Application of Cloud Model in Evaluation of Urban Vulnerability to Floods Based on Improved Game Theory and Combined Weight by WANG Dayang

“…The urban vulnerability to floods reflects the state of destruction and damage of human,society and economic properties in the city by floods.Taking 14 cities of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region as examples,this paper introduces the cloud model theory method into the evaluation of urban vulnerability to floods,establishes an evaluation factor system for flood vulnerability with five vulnerability levels,improves the game theory to ensure the positive value of combination coefficient based on the subjective and objective weights,and then determines the cooperative weights.The research shows that the cloud model can cope with the uncertainty in the evaluation studies well by taking into account the ambiguity and randomness of factors.In overall,cities in the middle and east Guangxi have higher vulnerability level,followed by those in the west and north Guangxi,and then those in the south Guangxi.…”

Spatio-temporal evolution and driving forces of urban gravity centers and ecological security risk gravity centers in China by Peng Chen, Jiaojiao Duan, Yihan Wang

“…The ecological security risk gravity centers are situated closer to the geometric centers. (2) The migration trajectories can be broadly divided into two phases: from 2000 to 2010, the migration distance of the urban gravity centers in larger cities exceeded that in smaller cities, whereas from 2010 to 2020, the overall migration distance was more significant than that from 2000 to 2010. (3) The urban gravity centers and the ecological security risk gravity centers are influenced not only by natural factors such as elevation and terrain fluctuations but also by human factors based on population movement and development, as well as other factors, including infrastructure shifts driven by real-time policies.…”
