Abstract:Transportation networks form the backbone of economic and sustainable development in a society and need to be functional and efficient to provide appropriate services to people during their normal daily life (e.g., providing the means for travel, production logistics, and delivery of services). All transportation networks are vulnerable to disruptions such as natural disasters and/or man-made incidents (e.g., accidents) to some extent, with temporary or permanent effects. With freight networks acting as economic pipelines that distribute goods throughout a region, disruptions to the network can have widespread consequences. Thus, the vulnerability and resilience of freight networks are extremely important considerations. The ability to detect the critical components in a transportation network is fundamental to the design of resilient networks as well as making improvements in the traffic conditions in cases such as the partial or full capacity of link disruptions. The objective of this project is presenting methodologies and tools to identify the critical links and routes in the real size network. Based on the complexity of the project, different methodologies have been developed to cover all the disruption scenarios.
