Analysis Of Urban Earthquake Disaster Risk And Research Of Evaluation System Of Emergency Readiness Capability

As a huge exposure, City is increasingly becoming a centre of disaster prevention among international community. Mitigating urban earthquake disaster risk and improving earthquake disaster management capability is a realistic and challenging issue. Doing well preparing work before earthquake strikes is an important factor for advancing level of risk management and ensuring validity of post-disaster emergency. Evaluating earthquake emergency readiness capability is just a significant measure for weighing validity of such preparing work. Also, for the sake of furthest mitigating the loss of future earthquake, positive correlativity should exist between the earthquake emergency readiness capability and earthquake risk in a certain city. That is, the higher earthquake hazard is, the higher vulnerability of building is, the greater population and economy density is, the earthquake emergency readiness capability should be stronger. According to certain urban earthquake risk, researching evaluation system of earthquake emergency readiness capability which is connected with earthquake risk has realistic meaning for enhancing operations efficiency during emergency and mitigating casualty and economic loss.Based upon the current research production on disaster emergency capability, earthquake emergency readiness capability is judged by a multi-level index evaluation system and integrated multilayer fuzzy judgment model. This paper includes the following several aspects:At first, the concept of urban earthquake emergency readiness capability is expounded. When index system of urban earthquake emergency readiness is set up, six elements affecting the capability are proposed—organization system, emergency planning, the situation of earthquake and disaster, command technology, resource and community mobilization. Upon on these elements, a framework of evaluation system including a lot of specific indexes is developed.Secondly, as the best value of every index in the system is being confirmed, these indexes are divided into two sorts: some are connected with the number of casualty and the homeless, which exist in assurance of resource the others are not.
