Critical infrastructures such as transportation, power, telecommunication, water supply, and
hospitals play a vital role in effectively managing post-disaster responses. The resilience of …

Road networks are considered as one of the most important transport infrastructure systems,
since they attain the economic and social prosperity of modern societies. For this reason, it is …

Earthquake safety paradigms in urban scenarios can be represented by the following:
buildings response to ground shaking; possibility to evacuate urban areas; rescuers' …

Road networks are regarded as the backbone of transportation systems, which play an
important role in the social and economic prosperity of societies. Due to this reason, it is …

Due to their widespread and continuous expansion, transportation networks are

During seismic emergencies in historical urban scenarios, evacuation paths can suffer
significant damages and modifications due to both extrinsic (ie: building facing the path) and …

The main aim of this article is to shed light on the establishment of more resilient road
networks, which can operate and interact regularly with the surrounding complex‐built …

After a large-scale earthquake, the road is susceptible to get blocked by liquefaction or
building collapse, and that results in disaster-relief difficulty. This study adopted two …

During earthquake emergencies in existing city-centers, streets network permits inhabitants
to reach safe areas, and rescuers to access damaged zones and help population. However …

Through this paper we propose and test a GIS framework that addresses the issue of
seismic risk due to urban road network failure. The approach relies on full GIS integration …
