SIMULTANEOUS SIMULATIONS OF FLOOD AND WALKING EVACUATION –A CASE STUDY IN KASHIMA CITY, JAPAN
T. Morita, K. Ohgushi
Abstract :
A safety of walking the evacuation is studied in the case of flood and inundation in Kashima City, Japan using flood and evacuation simulations. The result has become different from the official hazard map. In addition, it is found that shelters of the city are not always safe. In the evacuation simulation, the residents are modeled to go through the roads and to go toward the shelters of the city by a network model. This simulation gives not only the required time for the residents to evacuate to the shelters but also the ranges of the residents‘ movement for the evacuation. In some evacuation cases, some residents cannot reach to the present shelters in the city because many roads are inundated. The safety on the route is confirmed based on the result of flood and evacuation simulations. The location of the necessary shelter is groped each time during the simulations.
