Potential Location for Relief Center for Earthquake Hazards Using Bipolar Fuzzy Graphs Example from Kutch Area, Gujarat, India
摘要
Seismic hazards are severe natural disasters for which we must stay prepared, especially at locations the hazard has its highest chance. The Kutch area in western India is one such terrain. In this work, we apply the bipolar fuzzy graph theory to locate the best possible relief centers in Kutch in the context of its future major seismicity event. Considering several geographic issues, Bhuj and Mandvi are found to be the two locations where such relief centers can be established. Bhuj being a city much better established than Mandvi, we apply “human judgement” and choose the former as the best possible location for the relief center.
