- Abstract
- Disrupted critical infrastructure systems following disasters can result in population outmigration which may subsequently negatively impact a communitys indirect socioeconomic losses over time. In this study, a community was modeled with its interconnected physical-socio-economic attributes and population outmigration was used as a basic proxy community resilience metric. The probability of outmigration for each household was assessed based on the probability that the school-age students, household residents, and employees in the household are affected over a prescribed time period from the occurrence of the hazard to the full restoration of the community. Finally, the potential population outmigration for the community was assessed by aggregating the probability for all the households in the community. Additionally, a prediction model for the number of injuries and fatalities was implemented in the analysis to be served as a community-level life-safety metric. Ultimately, these metrics were combined and utilized to propose a framework for disaggregation of a set of community-level objectives into a set of performance targets for the components of the built environment. Such a model is desirable for policymakers and community leaders in order to make long-term decisions for their community.
