TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a post-disaster vulnerability analysis for the designed emergency transportation networks in Tehran, an earthquake-prone metropolis in a developing country, by identifying redundancy-based isolation measures to find out which zones in this city are most susceptible to disruptions of the transport system due to a devastating earthquake, and which emergency response trips are most vulnerable in the super-chaotic situation after the earthquake.

TL;DR: It is shown that how critical links can be identified for different terrorist purposes, which could be the subject of further security measures, are shown.

TL;DR: The proposed framework is employed to a real-world case study, and analytical results reveal the superiority of the proposed model in providing an economical and effective layout compared to conventional maximal covering model.

TL;DR: A methodology to analyze the most critical links of a railway network based on flow interdiction to maximize network disruption by removing the links with the greatest impact to the system is proposed.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a framework for assessing the vulnerability of the freight rail networks by introducing two bi-level models, one determines those critical links which have the greatest impact on the routing cost when interdicted, and the next one takes the cost of rescheduling into account, in addition to that of routing, over all origins and destinations.
