OverviewCivil Structures and Infrastructure Systems: From Reliability to Resilience examines the reliability and resilience of individual structures, outlining their similarity/difference through a unified framework. Subsequently, the reliability and resilience of infrastructure systems consisting of interacting multiple components are considered, with an emphasis on the wide applicability of reliability and resilience theories in engineering practice.
