Determination of Near‐Optimal Restoration Programs for Transportation Networks Following Natural Hazard Events Using Simulated Annealing

Disruptive events, such as earthquakes, floods, and landslides, may disrupt the service provided by transportation networks on a vast scale, as their occurrence is likely to cause multiple objects to fail simultaneously. The restoration program …

Deterioration Forecasting Model with Multistage Weibull Hazard Functions

In this paper, a time-dependent deterioration forecasting model is presented. In the model the deterioration process is described by transition probabilities, which are conditional upon actual in-service duration. The model is formulated by the …
