Evacuation Planning with Optimal Location of Shelters During an Accident by Prioritizing Affected People Based on Physical Condition: A Case Study in District 6 of Tehran
Journal Title: System Engineering and Productivity - Year 2024, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
Natural disasters and crises have always existed in human history and humans have always been affected by them. Given that most financial and human losses are irreparable, planning should be done before the event on how to evacuate people and allocate them to shelters and hospitals. In most studies, the type of injured people has not been considered in the evacuation operation. In this study, by considering the priority of the physical condition of the injured, a nonlinear planning model for earthquake crisis management in the preparedness and response phase is presented. In this model, the injured people are divided into three groups in terms of physical condition. Also, two types of vehicles are considered for the transportation of the first and second groups, which have suffered severe injuries and ambulatory injuries, respectively. Validation was performed using the sensitivity analysis method. The non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm was used in this study to solve the proposed problem. This model was implemented using the proposed algorithm in a real study in District Six of Tehran. The results show that hospitals and shelters were allocated to areas with the least cost.
