Abstract: (24 Views) |
With the expansion of urbanization and the increase in the number of large cities, especially in developing countries such as Iran, the concentration of population and the growth of environmental and economic burdens have led to the acceptance of diverse roles and functions for cities. The threat of earthquakes as one of the main problems of cities in these countries, especially in urban areas, is facing an increasing trend. In recent years, the approach of resilience instead of vulnerability has become more important. The purpose of resilience is to reduce the vulnerability of communities and strengthen their abilities to deal with risks caused by natural disasters. Analyzing the relationship between resilience and reducing the effects of earthquakes is very important, and its main emphasis is on strengthening resilience. This research aims to explore the factors affecting the strength of informal settlements against natural hazards such as earthquakes in the neighborhood of Shaheed Maghool and focuses on reducing long-term vulnerability and its relationship with development. The infrastructural and physical dimensions of resilience are examined in this research and solutions are provided to achieve its goals. For data analysis, Smart_PLS software was used to evaluate and model structural equations. The results show that as the institutional capacity decreases, the physical resilience indices change significantly.
