Abstract

Due to its geographical location, Indonesia is very vulnerable to the volcano eruption. Volcanic eruptions always bring impact to the surrounding community. To mitigate the negative effects, especially the impact on the safety of the population, disaster management is required. One of the concerns of disaster management is a proper allocation and scheduling of rescue teams to minimize evacuation time with expectations of saving as many lives as possible. For that purpose, the RUASP (Rescue Unit Assignment and Scheduling Problem) optimization model is developed to minimize a completion time of evacuation. The model considers the severity of damages and capability of the rescue team as well as safety time for the rescue team. There is a period for rescue teams to be able to perform their duties safely and fuzzy time on the fields. Physical limitations and device limitations are the inhibiting factors for evacuation activities during low light conditions. We also developed a GRASP Metaheuristics algorithm for solving the proposed RUASP model. To test the model we use a certain historical data. The completion time of the proposed model is 21.92% faster than the computation time of the previous model, 12.56 seconds.

Summary

Introduction

Indonesia is an archipelago that is vulnerable to natural disasters, including volcanic eruptions. This is due to Indonesia's geographical location, which is located on the Pacific Ring of Fire and at the meeting point of 4 tectonic plates, namely the Asian continental plate, the Australian continental plate, the Indian Ocean plate, and the Pacific Ocean plate. Certain efforts are carried out in dealing with the adverse impacts of such disasters, such as rescue and evacuation of victims, property, basic needs, protection, refugee management, rescue, and recovery of infrastructure and facilities [3]. It needs more attention and quick, precise, and responsive handling, especially to evacuate the victims.
