Disaster Series: The Abrupt NICU Evacuation – Disasters without a Plan

Evacuation from Natural Disasters: A Systematic Review of the Literature.

Research on evacuation from natural disasters has been published across the peer-reviewed literature among several disparate disciplinary outlets and has suggested a wide variety of predictors of evacuation behavior. We conducted a systematic review to summarize and evaluate the current literature on demographic, storm-related, and psychosocial correlates of natural disaster evacuation behavior...

A robust optimization model for distribution and evacuation in the disaster response phase

Natural disasters, such as earthquakes, affect thousands of people and can cause enormous financial loss. Therefore, an efficient response immediately following a natural disaster is vital to minimize the aforementioned negative effects. This research paper presents a network design model for humanitarian logistics which will assist in location and allocation decisions for multiple disaster per...

Bottlenecks and Congestion in Evacuation Scenarios: A Microscopic Evacuation Simulation for Large-Scale Disasters

Multi Agent Simulation has increasingly been used for transportation simulation in recent years. With current techniques, it is possible to simulate systems consisting of several million agents. Such Multi Agent Simulations have been applied to transportation simulation for whole cities and even large regions. In this paper we demonstrate how to adapt an existing multi agent transportation simu...
