With the rise of the resilience concept, scholars and practitioners have paid increasing
attention to resilient city, which has become a new means of co** with hazards. As the …

Every water distribution system (WDS) fails partially or completely at some point or points
during its lifetime. Measurement of reliability for a WDS under various failure conditions is …

Building resilience into today's complex infrastructures is critical to the daily functioning of
society and its ability to withstand and recover from natural disasters, epidemics and cyber …

Water utilities face a challenge in maintaining a good quality of service under a wide range
of operational management and failure conditions. Tools for assessing the resilience of …

This article discusses critical infrastructure resilience in terms of how it could be incorporated
into the existing safety and security practices, namely the ISO 31000 risk management …

When designing a water distribution system (WDS), it is imperative that the reliability of the
network is taken into consideration. It is possible to directly evaluate the reliability of a WDS …

This paper proposes a lifecycle operational resilience assessment framework of urban water
distribution networks (WDNs), taking accidents, pipe deterioration, and restoration into …

Because of the large computational burden associated with the direct assessment of
reliability, the indirect indices of reliability have recently received more attention in the …

The use of entropy and resilience indices for measuring robustness of water distribution
networks has been investigated. The effects on network performance, caused by the failure …

Water distribution networks (WDNs) are critical contributors to the social welfare, economic
growth, and public health in cities. Under the uncertainties that are introduced owing to …
