Quantification of Resilience in Geotechnical Asset Management Applications
Publication: Geo-Congress 2024
ABSTRACT
With the emerging application of geotechnical asset management (GAM) and the increasing risks due to extreme events and the aging transportation infrastructure, resilience of geotechnical assets is a critical component that should be incorporated within GAM. In this paper, we introduce a quantitative risk-based approach to define and quantify resilience at individual geotechnical assets and the resilience of a network. The proposed general definition of resilience is the ability to anticipate and prepare for changing conditions and disruptive events to enable the asset or a system of assets to withstand and recover rapidly from disruptions (without failure) by restoring an acceptable level of service and condition in a specified time frame, which can be measured using observations and/or performance models. Following the discussion about the attributes encompassed in this definition, we introduce a holistic resilience assessment framework for geotechnical asset, focusing on its application within a GAM program.
