Flood Risk Management and Optimization of Flood Control Infrastructure in the Context of Resilient Cities

Abstract

In the context of resilient cities, flood risk management and the optimization of flood control infrastructure hare key issues for urban sustainable development. Climate change and urbanization have increased the frequency and severity of floods, prompting governments and researchers to focus on flood risk assessment and management. This paper comprehensively analyzes the research status at home and abroad in the fields of resilient cities and flood control infrastructure, points out that the concept of resilient cities provides new ideas for flood risk management, and emphasizes that urban planning and design with resilience as the core should be integrated into the construction of flood control facilities. At the same time, the study found that the existing flood control infrastructure is vulnerable to sudden flood events and urgently needs to improve its resilience through optimized design and scientific management. Through the assessment of flood risks, the vulnerable links of the city in the face of floods can be identified, and corresponding optimization strategies can be proposed. The paper aims to contribute to the understanding of resilient city development, promote the scientific planning and rational allocation of flood control infrastructure, thus enhancing disaster resistance and adaptability of the city, and ultimately achieving sustainable development goals.
