Prioritizing Road Network Restorative Interventions Using a Discrete Particle Swarm Optimization
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: One of the main challenges in the postdisaster management of large transportation networks involves the determination of the priority and the level of service recovery for each damaged asset in the network. Presently, the ...
Façade Design Stages: Issues and Considerations
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Building façades play an important role in building aesthetics and in protecting the structural system and contents from deterioration due to exposure to an aggressive environment. Well-designed façades can also help improve ...
Determination of Postdisaster Restoration Programs for Road Networks Using a Double-Stage Optimization Approach
Publisher: ASCE
Abstract: Due to the fundamental role of transportation infrastructure in the functioning of societies, the speed and cost of restoring it following a disruptive event are of utmost importance. Restoring damaged infrastructure using ...
Simulation-Based Evaluation of Resilience-Enhancing Measures for Transportation Systems Subject to Hydrometeorological Hazard Events
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: This paper identifies the essential requirements for simulation-based approaches such that these approaches serve as effective decision support tools for evaluating the effectiveness of climate-adaptation measures that ...
