Synopsis

The safety and serviceability of in-service structures and infrastructure systems are often threatened by natural hazards. Owners and decision makers are especially concerned about the resilience of an asset (structure or infrastructure), namely its ability to be in readiness for, to absorb, recover from, and adapt to disruptive events. Climate change is increasingly producing nonstationary natural hazards such as wind hazards, and concurrent multiple hazards may result in especially severe performance reduction. This book focuses on hazard modelling and resilience methods, and their application in engineering cases. It presents the state of the art of the theory, methodology, and applications related to infrastructure resilience, and offers practical approaches to enhancing resilience for engineers, policy makers, and researchers.
