Overview

Methodological framework reveals failure risk dynamics in deteriorating infrastructure under climate change, indicating the necessity of coupling non-stationary hazard loads and asset resistance.

Key Points

To develop a generalized risk assessment approach that simultaneously accounts for non-stationary climatic hazard loads and non-stationary infrastructure deterioration.
Formulated a model-agnostic risk assessment framework capable of coupling time-dependent hazard loading and structural capacity degradation.
Employed a discretization technique applicable across qualitative, semi-quantitative, and fully quantitative asset priority levels.
Established an integrated method to simultaneously capture shifting climatic hazards and deteriorating resistance capacity over time.
Demonstrated flexible, spreadsheet-compatible implementation adaptable to assets ranging from low-priority local facilities to critical national infrastructure.
