The Effect of Urban Green Infrastructure on Disaster Mitigation in Korea
Increasing precipitation by climate change and the growing number of impervious areas present greater risk of disaster damage in urban areas. Urban green infrastructure can be an effective mitigation alternative in highly developed and concentrated area. This study investigates the effect of various types of urban green infrastructure on mitigating disaster damage in Korea. Tobit model is used ...
متن کاملDisaster Mitigation Engineering -the Kobe Earthquake Disaster
The concept of plate tectonics is generally accepted in earth science and seismology. The surface of the earth is divided into rigid tectonic plates that move on the earth surface at extremely slow speed. The islands of Japan sit on the North American and Eurasian plates. The Pacific plate moves westward and the Philippines plate moves to northwest direction; both plates sink under the islands ...
متن کاملMoving Towards Crowd Tasking for Disaster Mitigation
Advancements in information and communication technology (ICT) offer new possibilities when dealing with crisis situations. In this paper we present the design for a crowd tasking tool (CTT) that is currently under development. We describe how the tool can assist disaster relief coordinators during a crisis by selectively distributing tasks to a crowd of volunteers. We also compare the CTT with...
متن کاملLetter to the Editor: Application of Haddon Matrix in Disaster Management: A New Window in Disaster Mitigation Risk
In recent years, disaster management has been the focus of attention since disasters have been associated with huge destructions and consequences. Basically, disaster management techniques aim at the prevention and mitigation works as well as promotion of resilience. Haddon’s matrix was proposed as a conceptual model to understand the event and provide preventive measures in the field of injur...
متن کاملApproaching Urban Disaster Reality: The ResQ Firesimulator
The RoboCupRescue Simulation project aims at simulating large-scale disasters in order to explore coordination strategies helpful for real-life rescue missions. This can only be achieved if the simulation itself is as close to reality as possible. In this paper, we present a new fire simulator based on a realistic physical model of heat development and heat transport in urban fires. It allows t...
