文摘

In order to develop a methodology for interactive risk assessments of physical infrastructure and spatially distributed response systems subjected to debris flows, an overall framework was set up. The proposed framework is composed of three fields, namely geotechnical engineering, GIS and disaster management. With the integration of slope stability analysis, hazard scenario and microzonation from three fields respectively, geological conditions are considered as temporary static data, while considering meteorological conditions as dynamic data, with a focus on the hazards resulted from typhoons. In this research, the relevant parameters required for database building are defined, and the procedures for building geological database and meteorological data sets are explained. Finally, based on the concepts and database, Nantou and Hualien in Taiwan are taken as the areas for case studies. The needs for the Rapid Needs Assessment (RNA) System are highlighted.;Keywords. debris flow, disaster, hazard, risk, vulnerability, hazard scenario, microzonation, slope stability, rapid needs assessment.
