Risk events frequently occur in "complex urban public spaces" (CUPSs) and cause serious economic losses and casualties. To reduce the risks and enhance the system resilience, this paper formulates a theoretical framework to assess the resilience of CUPSs. Resilience is defined as the ratio of preparedness to vulnerability, according to the implication of the concept. Three-level practical indicator systems were established for these two dimensions, respectively. Furthermore, a hybrid approach combining the Analytic Network Process (ANP) and the Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL) was adopted. The Chongqing West Railway Station (the Station (W)) and the Lianglukou Rail Transit Station (the Station (L)) were used for a case study. The results showed that the Chongqing West Railway Station was more resilient to risks than the Lianglukou Rail Transit Station. Therefore, the proposed theoretical framework could be applied in assessing the resilience level of CUPSs. Resilience improvement strategies can be formulated according to the assessment results. Furthermore, the practical indicators could also provide references for urban disaster management.
风险事件频繁发生在“复杂城市公共空间”(CUPSs)中,并造成严重的经济损失和人员伤亡。为了降低风险并提高系统的弹性,本文制定了一个理论框架来评估 CUPSs 的弹性。根据这一概念的含义,弹性被定义为准备程度与脆弱性的比率。为这两个维度分别建立了三级实用指标体系。此外,还采用了结合网络分析法(ANP)和决策试验与评价实验室法(DEMATEL)的混合方法。重庆西站(车站(W))和两路口轨道交通站(车站(L))被用于案例研究。结果表明,重庆西站对风险的弹性强于两路口轨道交通站。因此,所提出的理论框架可用于评估 CUPSs 的弹性水平。可以根据评估结果制定弹性提升策略。此外,实用指标也可为城市灾害管理提供参考。
