Earthquake is one of the natural disasters on earth that causes a lot of economic and human losses every year. Although this natural hazard cannot be predicted with current science, use of technology and technological progress, makes it possible to plan properly to reduce damages. These measures are the result of recognizing and examining the potential areas of the earth where there is a possibility of earthquake risk, and by taking advantage of it and analyzing them, the necessary preparation for earthquake prevention or control can be obtained. In this purpose, the geographic information system plays a significant role in the integration of related maps. In this research, the impact of various factors on the occurrence of earthquakes and the zoning of earthquake risk in Kermanshah county has been investigated. In order to achieve this, the fuzzy hierarchical analysis method was used to obtain the weight of each of the studied criteria and the degree of their impact, and by obtaining the small values of the weight of each criterion, a fuzzy weight map of the criteria was prepared and finally a risk map. The acceptability of different areas of Kermanshah county has been obtained. The results show that 15.6% of Kermanshah county is at risk of earthquake with "high" degree and 16.7% with "very high" degree. Also, 18.2 percent of the villages in Kermanshah county are at risk of earthquake with "very high" degree and 17.7 percent with "high" degree, and in the urban area of Kermanshah, the risk of earthquake with "very high" degree is equal to 6.3%. And it covers 18.1% of the area of Kermanshah city with "high" grade. Manuscript profile

This study is an applied research with a descriptive-analytical approach. It is also a survey research. The research population included 300 people and the sample size (169 people) was selected through the Cochran formula by directly referring to the selected parking lots. Cronbach's alpha coefficient (0.833) has been calculated for the reliability of the questionnaire, which indicates the accuracy, reliability, and internal consistency of the results. Seven indicators: area capacity, availability of facilities, access status, security status, beauty status, entrance fee, and cleaning status were selected to evaluate the busy parking lots located in the study area and necessary analysis was done using shannon entropy. The results showed that Karun, Refah, Alireza, and Azadegan parking lots are ranked first second, and last with the final priority coefficients of 0.0574 and 0.0504, respectively. Manuscript profile

The coastal cities and of course port and harbors due to their economic, transit and tourism situations are always exposed to attacks and threats from the enemy. Passive defense is among approaches through which ,from one hand , makes the deterrence role of ports increase and their vulnerability decrease either. Regarding the importance of the topic, this research, using five indicators (architecture and design, structure, facilities and equipment, proximity and access, information security and cyber network) and 104 sub-indexes, aims to shed light on the significance assessment of passive defense in harbor of imam khomeini. This research is applied and the research method is survey evaluation with emphasis on the questionnaire. The statistical population includes the employees and experts of the port administration and some officials of the institutions of the city of Bandar Imam Khomeini and the determined sample size is 100 people. The Kolmogorov-Smirnov test was used to check the data distribution normality, and to check the status of the research variables, structural equation modeling was done using the Partial Least Squares (PLS) method via SMARTPLS software, and Friedman's model was used to rank the variables. The findings from the PLS test results revealed that the facilities and equipment index has the highest impact (0.873) and the information security and cyber network index has the lowest impact (0.737).
