Abstract
The interaction between hazard and exposure gives rise to risk. Tsunami risk assessment is derived from both hazard assessment and vulnerability assessment. Exposure can manifest in various aspects, such as social factors (e.g., population), environmental factors (e.g., agricultural areas), or economic factors (e.g., infrastructure). Our focus in this review paper is specifically on economic exposure, with an emphasis on structural vulnerability assessment. The approaches employed in tsunami vulnerability assessment are diverse. In this paper, we categorize them into simplified and in-depth methods, encompassing: (1) Empirical vulnerability functions, (2) Index-based approach, (3) Building tsunami vulnerability model (BTV).
