Abstract

Critical infrastructure, particularly transit centers, is vital for national socioeconomic stability. Enhancing their resilience against natural and human-made disruptions is crucial. This study analyzes operational risks in transit centers by examining complex systems and their interconnected risk factors using an integrated approach combining Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS), Failure Mode and Effect Analysis (FMEA) and Multiple Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) concepts. To address assessment uncertainties, the study employs Interval-Valued Fermatean Fuzzy Sets (IVFFS) for evaluation, the Best-Worst Method (BWM) for risk factor weighting, and MARCOS for ranking failure modes. Using Taipei station as a case study, this methodology identifies priority areas for improvement and provides reliable risk management recommendations, offering a framework applicable to other critical infrastructure operations.
