Virtual testbed for multi-risk assessment
Urban areas may be considered as hotspots for disaster risk. The intrinsic complexity and interdependency of urban systems in a multi-risk framework call for integrated, system-based approaches to understand and model multi-risk processes and to support effective Disaster Risk Management (DRM) and Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) strategies. In this context, Virtual Testbeds (VTBs) have emerged as effective instruments for the development, benchma…
Virtual testbed for multi-risk assessment
Urban areas are characterized by high level of exposure in terms of population, assets, and highly interconnected systems, which can lead to multiple cascading effects under single and multi-hazards scenarios. Effective disaster risk management requires integrated approaches and models that account for hazard interactions as well as cascading effects within urban systems, but real-world application is often limited by data availability and coordi…
Multi-hazard risk assessment in coastal urban settlements
Over the past few decades, economic losses from natural hazards have continued to increase due to the combined effects of climate change, population growth, and rapid urbanization in hazard-prone areas. This effect is particularly relevant in coastal urban areas, where high population density, critical infrastructure concentration, and exposure to multiple hazards may generate complex, spatially heterogeneous risk conditions. In such contexts, tr…
A tool to assess road interruption due to earthquake-induced collapse of infill walls in RC buildings
Roads are essential for both normal transportation and emergency operations, but earthquakes can block them by damaging structures and causing debris to fall onto the pavement. Recent studies show that the debris from both structural and non-structural components can spread beyond a building's footprint, sometimes occupying a significant portion of the adjacent road. When this happens, emergency services may not be able to pass, and evacuation ro…
Integrating multi-hazard, socio-physical information in a holistic index for decision making on disaster risk reduction
Effective disaster risk management (DRM) requires a contextual understanding of the underlying risks that should account for: (1) the effects of multiple (natural) hazards on the systems/communities of interest; and (2) social vulnerability factors that influence how different sectors within a given community experience, respond to and cope with these effects. We propose a straightforward multi-hazard risk index for guiding high-level DRM decisio…
A mechanics-based procedure for the structural assessment of infilled RC buildings under overpressures generated by pyroclastic density currents
The recent seismic activity of the Phlegrean Fields has drawn attention to the potential impact of volcanic eruptions in densely urbanized areas. Among the volcanic processes, the formation of pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) poses a significant threat to residential buildings because of the large dynamic overpressures generated during the explosion. This study introduces a simple mechanics-based method, called STAM-PYR (STructural Assessment …
Multi-risk assessment in transboundary areas
A methodology for identifying, documenting and extrapolating potential good practices in disaster risk management
Making evidence-based decisions in Disaster Risk Management is crucial for practitioners. However, it remains unclear how to systematically identify and characterise potential good practices to build upon available experiences. This paper proposes a methodology for identifying, documenting, and extrapolating potential good practices in Disaster Risk Management from the literature with a procedure that consists of five steps. Step 1 involves defin…
The use of machine-learning methods for post-earthquake building usability assessment
The assessment of building usability in the aftermath of an earthquake is mostly aimed at post-event emergency management, but it is also valuable for the planning of risk-reduction policies. In the seismic risk assessment field, the development of suitable consequence functions that correlate physical damage to usability and serviceability of structures is crucial to evaluate the expected social and economic losses in a region of interest. Predi…
