A study on the optical arrangement of shelters using genetic algorithm

In recent years, the damage by natural disasters is increasing in Japan. A natural disaster takes a human life and serious blow to economic activities. In order to protect a human life from a natural disaster, the usual preparation is very important. Therefore, local government installs shelters. However, prediction of evacuation route and arrangement of shelters are not considered. This study aims to clarify evacuation behavior in Ube city using evacuation simulation. The simulation was performed by network model. Based on the results of evacuation simulation, optimal arrangements of shelters are also carried out.
