Affected by the rapid progress of urbanization and the climatic environment, cities must continue to improve their resilience to enhance their “disaster-resistance” and “self-recovery” capabilities to cope with various types of disasters. Based on the urban resilience framework proposed by the Rockefeller Group, this study selected cities such as New York, New Orleans, Fukushima, Da Nang, and Athens as typical cases to analyze their resilience plans in detail, and discussed the construction of urban resilience evaluation models and their main impact factors, found that infrastructure resilience and social resilience are the two most important dimensions of urban resilience. At the same time, combined with the smart city index systems (standards) of Shanghai and Guangdong, China, to further optimize the evaluation model of urban resilience, and exploratively propose a set of urban resilience evaluation index systems suitable for urban applications in China.
