Abstract:
Pakistan is exposed to various natural calamities due to its geophysical condition and climatic changes. In addition, man-made disasters also pose a threat to human lives and properties which includes industrial and transport disasters including oil spills, civil unrest, wars and conflicts. Although it is not possible to stop or prevent natural disasters, but the negative impacts of natural disasters can be minimized through human efforts. The government of Pakistan has adopted participatory approach as part of its policy for disaster management. This research paper is based on the analysis of secondary data for reviewing the existing policies with emphasis on disaster risk reduction in pre and post disaster period. The paper concludes that participation of target community is indispensable for disaster risk reduction on sustainable basis. The article suggests that community should be meaningfully involved in disaster risk reduction efforts at the local level. In this connection the role of social workers is indispensable for disaster risk reduction on sustainable basis.

Abstract:
AbstractIn recent years, effective models of disaster medicine curricula for medical schools have been established. However, only a small percentage of medical schools worldwide have considered at least basic disaster medicine teaching in their study program. In Italy, disaster medicine has not yet been included in the medical school curriculum. Perceiving the lack of a specific course on disaster medicine, the Segretariato Italiano Studenti in Medicina (SISM) contacted the Centro di Ricerca Interdipartimentale in Medicina di Emergenza e dei Disastri ed Informatica applicata alla didattica e alla pratica Medica (CRIMEDIM) with a proposal for a nationwide program in this field. Seven modules (introduction to disaster medicine, prehospital disaster management, definition of triage, characteristics of hospital disaster plans, treatment of the health consequences of different disasters, psychosocial care, and presentation of past disasters) were developed using an e-learning platform and a 12-hour classroom session which involved problem-based learning (PBL) activities, table-top exercises, and a computerized simulation (Table 1). The modules were designed as a framework for a disaster medicine curriculum for undergraduates and covered the three main disciplines (clinical and psychosocial, public health, and emergency and risk management) of the core of “Disaster Health” according to the World Association for Disaster and Emergency Medicine (WADEM) international guidelines for disaster medicine education. From January 2011 through May 2013, 21 editions of the course were delivered to 21 different medical schools, and 524 students attended the course. The blended approach and the use of simulation tools were appreciated by all participants and successfully increased participants’ knowledge of disaster medicine and basic competencies in performing mass-casualty triage. This manuscript reports on the designing process and the initial outcomes with respect to learners' achievements and satisfaction of a 1-month educational course on the fundamentals of disaster medicine. This experience might represent a valid and innovative solution for a disaster medicine curriculum for medical students that is easily delivered by medical schools.Table 1List of Modules and TopicsModuleTopics1.

Abstract:
Disasters are sudden and catastrophic events with fatal consequences. Time-sensitive information collection from disaster zones is crucial for improved and data-driven disaster response. However, information collection from disaster zones in a prompt way is not easy or even possible. Human-centric information provided by citizen sensors through social media platforms create an opportunity for prompt information collection from disaster zones. There is, nevertheless, limited scholarly work that provides a comprehensive review on the potential of social media analytics for disaster response. This study utilizes a systematic literature review with PRISMA protocol to investigate the potential of social media analytics for enhanced disaster response. The findings of the systematic review of the literature pieces (n = 102) disclosed that (a) social media analytics in the disaster management research domain is an emerging field of research and practice; (b) the central focus on the research domain is on the utilization of social media data for disaster response to natural hazards, but the social media data-driven disaster response to human-made disasters is an increasing research focus; (c) human-centric information intelligence provided by social media analytics in disaster response mainly concentrates on collective intelligence, location awareness, and situation awareness, and (d) there is limited scholarly research investigating near-real-time transport network management aftermath disasters. The findings inform authorities’ decision-making processes as near-real time disaster response management depending on social media analytics is a critical element of securing sustainable cities and communities.

