1 Disaster and Recovery: Working Toward More Resilient Communities THALIA ANAGNOS AVP GRADUATE & UNDERGRADUATE PROGRAMS FEBRUARY 21, 2018

2 Resilience Ability to prepare and plan for, absorb, recover from, and more successfully adapt to adverse events Environment (built & natural) Disaster Resilience : A National Imperative National Academies Press, 2012 Political Economic Social Earthquakes/Tsunamis Weather-induced disasters Climate-induced disasters Wildfires Human-induced disasters Infectious disease outbreaks

3 2010 Haiti Earthquake M7.3 Political Environment (built & natural) Economic Social 60% of government buildings destroyed Incapacitated government Airport, ports and many roads inoperable Slowed access to aid No access to clean water and sanitation Cholera (6% of population affected) 1.5 million people displaced Destruction of social fabric (families, schools, healthcare, jobs, access to food, etc.) $8 billion in damage ($15 billion losses) more than annual gross domestic product (GDP)

4

5 Before Resilience Ability to prepare and plan for, absorb, recover from, and more successfully adapt to adverse events Determine risks Communicate Risks Mitigate risks Develop capacity to respond Develop policies Engage the community During Warn community Monitor the situation Evacuate After Short term Communicate Restore vital systems Food, water, shelter Safety Healthcare Assess damage Long term Plan for future Mitigate risks Rebuild

6 Worldwide trends are fueling the discussion 10 year average total economic loss 2016 $54 bill 2017 >$100 bill Insurance Industry losses (Swiss Re)

7 Explore examples of resilience from the 2010 Chile earthquake Tsunami warning system Urban planning and urban redesign Use of base isolation

8 Chile sits on a convergent plate boundary on the Ring of Fire

9 S. Central Chile Feb. 27, 2010 M 8.8, 3:34 AM 500 times more powerful than 2010 Haiti Plate rupture 550 km long; 80% population felt EQ 3 minutes of shaking 526 deaths 370,000 homes damaged $30 billion loss (18% GDP) Tsunami

10 Explore examples of resilience from the 2010 Chile earthquake Tsunami warning system Urban planning and urban redesign Use of base isolation

11 Subduction earthquake generated tsunami South American Plate Nazca Plate

12 Warning the community can mitigate human and economic losses from a tsunami Tsunami warning center 1. Monitor earthquakes globally 2. CAN EQ generate tsunami?

13 Warning the community can mitigate human and economic losses from a tsunami Tsunami warning center 1. Monitor earthquakes globally 2. CAN EQ generate tsunami? 3. Monitor sea surface height

14 Warning the community can mitigate human and economic losses from a tsunami Tsunami warning center 1. Monitor earthquakes globally 2. CAN EQ generate tsunami? 3. Monitor sea surface height International and Chilean gauges

15 Warning the community can mitigate human and economic losses from a tsunami Tsunami warning center 1. Monitor earthquakes globally 2. CAN EQ generate tsunami? 3. Monitor sea surface height International and Chilean data 4. Model estimated time to arrival

16 Warning the community can mitigate human and economic losses from a tsunami Tsunami warning center 1. Monitor earthquakes globally 2. CAN EQ generate tsunami? 3. Monitor sea surface height International and Chilean data 4. Model estimated time to arrival o Distant or local event

17 Warning the community can mitigate human and economic losses from a tsunami Tsunami warning center 1. Monitor earthquakes globally 2. CAN EQ generate tsunami? 3. Monitor sea surface height International and Chilean data 4. Model estimated time to arrival 5. Warn impacted communities

18 Warning System Move or secure vulnerable objects Shut down sensitive systems Warn local community Increased Resilience Evacuate Warn communities globally EQ warning systems (Japan, Taiwan, Mexico, US) Receive via phone, TV, radio, siren Move to safe place (under desk, away from machinery, ) Stop surgery procedure Stop car to side of road or prevent from entering tunnel Slow high speed rail Warn plane from landing Open firehouse doors Stop sensitive industry processes Isolate systems to prevent cascading failures

19 Explore examples of resilience from the 2010 Chile earthquake Tsunami warning system Urban planning and urban redesign Use of base isolation

20 18 minutes after the EQ Constitución was inundated by the tsunami La Poza

21 Before After

22 City developed sustainable reconstruction plan Relocate 100 families from La Poza Social considerations (fisherman, land owned for generations, close to town)

23 City developed sustainable reconstruction plan Relocate 100 families from La Poza Social considerations (fisherman, land owned for generations, close to town) Create forest where La Poza used to be (acts as tsunami buffer)

24 City developed sustainable reconstruction plan Relocate 100 families from La Poza Social considerations (fisherman, land owned for generations, close to town) Create forest where La Poza used to be (dissipate 40% to 70% of tsunami power) Government partnered with Elemental architectural firm to build Villa Verde Only had $10,000 per house, designed ½ a good house (40 m 2, 430 ft 2 ) Kitchen/lounge, a bathroom and two bedrooms

25 Villa Verde today Social housing, but units owned by occupants

26 Villa Verde today

27 Urban Redesign Reduced industrial runoff into river Engaged community in planning Relocated residents to safer location Increased Resilience Created tsunami buffer Affordable attractive homes Other considerations Created community green space near the river Accelerated reconstruction (6 months for plan, 4 years to complete) Families own their homes Loss of previous community Far from jobs and services Lack of transportation Fear of forest fires

30 Inadequate Connections Motion Amplification (Resonance) Ground Failure Heavy Structures Asymmetric Shapes Previous Damage Damage & Collapse Brittle Materials

31 Newton s Second Law F = ma m = mass of building a = acceleration of ground Think what this means about how different types of structures respond to earthquakes ground acceleration Animation from engineering/engineering5.html

33 Resonance

34 frequency content of ground motion close to building's natural frequency tends to amplify building response building suffers the greatest damage from ground motion at a frequency close or equal to its own natural frequency Mexico City earthquake of Sept. 19, 1985 Collapsed majority of collapsed buildings ~ 20 stories tall T~ 2.0 seconds Minimal Damage different heights & natural periods, undamaged even though located right next to damaged 20 story buildings

35 Base Isolators Limit the Ground Motion That Enters the Building Displacement is concentrated in isolators Reduces drift between stories Click Here
