Abstract

The objectives of this research proposal are twofold: (1) to develop network-based measures for systematically characterizing the redundancy of transportation networks, and (2) to develop computational methods for evaluating the network-based redundancy measures. The proposed research on network redundancy can be considered as a critical component in assessing network resiliency and also designing a more resilient transportation network against disruptions.
