Disruptive events, such as earthquakes, floods, and landslides, may disrupt the service provided by transportation networks on a vast scale, as their occurrence is likely to cause multiple objects to fail simultaneously. The restoration program …
In this paper, a real option approach to determine the optimal time to execute interventions on rail infrastructure, when it is not known for certain which intervention is to be executed, is presented (i.e. the optimal intervention window). Such an …
In this paper, a probabilistic model for the determination of optimal intervention strategies (OISs) for a road link composed of multiple objects that are affected by gradual deterioration processes is investigated. The model is composed of a …
In this paper, a time-dependent deterioration forecasting model is presented. In the model the deterioration process is described by transition probabilities, which are conditional upon actual in-service duration. The model is formulated by the …
