英文摘要	Project partners: Transport Scotland, Scottish Water, SSE, Atkins and ARU Partners' Challenge: The increased frequency and magnitude of environmental hazards in Scotland, in the last decade, has resulted in widespread failures in CI networks and their interdependent systems (e.g., devastating impacts of 2002 Glasgow flooding and 2013 storm on Carradale and Kintyre). The challenge currently faced by our industry partners are the lack of shared understanding of interdependencies and interoperability and a robust resilience-informed DSS. To tackle this challenge, this project will adopt recently developed Resilience and Vulnerability-based DSS (RV-DSS) to map interdependent network critical components for a real case study in Scotland. Aims and Objectives: This project aims to adopt a newly developed DSS to model infrastructure interdependencies of three CI networks (Water, Transport, Energy) providing a measure of network resilience in response to hazardous events, in addition to measure of vulnerability. Broken down our objectives are to: 1. Apply the RV-DSS to a real case study, North Argyll, providing resilience and vulnerability-informed management strategies and a comparative CBA of pre/post-utilisation of RV-DSS 2. Refine the RV-DSS based on lessons learnt on case study and stakeholders comments. 3. Provide a guideline on building a case study for RV-DSS and engaging stakeholders in utilisation of RV-DSS Project Plan: The proposed project consists of three Work Packages (WP), three Deliverables (D), two Reports (R), two Workshops (WS) and six Consortium Meetings (M) details of which are summarised below. WP1 will cover the overall management and progress of the project. This includes organising six consortium meetings and monthly summary-reports, providing project partners with progress being made. This WP will produce two technical reports: R1. Interim report containing project progress, due on Month 3 and R2. Final innovation report: a comprehensive report on project findings and a comparative CBA of pre and post RV-DSS analyses, due on Month 6. The overall objective of WP2 is to adopt RV-DSS to North Argyll case study, assessing the resilience of transport, water and energy network in response to failure propagation induced by infrastructure interdependencies. This WP will produce two deliverables: D1. Delivering interdependent asset register map for North Argyll, a central data repository for all assets and their functional and physical links in energy, transport and water networks located in North Argyll, in a form of a GIS map (Due on Month 4). D2. Delivering resilience and vulnerability assessment report of North Argyll interdependent infrastructure system, an exemplar of RV-DSS application (Due on Month 6). WP3 directs lessons learnt from WP2 and stakeholders comments during planned workshops and consortium meetings to refine the RV-DSS to better suit project partners' needs. As part of this WP, a manual for RV-DSS and a guideline on building a case study for RV-DSS will be delivered (D3, Due on Month 6) Benefits for Project partners: The refined RV-DSS alongside with its manual produced as part of this project can in general help all industry partners to manage future uncertainties in their long-term infrastructure investment decisions. D1 and D2 will provide means of updating current integrated infrastructure design, maintenance and operation methods in North Argyll. D3 will extend the application of these findings to a general case study. The industry-tuned RV-DSS can support project partners in developing an understanding of risk propagation through their systems and also prioritisation of asset management strategies at an organisational level. Additionally, it will play a crucial role in the promotion of road & rail, water and energy industries' services, management and maintenance strategies. Duration and Total Cost: The project is a 6-month project with the total estimated 80% FEC of £62,339.
