Research on Debris Flow Harzard Zonation Based on Catastrophe Theory in the Min County,Gansu Province

open access: yesShuitu baochi yanjiu, 2008
At present,there have many methods for the debris flow harzard assessments,such as fuzzy mathematic,artificial neural network,GIS etc.But,these methods are also short of nonlinearity catastrophe characteristic from quantitative change to qualitative ...

Integration of catastrophe and entropy theories for flood risk mapping in peninsular Malaysia

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, 2021
A major challenge in flood mapping using multi‐criteria decision analysis (MCDA) is the selection of the flood risk factors and the estimation of their relative importance.

Examining The Theory of Error Catastrophe [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2006
This discussion attempts to present a simple explanation of the current theory of error catastrophe and why it does not herald a paradigm shift in antiviral strategy. In the main text of the paper, the workings of a simple model of error catastrophe are examined to demonstrate what actually causes error catastrophe.

Inductively Expandable Supraparticles as Microscopic Force Generators for Remote Mechanical Actuation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates the combination of magnetic nanoparticles and functional blowing agents into supraparticles. Upon induction heating, they actuate via rapid gas generation or extensive volume expansion. These supraparticles lift up to 25 000 times their own mass and rapidly open cured epoxy resins, providing a versatile strategy for fast micron ...

Dental Microwear Texture Analysis on Radular Teeth

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
3D microwear textures reveal how gastropod radular teeth respond to controlled abrasive contact. Distinct surface signatures distinguish regular abrasion from fracture‐dominated material removal, showing how mineralized coatings, fibrous cores, and substrate properties jointly shape wear and failure in a biological scraping interface.

Assessing regional flood vulnerability based on catastrophe theory

open access: yesShuili Shuiyun Gongcheng Xuebao, 2018
Based on the structure of the flood vulnerability, 11 indexes are chosen to establish the flood vulnerability evaluation index system. Then the regional flood vulnerability evaluation method based on catastrophe theory is established and applied to ...

Catastrophe index-linked securities and reinsurance as substituties [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The use of catastrophe bonds (cat bonds) implies the problem of the so called basis risk, resulting from the fact that, in contrast to traditional reinsurance, this kind of coverage cannot be a perfect hedge for the primary’s insured portfolio.

Evolution of OLED Lamination Technology With Development of Display Form Factors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
This review evaluates the evolution of organic light‐emitting diode (OLED) lamination technologies alongside advancing display form factors. It contrasts optically clear adhesives and resins, highlighting uniformity control for rigid screens, bubble‐free optimization for bended architectures, and visible‐light curing for foldable layers.

Fitting the Cusp Catastrophe in R: A cusp Package Primer [PDF]

open access: yes
Of the seven elementary catastrophes in catastrophe theory, the âÂÂcuspâ model is the most widely applied. Most applications are however qualitative.

Defect‐Engineered ZnO Nanowire Arrays for Flexible Room‐Temperature Hydrogen Sensors

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Fabrication process of patterned ZnO nucleation sites on a flexible polyimide (PI) substrate. Top/tilted‐view SEM images of ordered ZnO nanoflower arrays confined within patterned circular regions. AFM topography map with height data revealing a disk‐array structure, where the patterned regions (marked by a red dot circle) are elevated by ∼2 µm ...
