The characteristics of judgments of the players that are inferred from the performance of the game are then incorporated into a multi-agent simulation as rules. The behavior of evacuees is evaluated in approximations of real situations, by using the agent simulation including different judgments of evacuees. Using the results of the simulation, effective methods are discussed for achieving the escape of the evacuees within a short time.展开更多

Based on data for the damage caused by four recent major earthquakes in Japan, we investigate the trends in the number of evacuees and evacuation centres after these disasters as well as the restoration processes for public utilities such as electricity, gas, water, and communication lines. We compare the restoration speeds and trends of the damaged infrastructure systems. We also propose various mathematical models to approximate the recovery trends using both evacuee-related data and damage recovery process data. These results can be used to design natural disaster mitigation policies not only in Japan, but also in other countries. The results of various statistical data analyses and mathematical modelling techniques are applied to provide policy suggestions.展开更多
