Abstract:
Post-disaster prevention strategies and education affect and shape the future development pattern and behavior of disaster prevention and reduction. Chengdu has made great achievements in disaster prevention education after the Wenchuan earthquake. Data from several dimensions has been analyzed through SPSS to explore the reasons for its success. The first dimension is disaster prevention education, including disaster research, disaster educational institution bases and disaster prevention education halls, etc. The second one is legal strategies for disasters, including current disaster-related policies and regulations of Chengdu. The disaster education in Chengdu over the ten years has been reviewed based on the weighted processing of historical data by SPSS. Though achievements have been made, there is room for improvement in the cultivation of a legal cultural concept for disasters and the establishment of a disaster accountability mechanism. Therefore, this paper reviewed the past legal education experience of Chengdu and made targeted suggestions based on the discrete processing analysis of multiple factors of post-disaster education so as to provide more thoughts on future disaster prevention strategies and legal education for disasters.

Abstract:
The Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015–2030 continues to emphasize disaster education for disaster risk reduction. We developed a new disaster education package using a disaster prevention notebook and quizzes and investigated its benefits for disaster prevention and mitigation. The disaster prevention notebook was developed by the International Research Institute of Disaster Science (IRIDeS) of Tohoku University. It explains how to prevent natural disasters and how to act during natural disasters. Seventy nine elementary school students participated in the new disaster education package using disaster prevention pocket notebook and quizzes or the disaster education package with cartoons and quizzes. They answered some questions before and after learning using the educational materials. Results clearly demonstrated the beneficial effects of these disaster education programs on protective actions and the prevention actions related to disasters. We discussed the advantages of the new disaster education package on disaster education. We suggest that thinking about the situation and deciding one’s own behaviors might enhance self-regulated learning which includes metacognition, strategic action, and motivation to learn. We assume that our new disaster education would facilitate metacognition, strategic action, and motivation to learn in the self-regulation learning theory.

Abstract:
Many lives were saved due to local disaster prevention activities such as evacuation guidance during the Great East Japan Earthquake. On the other hand, those involved in local disaster prevention activities were negatively affected in many cases. Therefore, local disaster prevention activities and safety-ensuring measures during large-scale disasters are being reviewed. This paper focuses on fire companies that are expected to develop and implement the core of local disaster prevention activities. In order to study the effectiveness of safety measures in areas that are vulnerable to natural disasters, disaster prevention activities focusing on water and wind disasters in particular were studied in Kiho Town in Mie Prefecture following the Great East Japan Earthquake. As a result, information communication measures, equipment, and manuals proved to be effective in areas that are at risk of disasters other than earthquakes. In addition, the importance of sharing manuals in organizations was also shown, because disaster measures in fire companies tend to be performed based on individual experience. Furthermore, the importance of cooperation with other organizations in the region was also demonstrated.

Abstract:
Disasters have several principal features, appeared when neglected detailed and unique behaviors, consistent throughout events, which we discuss based on practical disaster data. The principal features we focused on are dynamics of technologies and society, spatiotemporal evolution and diversity in scenarios leading to disasters, and probability distribution based on disaster scale. Among these features, the probability distribution is normalized to fall into a specified curve consistent with theWeibull distribution and Heinrich’s law. Numerical simulation via cellular automata (CA) simulation with a metaphor model gives Heinrich’s law under the specified constraint, suggesting that the Weibull distribution or Heinrich’s law gives a representative statistical characteristics universal throughout disasters.

Abstract:
Oral and other modes of transmission that convey the experience of past disasters possess a vividness that cannot be obtained by disaster prevention education practices such as viewing hazard maps. Oral transmission is believed to have the capacity to induce rapid evacuation of people during disasters by acting on their emotions such as fear or anxiety. Meanwhile, the judgment, decision-making, or disaster knowledge of past disasters, has limitations such as the inclusion of inappropriate views from the standpoint of modern disaster management, or underestimation of the damage in the event of major disasters of an unprecedented scale, which can lead to a delay in evacuation. Disaster prevention education should adopt a “hybrid approach,” which combines oral transmission or other means that act on “emotions,” by providing a virtual experience of disasters and modern disaster-prevention knowledge, including hazard maps and teaching material, based on “reason.”

The disaster-prevention microgrid is designed to connect the smart inverter with the energy storage battery pack, it can integrate the power of renewable energy into the supply load of the municipal grid. It also can become a small smart microgrid system to operate independently and provide flexible power. By combining the Intelligent Energy Management System (EMS), proposed system can provide stable management and monitoring household energy use and reliable supply of electricity. This thesis designs energy management system with power dispatching function to build disaster-proof microgrid by integrating energy storage system、 hybrid ongrid inverter and standby generator. The energy management system provides two operation modes: normal operation and island operation modes. In the normal operation mode, the load is supplied by the main power or energy storage system. In case of main power is interrupted in the island operation mode, the load is supplied by the energy storage system or the standby generator. In the island operation mode, this study extract the voltage of the deep cycle battery pack terminal, when it is at a low potential and cannot maintain the supply load, the backup generator immediately goes online to maintain the normal operation of the load. The test results show that the energy storage system and the standby generator both can supply a stable power output in turn under both operation modes. Therefore, the performance and practicability of proposed microgrid built in this thesis can be verified.

