Submission received: 9 July 2021 / Accepted: 14 July 2021 / Published: 15 July 2021
The journal retracts the 23 February 2021 article [1].
Following publication, concerns were brought to the attention of the publisher regarding factual errors found throughout the manuscript. Following an investigation of the issues raised, the article was re-examined by the Guest Editors of the Special Issue “Simulations and Methods for Disaster Risk Reduction in Sustainable Built Environments”, which confirmed the scientific errors, including misrepresentation of the selected models and software capabilities as well as of their modelling approach.
The article is therefore retracted, as the factual errors deeply affect the results of the manuscript.
This retraction was approved by the Editor in Chief and a Section Editor in Chief of the journal.
The authors did not agree to this retraction.
