Profile |
Fuko Nakai, Ph.D., is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Architecture, Civil Engineering and Industrial Management Engineering at Nagoya Institute of Technology (NIT). She specializes in the study of disaster risk management and urban planning through statistical or optimization modeling and action research in the community of Kochi and Nagano in Japan. Her current research interests are on (1) long-term (100 years) changes of the land-use and the modern flood control technologies (i.e. levees) in the Kiso River basin by analyzing old maps, (2) trade-offs and synergies between disaster risk reduction and spatial compactness of cities, and (3) how disaster risk policies (i.e. designating inundation zones) influence population distribution and land price. |

Analyzing the Impacts of Designating Potential Tsunami Inundation Zones on Population Change Reviewed International journal
Fuko Nakai, Yu Nagamachi, Eizo Hideshima
Conference Proceedings of 2021 IEEE 10th Global Conference on Consumer Electronics (GCCE) 137 - 138 2021.08
Authorship:Lead author Language:English Publishing type:Research paper (international conference proceedings) Publisher:IEEE
The study examined the effects of potential tsunami inundation zoning on the population in Japanese coastal areas using propensity score matching and difference-in- differences method. The results indicated that large cities were less affected than rural areas; however, some exceptions were observed. Moreover, the elderly exhibited a tendency to leave the Level 2 (L2) zone; however, individuals of the younger generation, who usually relocate during different life events, stayed in the L2 zones. The findings can be used as a reference to plan suitable disaster mitigation strategies.

Analyzing Urban Intensification and Disaster Risk Reduction using the Optimal Land-Use Model Reviewed International journal
Tatsuya Uchiuzo,Fuko Nakai,Kazuaki Okubo
Conference Proceedings of 2021 IEEE 10th Global Conference on Consumer Electronics (GCCE) 141 - 142 2021.08
Language:English Publishing type:Research paper (international conference proceedings)
This study developed an optimal land-use model composed of multicriteria: tsunami risk, infrastructure maintenance cost, traffic time with controlling population, land use, and commuting trips. The model was applied to a coastal area in Japan. The results, with various combinations of the control variables, showed that the larger the number of variables, the more concentrated residential areas became with fewer costs. The findings urge consensus around trade-offs between urban intensification and disaster risk reduction.

Heterogeneity of Causal Effects of Designating Tsunami Inundation Zone on Land Price Reviewed International journal
Chisato Kawai, Fuko Nakai, Eizo Hideshima
Conference Proceedings of 2021 IEEE 10th Global Conference on Consumer Electronics (GCCE) 139 - 140 2021.08
Language:English Publishing type:Research paper (international conference proceedings) Publisher:IEEE
This study examines how potential tsunami inundation zoning affects land prices in Japanese coastal areas using propensity score matching and the difference-in- differences method. The results showed spatial heterogeneity in the estimated effects: a more considerable impact occurred in coastal areas or areas distant from central cities, while the impact did not appear in urban areas or tourist centers.

communities'Disaster Preparedness Promoted Evacuation: A Case Study of Nagano City Damaged by the Chikuma River Floods Caused by Typhoon Hagibis Reviewed
Fuko Nakai, Shinichiro Nakamura, Kensuke Takenouchi
Journal of Japan Society of Civil Engineers, Ser. B1 (Hydraulic Engineering) 76 ( 1 ) 424 - 436 2021.02
Authorship:Lead author Language:Japanese Publishing type:Research paper (scientific journal)
This study examined the evacuation behavior of two communities in Nagano City; Naganuma and Toyono, Japan, during the typhoon Hagibis. Despite the width of the inundated area and significant building damage, there were only two victims in the area. We analyzed the relationship between (1) the numerical statement of the aggregated evacuation behavior, (2) social and hazard circumstances, and (3) social background, including the disaster preparedness formulated by the community. The research focused on "the minutia"of factors which have been revealed by previous researches, rather than "the existence or absence" of such factors. The analysis was based on newspaper articles, a post-interview survey conducted by Kansai Television Co. Ltd., the minutes of the flooded area's past flood control meetings, and community disaster management plans. The results showed that the main factor promoting evacuation action differed in the two communities. This difference lied in each community's disaster preparedness. Indeed, Naganuma had set a specific and socially agreed upon criterion for evacuation: a specific water level of the Chikuma River. Meanwhile, Toyono had experienced several inland flooding. On the other side, both communities had participated in the flood control meetings and formed organizations for voluntary disaster mitigation action and a common awareness of "what constitutes a dangerous situation" and "which information is important for the evacuation".
