Abstrait:

Physical Civil Infrastructure Systems in urban areas are under stress due to various demands created by population growth and environmental hazards. Critical infrastructure systems such as, utility systems, transportation systems, and communication networks are considered. These systems are designed and operated independently by different authorities. In reality they are interdependent and function interactively and under a serious stress such as a natural hazard, the consequences go beyond failure of only one system. This paper emphasizes that the entire physical civil infrastructure system is a complex coupled- engineering system that supports the sustainability of an urban/suburban community or region. It is important to understand and model interdependencies. A joint effort by engineering and science disciplines along with public decision makers is necessary.
