DOI: 10.1007/s11069-017-3001-5
Abstract: Wave action during storm surge is a common cause of building damage and therefore a critical consideration when estimating structural vulnerability and mapping flood risk. Traditional depth-damage curves, however, relate building vulnerability solely to inundation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/jsyst.2020.3013959
Abstract: This article provides a framework for modeling and analysis of spatial cyber-physical power systems (CPPSs). Previous studies on structural vulnerability analysis of CPPS mainly focused on network topology without any spatial information. In this article,… read more here.
