High-impact low-probability events
Due to their rarity, large-magnitude hazards are often ignored in disaster risk analysis, leaving societies with unmitigated exposure and limited preparedness. Volcanic eruptions of Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI) 7 magnitude occur once or twice per millennium, with the last in 1815. Due to increasing populations and interdependent infrastructure, such an event happening today would be catastrophic. Assessing exposure is challenging due to the l…
Developing empirical fragility functions for lava flow building damage
Fragility functions are vital tools in volcanic risk assessments to evaluate the probability of damage to structures at given hazard intensities. Traditionally, lava flow damage is assumed to be binary , whereby in contact with lava results in complete destruction and not in contact with lava remains undamaged. However, past studies present examples of structures exhibiting resistance to lava and not destruction . Developing empirical fragility f…
