Modeling the Medical Rescue Forces Allocation in Earthquakes

Medical rescue forces are the basis of earthquake rescue efforts. The allocation of medical rescue forces played vital role in the rescue efforts. This chapter mainly introduced the background, objective, significance, and technical route of medical rescue force allocation in earthquakes. The author described the process of the construction of medical rescue forces allocation model in earthquake. Based on the model construction, the systemic simulation and intervention were carried out so as to provide some suggestions on the allocation of medical rescue efforts.
