This paper presents a stochastic integer program developed to determine how to schedule
inspection, damage assessment, and repair tasks so as to optimize the post‐earthquake …

This paper describes the application of a new discrete-event-simulation model of the post-
earthquake electric power restoration process in Los Angeles. The findings are that (1) Los …

This dissertation deals with the seismic performance evaluation of water supply systems. An
evaluation process is developed for simulating the seismic performance of a large …

Abstract Models that simulate postearthquake functional loss and restoration of water
distribution systems support the development and implementation of more informed …

This paper describes a discrete event simulation model of the post-earthquake restoration
process for electric power systems. The model explicitly represents the real-life restoration …

The power system is one of the most important urban lifeline engineering systems.
Identifying the damage to the power system is an important task in earthquake disaster …

A framework for dynamically updating post-earthquake functional recovery forecasts is
presented to reduce the epistemic uncertainty in the predictive model. A Bayesian Network …

This paper introduces a discrete event simulation model of post-earthquake restoration for
the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power (LADWP) water supply system, the largest …

As a result of storm‐related damage to electric power systems, customers may experience
business interruption and general inconvenience when they lose power. This chapter …

The Multidisciplinary Center for Earthquake Engineering Research (MCEER) is a national
center of excellence in advanced technology applications that is dedicated to the reduction …
