متن کاملVulnerability and Robustness of Civil Infrastructure Systems to Hurricanes
Civil infrastructure systems play an important role in community resilience. Without proper functioning of the infrastructure, especially power delivery, society will not recover quickly from disruptive events, such as hurricanes. In this paper, the vulnerability, response, and recovery of selected infrastructure at the system level for several hurricanes in the USA are modeled using geostatist...

Building on the literature review and the results of the author’s prior wo...
متن کاملExtreme Events and the Sustainability of Civil Infrastructure Systems
The impact of extreme events is in reality the interaction among three systems; the natural environment, the human community, and the built environment the infrastructure that supports human activities. The sustainability of our infrastructure depends upon knowledge of the natural environment – for example, the research on global warming and its impact on meteorological events such as storms, d...
