Modelling post-earthquake building recovery under human resource constraints
Demand surge phenomenon as a result of shortages of human resources needed for post-disaster recovery and reconstruction can be detrimental to recovery outcomes. To quantify the impact of human resource constraints on the recovery of an urban environment, this research introduces a novel Dynamic Stochastic Queuing (DSQ) model, revealing such dynamic interplays over time. Central to this model is the incorporation of a spectrum of socioeconomic fa…
Determining the critical factors for realising successful post-disaster reconstruction projects in the Caribbean
Business as usual project management practice may not be applicable in the recovery of the built environment following a disaster. Unfortunately, little research has been undertaken to understand the nature of post-disaster recovery projects and the requirements for their success in the Caribbean. The Caribbean islands' exposure and susceptibility to natural hazards make it essential to understand what constitutes successful post-disaster reconst…
Identifying critical factors affecting the livelihood recovery following disasters
Challenges in construction material supply for post-disaster transport infrastructure recovery
Purpose This paper aims to investigate the challenges faced by the transport infrastructure sector in its civil construction material supply processes, following the 2016 Kaikoura earthquake in New Zealand. Design/methodology/approach A case study approach was adopted, which included on-site observations, semi-structured interviews and literature-based desktop reviews. Findings The research findings show that there were supply problems for aggreg…
Effects of climate change on health and wellbeing
The health and wellbeing effects of climate change events have gained much attention from decision makers and academia over the past decade. Using a systematic review approach, this paper aims to present an improved understanding of how different climate change events have impacted on people's health and/or wellbeing. A thorough review of 93 articles following a PRISMA and SALSA protocol revealed nine climate change events, of which heat waves an…
Livelihood recovery for sustainable development
Improving human resource mobilisation for post-disaster recovery
A metric of indicators and factors for assessing livelihood preparedness
A framework of livelihood preparedness for disasters
A conceptual framework for measuring livelihood resilience
Resource challenges for housing reconstruction
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to identify resourcing challenges that face housing rebuild following the 2009 Victorian “Black Saturday” bushfires in Australia and to examine the impacts of resource shortages on longer term community recovery. Design/methodology/approach The research methodology included a longitudinal study which consists of a questionnaire survey, field‐based interviews and observations to track trends evident in the surv…
