The challenges of diagnosing glaucoma in myopic cases and the important role of Bruch's membrane opening-minimum rim width in the diagnosis of myopic glaucoma

Photodiagnosis and Photodynamic Therapy
Background: Glaucoma is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that can lead to blindness; furthermore, axial myopia is associated with retinal and optic nerve changes that mimic glaucoma.

A Logic-Tree Approach for Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment in the Administrative Region of Attica (Greece)

Applied Sciences, 2023
Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Assessment (PSHA) was carried out for the administrative region of Attica (Greece). Peak Ground Acceleration (PGA) and Peak Ground Velocity (PGV) values were calculated for return periods of 475 and 950 years for five sub ...

Time‐dependent seismic risk assessment of highway bridges in western Canada under mainshock‐aftershock subduction earthquakes

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 41, Issue 3, Page 2123-2149, August 2025.
This study conducts the time‐dependent seismic risk assessment of highway bridges in western Canada when subjected to Cascadia subduction earthquakes (CSE) and aftershocks (AS). The performance‐based earthquake engineering framework is extended to assess the expected annual repair cost ratio and annual restoration time of a benchmark bridge class under

Seismic Risk Analysis of Revenue Losses, Gross Regional Product and transportation systems. [PDF]

, 2013
Natural threats like earthquakes, hurricanes or tsunamis have shown seri- ous impacts on communities. In the past, major earthquakes in the United States like Loma Prieta 1989, Northridge 1994, or recent events in Italy like L’Aquila 2009 or Emilia 2012 ...

A comprehensive framework for seismic risk assessment of urban water transmission networks [PDF]

, 2018
Earthquakes are natural disasters which human beings cannot control, causing significant damage to the economy and society as a whole. In particular, earthquakes affect not only buildings but also lifeline structures such as water distribution, electric ...

An open‐access simulated earthquake ground‐motion database for an M7 Hayward Fault earthquake in the San Francisco Bay Region

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 41, Issue 3, Page 2560-2597, August 2025.
Comprehensive understanding of earthquake ground motions, particularly in the near‐fault region of large‐magnitude events, is limited by gaps in strong‐motion data. This challenge is prominent in areas with high seismic hazard but infrequent large earthquakes where data is sparse and difficult to interpret.

Assessing infrequent large earthquakes using geomorphology and geodesy in the Malawi Rift [PDF]

, 2015
In regions with large, mature fault systems, a characteristic earthquake model may be more appropriate for modelling earthquake occurrence than extrapolating from a short history of small, instrumentally observed earthquakes using the Gutenberg–Richter ...

In biomakromolekularen Komplexen können protonierte Glutamat‐ und Aspartat‐Seitenketten durch kurze und starke Wasserstoffbrückenbindungen zur Phosphodiestergruppenerkennung beitragen

Angewandte Chemie, Volume 137, Issue 27, July 1, 2025.
Die stark negativ geladenen Phosphodiestergruppen von Nukleinsäuren und zyklischen (Di‐)Nukleotiden interagieren häufig mit Aminosäuren, die polare oder positiv geladene Seitenketten enthalten. Aufgrund der Ladungsabstoßung mit ihren negativ geladenen Carboxylatgruppen enthaltenden Seitenketten gelten Glutamat und Aspartat generell als ungeeignet für ...

Basin Resonance and Seismic Hazard in Jakarta, Indonesia

Geosciences, 2018
We use earthquake ground motion modelling via Ground Motion Prediction Equations (GMPEs) and numerical simulation of seismic waves to consider the effects of site amplification and basin resonance in Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia. While spectral

Nonstationary Stochastic Simulation of Strong Ground-Motion Time Histories : Application to the Japanese Database [PDF]

, 2012
For earthquake-resistant design, engineering seismologists employ time-history analysis for nonlinear simulations. The nonstationary stochastic method previously developed by Pousse et al. (2006) has been updated.
