Analysis of the Efficiency of Slope Evacuation for Dense Crowds in Urban Street-Type Public Spaces

Applied Sciences
Street-type spaces, characterized by their relative closedness and propensity for human congregation, inherently carry potential safety evacuation risks. In order to study the influence of slopes on the evacuation efficiency of pedestrians in street-type

Analysis of Carbohydrates and Glycoconjugates by Matrix‐Assisted Laser Desorption/Ionization Mass Spectrometry: An Update for 2023–2024

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The use of MALDI mass spectrometry for the analysis of carbohydrates and glycoconjugates is a well‐established technique and this comprehensive review is the twelfth update of the original article published in 1999 and brings coverage of the literature to the end of 2024.

The discrete dynamics of small-scale spatial events: agent-based models of mobility in carnivals and street parades [PDF]

, 2002
Small-scale spatial events are situations in which elements or objects vary in such away that temporal dynamics is intrinsic to their representation and explanation. Someof the clearest examples involve local movement from conventional traffic modelingto

ISAba1‐mediated crp‐osmC amplification enhances host‐associated fitness in Acinetobacter baumannii

mLife, EarlyView.
Abstract Acinetobacter baumannii is a pathogen, highly adaptable to both hospital‐ and host‐associated environments. Understanding the genetic mechanisms underlying its adaptability is critical for controlling its persistence. Our study identified the crp‐osmC gene cluster, flanked by ISAba1 elements, as a significant genetic structure undergoing ...

Chronic high‐altitude exposure and intracerebral hemorrhage: A novel perspective from the vascular‐immune‐neuronal network

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.
Long‐term chronic high‐altitude hypobaric hypoxia increases susceptibility to ICH, particularly among migrant populations lacking EPAS1/SENP1 adaptive genetic variants relative to high‐altitude indigenous residents. Persistent hypoxia initiates blood–brain barrier (BBB) breakdown, aberrant glial and immune activation, and progressive neuronal injury ...

Simulation of Evacuation Characteristics Using a 2-Dimensional Cellular Automata Model for Pedestrian Dynamics

Journal of Applied Mathematics, 2013
In public places, the high pedestrian density is one of the direct causes leading to crowding and trample disaster, so it is very necessary to investigate the collective and evacuation characteristics for pedestrian movement. In the occupants’ evacuation

Crisis Preparation, Capacity Building, and Community Resilience: Lessons From Maui

Nonprofit Management and Leadership, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The 2023 Maui wildfires provide a unique context to explore the impact of nonprofit crisis networks taking a proactive role in community crisis response, leveraging resources, expertise, and networks. The Hawaiʻi Community Foundation (HCF) has been a key player in Maui's local response, providing critical support, mobilizing volunteers, and ...

Statistical analysis of chemical computational systems with MULTIVESTA and ALCHEMIST [PDF]

, 2013
The chemical-oriented approach is an emerging paradigm for programming the behaviour of densely distributed and context-aware devices (e.g. in ecosystems of displays tailored to crowd steering, or to obtain profile-based coordinated visualization ...

Practical Methodology for Developing Visions for Carbon‐Neutral Cities and Communities

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cities and communities play important roles in sustainable development and climate change mitigation. This study presents a novel framework for developing carbon‐neutral visions for cities and communities. We established five “principles,” investigated options encompassing four parameters (management, goal setting, actions, and quantification),
