“…However, in current preference revision methods of decision-makers, certain proposed strategies have randomness and uncertainty (Tamura and Cao 2012). Thus, the coordination interaction times may be increased and the coordination stability cannot be reached.…”

“…The social impact imposed by some destructive wind disasters was discussed. Thus it was considered as a systematic project to reduce the impact of wind disaster risk, which needs the close cooperation among different natural disaster management groups, academic groups, and non-academic groups (Tamura and Cao 2012). Regarding emergency rescue in disasters, a research framework was proposed, which includes the emergency organization and command of multiforces on strategy-battle-tactics level, the risk analysis of multidisasters events, the risk management and control of rescue, and so on (Zhi et al 2012).…”

In view of the risk characteristics of large group decision-making in emergencies and the difficultly in forming the decision scheme with low risk, the causes of generating risk in urgent group decisions are analyzed. The coordination framework for risk elimination in emergency decisions is constructed. The methods of risk measure and elimination for emergency decisions are proposed to construct the risk elimination coordination mechanism for emergency decisions so that the risk of emergency group decisions is gradually constringed to obtain the emergency decision scheme with risk degree low enough. Finally, an example case is used to validate the realization process and the validity of risk elimination coordination method and mechanism.

“…The majority of economic disaster losses in the world are caused by extreme wind related events, and global warming has the potential to further exacerbate this scenario through an increase in the number and intensity of weather-related disasters [1]. Wind-induced disasters have severely damaged buildings and other structures, agricultural and forestry products, etc., globally.…”

“…One of the cyclone damage mitigation measures for such dwellings is improving the performance of various structural components/joints of these dwellings by adopting better geometrical/structural/detailing schemes. It is emphasized that development of economy-level-dependent guidelines and costeffective retrofitting details for upgrading the residential roofs are necessary to manage the impact of wind-related disasters (Tamura andCao, 2012, Kopp et al, 2012). Hence, the proposed recommendations need to be affordable and cost-effective for immediate acceptance and adoption by the local people.…”

“…Based on these tests recommendations/guidelines have been formulated. As the improved science and technology needs to be transferred to all local communities to minimize the damage levels (Tamura and Cao, 2012), this paper also highlights the efforts made by CSIR-SERC in disseminating these recommendations/guidelines to the public through community programmes, posters and brouchers in vernacular languages corresponding to various coastal regions of India.…”

India is one of the cyclone/typhoon vulnerable countries with high annual frequency in the Asia-Pacific region. Majority of the Indian coastline accommodates several thousands of rural villages. The most common form of damage during the landfall of cyclones includes collapse of non-engineered and semi-engineered dwellings. For minimizing the extent of damage to such dwellings, it is preferable to maximize the strength of these dwellings by adopting affordable and cost-effective improvements in structural schemes using locally available materials, choice of plan shapes, better detailing procedures, etc. The paper initially highlights the surveys conducted in a few villages located in the east-coast of India during 1997-1999 based on a detailed questionnaire prepared by CSIR-SERC to collect information about the total number of non-engineered and semi-engineered dwellings along with details of materials and construction methodologies adopted. This paper presents various tests conducted for evaluating the strength of various components of different dwellings, which are fabricated using locally available/conventionally adopted materials, under various types of loading by considering generally adopted detailing and by considering better detailing approaches. The use of galvanized 'U' bolts for some of the critical joints in such houses are recommended to improve their resistance against cyclonic winds. Further, the formulated simple guidelines/recommendations based on these studies have been disseminated to the public through community programmes, posters and brouchers in vernacular languages corresponding to various coastal regions of India. These guidelines/recommendations have also been standardized [IS:15498 (2004)].
