“…Understanding damage mechanisms of each hazard is integral to determining the best design and construction practices [4]. Most cities are exposed to multiple types of extreme events [5], sometimes simultaneously, and focusing on single events may lead to inadequate design recommendations. An improved method to estimate the probability of extreme events from independent observations was presented by Makkonen and Tikanmäki (2019) [6].…”

Recently, extreme events have highlighted their potentially tragic effects on structural and infrastructure systems. Resilience of the Community to these extreme vents is an important issue of increasing more concern for developing design methods. Such extreme events scenarios involve many uncertainties, such as the intensity, location, and period. The extreme events may include those caused by various natural or manmade hazards, such as earthquake, strong winds, fire, blast, etc. Compared to other events, earthquake and wind are particularly critical due to their significant threats to the global structure performance and more challenges for design. Researchers have recognized that proper evaluation, modeling, and assessment of the effects of extreme events are fundamental to ensure the desired performance of structures. Therefore, the concern for developing appropriate methodologies to evaluate and design structures that can withstand the effects of extreme events has become a very active field of research in recent years. Improvement of building codes and development of new strategies are needed to mitigate the disastrous effects of extreme events. This paper presents a comprehensive review of literature surrounding designing building structures for extreme events. First, a general overview of the extreme events design and different objectives of approaches is conducted. Furthermore, a review related literature surrounding designing for earthquake resistance guidelines is presented, also highlights Performance-Based Seismic Design objectives. The available literature includes many studies for the provisions included in different design codes (China, United States and Europe). A review of literature related to wind resistance design with an overview of Performance Based Wind Design of building design method for the control of winds impacting on building structures is also presented.

“…These observations are further exacerbated by the fact that greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions due to anthropogenic activities have continued to increase over time (Boden, Andres, & Marland, 2017). In fact, the impacts of climate change are being felt by our society: one of the primary manifestations of climate change being sea level rise and the increase in the frequency and severity of extreme weather events (National Climate Assessment, 2018) that is particularly impacting urban infrastructure (Wisetjindawat, Kermanshah, Derrible, & Fujita, 2017; Kermanshah, Derrible, & Berkelhammer, 2017). As a result, the body of literature on resilience has flourished, and a significant portion of it can be directly classified as climate change adaptation research.…”

The literature on climate change research has evolved tremendously since the 1990s. The goal of this study is to use text mining to review the climate change literature and study the evolution of the main trends over time. Specific keywords from articles published in the special issue “ Industrial Ecology for Climate Change Adaptation and Resilience” in the Journal of Industrial Ecology are first selected. Details of over 35,000 publications containing these keywords are downloaded from the Web of Science from 1990 to 2018. The number of publications and co‐occurrence of keywords are analyzed. Moreover, latent Dirichlet allocation (LDA)—a probabilistic approach that can retrieve topics from large and unstructured text documents—is applied on the abstracts to uncover the main topics (consisting of new terms) that naturally emerge from them. The evolution in time of the importance of some emerging topics is then analyzed on the basis of their relative frequency. Overall, a rapid growth in climate change publications is observed. Terms such as “climate change adaptation” appear on the rise, whereas other terms are declining such as “pollution.” Moreover, several terms tend to co‐occur frequently, such as “climate change adaptation” and “resilience.” The database collected and the LiTCoF (Literature Topic Co‐occurrence and Frequency) Python‐based tool developed for this study are also made openly accessible. This article met the requirements for a gold – gold JIE data openness badge described http://jie.click/badges.

“…Complex systems are dynamic networks with self-organizing properties, which emerge from operating rules that govern the interactions of socioeconomic, ecological, climatic, and technical network components [3]. Many external disturbances and disasters have negative impacts on the performance of transport infrastructure network and can lead to the disruption or failure of transport infrastructure network [4][5][6][7][8]. Transport infrastructure network still faces significant challenges in enhancing resilience to various natural hazards and manmade threats.…”

A New Approach for Measuring the Resilience of Transport Infrastructure Networks

Resilience is an important property of transport infrastructure networks. Resilient transport infrastructure networks can retain the performance in case of disturbances and quickly recover to the original performance level after the disturbances. This study proposes a new approach that can measure the resilience of transport infrastructure networks. The new approach gives a unified conceptual framework for measuring the resilience of transport infrastructure networks. A network simulation-based method is used to analyze the influential factors of transport infrastructure network resilience. A new measuring method is developed based on network diversity characteristic to quantitatively measure the system resilience and node resilience of transport infrastructure networks. China railway and air transport networks are selected as a case study to applicability of new approach. This new approach provides strong supports for academic and industrial fields to measure, analyze, enhance, and optimize the resilience of transport infrastructure networks.
