Summary: Railway systems are crucial for modern societies, but susceptible to disruptions and delays, making delay spreading hard to predict. This study analyzes delay structures in four European countries' railway systems using a graph-based model and spectral clustering, providing boundaries for local decision-making and risk assessment.

Summary: In this paper, an integrated distribution system restoration (DSR) framework and optimization models are proposed to quickly restore power loads by coordinating repair crews, distribution systems, and emergency communication. Case studies validate the effectiveness of the proposed models and highlight the importance of considering emergency communication vehicles (ECVs) and cyber-physical interdependencies in DSR.

Summary: A three-stage resilient unit commitment model is proposed to enhance the power system's resilience against typhoon events by considering uncertainty in typhoon paths and line outages. Resources are coordinated based on worst-case scenarios for each possible typhoon path, involving preventive control, emergency control, and restoration stages. The model is tested on the IEEE 118-bus system and a real-world provincial system to validate its effectiveness.

Summary: Understanding the impact of disruptions on infrastructure systems, households, and businesses is crucial for assessing the resilience of urban systems. The study presents a framework for modeling interdependencies between households, businesses, and infrastructure systems, and explores the cost of 8 disruption scenarios in a specific area of Singapore. Results confirm that multi-system failures have the largest impact on urban areas, and disruptions disproportionately affect small vulnerable areas. Additionally, disruptions to utility systems are found to be more costly than to easily reconfigurable businesses or transportation networks, with key factors influencing the application of the framework identified for future research.

Summary: This paper provides a comprehensive literature review on the application of complex network theories in resilience evaluation and enhancement of modern power systems. It decomposes resilience into structural and operational aspects, discussing structural resilience through graph modeling and analyzing static and dynamic characteristics, and investigating operational resilience through the progression of preventive, corrective, and restorative strategies in extreme events. It also extends the discussion to multilayer networks as modern power systems are increasingly interconnected with communication networks and other energy carriers. Overall, complex network theories are found to be effective in understanding and improving the structural and operational resilience of modern power systems.

Summary: A novel evaluation methodology combining Markov model and dynamic Bayesian networks is proposed to assess system resilience under the influence of various external disasters. The method establishes an external disaster model, obtains system performance, and calculates resilience value through the integral of the performance curve. An example of its application in subsea blowout preventers demonstrates its effectiveness.

Summary: The resilience of infrastructure is crucial in reducing disaster risk and evaluating recovery time after catastrophic events, with Downtime (DT) being a key parameter to measure infrastructural seismic resilience. This paper proposes a Bayesian Network (BN) probabilistic approach to evaluate infrastructure DT post-earthquake, with three scenarios demonstrating the methodology's effectiveness despite uncertain parameters. The methodology can support decision-makers in managing and minimizing earthquake impacts, as well as in promptly recovering damaged infrastructure.
