Summary
This Faculty Early Career Development Program (CAREER) project advances methods for strengthening infrastructure systems against rare but high-consequence disasters such as earthquakes, wildfires, and hurricanes. Modern communities depend on interconnected systems, including hospitals, transportation networks, and electric power, yet resilience planning often treats these systems separately or focuses only on individual components. Such approaches can miss the cascading effects that arise when disruptions propagate across sectors and delay emergency response and recovery. This research address
