Comparison of the collapse frequency and failure probability of buildings

open access: yesActa Polytechnica CTU Proceedings, 2022
In a previous study, the collapse frequencies and associated mortalities of buildings were compiled based on various publications. The investigation showed a considerable scattering of collapse frequencies depending on the countries.

Conditional Collapse

open access: yesMind, 2023
AbstractIndicative and subjunctive conditionals are in non-complimentary distribution: there are conversational contexts at which both are licensed (Stalnaker 1975; Karttunen and Peters 1979; von Fintel 1998). This means we can ask an important, but under-explored, question: in contexts which license both, what relations hold between the two?

Mechanisms and critical criteria of coverd karst collapses under extreme rainfall conditions

open access: yesCarsologica Sinica
In recent years, the increasing occurrence of covered karst collapses triggered by rainfall conditions has posed a threat to human life and property safety. According to field investigations and statistical data, the triggering factors of karst collapses

Corrosion-provoked collapse of the inclined belt conveyor bridge [PDF]

open access: yesFME Transactions
This paper presents the results of the holistic failure-based root cause analysis of a sudden collapse of the inclined belt conveyor bridge (IBCB), which is a vital subsystem of a steel mill raw material handling system.

Magnetized Dusty Black Holes and Wormholes

open access: yesUniverse, 2021
We consider the generalized Tolman solution of general relativity, describing the evolution of a spherical dust cloud in the presence of an external electric or magnetic field. The solution contains three arbitrary functions f(R), F(R) and τ0(R), where R

The newfound relationship between extrachromosomal DNAs and excised signal circles

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Extrachromosomal DNAs (ecDNAs) contribute to the progression of many human cancers. In addition, circular DNA by‐products of V(D)J recombination, excised signal circles (ESCs), have roles in cancer progression but have largely been overlooked. In this Review, we explore the roles of ecDNAs and ESCs in cancer development, and highlight why these ...

La argumentación jurídica en la toma de decisión judicial

open access: yesRevista Vasca de Administración Pública, 2014
The judicial decision making is not only a mental activity but it has an argumentative part that if it is taken into account can improve the decision. A theory about the legal reasoning that deals with the context of discovery allows to establish in a ...

In the Climate Emergency, Conservation Must Become Survival Ecology

open access: yesFrontiers in Conservation Science, 2021
Earth faces a climate emergency which renders conservation goals largely obsolete. Current conservation actions are inadequate because they (i) underplay biodiversity's role in maintaining human civilisation, which contributes to its marginalisation, and
