ABSTRACT
Disaster or hazards can be broadly divided into three categories viz. Hydrological or climate related Geological and Technological hazards. There exists a necessity to make communities resilient in order to support their development. Community resilience is the ability of a community to utilize the available resources in the management of adverse situation. A region or a city is said to be resilient if it can reduce the negative consequences of disasters or hazards and go back to pre-disaster state in a minimal period of time. Characteristics such as urbanization, geography, and land scarcity all make a city less resilient. Extend of impacts of disasters also depends on the urbanization rate, type of disaster occurred. In these alarming times of climate change, resulting in various hazards, we need to organise our cities and other regions such that they are resilient in nature and consequences are the least due to the hazard. Studies show different techniques which help in resilience assessment considering the dimensions or factors of resilience framework. Interest in community resilience quantification is evolving along with infrastructure resilience. This study does a bibliometric analysis of research articles on community resilience and infrastructure resilience using R Studio and Biblioshiny softwares.
