ABSTRACT

The current society has experienced constantly small and large disasters including natural disasters (e.g. extreme weather) and industrial disasters due to industrial development. Moreover, the disasters are getting bigger and more serious and the social damage and recovery costs are increasing astronomically. Despite the increase of the occurrence and magnitude of various disasters, the ability of firefighting agencies and local governments to respond to disasters is still limited. Since the limited disaster response could cause enormous social damages, rapid and effective responses to cope with disaster and recover damages should be undertaken at the early stage of disaster cycle. However, mobilizing personnel to respond to disasters in a short period of time is a real challenge, and thus it would be an effective way to respond to a growing number of disasters using a reserve army which can be quickly mobilized.
