Critical Infrastructure, Emergency Evacuation, and Logistics of Disaster Recovery 2014

This 2014 issue of the journal Transportation Research Record (TRR) is still relevant today, as we are seeing a busy hurricane season in the U.S., among other natural disasters. It summarizes ways to plan post-disaster operations in a highway network; mobility benefits of intermediate crossovers on contraflow facilities during hurricane evacuation; a model for investigating traffic incident impacts on evacuation times in large-scale emergencies; an approach for assessing climate change vulnerabilities in transportation infrastructure; and a cost assessment of highway bridge networks subjected to extreme seismic events.

Critical Infrastructure, Emergency Evacuation, and Logistics of Disaster Recovery 2014 also explores mathematical modeling of command-and-control strategies in crowd movement; a network flow solution method for optimal evacuation traffic routing and signal control with nonuniform threats; a simulation study of evacuation routes and traffic management strategies in short-notice emergency evacuation; and accessibility of low-income populations to safe zones during localized evacuations.

In addition, this TRR examines an efficient negative cycle-canceling algorithm for finding the optimal traffic routing for network evacuation with nonuniform threats; modeling and assessment of crossing elimination for no-notice evacuations; effects of phased evacuations on highway networks in megaregions; use of social media data to explore crisis informatics; use of mobile LiDAR data to assess hurricane damage and visualize community vulnerability; and experiences and lessons learned with urban ferries and catastrophic floods.
