Loss assessment of critical infrastructures (CIs) subject to natural hazards is fundamental to stress tests. The systemic approach that lifelines require for performance modelling is an open research topic, given their logical and physical complexity. The Work Package 4 (WP4) of STREST focused...

The STREST project developed a stress test methodology and a modelling approach to hazard, vulnerability, risk and resilience assessment of low-probability high-consequence events. The project contributes to the Sendai Framework for risk reduction, the improved protection of European and...

The urban informal settlements are particularly vulnerable to flooding events, due to both their generally poor quality of construction and high population density. An integrated approach to the analysis of flooding risk of informal settlements should take into account, and propagate, the many...
