Systems thinking approach to community buildings resilience considering utility networks, interactions, and access to essential facilities
The functionality of community buildings not only depends on the damage to individual
buildings but also on the interactions with other infrastructure systems. This paper …

Modeling the interdependency between buildings and the electrical distribution system for seismic resilience assessment
The complexity of large-scale power networks, together with their increasing ageing and
obsolete design, implies an intrinsic fragility with respect to natural disasters, such as strong …
