One of the SATREPS projects on earthquake and tsunami disaster mitigation technology in Peru has been promoted since March 2010 for a five-year period. The project focuses on five research fields, i.e., seismic motion and geotechnical, tsunamis, buildings, damage assessment, and disaster mitigation planning. Collaborative research has been carried out through joint experiments, observations, field surveys, computer simulations, seminars and workshops. With the Lima metropolitan area and the city of Tacna set as case study sites, two mega-thrust earthquakes have been simulated and their effects and countermeasures investigated. The simulation results have been validated by observation data and have been implemented in government policy. Young Peruvian engineers and scientists have also received training and education. This paper summarizes the progress and outcomes of the SATREPS project for earthquake and tsunami disaster mitigation in Peru.

Palu City is one of the provincial capitals in Indonesia which is right on the Equator line. In addition, this city is one of the many regions in the eastern part of Indonesia that have a considerable potential for natural disasters. The natural disaster that occurred in Palu on September 28, 2018 consisted of three types of disasters, the first was an earthquake, the second tsunami and the last was liquefaction. This natural disaster caused damage to supporting infrastructure and thousands of people died. The large number of fatalities illustrates that the preparation and preparedness of the community and local government authorities are still low, mainly due to a lack of knowledge and concern for these natural phenomena and their consequences. The earthquake and tsunami disaster that took place in the city of Palu Sigi and Donggala was a momentum to change the paradigm of disaster management by increasing community preparedness. This research tells the story of the phenomenon of the three natural disasters, also tried to explain the steps and design of disaster mitigation. Disaster Mitigation must be implemented to reduce the risk of natural disasters. Public policy about community preparedness towards disaster management is very important and urgent to do in order to reduce disaster risk. Disaster cases in Palu City as a case study are considered relevant for the implementation of disaster management systems.

Earthquakes often cause fatalities to human being. Unfortunately, the event of earthquakes cannot be forecasted. But, the hazard risk due to these earthquakes could be reduced if the geological, seismic and physical surface conditions are known. This reduction plays an important role in disaster mitigation. This paper discusses the development of a method for hazard risk analysis due to earthquakes. The development is based on the input parameters of the hazard and vulnerability components of a site being investigated. Each parameter is then rated, so the total rating of hazard and vulnerability input parameters is obtained. The comparison between the applied rating and the total rating of hazard and vulnerability input parameters results in an index of each input parameter, consecutively. Thus, the multiplication of indexes, (hazard and vulnerability), results in a hazard risk index. Based on the proposed hazard index, a case study in the city of Mataram of Lombok Island has been conducted. The result shows that the city of Mataram has a medium hazard risk index. This means that if an earthquake occurs in the city of Mataram, a medium scale of fatalities may be experienced by the city. However, this index should be considered as an early warning system in disaster mitigation. So, the real condition of the city should be evaluated in order to increase the degree of preparedness due to the event of earthquakes that could occur at any time.

Multiple attribute decision making (MADM) problem is one of the most common and popular research fields in the theory of decision science. A variety of methods have been proposed to deal with such problems. Nevertheless, many of them assumed that attribute weights are determined by different types of additional preference information which will result in subjective decision making. In order to solve such problems, in this paper, we propose a novel MADM approach based on cross-evaluation with uncertain parameters. Specifically, the proposed approach assumes that all attribute weights are uncertain. It can overcome the drawback in prior research that the alternatives’ ranking may be determined by a single attribute with an overestimated weight. In addition, the proposed method can also balance the mean and deviation of each alternative’s cross-evaluation score to guarantee the stability of evaluation. Then, this method is extended to a more generalized situation where the attribute values are also uncertain. Finally, we illustrate the applicability of the proposed method by revisiting two reported studies and by a case study on the selection of community service companies in the city of Hefei in China.

Spatial Plan

The issue of spatial planning becomes crucial for vulnerable areas. Padang, as one of the areas prone to earthquakes, needs to pay attention to the allocation of space. After the 2009 earthquake, it was recorded that Padang City had revised the Regional Spatial Plan (RTRW) twice, namely in 2010 and 2015. In the revised RTRW, mapping of the areas prone to earthquake and tsunami disaster. The purpose of this research is to explain the policy efforts made by the City of Padang in spatial planning based on disaster mitigation. This study used qualitative research methods. The technique of selecting informants using purposive sampling, primary data obtained from interviews, while secondary data from documentation and literature studies. Data analysis was performed using an interactive model. The results showed that the spatial planning in the city of Padang based on Regulation No. 4 of 2012 had paid attention to disaster-prone areas, it can be seen from the categorization of disaster-prone regions in the city of Padang. But there are still disaster-prone areas that even violate the rules of development. For this reason, Padang City Government needs to pay attention to building permit recommendations, especially in disaster-prone areas from the relevant agencies.Persoalan penataan ruang menjadi hal yang krusial bagi daerah yang rawan bencana. Padang sebagai salah satu daerah yang rawan terhadap bencana gempa bumi perlu memperhatikan peruntukan ruang. Setelah kejadian gempa tahun 2009, tercatat Kota Padang telah dua kali melakukan revisi terhadap Rencana Tata Tuang Wilayah (RTRW) yaitu tahun 2010 dan 2015. Dalam revisi RTRW tersebut telah dilakukan pemetaan terhadap daerah-daerah yang rawan bencana gempa dan tsunami. Tujuan dari Penelitian ini adalah untuk menjelaskan upaya-upaya kebijakan yang dilakukan oleh Kota Padang dalam penataan ruang yang berbasis mitigasi bencana. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode penelitian kualitatif. Teknik pemilihan informan dengan menggunakan purposive sampling, data primer diperoleh dari wawancara, sedangkan data sekunder dari dokumentasi dan studi pustaka. Analis data dilakukan dengan model interaktif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa penataan ruang di Kota Padang yang didasarkan pada perda No. 4 Tahun 2012 telah memperhatikan daerah rawan bencana, terlihat dari adanya pengkategorian daerah rawan bencana di Kota Padang. Namun masih terdapat daerah rawan bencana yang masih menyalahi aturan pembangunan. Untuk itu, pemerintah Kota padang perlu memperhatikan rekomendasi izin mendirikan bangunan terutama di daerah-daerah yang rawan bencana dari instansi-instansi yang terkait.

Abstract. Flood processes and effects are examined, concerning two rivers in an urbanized area in North-Western Italy (Piedmont – Cuneo Plain). In May 2008, some areas in Northern Italy were struck by intense and persistent rainfall. In the Cuneo province (Southern Piedmont), floodplain with some urban areas was inundated over ca. ten square kilometres, and the city of Savigliano (about 21 000 inhabitants) was particularly hit by flood. A purposely-made historical research has evidenced approximately fifty flood events as having occurred since 1350 in the Savigliano area. Based upon historical data, both documents and maps, GIS (Geographical Information System) technique and field surveys were used to quantitatively assess the growing urbanization of the city and to describe flood processes and effects over years. This work aims to describe the dynamic behaviour of the 2008 flood, also comparing it to past events, in particular those that occurred in 1896. It is emphasized how the knowledge of past events can be helpful in reducing urban flooding.