This study analyzed emergency rescue responses in large-scale disasters in Japan using White Paper on Japan Fire Service, White Paper on Japan Police, Defense of Japan (Annual White Paper), White Paper on Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism in Japan, and Annual Health, Labour and Welfare Report published by the Fire and Disaster Management Agency (FDMA), the National Police Agency (NPA), the Ministry of Defence (MOD), the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLITT), and the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare (MHLW), to contribute to establishing emergency rescue responses during large-scale disasters in Korea. When the resources of disaster areas in Japan are inadequate for emergency response during a disaster due to its large-scale, prefectural governors request to mobilize the Emergency Fire Response Team (EFRT) of FDMA, the Inter-Prefectural Emergency Rescue Unit (IERU) of NPA, the Self-Defense Force of MOD, the Technical Emergency Control Force of MLITT, and the Disaster Medical Assistance Team of MHLW. These teams mobilized from the entire country perform emergency rescue activities through strong connection and collaboration under the command of prefectural governors.

Abstract:
Urban transport infrastructures (TIs) play a central role in an urban society that faces more and more disasters. TIs, part of critical infrastructures (CIs), are highly correlated with urban disaster management in terms of their resilience when cities are facing a crisis or disaster. According to many studies, indicator assessment has been frequently used for the resilience management of CIs in recent decades. Defining and characterizing indicators can be useful for disaster managers as it could help monitor and improve the capacities and performance of TIs. The purpose of this paper, therefore, is (1) to identify and summarize the existing indicators of TIs resilience from the currently available literature, and (2) to discuss the possible future studies of the resilience indicator of TIs. The first results indicated that there are some barriers to identify indicators following the common search method through keywords. Additionally, the indicators found are mainly related to technical information, the disruption stage, and internal TIs. Finally, due to the complexity of indicator assessment, sub-indicators and indicator spatialization are widely used in the resilience assessment of urban TIs studies.

Abstract:
Introduction:Children are a vulnerable population in disasters. However, there were few pediatricians, neonatologists, and obstetricians in the Japan Disaster Medical Assistance Team (DMAT), so disaster medical headquarters had limited knowledge to solve these problems. Pediatric and perinatal disaster liaison coordinators were trained to improve disaster medical management for children and pregnant women since the 2016 Kumamoto earthquake.Aim:To analyze and report the activity of PPDML during these years in Osaka, Japan.Methods:The records of PPDML in major disasters and disaster drills from 2017 to 2018 were reviewed.Results:The DMAT had disaster drills twice a year in Osaka, and PPDML participated in the drill for the first time in July 2017. In the drill, PPDML coordinated the pediatric and perinatal issues with DMAT and Japan Ground Self-Defense Force (JGSDF) in disaster headquarters. In June 20184. months after the drill, PPDML participated for the second time in February 2018 when the North Osaka Earthquake occurred. PPDML coordinated transport of 22 children and babies with congenital heart disease from the damaged National Cerebral and Cardiovascular Center Hospital. The operation was finished within 5 hours after requested transportation.Discussion:To protect children and pregnant women, cooperation between the disaster medical network and the pediatric and perinatal network is absolutely important for any phase in disaster. Because PPDML had attended in disaster drills before, the experience could make PPDML achieve good performance in a real disaster in North Osaka Earthquake. It can be concluded that cooperation between disaster medical network and PPDML is very useful to manage the disaster issues for children and pregnant women, and the most important thing is to cooperate not only in disaster but also in ordinary days.

Abstract:
AbstractMobile health care technology (mHealth) has the potential to improve communication and clinical information management in disasters. This study reviews the literature on health care and computing published in the past five years to determine the types and efficacy of mobile applications available to disaster medicine, along with lessons learned.Five types of applications are identified: (1) disaster scene management; (2) remote monitoring of casualties; (3) medical image transmission (teleradiology); (4) decision support applications; and (5) field hospital information technology (IT) systems. Most projects have not yet reached the deployment stage, but evaluation exercises show that mHealth should allow faster processing and transport of patients, improved accuracy of triage and better monitoring of unattended patients at a disaster scene. Deployments of teleradiology and field hospital IT systems to disaster zones suggest that mHealth can improve resource allocation and patient care. The key problems include suitability of equipment for use in disaster zones and providing sufficient training to ensure staff familiarity with complex equipment. Future research should focus on providing unbiased observations of the use of mHealth in disaster medicine.CaseT, MorrisonC, VuylstekeA.

