2. Approach
Our focus in this review has been on papers published within the last 10 years, with a
preponderance of the papers having been published in the last 56
years. Most of the papers
are from peer reviewed journals. Some important reports and articles have also been included
due to their importance to the area under review. In this paper, we first review some papers in
the general area of disasters, followed by disaster resilience, transportation infrastructure /
network resilience and finally port resilience. We conclude with our observations on the
review with recommendations for future research.
