Abstract
Landslides, as one of the major natural hazards, account each year for
enormous property damage in terms of both direct and indirect costs.
Mountain roads where probability of land sliding is the highest, causes
hurdles not only in the traffic flow but generate various traffic
problems in the form of congestion, high accidents rate and waste of
time. This paper introduces an agent-based model for modeling and
simulation of the effects of landslide on the circulation of transports
on mountain roads. This model is applied to the National Road No6 of
Vietnam to visualize and analyze the effects of landslide on the road
when it occurs. This model could help us to improve and optimally
organize of landslide warning and rescue system on the road.
