Abstract

Resilience is quickly becoming a widespread method of assessing how a system, community or society responds to and recovers from a hazard. Hazards considered in this study include extreme weather and climate hazards such as extreme rainfall, flooding etc. Once ‘rare’ extreme weather events are now becoming increasingly frequent due to climate change, bringing with them the potential to cause significant disruption to infrastructure networks. A quantitative analysis incorporating probabilistic fragility curves is presented here to assess vulnerable locations. This methodology may be expanded to determine resilience of an entire network or system. The capacity of the system to cope with any hazard may then be fully understood allowing recommendations to be made from both a global system perspective as well as at a local element level.