Abstract:
Effective disaster management is required for the peoples who are trapped in the disaster scenario but unfortunately when disaster situation occurs the infrastructure support is no longer available to the rescue team. Ad hoc networks which are infrastructure-less networks can easily deploy in such situation. In disaster area mobility model, disaster area is divided into different zones such as incident zone, casualty treatment zones, transport areas, hospital zones, etc. Also, in order to tackle high mobility of nodes and frequent failure of links in a network, there is a need of adaptive routing protocol. Reinforcement learning is used to design such adaptive routing protocol which shows good improvement in packet delivery ratio, delay and average energy consumed.

Abstract:
Korea is conducting emergency rescue drills led by fire agencies in preparation for a major disaster. On the other hand, in Japan, when large-scale disasters occur, Emergency Fire Response Teams (EFRTs) from national fire headquarters are mobilized by requests or orders from the director-general of the Fire and Disaster Management Agency. EFRTs perform emergency rescue together with the Inter-Prefectural Emergency Rescue Unit of the National Police Agency, a disaster relief unit of the Self-Defense Forces, Technical Emergency Control Force of the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism, and the Disaster Medical Assistance Team of the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. Thus, EFRTs perform these exercises in collaboration with these working institutions. This study suggests the introduction of national mobilization of EFRTs and mobilization by various means such as transport planes of Self-Defense Forces or large helicopters, hutment training, and self-sufficient rear support exercises, such as Japan has done national exercises, and annual joint exercises of emergency fire response teams in block units.

Abstract:
The increasing number of natural disasters has demonstrated the importance of natural disaster risk management. There is little consensus regarding the role of stakeholder attributes in reducing flood damage and explaining stakeholder approaches. Local Councils are important stakeholders in flood risk management in transport infrastructure. Hence, the characteristics of floods, Local Councils’ stakeholder attributes, and the exposure and vulnerability of the socio-economic and transport infrastructure were contextualised to examine flood damage and Local Councils’ proactive and reactive approaches. This study examines three dominant Local Councils’ stakeholder attributes of power, legitimacy and urgency by focusing on flood damage and Local Councils’ proactive and reactive approaches. Data was collected from historical archive databases and a structured questionnaire survey involving Local Councils in New South Wales, Australia that covered the time period from 1992 to 2012. This data was analysed using multi-attribute decision-making and structural equation modelling with partial least square estimation approaches. The results show that the exposure and vulnerability of Australian states and territories to flood damage depend on both socio-economic and built environment conditions. The greater the flood characteristics such as frequency, severity and type, the greater the flood damage. The exposure and vulnerability of socio-economic and transport infrastructure of a Local Council have mediating effects on the direct relationship between their stakeholder attributes and flood damage. Proactive and reactive approaches by Local Councils are highly affected by stakeholder attributes. The developed stakeholder disaster response index shows that Local Councils have practised more reactive approaches than proactive approaches. Policy makers might use the stakeholder disaster response index through continuous assessment of proactive and reactive approaches to achieve a high level of flood risk management.

Abstract:
Cities face significant challenges in developing urban infrastructure systems in an inclusive, resilient, and sustainable manner, with rapid urbanization and increasing frequency of shocks (e.g., climate hazards, epidemics). The complex and dynamic interdependencies among urban social, technical, institutional, and natural components could cause disruptions to cascade across systems, and lead to heterogeneous recovery outcomes across communities and regions. Large scale data collected from mobile devices, including mobile phone GPS data, web search data, and social media data, allow us to observe urban dynamics before, during, and after disaster events in an unprecedented spatial-temporal granularity and scale. Despite these opportunities, we lack data-driven methods to understand the underlying mechanisms that govern the recovery and resilience of cities to shocks.
Such dynamical models, in contrast to static index based metrics of resilience, will allow us to test the effects of policies on the heterogeneous post-disaster recovery trajectories across space and time.

