Bianchi, S. (author)Recent natural disasters and climate change-induced extremes emphasize the urgent need to enhance the overall resilience of society by addressing the various hazards that buildings may face. Current design approaches recognize the need for integrated risk assessments, but studies primarily focus on existing buildings and single hazards,...journal article 2023

Sitzenfrei, Robert (author), Qiu, Mengning (author), Ostfeld, Avi (author), Savic, Dragan (author), Kapelan, Z. (author)Water distribution networks (WDNs) are a vital component of urban water infrastructure. They transport water from production sites (sources) to spatially distributed consumers (sinks). Multiobjective optimization procedures are often used to minimize construction costs and at the same time maximize the resilience of such systems, which is...conference paper 2023

Nieuwborg, A.B.D. (author), Hiemstra-van Mastrigt, S. (author), Melles, M. (author), Zekveld, Jan (author), Santema, S.C. (author)The COVID-19 pandemic exposed the existential public health and economic fragilities of the civil aviation industry. To prevent future public health disruptions, the civil aviation industry is gaining interest in becoming more “resilient” but rarely elaborates on its meaning, hampering decision-making and strategy development. When looking into...review 2023

Hussain, Ayesha (author)From 1700 onwards the natural coastal landscape of Mumbai has gone through drastic changes and has become the highly urbanized metropolis we see today. The natural landscape was that of a forest to estuarine topographical gradient. This transformation of the land has had a major impact on the city’s resiliency, impacting water systems, green...master thesis 2022

Accou, B.O.R. (author), Reniers, G.L.L.M.E. (author)Despite the systems approach to accident analysis being the dominant research paradigm and the concept of SMS being introduced in high-risk industries already for several years, accident investigation practice is still poor in analysing the basic elements that compose a safety management system (SMS) and in embracing system theory. In search of...journal article 2022

Kloosterman, Ritsche Anne (author), Herder, P.M. (author), van der Hoek, J.P. (author)Long term uncertainties in combination with long lifetime of assets of drinking water infrastructures (DWIs) and changing expectations of stakeholders make strategic decisions in drinking water infrastructures (DWIs) complex. A framework with building blocks and design spaces was developed to support these decisions. Building blocks, divided in...journal article 2022

Sun, H. (author), Yang, M. (author), Wang, Haiqing (author)Resilience is an emergent property of a system, which changes with various internal and external factors. Resilience is also a hidden property of a system that cannot be observed. Thus, experiments should be performed for a given system to measure its resilience. However, physical experiments are practically impossible. Inspired by the tensile...journal article 2022

Naghibi, M. (author), Forgaci, C. (author), Faizi, Mohsen (author)The rapid urbanization of metropolitan environments worldwide has led to increasing spatial fragmentation. Disconnected spaces have revealed spatial and social voids that reduce the adaptive capacity of a region. However, these spaces also offer latent potential for urban resilience. Accordingly, this study reveals how urban acupuncture promotes...conference paper 2022
