Damage mapping after the 2017 Puebla Earthquake in Mexico using high-resolution Alos2 Palsar2 data [PDF]
On September 19, 2017, the Mw7.1 Puebla Earthquake caused significant destruction in several cities in central Mexico. In this paper, two pre- and one post-event ALOS2-PALSAR2 data were used to detect the damaged area around Izucar de Matamoros town in ...

Overview of the proposed Gate‐Align‐SED, including two stages of training: (1) Mean‐Teacher SSL Training; and (2) Enhancer Model Training. In complex real‐world environments such as disaster monitoring, effective sound event detection (SED) is often hindered by the presence of noise and limited labeled data.

Redescription of the Triassic cynodont Cistecynodon parvus and reassessment of its phylogeny
Abstract Cynodontia is an important subclade of Therapsida that first occurred in the late Permian. It includes extinct subclades which are the non‐mammaliaform cynodonts and Mammaliaformes, with the latter ultimately giving rise to crown mammals. The systematics of non‐mammaliaform cynodonts has been extensively studied and is relatively well‐resolved,

The effect of the number of response cycles on the behaviour of reinforced concrete elements subject to cyclic loading [PDF]
The development of damage in reinforced concrete (RC) structures is a cumulative process. Some damage indices used to quantify damage make use of the number of response cycles as an Engineering Demand Parameter (EDP) relating with damage development ...

Damages by earthquake and libraries
日本をはじめ,地形的に地震発生の可能性のある地域での図書館の地震対策は喫緊の課題である。図書館での地震発生時での図書館,および図書館員の対応について述べる。図書館が地震に遭遇した場合,まずは図書館利用者,図書館スタッフの人命を守る,次に図書館資料を守ることである。いずれにしても図書館の免震構造,および図書館内の設備の耐震の工夫は重要である。その中でも書架の構造,固定などは地震発生被害を経験して,いくつかの教訓が得られている。日本の阪神淡路大震災,カリフォルニア州で発生した2件の地震に関連して図書館が遭遇した被害について触れた。
