Indicator-based resilience assessment for critical infrastructures – A review

A Safety Science focus on research in the science and technology of human industrial safety. Critical Infrastructures (CIs), as a crucial part urban technological systems, are highly correlated with safety management terms their resilience when cities facing crisis or disaster. According to many studies, indicator-based assessment has been used frequently manage CIs recent decades. Defining characterising indicators can be useful for managers safety, it could help monitor improve capacities performance CIs. In years, critical infrastructures (CIs) have damaged increasing frequency (and will so future) following natural disasters. CIs, such buildings, transportation networks power play an indispensable role our society due importance maintaining societal functions, economic organisation national defence. Therefore, popularity “critical infrastructure resilience” exploded both academic policy discourses. Indicator-based is convenient common tool understand, analyse CI scientific field. This paper produces state-of-the-art review existing resilience. After terminology presentation, which helps clarify objective this study, show: 1) two methods selecting current papers applying assess resilience; 2) analysis these based study objective. The results show that there they do not uniform standard system, means indicator system must established.
