There are five large rivers which pass through and empties into Manado City, one of them is the Sario River. In 2014, the settlements around the Sario watershed area was severely damaged due to flash floods, in fact, there was one neighborhood in Kelurahan Ranotana Weru where almost all houses were washed away and were lost due to the flood. In addition, there are also fatalities and other material losses. Flood disasters in the Sario watershed area occur periodically every year, but the most severe damage was in 2014, it was even designated as a national disaster because it struck almost the entire city of Manado. Therefore, a study was conducted to obtain the concept of flood disaster mitigation at this location which is expected to prevent disaster, reduce risk and minimize the impact that will occur. This concept is divided into structural and non-structural mitigation. Structural mitigation includes efforts to minimize disasters through the construction of various physical infrastructure and technological approaches, such as the construction of disasters-resistant buildings, the construction of canals for flood prevention, evacuation routes, green open spaces, etc. Non-structural mitigation includes making policies or rules such as spatial planning or community capacity building. This research found that the boundary area of ​​the river needs to be rearranged, the river embankment and drainage channel are repaired, the high density of the building needs to be reduced to provide sufficient open spaces, the need to build disaster evacuation routes and improved building conditions.

Flood is one of the most dominant disasters in Indonesia with an incident that tends to increase. Lamongan District is an area with a fairly high risk of flooding due to the intensity of which it occurs every year. The high risk of flooding is caused by two reasons, the Bengawan Solo flow and the rainfall (the Bengawan Njero flow). Every flood disaster that occurs will certainly cause various impacts from damage to infrastructure, loss of property, and casualties. Disaster management efforts are certainly carried out to minimize the risk and impact of flood disasters in Lamongan District, such as through disaster mitigation. This research aims to determine disaster mitigation carried out in Lamongan District as an effort to minimize the impact of flooding. This research used descriptive qualitative research methods. Disaster mitigation in this research is divided into two according to Perka BNPB Number 4 of 2008, active disaster mitigation and passive disaster mitigation. The results of this research indicated that active mitigation in Lamongan District was carried out through, making flood disaster signs, supervising spatial planning, conducting training and counseling on flood disasters to officials, communities, and students, planning evacuation places and flood disaster evacuation routes and making embankment reinforcement. Meanwhile, passive mitigation in Lamongan District was carried out through, drafting laws and regulations, making flood-prone maps, making guidelines for every disaster management activity, making disaster posters, conducting flood risk studies, conducting disaster education, forming village forums, and prioritizing disaster management in development planning.

China is in a period of rapid urbanization. Due to the high concentration of population and industries, the loss due to flood and waterlogging is becoming more and more serious. Therefore, it is of great significance to strengthen the analysis and evaluation of the losses due to flood and waterlogging disasters in China for the recent years. This study analyzed the losses caused by flood and waterlogging disasters in China from 2006 to 2017. The results showed that the most serious year affected by floods and waterlogging was 2010. However, the relationship between rainfall and flood disaster losses was not significant, which may be because the occurrence of flood disasters is caused by many factors. The spatial distribution showed that the eastern and southern parts of China suffered greater losses from the flood and waterlogging disasters because these areas are more vulnerable to floods and waterlogging disasters under the impact of both monsoons and typhoons. This study hopes to provide some reference for flood disaster control and disaster mitigation in the future.

Presented is an initial discussion on dynamic simulation of tsunami air bag deployment in connection with a number of smart inflatable and deployable structures, called tsunami air bags (TAB) that can be rather quickly set up and strongly anchored to the ocean floor to withstand the impact of a tsunami wave and thus protect the buildings and structures on shore. These dedicated inflatable smart structures are designed such that upon tsunami impact they can perform two smart deployment tasks. The first one is for the structure to deploy in the form of a porous structure containing internal folds and pockets and reconfigure due to tsunami impact to perform energy absorption by forcing the tsunami waves to pass through the porous inflatable structure forcing the tsunami waves to lose kinetic energy due to viscous drag and pressurizing the TABs. The second task is related to a special de sign of the inflatable structure that causes it to deploy to either further vertically rise or become a hollow inflatable dam upon the tsunami impact. In these endeavors a wave generation channel was designed and constructed to perform experiments and to simulate tsunami wave impacts on inflatable structures deploying from an underwater location. The initial observation indicates that TABs have a great potential to mitigate tsunami impacts.

