Disaster Management in Civil Engineering
This chapter explores the critical role of disaster management within the field of civil engineering, a discipline integral to protecting lives, safeguarding infrastructure, and maintaining community continuity in the face of natural and man-made disasters. Covering the historical development and current practices in disaster management, it emphasizes the multidisciplinary approach required to mitigate risks and enhance the resilience of structures and communities. The chapter outlines the four phases of disaster management—mitigation, preparedness, response, and recovery—detailing strategies and technologies that civil engineers employ to tackle the challenges posed by disasters. It discusses how advancements in technology, especially neuromorphic computing, are revolutionizing this field by enhancing predictive models, improving real-time decision-making, and facilitating the development of smart, adaptable infrastructure. Through this detailed examination, the chapter highlights how civil engineering continues to evolve, driven by innovation and a commitment to public safety, aiming to build stronger, more resilient communities capable of withstanding future disasters.
