Urban road network resilience assessment on freight logistics by simulating disruptive events

The assessment of resilience in port road networks under disruptive events is a key issue related to urban logistics. This paper addresses an original simulation method to evaluate resilience using macro and micro simulation based on stochastic theory. The results provide insight into the resilience index of the network. This paper specifies the most influential network links around the area of influence produced by a logistics transport avenue in Lima-Peru. A function that includes redundancy and robustness of the system as a performance measure is proposed to measure resilience.
