Abstract
A knowledge-oriented hazard risk assessment approach based on deeper understanding of the root cause and drivers of a hazard is developed and verified in this study. The open collaboration framework consists of case study, simulation facility and knowledge base to carry out the hazard assessment by this approach has been initiated. Several case studies of different types in different countries were implemented. Simulation facility is built from the requirements of the target case study. Design of the knowledge base for disaster assessment by compiling all the materials and resources from case studies in an organized way is also proposed. A positive feedback loop is formed by the case study, simulation facility and knowledge base. Both the knowledge to the hazard physical processes and the simulation facility will progressively reinforced by the growing of case studies. Through integration and share of data, simulation facility and innovative applications, workflow, and details of computational environment that generate published findings in open trusted repositories from the open collaboration platform, an open science platform for disaster mitigation would be realized.
