Prediction and Simulation of Human Mobility Following Natural Disasters
ACM Transactions on Intelligent Systems and Technology, 2016In recent decades, the frequency and intensity of natural disasters has increased significantly, and this trend is expected to continue. Therefore, understanding and predicting human behavior and mobility during a disaster will play a vital role in planning effective humanitarian relief, disaster management, and long-term societal ...

Research on Simulation Model of Nonstationary Stochastic Processes in Natural Disasters
Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2012Simulation of nonstationary processes has become an indispensable tool in study and prevention of natural disasters. A new method of simulation of nonstationary random processes is presented based on the orthogonal HHT spectra of sample observations and random phase.

Simulating natural disasters - A complex systems framework
2014This paper summarizes the SHELscape model, a complex systems framework developed for understanding economic transitions after natural disasters. The model is spatially defined with two agent categories (workers and owners) across two region types (rural and urban) producing two types of goods (food and a tradeable good). Seven behavioral modules define

Simulation-Based Evaluation of Port Emergency Evacuation Plans for Predictable Natural Disasters
Journal of Homeland Security and Emergency Management, 2012Abstract Effective port emergency evacuation could reduce the potential damages and losses caused by a predictive natural disaster. Thus, most U.S. ports have evacuation plans or guidelines established for predictive natural disasters, especially hurricanes.

Simulation modeling for a resilience improvement plan for natural disasters in a coastal area
Environmental Pollution, 2018Floods are threats to ecosystems that are caused by natural disasters such as typhoons and heavy rain, and to respond to these threats, resilience needs to be improved. In this study, the response of the social-ecological system of Haeundae-gu (Busan, Republic of Korea) to disasters is analyzed by using a causal loop diagram, and a resilience ...

Principles of Scarce Medical Resource Allocation in Natural Disaster Relief
Medical Decision Making, 2012Background. A variety of triage principles have been proposed. The authors sought to evaluate their effects on how many lives can be saved in a hypothetical disaster. Objective. To determine an optimal scarce resource–rationing principle in the emergency response domain, considering the trade-off between lifesaving efficiency and ethical issues ...
