Methodical Procedure for Creating a New Methodology for Assessing the Resilience of Transport Infrastructure

摘要

An important part of risk assessment is the assessment of resilience. Resilience assessment leads to increased safety of the evaluated element. Resilience can be understood in different ways. In general, resilience is the ability of an element to resist, absorb, and adapt to adverse events. To unify the understanding of the area of resilience, it is appropriate to develop a uniform methodology for the assessment of resilience. Such a methodology can unify input and output information, thus facilitating resilience assessment. Transport and transport infrastructure are complicated technical systems that require a specific approach. This article aims to analyse the appropriate methodologies used in the assessment of resilience and to present a proposal for a uniform methodology for the assessment of resilience specific to the transport sector.
