Multiple Hazards and Social Vulnerability for the Denver Region
Publication: Structures Congress 2017
Abstract
Many urban areas throughout the world are subjected to cascading failures due to the interdependent nature of infrastructure systems. As complex networks have developed they have magnified existing levels of vulnerability in densely populated areas. These interdependencies must be identified and mitigated against. The Denver regional area is used as an example in this study showing several of the physical and geographical interdependencies. The criticality of these interdependencies is shown in terms of potential stressors prevalent in the Denver region.
