Exploring disaster ontologies from Chinese and Western perspectives
Purpose This paper explores ontological assumptions of disasters and introduces some concepts from Chinese disaster scholarship. The authors suggest an approach to explore and engage with different ontologies of disaster without direct comparison, that can further interdisciplinary and cross-cultural collaboration. Design/methodology/approach By reviewing the academic literature and focussing on two recent key translational texts by Chinese schol…
The influence of the physical environment on self-recovery after disasters in Nepal and the Philippines
Extending natural hazard impacts
Disruptions to transportation networks by natural hazard events cause direct losses (e.g. by physical damage) and indirect socio-economic losses via travel delays and decreased transportation efficiency. The severity and spatial distribution of these losses varies according to user travel demands and which links, nodes or infrastructure assets are physically disrupted. Increasing transport network resilience, for example by targeted mitigation st…
