ABSTRACT
To recover from emergency is a very important action. A fast and efficient recovery is capable to reduce the loss of disaster and prevent the public panic. In this paper, the concept and classification of recoverability is defined, and a quantitative measurement to recoverability assessment is proposed. Afterwards, an optimization model of recoverability process is established to minimize the recovery time and optimize the allocation of resources. Finally, a practical example is given as a case study.
Keywords: emergency management, recoverability assessment, optimization model
1. INTRODUCTION
During the past few years, different kinds of emergent events including natural disasters, industrial accidents, public health and social safety incidents occurred frequently and caused a great loss to people’s lives and properties. Recovery of emergent events plays a crucial role in emergency management in the sense that a fast and efficient recovery is able to reduce the loss of disaster. The recovery process not only includes the restoration of property, also to save human life. The primary task after a disaster is the salvage of human and property, which can only prevent the deterioration of situation, but can not make it better. The final objective of recovery is to bring the society back to plete or near normal status of regular operations. Therefore the measure to recoverability, ., the capability or possibility of affected body back to normal operations as well as th
