This paper proposes an optimization framework for sustainable post-disaster building reconstruction. Based on mathematical optimization, it is intended to provide decision makers with a versatile tool optimize designs and explore the trade-off between costs environmental impact (represented by embodied energy) of alternative materials. The mixed-integer nonlinear model includes analytical that ...

Abstract Areas affected by the 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami have recovered following a long-term reconstruction process, including Banda Aceh City, Indonesia. Using data from Statistics Indonesia, this study aims to analyze population dynamics in starting (pre-tsunami), 2005 (shortly after tsunami), as well 2010 and 2020 (post-reconstruction phase).
