Les gouvernements locaux sont affectés par les catastrophes naturelles. De plus, les municipalités sont le niveau de gouvernement le plus proche des citoyens et donc le mieux placé pour répondre en cas de crise. Cette thèse a pour objectif d'éclairer la question de l'influence des catastrophes naturelles sur les choix de politique publique locale. A la fois les choix budgétaires, les décisions en termes de prévention des risques et leurs conséquences électorales. Le premier chapitre examine l'impact des catastrophes naturelles sur les budgets des municipalités en France. Pour ce faire, j'utili

Modern engineering structures should ensure an economic design, construction and operation of structures in compliance with the required safety for persons and the environment. In order to achieve this aim, all contingencies and associated consequences that may possibly occur throughout the life cycle of the considered structure have to be taken into account. Today, the development is often based on decision theory, methods of structural reliability and the modeling of consequences. Failure consequences are one of the significant issues that determine optimal structural reliability. In particu

Statistical models are necessary to quantify and understand the risk from natural hazards. A statistical framework is developed here to investigate the e ect of dependence between the frequency and intensity of natural hazards on the aggregate risk. The aggregate risk of a natural hazard is de ned as the sum of the intensities for all events within a season. This framework is applied to a database of extra tropical cyclone tracks from the NCEP-NCAR reanalysis for the October to March extended winters between 1950 and 2003.

Water-related natural hazards, such as flash floods, landslides and debris flows, usually happen in chains. In order to better understand the underlying physical processes and more reliably quantify the associated risk, it is essential to develop a physically-based multi-hazard modelling system to simulate these hazards at a catchment scale. An effective multi-hazard modelling system may be developed by solving a set of depth-averaged dynamic equations incorporating adaptive basal resistance terms.

Our environment is becoming increasingly complex: the rapid urbanisation, often accompanied by uncontrolled use of land, occupation of unsafe environments as well as the increased rate of occurrence of climate events are introducing elements of uncertainty (Pinna, 2002). The idea of certainty or security that was fundamental to risk management in the past, collapses. In this context, the notion of ‘risk society’, introduced by Ulrich Beck in 1992, is considered as a shifting paradigm in world security, where our modern society becomes ever more interdependent and more complex, and consequently

Even though quite different in occurrence and consequences, from a modeling perspective many natural hazards share similar properties and challenges. Their complex nature as well as lacking knowledge about their driving forces and potential effects make their analysis demanding: uncertainty about the modeling framework, inaccurate or incomplete event observations and the intrinsic randomness of the natural phenomenon add up to different interacting layers of uncertainty, which require a careful handling. Nevertheless deterministic approaches are still widely used in natural hazard assessments,

Streszczenie:

De nombreuses incertitudes liées aux mécanismes d'interaction entre les blocs rocheux et le versant naturel lors des chutes de blocs persistent ; la prévision de tels événements reste de ce fait encore incertaine. Néanmoins, les outils numériques et la puissance de calcul ne cessent d'évoluer. Si, auparavant, les calculs trajectographiques étaient restreints à des géométries simplifiées et à des mouvements balistiques en deux dimensions, il devient désormais possible d'y intégrer des raffinements tels que la forme complexe des blocs, des modèles numériques tridimensionnels de terrain d’une gra
