Resilience is one of the significant concerns of cities today, especially risky cities. The weakness of urban crisis management in the face of risks leads to substantial human and financial losses. In this regard, the present study aims to provide a model for urban resilience against flood risk in Khorramabad city. The current research is applied in terms of its purpose, descriptive-analytical in terms of the method of data collection, and survey-based in terms of its execution. The research method employed is quantitative. SMART PLS software was utilized for data analysis. The findings of the research were validated using the Smart PLS software, indicating that the structure of communication arteries and river boundaries are fundamental factors in flood resilience for Khorramabad city. Khorramroud irrigation is currently facing a flood crisis. The primary cause of flooding in the Khorramroud River is the violation of its boundaries and a lack of respect for nature and the environment. Therefore, it can be inferred that until the natural resources in the country are violated and individuals don't equip and secure themselves against natural disasters, they have to experience such bitter calamities.
