Abstract
Over the last decade, there has been a rise in extreme weather events which has affected the lives and wellbeing of the community. In Australia, frequent flooding has impacted the Hawkesbury-Nepean valley consequential in the loss of lives, animals, and property. This necessitates enhanced flood risk management through innovative response and evacuation strategies. Timely evacuation of victims from disaster-prone areas reduces the number of casualties. To save a maximum number of victims from the flood-prone area by optimum utilisation of resources requires computational approaches. This study proposes an Artificial Bee Colony algorithm to evacuate age care facility residents in the Hawkesbury-Nepean Valley. The results show that the proposed model can help the response managers to make decisions within appropriate computational time. The proposed model will facilitate the decision-makers to make timely decisions based on the number of victims, available transport facilities, and optimum scheduling and routing. Index Terms - Hawkesbury-Nepean valley, aged care facilities, flood risk management, Artificial Bee Colony algorithm, evacuation response, Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem.
