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 N°6
of Vietnam to visualize and analyze the effects of landslide on
the road when it occurs. This model could help us to improve
and op...
