The importance of industry and its role in a country’s economic growth has been considered as one of the most important economic issues by researchers. In the meantime, the development of industry in Yazd Ostan and the over-establishment of industries in the Yazd-Ardakan plain have caused damage to water resources and increased pollution in this region. This study aims to investigate the resilience of water resources in the Yazd Ardakan plain in terms of industry establishment. In this research, industrial development has been analyzed, at different levels, using dynamic modeling in Vensim Software in the form of system dynamics analysis. The proposed model described industrial development, and using the simulation process, its behavior has been predicted in the next years. The model simulation results showed that the lack of development of large and water-intensive industrial projects in the region would cause the lowest amount of water resources loss in the Yazd-Ardakan Plain. They were determined as effective solutions to improve the resilience of water resources in the Yazd Ardakan plain.
