New research at FRS increases the efficiency and reliability of detecting issues in power networks.  

FRS applications facilitate critical infrastructure and climate change investigation, measure resilience to what-if scenarios, and support decision-making.

FRS researchers developed the ResQ-IOS, a computational tool for modeling, optimising, and quantifying the resilience of interdependent critical infrastructure networks.

This FRS working paper outlines how social contracts and social trust are key building blocks of social resilience.

This FRS Technical Note details a tool based on optimisation under uncertainty to address planning issues for training events for Singapore's Defence Science and Technology Agency (DSTA).

This Note explores how trust builds social resilience by supporting well-functioning social contracts.

An economic-driven robust optimisation approach

Dr Beatrice Cassottana of FRS and her co-writers propose a three-step resilience assessment framework for Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS).  

Using multisource geospatial data, FRS researchers propose a geo-semantic framework to explore the relationship between multi-hierarchical urban context and street-level traffic flow.

Using Immunisation and Mitigation strategies, FRS researchers and their team model fortification strategies on a transmission network for more resilient and cost-effective solutions.

FRS researchers and their team combine simulation models and machine learning algorithms to better predict the resilience of infrastructure systems during disruptions.

Prof. Renate Schubert and Dr Jonas Joerin of FRS explain how scientific approaches help in understanding social resilience and other human issues.  

A new lab designed by FRS and GeoGAZE Lab will study humans' decision-making capabilities in control rooms.

Open-source geospatial platform ur-scape v0.9.94 now contains new data features and a Network Disruption Analysis tool

In a recent study, FRS researchers use household electricity consumption as an indicator of residents’ daily behaviours to analyse how they responded collectively during the Covid-19 pandemic.

At the UR2020 virtual conference, researchers from the SEC shared insights on screening public investment projects using online digital mapping technology such as the ur-scape tool.

Prof. Renate Schubert and collaborators from the University of Zurich and University of Hong Kong are studying public perception to improve COVID-19-related communication in the Asian context.

Researchers from the Future Resilient Systems programme present a multiple criteria decision analysis (MCDA) software that supports the dynamic shaping and evaluation of indices.

How robust are information sharing strategies for information overload? Researchers from FRS developed an agent-based model to test how information sharing strategies impact collective decision-​making.

Prof. Mao Kezhi is studying the impact and potential long-term consequences of the #SGUnited national campaign, which could provide insights to better shape future resilience policies and campaigns.

FRS researchers have analysed the social resilience against climate change-related risks of residents of Cambridge Road in Singapore in a project led by the Centre for Liveable Cities.

The second phase of the FRS programme officially started on 1 April. It is launched amidst unprecedented global circumstances, highlighting the need to better understand and foster resilience.
