Reviewing definition of resilience in different disciplines with a focus on disaster restructure systems

A key principle in resilience thinking is Embracing Change because change is, indeed, inevitable. In the face of a growing number of disasters, natural and human-made disasters, our critical infrastructures (CIs) are being challenged like never before. This recent trend has sparked a wave of interest among both practitioners and researchers in understanding and delving deeper into the concept of resilience across multiple disciplines. This paper provides an accessible review of these new insights, exploring various frameworks, guidebooks, and methodologies that define resilience through the lens of ecology, engineering, psychology, social science, community, and disaster management during crisis.

A computational method for estimating Burr XII parameters with complete and multiple censored data

Flexibility in shape and scale of Burr XII distribution can make close approximation of numerous well-known probability density functions. Due to these capabilities, the usages of Burr XII distribution are applied in risk analysis, lifetime data analysis and process capability estimation. In this paper the Cross-Entropy (CE) method is further developed in terms of Maximum Likelihood Estimation (MLE) to estimate the parameters of Burr XII distribution for the complete data or in the presence of multiple censoring. A simulation study is conducted to evaluate the performance of the MLE by means of CE method for different parameter settings and sample sizes. The results are compared to other existing methods in both uncensored and censored situations.
