A Strategic Planning Framework to Enhance Infrastructure Network Survivability and Functionality under Disasters Srinivas Peeta and Lili Du
Background Related Literature Problem Description Related Methodologies Bi-level Stochastic Problem Knapsack Problem Maximum Flow Shortest Path Model Network Data Analysis
Man made and natural disasters both represent
randomness
Disasters disrupt the connectivity and functionality of
transportation networks
Pre-Disaster Planning Post-Disaster Management
Previous work shows that upgrading the network would
negate this effect
Subject to budget limitations Need to optimize which links to upgrade

Centered network out-performed other
Any IP that has only one constraint Branch-and-Bound Method
Each variable (xi) must equal 0 or 1: ci/ai = benefit item i earns for each unit of resource
used by item i (larger value = better item)
To Solve: Compute all ci/ai values, put best item in
knapsack, put the second-best item in knapsack, continue until the best remaining item will fill the knapsack
Problem in which the arcs have a capacity
0 ≤ flow through each arc ≤ capacity Flow into node i = flow out of node i
Ford-Fulkerson Method – is it optimal flow
