Abstract
AbstractTo quantitatively evaluate the ability of cities to cope with shocks and disturbances, an evaluation model based on the barrel theory and resilience theory is established. Through considering the four essential components of urban resilience, including economic resilience, social resilience, ecological environmental resilience and infrastructure resilience, an urban resilience evaluation index system including 15 indicators is established. On the basis of applying the entropy method to determine the index weight, a comprehensive evaluation method based on the barrel theory is introduced to establish a comprehensive evaluation model of urban resilience and calculate its “barrel resilience index”; take the 2019 data of 11 cities in Zhejiang Province as a case study, use this model evaluation and analysis can reflect the proper urban resilience level of each city. The research results show that: urban economic resilience and infrastructure resilience are the main aspects that should be considered in evaluating urban resilience.KeywordsUrban resilienceBarrel theoryIndicatorEntropy methodChina
