To attain and assess the physical vulnerability, the methods of (Kappes, 2014)
uncovers a theme that the importance of considering both hazard-specific vulnerability
and user-specific vulnerability can be adapted to the specific needs of different
stakeholders, it proposes and serve as an indicator-based approach to assess physical
vulnerability. According to the study of (Aditi et al. 2019) vulnerability curves,
vulnerability matrices and vulnerability indicators are the three most used methods for
assessing physical most vulnerability. These approaches are based on general
assumptions and each approach manifests some pros and shortcomings. A study of
(Mazzorana et al. 2014) reveal that three steps of the necessary five analytic steps to
accurately assess the physical vulnerability of the built environment: Process modelling,
Impact modelling and Structural and physical response modelling. A supporting study of
(Brody, 2015) also indicates that Bivariate correlation and multivariate regression
analyses are used to identify and explain the most important indicators shaping individual
risk perception towards physical vulnerability.
