International Conference on Infrastructure Resilience

Venue

ETH ZURICH / ZURICH, SWITZERLAND

The first International Conference on Infrastructure Resilience is a meeting place for scientists, policy makers, and infrastructure professionals to share the latest knowledge on infrastructure resilience.

Infrastructure Resilience

Resilience is still an emerging concept, and the Future Resilient Systems aims to forge and further develop it through this platform. Resilience enables systems to provide flows of services, even if assumptions about the environment or system’s behaviour become invalid.

In particular, infrastructure systems are a compound of engineered, operating organisation, and user subsystems, and infrastructure resilience will be addressed from a socio-technical systems view at this conference.

CONFERENCE TOPICS

  • Dependencies within and between infrastructure systems
  • Modelling complex infrastructure networks
  • Modelling socio-technical systems
  • Systems analysis for resilient behaviour
  • System optimization for resilient behaviour
  • Institutional arrangements to enable resilient system behaviour
  • Shaping infrastructure users’ adaptive behaviour
