Abstract:

Over a period of decades there are lot of frequent disruptions due to natural, man-made and technological disasters which are seriously effecting the society, environment and economy. Hence it is vital that an effective integrated disaster management must be defined by integrating various types of disasters for being equipped in real time to face disasters in an extremely short span of time. In this paper a framework for disaster management is defined based on cloud and internet of things. A disaster management use case is developed based on the defined framework by integrating natural and man

Abstract:

In India, the colossal loss of life and property, the social and economic disruptions caused by the increasing frequencies and severity of natural disasters has increased awareness on natural disaster management at all levels including political circles. However, the terrorist attack over World Trade Centre in USA and the spread of anthrax fear in its aftermath has shifted our attention towards potential danger of the biological and other manmade disasters. It is in this context that disaster management as an important issue draws attention of various stakeholders in the disaster management co

Abstract:

A disaster may be defined, for this paper, as “a situation in which an urgent need arises for international assistance to relieve humansuffering.” Disasters are frequently divided into manmade and natural disasters. Many so-called natural disasters have, however, a considerable manmade component in their etiology. The number of people vulnerable to the effects of disasters is increasing, and in the future disasters affecting human beings are likely to occur with greater frequency and severity, Full account must also be taken of the effects of a rapidly expanding world population, of advances i

Abstract:

Abstract: Emergency and disaster are on the rise in the world. One of the most important components of disaster risk management is the early warning system. Studies have shown divergent models of warning systems with different structures. However, since no systematic review of early warning systems in disasters has been conducted so far, a systematic review of the models, components, and structures of these systems is essential. This protocol is a systematic review study, which aims to evaluate the existing warning systems and their structure. An Early Warning System (EWS) represents the set o

Abstract:

Disasters are both natural and manmade that result in widespread loss to living beings and property. Even though completely avoid - ing disasters may not be possible; their impact can be managed if interventions are planned and executed properly in time. Having appropriate relief logistics to manage such eventualities is cru - cial to disaster management. Adding humanitarian angle to relief operations gives human face to disaster management. Current book is written with an objective of providing knowledge on disaster management with particular emphasis on humanitarian logistics in relief opera

AbstractThe Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) in the Department of Health and Human Services offers extensive disaster behavior health resources to assist disaster survivors in preparing for, responding to, and recovering from natural and manmade disasters. One of SAMHSA’s most innovative resources is the SAMHSA Behavioral Health Disaster Response App (SAMHSA Disaster App). The SAMHSA Disaster App prepares behavioral health responders for any type of traumatic event by allowing them to access disaster-related materials and other key resources right on their pho

Abstract:

This paper summarizes the key lessons that have been learned from the failure of the flood defense system for the greater New Orleans area during hurricane Katrina. This was a manmade disaster whose roots were firmly embedded in failure of the Technology Delivery System that had been charged with providing adequate flood protection for the public. Two basic approaches for going forward are explored. Recommendations for improvements in engineering criteria and guidelines and in the Technology Delivery System charged with providing acceptable flood protection are advanced.

Abstract:

Enhancing and building resilient cities represent a contemporary approach on which scientists and policy makers are strengthening cooperation; however, so far quantitative metrics and standards for measuring resilience are still open issues. This must be aimed toward diminishing society’s vulnerability and reducing the likelihood of disasters (both manmade and natural) and their possible effects. The evaluation of metrics within the crisis management should be able to provide a useful tool and enable stakeholders to assess the effectiveness of resilience strategies and their added value is a k

The ensuing tsunami devastated a huge area resulting in some 25,000 persons confirmed dead or missing. The perfect storm was complete when the tsunami then found the four-reactor, Fukushima-Daiichi Nuclear Station directly in its destructive path.

Leaks may generate dangerous clouds of gas escaping from the high-pressure pipe and produce serious incidences involving fire and explosion endangering the life and property safety of people in and around the area. Monitoring of natural gas pipeline leaks will timely find out and locate these dangerous occurrences and reduce loss. Within the leak monitoring, the core con

The recent years have shown a high frequency of disruptions like natural disasters or manmade disruptions, leading, for example, to transport routes or production facilities being unavailable for extended periods. Many manufacturing companies, which nowadays operate in a global production network, are heavily exposed to these disruptions. This results in both significant costs and substantial exceeding of promised deadlines. If it concerns the first company in a supply chain, it causes correspondingly significant delays in promised deadlines for subsequent companies in the supply chain, includ

This type of system would help make decisions about what to do in situations where danger may be prevalent. Thus, creating an intelligent system that could