Leisure activities play an important role in modern times, and Taiwan is located at the edge of west Pacific Ocean, between Philippines Sea Plate and Eurasian Plate.The location causes many typhoons and high frequency earthquake disasters, and typhoons may bring flood, mudslide and other compound disasters. People may under the threaten of disasters in their leisure times, therefore, the idea of leisure disaster prevention is very important when people is doing leisure activities. People can prevent from accidents when they know more ideas of disaster prevention literacy. The research was based on Quasi Experiment, 160 students were participated in the study, fifth and sixth grader students of Tucheng Elementary School are selected as research objectives. Implement pretest questionnaires before disaster-prevention teaching, and implement posttest questionnaires after disaster-prevention teaching and disaster experiential teaching.The purpose of this research is to understand the effect of implementing disaster prevention teaching and experiencing in the Fire Safety Museum in the fifth and sixth grade students in Tucheng Elementary School,explore the relationship between personal background variables and knowledge, attitude, skills of leisure disaster prevention, and to treat the correlation of disaster prevention knowledge, attitude, and skills, which are the three dimensions of disaster prevention literacy. Analyze the acquired data by statistics methods such as Descriptive Statics, T-test, Pearson Product-Moment Correlation and Multiple Regression Analysis. The results of this study were showed that: Students that receive the disaster prevention knowledge to “curriculums and teachers” the most, followed by “computer network”; in disaster experiences, the most is“earthquakes” and the second is “typhoons.” The gender of students, the whole pretest scores, and the scores after experiences have no significant differences. Genders have significant differences on posttest scores, and girls’ scores are better than boys’, but no significant differences in different graders. After disaster prevention teaching, leisure disaster prevention knowledge, attitude and skills are significantly positively correlated with each other. After students experience in The Fire Safety Museum, whole leisure disaster prevention knowledge and skills have whole leisure disaster prevention knowledge and skills have significant differences and obvious positive correlation. “Leisure disaster prevention knowledge” and ”leisure disaster prevention skill” have the most relevance, “leisure disaster prevention knowledge” and ”leisure disaster prevention attitude”, ”leisure disaster prevention skill” and ”leisure disaster prevention attitude” have no obvious positive correlation. After teaching and experiencing, students’ posttest scores are better than their pretest scores, and these findings reach a very significant level. The research shows disaster prevention educational curriculums and disaster prevention experiential education have obvious effects for increasing students’ disaster prevention literacy.

Soil and Water Conservation Bureau, in the past few decades, have been training enthusiastic local leaders and elites to become debris flow disaster prevention volunteers with the hope of forming self-mobilized disaster prevention communities so that there can be local-based experts who may provide on-time alerts, report live information to proper authorities and thus may have impacts of disasters may be kept to the minimum or even be prevented. Debris flow disaster prevention experts have long been seen contributing a lot to disaster prevention education, evacuation thrills and best of all, disaster report. And their collection of rainfall as well as other hydrological information may come in as plus on top of meteorologists’ studies weather, appearing especially helpful during typhoon and torrent seasons; these experts have their crucial role in keeping our people safe. The current research is to compare and contrast the rainfall collected by these experts and reports at meteorological stations and the application of these volunteers’ data on disaster prevention. Results show that data collected by those volunteers and meteorological reports may be “completely congruent, completely incongruent and partially discrepant” and that may be attributed to (1) geological formation of the spot the volunteer reported from (2) distance between the spot the volunteer was at and the meteorological station (3) route of the typhoon. With Thiessen Polygons Method to categorize sections that a meteorological station may cover, the researcher discovers that an area that has a meteorological station, potential debris flow torrents, protected objects but no experts may need to be scrutinized as well. Contributions of a debris flow disaster prevention expert may include (1) to include information that rainfall report might miss out (2) to urge preventive evacuation (3) to boost necessary establishment of additional meteorological stations.

Abstract:
The emergency shelter with disaster prevention facilities provides a safe place by construction for emergency situations such as earthquake, nuclear accident etc., which can supply emergency evacuation and temporary residence for refugees. The disaster prevention facilities of emergency shelter are complete sets of measurements which ensure the daily essentials for refugees. The paper classifies the emergency shelters and puts forward their scales and service scopes; it also proposes the setting requirements of disaster prevention facilities for every kind of emergency shelter. The study is not only has advantages to the general plan and distribution of various emergency shelters, but also makes a significant sense of improving the level of disaster resistance and rescue.

Abstract:
For prevention and mitigation of typhoon disaster in China, in this paper the double-layer nested multi-objective probability model of typhoon disaster zoning and prevention criteria is proposed. The Multivariate Compound Extreme Value Distribution (MCEVD) is used to predict the joint probability of seven typhoon characteristics and corresponding typhoon induced disaster. Predicted results can be used for both of typhoon disaster zoning and corresponding prevention criteria along China coast.

Abstract:
Extreme rainfall events are expected to become more frequent and more intense in the future. Because their mitigation is a challenge and their cost to human life is large, this paper studies the impact of preemptive investment against natural disasters on the future occurrence of landslides and the losses associated with it. Based on a panel of 746 Colombian municipalities with medium and high risk of landslides and an instrumental variable approach, we find that preemptive public investment can reduce the number of landslides, the number of people who die, are injured, or disappear after a landslide, as well as the number of people affected. However, we do not find any effect on the number of houses destroyed. The results reveal that local governments focus their preventive measures on saving the lives and the physical integrity of their citizens, but they pay less attention to the direct market losses of natural disasters. These results are relevant in the presence of imperfect private insurance markets and increased informal settlements.
