Empirical Model of Post‐Earthquake Restoration Time for Building Components Based on Data From the 2022 Fukushima‐ken Oki Earthquake in Japan

Earthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Estimation of the time required for damaged building components to return to their pre‐earthquake conditions through repair is a critical element in assessing the seismic resilience of buildings, and it requires consideration of uncertainty.

Estimation of long-term effective doses for residents in the regions of Japan following Fukushima accident

Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2019
A large amount of radioactive material was released from the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) in 2011 and dispersed into the environment. Though seven years have passed since the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident, some parts of ...

PMU‐Based Wide Area Monitoring With Machine Learning to Prevent Blackouts in Bangladesh Power System

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
A Unified Real‐time Dynamic State Measurements (URTDSM) system with PMU and Phasor Data Concentrator (PDC) deployment plan has been proposed to avoid blackout in the Bangladeshi power system. Machine learning has been used to process data from PMU to identify abnormal events. ABSTRACT The electrical power system must be trustworthy and secure enough to

Raising children in Fukushima [PDF]

Annals of the ICRP, 2016
Before the accident at Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in March 2011, I never thought about radiation. After the accident, I originally evacuated with my two sons, but we returned home a few weeks later to be with my husband and parents-in-law as I felt that life with my family was what mattered and the very basis of my happiness.

Beyond political risk: Toward a holistic understanding of multinational enterprise resilience in the era of cascading crises

Global Strategy Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Research Summary This article develops a conceptual framework for understanding multinational enterprise (MNE) resilience in the era of cascading crises. We define resilience as the MNE's capacity to absorb disruption, maintain or restore functioning, and reconfigure operations as conditions shift.

AN AMERICAN HIBAKUSHA IN FUKUSHIMA

FUKUSHIMA JOURNAL OF MEDICAL SCIENCE, 2012
A magnitude 9.0 earthquake and tsunami originating off the east coast of Japan triggered the explosive release of radioactive isotopes from one of four nuclear power plants in the affected area. This event has been compared with the 1986 nuclear accident at Chernobyl, the 1945 atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and the intervening era of ...

Fukushima Subspaces of Quasidiffusions

Potential Analysis
Quasidiffusions are, by definition, time-changed Brownian motions on certain closed subset of $\mathbb{R}$. They admit an explicit representation of Dirichlet forms in terms of so-called speed measures. The Fukushima subspace of a Dirichlet form means another regular Dichichlet form on the same state space but having a smaller Dirichlet space.
