THE LOSS EVALUATION OF EMERGENCY MEDICAL TREATMENTFUNCTION AND NETWORK OF EMERGENCY HOSPITALS

摘要

It is necessary that future earthquake disaster mitigation plans depend upon the evaluation of the loss ofurban functions that play an important roll for lives of residents in town. In other words, the paradigmchanges from the evaluation of fragility of urban structures to the evaluation of fragility of urban functionsfor living in a urban community. The simulation analysis of the evaluation of the loss of medical treatmentfunction during earthquake was presented to serve as an example to make clear the importance of theconsideration of urban function. To simulate the loss of emergency medical treatment function, triage,treatment, and transportation of patients relation was modeled, considering the network of emergencyhospitals.
