Equity in Evacuation Planning and Mitigation: Implications of Transportation Infrastructure and Social Vulnerability

Growth and Change, Volume 57, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This research addresses a critical but underexamined challenge in disaster preparedness: the identification of neighborhoods where evacuation is hardest to accomplish based on physical infrastructure constraints as well as inherent social vulnerability. Existing evacuation approaches emphasize the flow of traffic and the capacity of roads, but

Optimizing LID Practices in the Genoa Urban Drainage System Based on the Community's Call for Action Through Participatory Mapping

Journal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 2, June 2026.
ABSTRACT This paper presents a novel methodology for optimizing installation of low impact development practices (LIDs) in an urban hydrological catchment. This methodology helps stakeholders in deciding on what kind and area of LID must be installed in each sub‐catchment to attenuate pluvial flooding as a result of intense rain events.

Nonparametric Cure Models Through Extreme‐Value Tail Estimation

Scandinavian Journal of Statistics, Volume 53, Issue 2, Page 984-1000, June 2026.
ABSTRACT In survival analysis, the estimation of the proportion of subjects who will never experience the event of interest, termed the cure rate, has received considerable attention recently. Its estimation can be a particularly difficult task when follow‐up is not sufficient, that is, when the censoring mechanism has a smaller support than the ...