In this dissertation, I studied the recovery dynamics and resilience of urban systems to disasters using a large-scale human-centered data-driven modeling approach, with particular emphasis on the complex interdependencies among social, economic, and infrastructure systems. First, statistical analysis of large-scale human mobility data collected from over 1 million mobile phone devices in five major disaster events across the globe, revealed universal population recovery processes across regions and disasters, including disproportionate disaster effects based on income inequalities and urban-rural divide. Second, human mobility data are used to infer the recovery of various socio-economic systems after disasters. Using Bayesian causal inference models, regional and business sectoral inequalities in disaster recovery are quantified. Finally, the analysis on social, economic, and physical recovery were integrated into a dynamical model of coupled urban systems, which captures the bi-directional interdependencies among socio-economic and physical infrastructure systems during disaster recovery. Using the model and data collected from Puerto Rico during Hurricane Maria, a trade-off relationship in urban development is revealed, where developed cities with robust centralized infrastructure systems have higher recovery efficiency of critical services, however, have socio-economic networks with lower self-reliance during crises, which lead to loss of community resilience. Managing and balancing the socio-economic self-reliance alongside physical infrastructure robustness is key to resilience.

The proposed models and results presented in this dissertation lay the scientific foundations of urban complexity and resilience, encouraging us to move towards dynamical and complex systems modeling approaches, from conventional static index-based resilience metrics. Big data-driven, dynamical complex systems modeling approaches enable quantitative understanding of the underlying disaster recovery process (e.g., interdependencies, feedbacks, cascading effects) across large spatial and temporal time scales. The approach is capable of proposing community-based policies for urban resilience via cross-regional comparisons and counterfactual scenario testing of various policy levers.

Abstract:
Metropolitan area consists of huge population density, one or more urban areas, satellite cities, rural areas and towns. It highly concentrates economic activities to attract people from rural areas and is a complex spatial structures and reached a milestone in the development of road infrastructure to support transportation systems. Due to increase in the number of vehicles, many traffic related problems have arised, such as increase in delays, wastage of resources, high traffic accidents, economic losses, environmental pollution, security, privacy, etc. These problems are solved by using Intelligent Public Transportation System (IPTS), which consists of advanced technologies for transportation engineering including information technology (IT), computational intelligence, system control technology and system engineering. These advanced technologies play significant role in reducing traffic congestion, traffic accidents, traffic pollution, energy consumption and improving road traffic safety. In this thesis, we have designed IPTS for public transport in a metropolitan area. It consists of 5 major functional units, such as commuters’ arrival prediction, transport resource allocation, privacy preservation, context-based service management and transport management. We have used Emergent Intelligence (EI) technique with agents, as it is efficiently used, in several applications for collecting, analyzing, monitoring, and sharing information. Also, it takes dynamic decisions to give independence to each agent to take a decision. Some of these features are essential for public transport system. First, we have designed Commuters’ Arrival Prediction (CAP) scheme, which analyzes and predicts commuters’ patterns in the bus station using commuters’ arrival density, resource availability, history, and dynamic arrivals of commuters and vehicles. The proposed scheme provides an accurate analysis and prediction of commuters’ arrival density pattern at each bus station in the vicinity of transport depot. The predicted commuters’ density will be used to choose an optimal route to reach the desired destination in a metropolitan area. We have designed a Transport Resource Allocation (TRA) scheme using EI technique. The proposed scheme efficiently manages and provides resource over space and time based on predicted commuters’ arrival pattern, availability of resources, history, deficit resources and surplus resources of neighborhood transport depots. The EI technique is used to collect, analyze and share resources, reliability of resources, reliability of neighborhood depots, resource gathering time delay reliability and travel time reliability. We have built an analytical model for TRA scheme using discrete time Markov chain to analyse the system at steady state. The proposed scheme optimally allocates reliable resources and provides reliable public transport services to the commuters. In the metropolitan area, there will be privacy breach during communication among transport depot’s staff and agents, which results in anomalies like impersonation, malicious activities and greedy behavior and they lead to issues, such as traffic accidents, wastage of resources, delays, etc. For this, we have designed Public Transport Depot Privacy Preservation Scheme (PTDPPS) using EI technique in a metropolitan area. The proposed scheme consists of two phases: First, policy based privacy preservation for depot staff and Second, pseudonymous authentication based privacy preservation for communicating agents. The proposed scheme preserves privacy of resources, vehicle dispatch, allocation, private and public information of transport depot staff during communication inside and outside the transport depot. In a metropolitan area, managing and providing suitable services are difficult or impossible due to the non-linear and complex nature of transportation system. Thus, we have designed Context based Public Transportation Service Management (CPTSM). The EI technique is used for collecting, analyzing and sharing context information of vehicles, staff, commuters, routes, bus station units and environmental. The collected and analyzed context information are used to develop the policies to provide relevant services to commuters. The proposed system makes public transportation system most reliable and efficient for the commuters. We have designed an efficient public transportation management system in a metropolitan area by combining CAP, TRA, PTDPPS, and CPTSM, and made as a single entity at a transport depot in a metropolitan area. We have presented management of public transportation during normal conditions and disaster situations in one of the zone in the vicinity of transport depot using EI technique in a metropolitan area. During normal conditions, we have estimated and predicted the commuters’ arrival pattern and their density, and also estimated and allocated the resources at every bus stations. Using these information public transportation management is done at every bus stations in the vicinity of transport depot. During the disaster situations, proposed evacuation management system estimates boundary of disaster, evacuation exit points, victims density, severity of victims and resources required. The evacuation management system assigns fraction of victims to the desired destination through multiple evacuation exit points, and avoids the occurrence of secondary disaster in the same disaster zone in the metropolitan area. In summary, we have used EI technique with agents to design: 1) commuters’ arrival prediction, which efficiently analyzes and predicts the commuters arrival density; 2) transport resource allocation scheme, which dynamically allocates optimal resources; 3) privacy preservation schemes, which preserves the privacy of transport depot staff and agents; 4) context based service management, which efficiently makes use of context information of various transportation entities to provide accurate services; and 5) transport management for evacuation of victims, which effectively manages the disaster victims. We have simulated above mentioned schemes in different scenarios with various performance parameters. The results obtained in simulation and analysis show the importance of the approaches and effectiveness of the proposed system

