Risk, Assessment, Modeling and Decision Support
Author: Ann Bostrom and Steven P. French | Size: 9.56 MB | Format: PDF | Publisher: Springer | Year: 2008 | pages: 339 | ISBN: 978-3-540-71157-5
Volume 14. Risk, Governance and Society
The collected papers in this volume integrate the results from current research efforts in earthquake engineering with research from the larger risk assessment community. The authors include researchers from the major U.S. earthquake centers and some from abroad as well as programmers and analysts from leading insurance and risk assessment firms. Four key components of risk assessment and decision support software are analyzed in detail in the papers: treatment of uncertainty, loss assessment, modeling of seismic mitigation strategies, and visualization of risk and uncertainty. Contributions come from senior experts in the natural hazards research community, as well as from senior scholars from other related fields. The volume lays out a road map for future developments in seismic risk modeling and decision support and helps earthquake engineering researchers position their work within the family of risk analysis tools and techniques.
