Pre-event dam failure analyses for emergency management
Bozkuş, Zafer (2001-12-01)
Simultaneous dam-break analyses of two dams, namely the Nilüfer and Doǧanci dams, due to a breach in their bodies, were performed under various hydraulic conditions. Both of the dams are located in the same river branch of the Nilufer Basin in the province of Bursa in Turkey. The main purpose of the study was to see the negative effects of such failure on the city of Bursa, which is located downstream of the dams, as well as to make available the results of the study to the relevant public officials for the...
Post-disaster relief distribution under road vulnerabilities and aftershocks
Baksı, Bikem Bennu; Çelik, Melih; Department of Industrial Engineering (2017)
In this thesis, a two-stage stochastic mixed integer programming approach is proposed to determine the two types of post-disaster decisions, namely relief distribution with direct/ lateral transshipment and emergency roadway repair simultaneously, under the risk of potential aftershocks. Two objective functions are considered: minimization of the demand-weighted total travel time subject to satisfying all demand (efficacy-based), and minimizing the maximum unsatisfied demand over all demand points (equity-b...
Post-disaster Sensor-based Condition Assessment of Buildings to Develop Evacuation Strategies
Ergin, T,; S,, Baltası; Erberik, Ma; Kurc, O,; Ergen, E,; Birgönül, Mustafa Talat (null; 2012-06-29)
This study focuses on sensor-based, real-time condition assessment of buildings during and after multi-hazard emergencies and it is based on the idea that; the spatial distribution of damage in a building can be monitored by the help of different types of sensors. The number and locations of these sensors are arranged in such a way that it becomes possible to picture the current condition of the building. Sensors utilized in this study can be listed as accelerometer, ultrasonic range finder, gyroscope, clos...
Pre-Positioning Disaster Response Facilities and Relief Items
RENKLİ, Cigdem; Duran, Serhan (2015-07-04)
Large-scale disasters cause enormous damage to people living in the affected areas. Providing relief quickly to the affected is a critical issue in recovering the effects of a disaster. Pre-disaster planning has an important role on reducing the arrival time of relief items to the affected areas and efficiently allocating them. In this study, a mixed integer programming model is proposed in order to pre-position warehouses throughout a potential affected area and determine the amount of relief items to be h...