Abstract:
Regrettably, no year passes without some form of major incident occurring somewhere in the United Kingdom. To the traditional threats of transport, industrial, and natural disasters has been added the possibility of a major terrorist atrocity such as the London bombings of 7 July 2005 or the recent marauding gun attacks in Paris. The international situation continues to suggest that the likelihood of further similar attacks is a question of when, rather than if. That said, for most professional responders, a transport incident such as the GNER crash at Great Heck, a chemical incident such as Flixborough, or an environmental catastrophe like Boscastle is probably the most likely type of incident that they will be involved in. The key to a successful response lies in preparedness and effective planning built upon up-to-date knowledge and a full awareness of relevant policy and procedures. The recent enquiry into the emergency services response to ‘7/7’ highlighted a number of failings while also complementing the individuals from all services and specialities who offered aid. Although, due to the nature of this incident being especially sensitive, it is clear that the emergency services response to any incident will be subject to intense public scrutiny—both official and via the media. There is a clear need to establish a core knowledge base which extends beyond individual professional boundaries and hence the need for this manual. The Oxford Manual of Major Incident Management will, for the first time, bring together and integrate the key facts for potential emergency responders to, or who may be involved in the planning and preparation for, a major incident of any type or scale.

Abstract:
AbstractRecently, Wadi flash floods (WFFs) have happened frequently in arid environments, resulting in great damage the society and the environment. In Oman, severe WFFs have occurred repeatedly within the last 10 years causing a huge impact on human lives and properties. This paper aims at introducing the framework of an international collaboration project between Japan and Oman for WFF management considering sediment dynamics and climate changes. Four research groups were established: climate change (G1), rainfall-runoff modeling (G2), sediment yield and transport (G3), and sedimentation and infiltration processes (G4). Several field investigations were conducted since 2017 until now. The detailed field survey to assess the deposited sediment in a dry reservoir by using sediment bars, and infiltration test, as well as drone survey were addressed. Some of the preliminary results and findings from the field investigation is discussed. The results show there is an adverse impact of sedimentation clogging on the infiltration process at the reservoirs. Based on the historical rainfall data analysis, there is a systematic increasing trend of the annual average precipitation with remarkable cycles over the MENA region and Oman. The knowledge obtained from this project is expected to be valuable to understanding sediment dynamics at Wadi basins.

