This paper proposes a mathematical framework for optimal retrofit and recovery strategies of bridge networks. The pre-earthquake and postearthquake management of the highway systems is addressed considering performance objectives based on seismic resilience and life-cycle costs. Structural capacity of vulnerable bridges and traffic performance of the transportation network are investigated accounting for the effects of aftershocks by state-dependent fragility curves informing cumulative damage scenarios. Optimal intervention sequences are identified under uncertainties related to bridge damage levels and mainshock–aftershock sequences based on a biobjective optimization problem aiming to maximize network resilience and minimize costs associated with pre-event retrofit and postrepair restoration activities.

Abstract

This paper proposes a mathematical framework for optimal retrofit and recovery strategies of bridge networks. The pre-earthquake and postearthquake management of the highway systems is addressed considering performance objectives based on seismic resilience and life-cycle costs. Structural capacity of vulnerable bridges and traffic performance of the transportation network are investigated accounting for the effects of aftershocks by state-dependent fragility curves informing cumulative damage scenarios. Optimal intervention sequences are identified under uncertainties related to bridge damage levels and mainshock–aftershock sequences based on a biobjective optimization problem aiming to maximize network resilience and minimize costs associated with pre-event retrofit and postrepair restoration activities.
