Transport infrastructure is the backbone of the economy and society, while at the same time
is exposed to multiple hazards. Previous natural disasters, including earthquakes, had a …

Resilience curves are used to communicate quantitative and qualitative aspects of system
behavior and resilience to stakeholders of critical infrastructure. Generally, these curves …

Bridges are the most vulnerable assets of our transport networks. They are
disproportionately exposed to and hit by multiple natural hazards, with flooding being the …

In recent years, significant advances have been accomplished in the fields of modeling,
