A computer software for the substitutional experience of earthquake disaster developed for disaster safety personnel of local administrations

在总结已有震害评估方法的基础上，开发了一套计算机软件，为地方政府灾害安全人员提供震害替代经验。我们的设计意图是帮助地方政府组织有效的准备工作。在第一阶段中，我们讨论了如何使用该软件，处理了哪些损伤项，如何估计损伤，以及如何准备输入数据，对软件进行了概述。我们决定设计这个软件，这样它就可以定量地评估在任何给定地震烈度下参考地点的市政当局内的破坏分布。在第二阶段，开发了一个原型模型，其中包含一个假设目标区域的区域数据库。该模型处理了15个项目，包括建筑物损坏、设施损坏、生命线(电力、供水和燃气系统)、伤亡和火灾突发。在第三阶段，开发了一个特定区域的区域数据库，以长冈、新泻为例，实现了一个适用于该城市的模型。此外，在第三阶段，我们还从作为灾害应对培训系统、作为恢复过程和其他长期影响的估计系统以及作为与地震仪配合工作的快速估计系统的角度讨论了该软件的未来发展方向。

Collecting existing methods for estimating earthquake damage, we developed a computer software for providing disaster safety personnel of local administrations with substitutional experience of earthquake disaster. Our design intention was to help local administrations organize effective preparedness.The study was done in three staes as follows. In the first stage, discussing how the software can bve used, which damage items are dealt with, how damage is estimated, and how input data are prepared, we described an outline of the software. We decided to design the software so that it can quantitatively evaluate damage distribution within a municipality at any given seismic intensity at a reference site. In the second stage, a prototype model with a regional database for a hypothetical target area was developed. The model dealt with 15 items including building damage, facility damage of lifelines (power, water, and gas systems), deaths and injuries, and fire breakout. In the third stage, developing a regional database for a specific area, taking Nagaoka, Niigata as an example, we realized a model applicable to the city. Also, in the third stage, we discussed future directions of the software from the view points of its improvement as a training system for disaster response, as an estimation system for restoration processes and other long-term effects, and as a rapid estimation system working with a seismometer.
