Risk Assessment of Terrestrial Transportation Infrastructures Exposed to Extreme Events

Keeping transport links open in adverse conditions and being able to restore connections quickly after extreme events are important and demanding tasks for infrastructure owners/operators. This paper is developed within the H2020 project SAFEWAY, whose main goal is to increase the resilience of terr...
