- Abstract
In this paper, according to the characteristics of floods, the closeness centrality of complex network is improved to analyze the evolution of flood disaster social stability risks. Based on the investigation conducted on the flood occurred in Hunan Province in August 2013, and related papers, the topology map for the evolution of flood social stability risk is analyzed and constructed by means of the improved closeness centrality. On this basis, the evolution of social stability risks incurred in floods is divided into three grades, in which such risks as house collapse, crops ruining, looting shopping, social panic etc. produce the maximum impacts on the entire evolution system. So, during the disaster relief, priority should be given to resolve the difficulties in meeting the basic necessities that are closely associated with people's life.
