报告摘要：
We are increasingly seeing stressors in cities that cause various structure and
function of various systems to collapse. Resilience is defined as the
opportunity for systems to reach at least a pre-defined state of functionality
after a disruption. While researchers have expended a great deal of research to
understand simple models for individual infrastructure system failures, a
general framework to understand interdependence of infrastructure and social
systems and the underlying mechanisms that govern the recovery. This talk will
discuss innovative network science modeling approaches for understanding the
recovery of cities. Data from various sources including social networks and how
to unravel the complexity of these systems will be discussed. Preliminary
results from a large NSF project will be discussed. Data from Hurricane Sandy
will be used as a test case to show the intersection of social and physical
infrastructure factors in the resilience of urban areas.

V. Ukkusuri is a professor in the Lyles School of Civil Engineering, Director
of the Integrative Data Driven Transportation Networks Lab and Co-lead of the
Sustainable Communities Cluster at Purdue University. His research is in the
area of interdisciplinary transportation networks with current interests in
data driven mobility solutions, disaster management, resilience of
interdependent networks, connected and autonomous traffic systems, shared
mobility platforms, dynamic traffic networks and smart logistics. He is a
University Faculty Scholar (2017-present), Fulbright Fellow (2015-16), Discovery
Park Fellow (2013-15), a selectee of NAE JAFOE conference (2016) and a
CUTC/ARTBA Faculty Award (2011) among other awards both nationally and at
Purdue. He has published more than 250 peer reviewed journal and conference
articles. He is an Area Editor of Networks and Spatial Economics and an
Academic Editor of PLOS One among other editorial duties. He is a member of
several national and international committees, including the TRB’s Freight
Logistics and Planning Committee, Emergency Evacuation Modeling Committee and a
past member of the Network Modeling Committee.
Dr.Ukkusuri’s research in complex interdependent networks and disaster management
has been supported by multiple large NSF grants including the Hazards SEES
program and the CRISP program. He has published more than 110 peer reviewed
journal papers and 140 peer reviewed conference publications. He reviews grant
proposals for various agencies all over the world and is an invited and keynote
speaker at many conferences.
Dr. Ukkusuri received his PhD from University of Texas at
Austin, MS from the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign and a BTech from
IIT Madras.
