Abstract :

Background and Objective: Today with all the advances in science, disasters such as earthquakes predictors are not nearly or as unavoidable as natural disasters. City of Kermanshah, due to its location, can always face dangers such as floods, earthquakes and other natural disasters. Method: The paper study is descriptive-analytic and its purpose is to study the resilience of Kermanshah through the PROMETHEE visual software, to prioritize the effective Factors in urban Resilient, so that the elements of the Institutional - Management, Sub-structural, Physical, Social and Economical in a questionnaire. Findings: The results showed that based on a survey and interview with 42 experts, weighing the indexes and finally ranking them using the V P model. Discussion and Conclusion: According to the component ranking, region 6 with pH + 0.8333 has the highest weight and regions 1 and 2 with the weight of pH 0.2333 have the lowest priority scoring points of effective resilience criteria of Kermanshah city.
