Research on the Platform for Earthquake Risk Communication
نویسندگان
چکیده
China is one of the countries with high strong earthquakes, which have a profound effect on China. Wenchuan earthquake caused more than 87 thousand deaths and a direct economic loss of 845.1 billion RMB in May 2008. Earthquake risk communication (ERC) is the effective way to achieve the strategic objective of earthquake risk reduction, but a sound platform for ERC has not been established in China. The advantages and disadvantages of the existed communication platforms and means have been summarized and the framework of new internet-based ERC platform has been proposed in this paper.

Test and Evaluation of Patient Tracking Platform: Use of Near Field Communication
In an earthquake situation, medical response communities such as field and referral hospitals are being challenged with injured victims’ identification and tracking. In our project, we developed a patient tracking platform (PTP). In this platform, first responders triage the patients with an electronic tag that reports the location and some information of each patient during his or her movement...
متن کاملEffect of earthquake directional uncertainty on the seismic response of jacket-type offshore platform
In the seismic risk assessment of structures, two main random variables are involved, namely the vulnerability of the structure and the seismic action. The aim of the study presented here is to analyze the seismic behavior of the jacket-type offshore platforms as an expensive and vital structure. Furthermore, the influence of the incidence angle of the seismic action is also investigated by usi...

متن کاملSeismic Behavior of Jacket Offshore Platform Subjected to Near and Far Field Ground Motions
Offshore structures such as jacket platforms have to inevitably be designed against sever environmental actions. In seismically active areas these structures also become susceptible to earthquake excitations. Strong ground motions recorded in recent earthquakes, including the 1995 Kobe, Japan, 1999 Chi-chi, Taiwan and 1999 Kocaeli, Turkey earthquakes, revealed that the dynamic motions in nea...
