Developing an Assessment Methodology for Community Resilience

August 21, 2017

Author(s)

Maria Dillard

Communities can be characterized as complex systems, with resilience as an emergent property. Complex systems are systems composed of interconnected parts that exhibit emergent properties that arise from the collective and cannot be derived from the

The Science Behind Community Resilience Assessment: An Overview of the Center for Risk-Based Community Resilience Planning

August 9, 2017

Author(s)

Bruce Ellingwood, John W. van de Lindt, Therese P. McAllister

Community resilience depends on the performance of the built environment and on supporting social, economic and public institutions which are essential for re-sponse and recovery of the community following a hazard event. The social needs of a community

Further Development of a Conceptual Framework for Assessing Resilience at the Community Scale

July 25, 2017

Author(s)

Alexis Kwasinski, Royce Francis, Trainor Joseph, Cynthia Chen, Francis Lavelle

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is sponsoring the Community Resilience Assessment Methodology (CRAM) project. The CRAM project team is working in parallel with several other NIST initiatives, including: the Community Resilience

Probabilistic seismic and tsunami hazard analysis (PSTHA) conditioned on a mega-thrust rupture of the Cascadia Subduction Zone

June 15, 2017

Author(s)

Hyoungsu Park, Daniel Cox, Mohammad S. Alam, Andre Barbosa

This paper presents a framework for a probabilistic hazard assessment for the multi-hazard seismic and tsunami phenomena (PSTHA). For this work, we consider a full-rupture event along the Cascadia Subduction Zone and apply the methodology to the study area

Guide Brief 12  Short-Term Implementation Tasks

Defining the Resilience Dividend: Accounting for Co-benefits of Resilience Planning

April 6, 2017

Author(s)

Juan Fung, Jennifer Helgeson

This report presents the concept of the resilience dividend as a useful metric for community resilience planning. The report suggests defining the resilience dividend as the net co-benefit (or co-cost) of investing in enhanced resilience, in the absence of

ABSTRACT: Community resilience is the ability of a community to plan for, withstand, and recover from a natural hazard such as an earthquake or flood. Advancing community (or urban) resilience requires: (1) an understanding of how the physical
