Abstract
The paper brings an overview of aspect of reliability of selected critical infrastructure elements. Firstly critical infrastructure elements are defined. Extreme loading of such elements and the normative standards are mentioned. The paper brings an overview about a current research connected with critical infrastructure element protection and in conclusions defines new challenges for the research in the problem.
Highlights
Over last few years the number of terrorist attacks has increased significantly, causing considerable tension and nervousness
The structural reliability analysis has uses stress limit states and the rating criteria of the valid standards, but the problem is when we could notice above, that standards valid in Europe (Eurocodes) in many cases does not count with such extreme loading which could be part of threat scenarios for critical infrastructure element
Protection of critical infrastructure elements is legislatively made on the management level of risk management where for risk analysis treat scenarios have to be taken into account
Summary
Over last few years the number of terrorist attacks has increased significantly, causing considerable tension and nervousness. To identify its elements for efficient managing security, it is necessary to define the types of attacks as well as to estimate the probability of occurrence and their expected consequences (Kravcov et al, 2017) When it is spoken about Critical Infrastructure Protection, it have to be regarded under the influence of the entire spectrum of possible threats, which are classified into three types according to Eismann (2014): The framework of critical infrastructure was implemented but mainly on the management level. The structural reliability analysis has uses stress limit states and the rating criteria of the valid standards, but the problem is when we could notice above, that standards valid in Europe (Eurocodes) in many cases does not count with such extreme loading which could be part of threat scenarios for critical infrastructure element. Society willingly accepts the use of probabilistic approaches in risk-based decision-making and applies them to a spectrum of hypothetically hazardous situations
