Unifying casualty distributions within and across conflicts [PDF]

open access: yesHeliyon, 2020
The distribution of whole war sizes and the distribution of event sizes within individual wars, can both be well approximated by power laws where size is measured by the number of fatalities. However the power-law exponent value for whole wars has a substantially smaller magnitude - and hence a flatter distribution - than for individual wars.

Patient distribution in a mass casualty event of an airplane crash [PDF]

open access: yesInjury, 2013
Difficulties have been reported in the patient distribution during Mass Casualty Incidents. In this study we analysed the regional patient distribution protocol (PDP) and the actual patient distribution after the 2009 Turkish Airlines crash near Amsterdam.Analysis of the patient distribution of 126 surviving casualties of the crash by collecting data ...

Towards Linking Climate and Weather Phenomena to Road Safety Outcomes Part 1 of 3: The Collective Involvement of Weather Manifestations

open access: yesJournal of Road Safety, 2022
Climate and its many weather manifestations can help explain annual variations in fatalities and casualty crashes. Part 1 of a 3-part series identifies the breadth of weather factors which collectively contribute to crash risk reviewing and consolidating

Research on Fine Estimation of People Trapped after Earthquake on Single Building Level Based on Multi-Source Data

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Risk assessments of people who are trapped are an important basis for scientific and effective emergency rescue after an earthquake. Currently, most models are based on the kilometer grid scale or community scale that gauge the population and extent of ...

Toward a Unified Understanding of Casualty Distributions in Human Conflict [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2019
We are able to unify various disparate claims and results in the literature, that stand in the way of a unified description and understanding of human conflict. First, we provide a reconciliation of the numerically different exponent values for fatality distributions across entire wars and within single wars. Second, we explain how ignoring the details
