Ltd. Oriental Consultants Global Co. Ltd. Data Collection Survey on the Outer Ring Road Diversion Channel in the Comprehensive Flood Management Plan for the Chao Phraya River Basin in the Kingdom of Thailand Summary 1: BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE 1.1 Background The Chao Phraya River Basin (hereinafter called “the Basin”), which occupies about one-third of the total territory of the Kingdom of Thailand, have provided benefits for the agriculture through frequent floods. However, due to of rapid economic growth, the land use has drastically changed as more properties and assets concentrate in potential flood areas. Mitigation of floods risks has become an urgent issue due to the urban development. During the severe flood in 2011, seven industrial estates in the north of Bangkok were inundated, and 469 Japanese companies were affected by this severe flood. The economic loss was estimated at approximately THB 1,400 billion. JICA prepared and submitted the Comprehensive Flood Management Plan for the Chao Phraya River Basin (hereinafter called “the Master Plan (JICA MP)”) upon the request from the Royal Thai Government in June 2013. In JICA MP, the city of Bangkok and the surrounding areas (to the east of Tha Chin River, and to the south of Pasak River in the city of Ayutthaya), which the Royal Thai Government designated as the priority Protected Area, were defined as the priority area for protection, for which the following structural and nonstructural measures were proposed.

Section 1, Japanese Economy and Its Surrounding Conditions, provides an overview of an increasingly declining population, especially that of a productive-age population, to become a super aging society with an estimated aging rate of close to 40% in 2050, and a severe fiscal position due to rapidly growing, long-term outstanding debts and other circumstances. Section 2, Economic Trends and Infrastructure Development, looks at how infrastructure has supported peoples’ lives and the economy of the time by exploring economic growth and the history of infrastructure development (Edo period and post-war economic growth period).

  • Simulation Analysis of Airport Capacity for Disaster Relief Activities
    Journal of the Eastern Asia Society for Transportation Studies, Vol.13, 2019 Simulation Analysis of Airport Capacity for Disaster Relief Activities Qingqi WANG a, Terumitsu HIRATA b, Shion KUBO c a c Graduate School of Science and Engineering, Ibaraki University, 316-8511, Japan; a E-mail:[email protected] cE-mail: [email protected] b Associate Professor, Graduate School of Science and Engineering, Ibaraki University, 316-8511, Japan;E-mail:[email protected] Abstract: After disaster occurred, a large number of aircraft such as helicopters for disaster relief activities often use a local airport as a base. But local airports did not have enough capacity and experience in operating so many aircraft, and airport can’t find a suitable operation pattern to deploy aircraft efficiently. In this paper, first, we developed an integrated simulation of the runway and apron operation in disaster for airport capacity evaluation with the dynamic capacity concept. Then the simulation is used as a planning tool to allocate and arrange the disaster relief aircraft. we try to find a suitable operation strategy to efficiently utilize the airport’s resource and operate the rescue aircraft. The result of this paper is expected to offer useful advice for airport capacity planning for disaster relief operation. Keywords: Airport Capacity, Runway, Parking spot, Simulation, Disaster Relief, Departure Interval 1. INTRODUCTION In the Great East Japan Earthquake, compared with the land transportation network which has been disrupted and takes time to restore, airports became a rescue activity base which played an important role in the rescue operation.
