Overview of a Framework to Engineer Infrastructure Resilience through Assessment, Management, and Governance
Publication: Lifelines 2022
ABSTRACT
Infrastructure system resilience prior to or following disruptions due to natural or technological hazards is intimately linked with and supports community resilience. This paper presents a framework, consisting of eight key elements, connecting processes and tools for assessment, management and governance related decisions, and the community outcomes. It recognizes infrastructure as interdependent socio-technical systems capable of achieving resilience through optimized flow and provision of services to users that satisfy community-level objectives by reducing social and economic losses while enhancing community wellbeing. In this paper, an overview of the framework is provided.
