Integrating Performance-Based Engineering and Urban Simulation to Model Post-Earthquake Housing Recovery
TLDR
A conceptual framework comprised of three components for modeling post-earthquake housing recovery, which can be scaled to model spatiotemporal scenarios of housing recovery to inform jurisdictional-level policies, plans, and interventions to increase residential community resilience.Abstract:
The efficacy of various types of intervention measures intended to facilitate post-earthquake housing recovery can be evaluated ahead of time by using simulation models to quantify their benefits a...read more

Earthquake early warning: Recent advances and perspectives
TL;DR: Next-generation EEW systems should incorporate engineering-based, application-specific models/tools for more effective risk communication, and operate within robust probabilistic frameworks that explicitly quantify uncertainties at each stage of the analysis, for more informed stakeholder decision-making.

Dennis Wagenaar,Alex Curran,Mariano Balbi,Alok Bhardwaj,Robert Soden,Robert Soden,Emir Hartato,Gizem Mestav Sarica,Laddaporn Ruangpan,Laddaporn Ruangpan,G. Molinario,David Lallemant +11 more
TL;DR: Overall, machine learning is likely to drastically improve future flood risk and impact assessments, but issues such as applicability, bias and ethics must be considered carefully to avoid misuse.

Meta-analysis of the strategies for self-healing and resilience in power systems
TL;DR: It is posited that a shift to a smarter, cleaner and more resilient power network requires sustained investments rather than disaster-induced responses, and there are still uncharted territories on how to incorporate system degradation while designing these self-restoration systems.

Agent-based model for post-earthquake housing recovery:
TL;DR: A framework of agent-based models for housing recovery is presented and used to investigate post-earthquake recovery in the City of Vancouver, Canada and it is demonstrated that the equity in recovery between low and high socioeconomic status homeowners is improved if mitigation measures are implemented.

Theory of Games and Economic Behavior
TL;DR: Theory of games and economic behavior as mentioned in this paper is the classic work upon which modern-day game theory is based, and it has been widely used to analyze a host of real-world phenomena from arms races to optimal policy choices of presidential candidates, from vaccination policy to major league baseball salary negotiations.
Journal ArticleDOI
At Risk: Natural Hazards, People's Vulnerability, and Disasters.
TL;DR: The authors argue that the social, political and economic environment is as much a cause of disasters as the natural environment and that the concept of vulnerability is central to an understanding of disasters and their prevention or mitigation, exploring the extent and ways in which people gain access to resources.

Discrete Choice Analysis: Theory and Application to Travel Demand
Moshe Ben-Akiva,Steven R. Lerman +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the methods of discrete choice analysis and their applications in the modeling of transportation systems and present a complete travel demand model system presented in chapter 11, which is intended as a graduate level text and a general professional reference.
Book
At Risk: Natural Hazards, People's Vulnerability and Disasters
TL;DR: In this paper, the challenge of disasters and their approach are discussed, and a framework and theory for disaster mitigation is presented. But the authors do not address the problem of access to resources and coping in adversarial situations.
Book
Intermediate microeconomics : A modern approach
TL;DR: The Varian approach as mentioned in this paper gives students tools they can use on exams, in the rest of their classes, and in their careers after graduation, and is still the most modern presentation of the subject.
