System, method and program for estimating risk of disaster in infrastructure
First Claim
1. A method of estimating risk of a future disaster of an infrastructure, said method comprising the steps of:
- identifying times of previous, respective disasters of said infrastructure;
determining respective severities of said previous disasters; and
estimating risk of a future disaster of said infrastructure by determining a relationship between said previous disasters, their respective severities and their respective times of occurrence.

Abstract
Method, system and computer program for estimating risk of a future disaster of an infrastructure. Times of previous, respective disasters of the infrastructure are identified. Respective severities of the previous disasters are determined. Risk of a future disaster of the infrastructure is estimated by determining a relationship between the previous disasters, their respective severities and their respective times of occurrence. The risk can be estimated by generating a polynomial linking severity and time of occurrence of each of the previous disasters. The polynomial can be generated by approximating a Tchebychev polynomial.
