthquake risk in metropolises is analyzed, and the factors affecting the intensity and scope of its impact on populations and infrastructure are examined. Furthermore, various solutions for reducing human and financial losses caused by earthquakes in urban areas, such as improving building structures, upgrading warning systems, and managing post-earthquake crises, are analyzed. The aim of this article is to identify the challenges and opportunities of crisis management in the face of earthquakes and to suggest practical solutions for strengthening urban resilience.

Earthquake, crisis management, metropolises, earthquake hazard, damage reduction, urban infrastructure, urban resilience, warning systems, resistant buildings, crisis planning Introduction As one of the most destructive natural disasters, earthquakes have always been considered a serious threat to human societies, especially in urban areas.
In recent years, given the rapid growth of the urban population and the uncontrolled development of cities, the risk of earthquake occurrence and the resulting damages in metropolises, particularly in countries located in seismic zones, has increased significantly (Mousavi et al.
Research Background Many studies have been conducted in the field of earthquake hazard analysis and crisis management in urban areas, which indicates the importance and necessity of studying this topic, especially in countries like Iran that are located in earthquake-prone regions.
In general, the research background shows that despite numerous investigations in the field of earthquake hazards and crisis management, there is still a need for more precise studies and continuous updating of these studies to effectively address the reduction of risks and damages caused by earthquakes in urban areas.
The importance of this research in analyzing earthquake hazards and crisis management in urban areas, especially in metropolises, is more evident than ever due to the frequent occurrence of earthquakes in different parts of the world and especially in countries like Iran, which are located in seismic zones.
