This paper explores the application of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) in predictive modelling for seismic events and flood risks, with a particular focus on forecasting extreme quantile events that exceed historica...

Rainfall prediction efforts had been prevalent ever since the impact of climate change on occurrences of natural disasters globally. Implementation of machine and deep learning techniques on features that contribute to r...

This study aimed to validate the Zarit Burden Interview (ZBI) among caregivers of elderly tsunami survivors in Aceh,Indonesia. In contexts characterized by disasters or significant social disruption, such as the aftermat...

The complex geological environment and frequent natural disasters on the Qinghai–Tibetan plateau pose significant challenges to the reliability of the regional highway transportation network. In this paper, a severity ...

In the Croniche di Lucca, which covers the period of Lucca’s history from 1168 to 1424, we read about many natural disasters. We can read in detail about the lean years of 1181, 1284, 1330, 1348–1350, and 1400, and t...

Abstract BackgroundHealth and health care systems are progressively challenged by more frequent natural and human-caused hazards. A hazard becomes a disaster when vulnerability and exposure interact in comple...

Abstract Early and reliable smoke detection is critical for preventing fire-related disasters, safeguarding human lives, and ensuring infrastructure safety. Conventional sensor-based systems, however, are often constrain...

Landslide are one of the disasters that occur in sloping areas. It occurs very often when the intensity of rainfall is high. Apart from that, it occurs in an area known as a slip area. The slip area is characterized by c...

Optimal evacuation route planning is a crucial factor in disaster mitigation, especially in areas with limited communication infrastructure. This study proposes the application of the A-Star method for evacuation route o...

Today, climate change has become a global crisis threatening not only the environment but also economic, social, and political systems worldwide. This situation necessitates the systematic analysis of both the drivers co...

Orientation: Brand awareness (BAW) and brand association (BASS) are important aspects in driving brand resonance (BR) to improve loyalty. Research purpose: This study examines how BR fosters customer loyalty (CL) among...

Floods occur when the volume of water exceeds the capacity of containment or the normal flow of water channels, such as rivers, lakes, canals, or drainage systems. In 2021 and 2022, there were 88 flood disasters in Semar...

Background: Natural disasters pose significant risks to vulnerable populations, particularly pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding women, who face increased health and safety challenges during emergencies. Strengthenin...

ABSTRAK Indonesia merupakan negara yang tidak memiliki satu pun wilayah dengan indeks risiko bencana alam yang rendah. Namun demikian, kebijakan pengurangan risiko bencana (PRB) di Indonesia masih menghadapi tantangan...

ABSTRACT Background: Climate change and widespread environmental degradation have increased the risk of natural hazards in recent decades. Hydrological, meteorological, and climatological disasters have become more frequ...

Abstract Background Crush syndrome (consisting of hyperkalemia, acidosis, hypocalcemia, and acute kidney injury), is the second-most common cause of death in earthquakes, and a frequent cause of critical illness after bu...

ObjectiveExtremely thick aquifers in mining areas typically exhibit strong heterogeneity and high water yield. Therefore, they are prone to cause severe water inflow in mines and induce water disasters, representing a ma...

In the loess regions loess landslide is one of the major geological disasters. Every year it results in a large number of casualties and destructions. It is found that the average shear stress on the sliding surface of t...

IntroductionFlood risk assessment has become increasingly important in regions vulnerable to climate-induced disasters. This study addresses the need for a robust decision-support framework by proposing a hybrid multi-cr...

During the golden-time phase of urban disasters, emergency response systems must issue timely directives that remain compliant with jurisdictional policies and regulations, even when early human reports precede reliable ...

Abstract Three tragic events from aviation history were examined using a Historical Research and Case Study Method. The events explored were the disasters of the Airship R101 (1930), the Space Shuttle Challenger (1986) ...

AbstractPublic health emergencies such as pandemics, natural disasters, and epidemics may require rapid, high-stakes decisions often made by elected officials with limited public health training. Artificial intelligence ...
