Abstract The aim of this paper is to investigate which between the entropy and resilience indices represents a better indirect measure of reliability in the framework of water distribution network design. The methodology adopted consisted of (a) multi-objective optimizations performed in order to minimize costs and maximize reliability, expressed by means of one of the indirect indices at time; (b) retrospective performance assessment of the solutions of Pareto fronts obtained. Two case studies of different topological complexity were considered. Results showed that indices based on energetic concepts (resilience and modified resilience) represent a better compact estimate of reliability than the entropy.

- A systematic literature review of resilience engineering: Research areas and a research agenda proposal (2015, background): “However, HRO theory does not give a prominent role to the concept of resilience, as four other characteristics are equally emphasized: preoccupation with failure, reluctance to simplify interpretations, sensitivity to operations, and deference to expertise [51].”
