A city will be called resilient, when it is simultaneously capable of providing a balance between ecosystem and human functions, being flexible, having the power to be adaptive to uncertainty and unexpected events, as well as maintaining and investing on the existing potential opportunities. Reducing the resilience in the cities has increased the vulnerability of the city system; As a result the small disruptions and shocks might lead to the crisis. Therefore, via considering the importance of the subject, the research seeks to promote a theoretical knowledge in the area of urban environments resilience. Method: In this study, descriptive and analytical research method has been used to identify and compile effective elements on urban resilience and from tools such as observation, questionnaire and statistical analysis tool of structural equations Lisrel. Findings: The results obtained from the LISREL software indicate that the institutional and administrative, economic, social, as well as physical and infrastructural indices with the respective direct and positive coefficients of 0. 96, 0. 64, 0. 24, and 0. 13 are among the most important indicators in urban resilience. Conclusion: The institutional-administrative index, which is the most influential component between resiliency elements, has a logical and meaningful correlation in relation to other components and the most correlation between the institutional-administrative indexes and the economic index is 0. 62 that As a key factor, has a lot of influence on the other three indices and by strengthening this index, it is possible to improve and enhance other effective indicators on urban resilience in order to finally improve the overall level of urban resilience in the region.

Methods: This research is a quantitative and qualitative research and it is descriptive and exploratory in terms of purpose. In addition to collecting information related to library and text studies, semi-structured interviews with experts were also used. From the thematic analysis, through the fuzzy feedback fuzziness, the identified factors are presented in the model. Then the validity of the model is evaluated and the effect of the four factors on the dependent variable is measured. Gap analysis is performed to identify injuries. Results: In the qualitative part using semi-structured interview and studying different texts by theme analysis method 33 subcategories were identified and classified into four behavioral, communication, knowledge and institutional categories and in the quantitative part to fuzzify the perspective of triangular fuzzy numbers ( 9-degree) spectrum was used and then a questionnaire was developed based on the presented model and distributed to a population of 133 (sample 98). The fit of the research model was positive and greater than zero and the value of GOF was 0. 611 indicating the quality of the model. . Thereafter, four hypotheses did not rule out the significant impact of the four knowledge, behavioral, communication and institutional damages with strategic planning with a probability of 0. 95. Finally, the analysis of the existing and desirable gap was made by distributing other questionnaires to the target population.

Of the 33 indices identified, 7 were out of favor and no injuries were identified. Given the gap between the status quo and other factors, strategic planning disadvantages have been identified and related strategies have been proposed.

Background and Objective: A look at past research shows that quality work has been done in the field of urban economics and management and its research background is profound. But little work has been done on the cost to municipalities of small towns due to the lack of funding for civil projects. This research is in this regard. The purpose of this research is to empirically analyze the costs imposed on a small town, Ajin, in the year 1396 due to the non-allocation of civil credits.
