Background In dealing with real world problems uncertainties are unavoidable. Under the conditions of uncertainty, the design and planning of engineering systems must take into account risks, which involve probability and consequences. The acceptable levels of risk in the design and planning a system are closely related to its functionality. For example, if the failure of the system would pose significant human health or ecosystem hazard, lower level of risk can be tolerated. Thus, the system must be designed based on events and characteristics that are not likely to occur but have colossal adverse consequences. In the design of any system of interest, the tradeoffs between cost of abating risk and cost of losses from risk must be taken into account. Cost-benefit analysis (CBA), a version of decision analysis, is increasingly embedded in the decision making and risk analysis on the public policy agenda. CBA involves weighting the total expected costs against the total expected benefits of different scenarios, while benefits and costs are expresses in monetary terms. CBA may provide a common rule by which to make necessary comparisons. For many risk issues, however, the values of different elements could be extremely account. Cost-benefit analysis (CBA), a version of decision analysis, is increasingly embedded in the decision making and risk analysis on the public policy agenda. CBA involves weighting the total expected costs against the total expected benefits of different scenarios, while benefits and costs are expresses in monetary terms. CBA may provide a common rule by which to make necessary comparisons. For many risk issues, however, the values of different elements could be extremely difficult or impossible to quantify. In these cases, aggregation of different criteria into a single decision-making variable (such as total cost or benefit-cost ratio) may not be feasible. Scenario Scenario The recent 9.1 magnitude earthquake in Japan triggered a devastating tsunami that culminated in the death of thousands of people and the destruction of many houses. With the benefit of hindsight, lower levels of risk should have been accepted when designing the built environment in the area. In this project, you are given the task of determining an optimal level of risk and its corresponding earthquake magnitude for the design of buildings in Japan. However, the scope of this scenario is limited to the construction (cost of risk abatement) and damage cost (cost of losses from risk) of buildings. Incorporation of loss of human lives and ecological hazards would require more rigorous analysis. Objectives The objectives of the project are to: graphically illustrate the occurrence of major earthquakes in Japan over the 1900-2021 period. • fit statistical models to the earthquake magnitude data for Japan. • select a model that fits the data best using Objectives The objectives of the project are to: graphically illustrate the occurrence of major earthquakes in Japan over the 1900-2021 period. • fit statistical models to the earthquake magnitude data for Japan. • select a model that fits the data best using graphical evaluation and goodness-of-fit measures. • compute the earthquake magnitude at varying levels of risk. • estimate cost of risk abatement (construction cost), cost of losses from risk (damage cost) and total cost. identify the optimal level of risk and corresponding earthquake magnitude. Equations 1 and 2 can be used to estimate the abatement cost (c₁) and damage cost (c2) in US dollars, respectively: C1 c₁ = 4.8(x − 1.95) 12 - Eq. 1 C₂ = = 4500 exp[−6.8 (x — 9.9)] - Eq. 2 where x is the design earthquake magnitude. The total cost is c₁+C2. Note that as the design C1 = - : 4.8(x — 1.95) 12 Eq. 1 C2 = 4500 exp[−6.8 (x — 9.9)] Eq. 2 where x is the design earthquake magnitude. The total cost is c₁+C2. Note that as the design earthquake magnitude increases, the capacity of the system to withstand earthquake loading increases. Thus, the cost of damages decreases as the design earthquake magnitude increases. Conversely, the cost of abating risk (i.e., construction cost) increases as the design earthquake magnitude increases. These relationships may be used to compute the cost- benefit plot and the optimal design earthquake magnitude. Assume that the cost of damages (D in billion U.S. dollars) in the region can be obtained as a function of earthquake magnitude (m) in Richter: D = h (m) = 0.18 (m − 6)5.8 ; m > 6 richter - E 3/n Mapping where things are The simplest form of geographic analysis is to show features on a map and let the viewer do the analysis in the mind's eye. It falls on the cartographer to use various colors and symbols and to group data in a logical manner so the viewer can clearly see the information being highlighted. More complex methods involve categorizing the data, and designing symbology for each category. The most basic of maps simply show where things are without complicated analysis. These can be very useful and enhanced by symbolizing different categories. By symbolizing categories you can show both location and some characteristics of the features.

The Significant Earthquake Database for Japan over the 1900-2023 period from National Geospatial Data Center Scenario Your company has been hired to create a geographic map of the location and magnitude of major earthquakes for Japan over the 1900-2018 period. This map will be viewed by a diverse audience with different levels of expertise in geographic analysis. Thus, the map should only include information that can be easily interpreted by the viewers and should not include complicated details. 1 Analysis Start ArcMap Pro and create a map document 1.
