EAGER: Adaptive Infrastructure Recovery from Repeated Shocks through Resilience Stress Testing in Ukraine

Assessing resilience of critical systems is becoming a standard practice to better understand how they perform in critical situations, like pandemic, abnormal climate conditions, or war. This project will develop a new framework of stress-testing based on quantitative analysis of how systems recover under shocks. This project unites researchers from USA, Poland, Lithuania, and Estonia to apply the novel analysis methods to critical digital and power infrastructure systems of Ukraine. This project will provide Ukraine with tools for enhancing resiliency of their critical infrastructure systems and catalyze the integration of Ukrainian researchers into the global research community. The Estonian partner will develop highly-resilient last-mile electrification tools allowing uninterrupted electricity supply to critical, sometimes life-sustaining, consumers, like hospitals, command centers, etc.
