An Integrated Metric for Analysing Disaster-specific Resilience

Abstract

Evaluating the resilience of complex systems has been a rising topic for researchers and policy makers but there has been developed only few assessment metrics yet. This paper presents an integrated metric for quantifying both community resilience and disaster-specific resilience. To demonstrate the practical utilization of the integrated metric for analyzing the real-world case, we have scored HNS-specific resilience of hub harbour cities in Korea. The score analysis of each sub-index is straightforward guidance for decision maker to improve the resilience of community Keywords - Disaster-specific indicators, Integrated metric, HNS, Sub-index score analysis