Abstract:
Over the last few years, with the rise of natural/man-made disasters, the importance of the humanitarian supply chain has also received a significant value. Humanitarian supply chain performs under special circumstances compared to commercial supply chain such as lack of communication system, electricity, and destabilized transport infrastructure after a disaster. However, disasters are unpredictable; therefore, the demand for supplies (relief items), casualties, and required transportation modes to access the affected area are also unpredictable. Thus, the integration of different modes of transportation is essential to encounter any disaster situation promptly, such as disasters in South Asia in 2001, which caused the death of thousands due to lack of transport infrastructure, inadequate disaster relief planning, and lack of transport integration.

Abstract:
After a major disaster, commercial supply and delivery activities suffer serious problems because transport infrastructures can be damaged, destroyed, inactive, or restricted. During the first months of 2017 in Peru, the phenomenon of the coastal El Niño increased rainfall along the coast, which caused the blockage of numerous roads and bridges that affected one and a half million people. This situation caused many companies to halt their distribution logistics operations. For this reason cabotage was considered to replace traditional transport to merchandise by road. Maritime cabotage consists of the transport of loads and people considering short distances and low-medium loads. This research tackles increasing resilience distribution using cabotage as an option to transport merchandise in post-disaster scenario through a Peruvian processed food company based on empirical evidence. Results show that cabotage service is in process to mature in Peru. The company analyzed showed positive results during the coastal El Niño 2017 phenomenon.

Abstract:
It is possible to carry out logistics operations in a highly efficient and reliable manner with internet of things technologies. These technologies increase the added value of logistics activities and expand their benefits in the supply chain. Logistic activities are a sine qua non of disaster management. The active use of internet of things during disaster preparedness stage, during disaster, and after disaster, in warehouse and material management, fleet and transport management is an important technological milestone which will greatly increase productivity. Right place, right time, right quantity, right quality, and right price rule is known as 5 Right rule in logistics. In disaster logistics, only the price is excluded from these rules because it does not matter if human life is concerned. Strategic approaches, which are provided by IoT technology, are key to efficiently carry out 5 Right rule in disaster logistics.

Abstract:
The demand for data capacity has been growing, especially in the aviation and maritime industries and is expected to continue to grow in the foreseeable future. The satellite industry is moving to High Throughput Satellite (HTS) that are characterized by large numbers of small spot beams, frequency reuse, higher Equivalent Isotropically Radiated Power (EIRP) and higher Gain to Noise Temperature (G/T) to meet growing capacity demand. Multi-Port Amplifiers (MPA) increase the flexibility of HTS systems by allowing capacity to be allocated dynamically based on changing demand. This will allow capacity requirements to be planned based on the sum of the requirements across all beams rather than the peaks in each HTS beam. The authors propose a ground based solution that will maximize resource utilization of an HTS with an MPA and deliver the capacity dynamically based on demand. Maritime, commercial aviation, satellite based cellular backhaul, and disaster recovery services are the main applications that can benefit from the solution they propose. The authors' results show significant reduction in the overall capacity requirements because of the more efficient utilization of the satellite resources.

Abstract:
Abstract Japan’s major ports must be reorganized as part of the changes in the country’s industrial structure. The Port Management Bodies of the major ports intend to formulate or revise the Port Plan due to these changes. On the other hand, in Japan, the occurrence of large-scale tsunamis or high tide that exceeds H.H.W.L are expected in the future. When port facilities are damaged by these natural disasters and port functions are paralyzed, the logistics base of the bulk cargo (crude oil, iron ore, coal etc.) which is not suitable for transport by land is more likely to suffer damage because the logistics base is located near the port. The logistics base of the bulk cargo (cereals, automobiles, etc.) and the container cargo which are suitable for long-distance transport by land suffers less damage. The reason for such less damage is that the logistics base is generally located a long way from the port. Port logistics can be restored early with non-damaged ports. In recent years, Japan also saw increasing damages caused by rising sea levels and growing scale of typhoons due to the influence of climate change. Today, it is necessary to verify that tsunamis and high tide occur at the same time. The authors points out the importance of the backup ports using the sacrifice model considering the characteristics of such port logistics, and then, the importance of formulating or revising the port plans to reduce disaster damage from overtopping volumes caused by rising sea levels using Takayama’s method and CADMAS-SURF. Finally, the authors propose the importance of formulating or revising the port plans to reduce disaster damage to realize these points and to prepare for large-scale natural disasters.