Flood is a natural event caused by the overflowing of water out of the river channel because the volume of water exceeds the capacity of the available river channels. An area of overflow from a river is referred to as a flood-plain area. Kampung KB which is located in Pucang sawit Village, Jebres, Surakarta, is located along the side of the Bengawan Solo river, making this location prone to the impact of the overflowing of the Bengawan Solo river in this extreme weather. Therefore, disaster mitigation activities in the form of flood disaster management are needed for the people of that area. The prevalence of heavy rain in Indonesia is increasing, resulting in an increased risk of flooding. The result of this problem is the lack of public knowledge regarding how to deal with flood disasters that may arise. The solution is with disaster training in the form of activating the role of youth family development in the KB village. The target output expected from this health education is the increasing number of people who know the procedures for handling floods in disaster locations, as well as youth being able to play an active role in disaster activities. Information on the Activation of Action and the Role of Youth in Flood Disaster Management in Kampung KB Pucangsawit, Surakarta was held on the 21st October 2020, followed by five students, two accompanying lecturers and audiences. During the counseling, a demonstration of first aid was carried out in the case of floods and questions and answers to clarify the understanding of the residents. After counseling about first aid to flood victims, we also did scene designs or actions in the field and practiced what had been taught directly on the banks of the Bengawan Solo river.

This paper describes the results of a comprehensive analysis for tsunami disaster mitigation in Padang City, Indonesia. Assessment consists of several steps, starting from the construction of tsunami hazard maps based on the most probable earthquake scenario in the future. Results are then analyzed to determine the impact on residential population along potential evacuation routes. Next, from the standpoint of hazards, we move to the analysis of human’s vulnerability during evacuation. The term “vulnerability” is associated with available evacuation time. Here, we conducted a static evacuation model using the GIS platform and a dynamic approach using multiagent paradigm. Results of evacuationmodeling suggest that some residents may not have enough time to leave the tsunami inundation area before the first wave comes. We therefore propose using relatively high buildings as vertical evacuation sites. One of potential candidates that survived from a devastated earthquake with 7.6 Mw in 2009 is selected to be further analyzed its antiseismic deficiencies based on design ground motion obtained from micro-tremor analysis and synthesized recorded wave in Padang. As a result, even though the building underwent some damage, the frame structure was able to withstand the shaking and keep the building from collapsing.

The first objective of this activity is to increase knowledge and understanding of the rescue procedures, evacuation routes, and emergency response plans when a large earthquake occurs. The second objective is to increase the knowledge and ability to mobilize available resources. With this knowledge and capability, the community can choose and sort out the resources that must be prioritized, so that losses can be reduced as little as possible. Referring to the results of the study, reducing the impact of earthquake and tsunami disaster risk is greatly influenced by emergency response plan factors, disaster warning system factors, knowledge factors, policy and guidance factors, and the ability of team mobilization. The conclusion obtained from the results of this activity is that the Air Rami Sub-district community gained increased knowledge and understanding of earthquake and tsunami mitigation. This can be seen from the enthusiasm of stakeholders and the public in participating in socialization activities. It is also supported by the Wilcoxon statistical test, the result showed that socialization increases public knowledge in understanding disaster mitigation, especially earthquakes and tsunamis.

Disaster can happen anytime and anywhere, therefore the solutions offered for students' understanding of disaster, one of them is the SETS approach through disaster mitigation. This research aims to determine the learning process and to know the students’ activities, and their responses towards SETS approach through disaster mitigation. This research is a qualitative type with a sample of 37 students. Data collection techniques are the results of observations, questionnaires, interviews, and documentation. The results showed that 90% of students were more active, have the spirit to learn, and the response towards learning is very good. The implementation of SETS approach through mitigation is appropriate to do, because students experience the direct occurrence of flood disaster. With the introduction to disaster mitigation, students can realize the importance of preserving the natural environment and minimize the impact of disasters that can harm the community.
