An agent based model for risk-based flood incident management

Complex systems simulation for risk assessment in flood incident management

This paper proposes a complex systems methodology for risk assessment in emergency management and response systems. The methodology is applied to a concrete case, the flood incident management system (FIM) operated by the British Environment Agency. Flood incidents are one category of natural catastrophes, disasters or emergencies. The occurrence of emergencies is determined by the operation of...

Risk analysis of urban flood in Bandar Abbas using Machine Learning model and Analytic Hierarchy Process

Extended abstract 1- Introduction Floods are one of the natural events that cause human casualties and damage to buildings, facilities, gardens, fields, and natural resources every year. Urbanization disturbs the balance of slopes through indirect intrusion within watersheds, kills vegetation, soil compaction, and changes in the profile of waterways, increases the severity of floods, and incr...

A GIS-based Flood Risk Assessment Tool: Supporting Flood Incident Management at the local scale

Design of Flood-loss Sharing Programs in the Upper Tisza Region, Hungary: A Dynamic Multi-Agent Adaptive Monte Carlo Approach

Losses from human-made and natural catastrophes are rapidly increasing. The main reason for this is the clustering of people and capital in hazard-prone areas as well as the creation of new hazardprone areas, a phenomenon that may be aggravated by a lack of knowledge of the risks. This alarming human-induced tendency calls for new integrated approaches to catastrophic risk management. This pape...

بررسی آشفتگی در الگوی خطر سیلاب در تهران

Flood as a natural disaster follows certain erratic patterns which was made confounding factor. Flood risk is variable and complex that depends on very phenomena such as rainfall, runoff concentration and high exposure of the flooding downstream areas.     This are changes over time and from regions due to natural conditions, human activities, and damage culture...
