Infrastructure resilience curves: Performance measures and summary metrics

Craig Poulin et al.

Summary: The research critically reviewed resilience curve performance measures and summary metrics to provide practitioners and researchers with a common vocabulary for improving the use of resilience curves. In addition to providing a taxonomy, it synthesized a framework for examining resilience analysis assumptions and made recommendations, including broader adoption of productivity measures.

Effects of Infrastructure Service Disruptions Following Hurricane Irma: Multilevel Analysis of Postdisaster Recovery Outcomes

Diana Mitsova et al.

Summary: The study analyzed the impact of infrastructure disruptions on household, urban, and community recovery through a four-level hierarchical structure, identifying significant predictors such as severity of damage, number of days without electricity, and access to health services. The findings highlight the importance of regional and urban/rural factors in household recovery, supporting the need for further interdisciplinary studies to reduce vulnerability to power outage-related disruptions.

Vulnerable populations and social media use in disasters: Uncovering the digital divide in three major US hurricanes

Jennifer S. Dargin et al.

Summary: This study conducted an exploratory analysis of empirical household survey data on the information seeking, sharing activity, and perceptions of information reliability on social media platforms across different population groups during three major hurricane storm events in the United States between 2017 and 2018. The findings suggest significant associations between social media use and socioeconomic factors, as well as the influence of social media in creating or dismantling the digital divide during disasters.

Susceptibility curves for humans: Empirical survival models for determining household-level disturbances from hazards-induced infrastructure service disruptions

Amir Esmalian et al.

Summary: This study developed survival models based on empirical data from household surveys to determine household-level disturbances related to infrastructure service disruptions during disasters. The susceptibility curves can be implemented to assess the reliability and resilience of infrastructure systems.

Determinants of Risk Disparity Due to Infrastructure Service Losses in Disasters: A Household Service Gap Model

Amir Esmalian et al.

Summary: By analyzing the household service gap model, it is possible to identify risk disparities in extreme weather events. Survey results show that factors such as household needs, preparedness level, and social capital can impact the level of tolerance towards service disruptions, while sociodemographic characteristics like race and residence type influence the level of hardship experienced by affected households.

Quantifying community resilience based on fluctuations in visits to points-of-interest derived from digital trace data

Cristian Podesta et al.

Summary: This research utilized population activity data to quantify the impact on the Houston metropolitan area during Hurricane Harvey in 2017, revealing variations in resilience metrics across different categories of POIs. Areas with lower resilience metrics were also more prone to extensive flooding.

Infrastructure resilience to navigate increasingly uncertain and complex conditions in the Anthropocene

Mikhail Chester et al.

Summary: Infrastructure are facing three main trends: accelerating human activities, increasing uncertainty in social, technological, and climatological factors, and increasing complexity of the systems themselves and environments in which they operate. Resilience theory can help infrastructure managers navigate this increasing complexity, by considering adaptation and transformation. Additionally, agility and flexibility in physical assets and governance, as well as reorienting sensemaking capabilities, are essential in ensuring core systems keep pace with a changing world.
