Optimizing fluvial flood mitigation strategies: A multi-objective approach for cost-effective and socially-aware infrastructure feasibility analysis
Effective levee planning must balance capital cost, risk reduction, and community priorities. These objectives are rarely optimized together. This study presents a feasibility phase, simulation-in-the-loop framework that couples terrain-based flood modeling with a socially aware multi-objective optimizer. Flood risk is measured as Expected Annual Exposed Population (EAEP), obtained by integrating exposure over Annual Exceedance Probability (AEP) …
A unified framework for automated damage assessment in post-disaster built environments using LiDAR point clouds
Natural disasters continue to cause substantial economic losses and societal disruptions worldwide, underscoring the urgent need for accurate and timely disaster impact assessments. Traditional approaches to post-disaster damage evaluation, particularly those relying on manual inspections or limited data sources, often fail to capture the complex and localized impacts on the built environment. These limitations hinder effective disaster response …
Land-use analysis using infrastructure representations and high-resolution flood inundation mapping techniques
Bioguided isolation of anti-inflammatory and anti-urolithiatic active compounds from the decoction of Cissus gongylodes leaves
Using Q-methodology to discover disaster resilience perspectives from local residents
A framework to enhance disaster debris estimation with AI and aerial photogrammetry
Closing the Climate Gap: Insights from Local Knowledge for Climate Adaptation Planning
Problem, research strategy, and findings Although theory and practice contend that local knowledge improves climate adaptation planning, little research has documented the kinds of information shared by residents. Planners can use this information to assist in the creation of planning processes and tools, as well as investigate how local knowledge contributes—or does not contribute—to planning outcomes. We developed a provisional typology of how …
Creating meeting grounds for transdisciplinary climate research: The role of humanities and social sciences in grand challenges
In this position paper, we use the example of The University of Texas at Austin's Planet Texas 2050 (PT2050) to argue that the Grand Challenge (GC) framework for ambitious research initiatives must create meeting grounds for transdisciplinary integration of science, technology, engineering, mathematics (STEM), arts, and humanities, along with community perspectives. We trace the historical trajectory of GCs, and reframe GC initiatives within the …
