Abstract

This article discusses risk assessment of urban earthquake disaster,which includes risk assessment,vulnerability assessment,disaster prevention and mitigation capacity assessment.Firstly,the article reviews the research process on earthquake risk assessment,and points out shortcomings of these methods.Secondly,the article presents the urban earthquake risk assessment based on earthquake microzonation,vulnerability assessment based on land-use type and disaster prevention and mitigation capacity assessment based on expert scoring.At last,the flowchart of risk assessment of urban earthquake disaster is designed,and zonation arithmetic of risk region is showed.
