Application of tower grounding device equivalent model in the calculation of transmission line back-flashover

open access: yesThe Journal of Engineering, 2018
The modelling of tower grounding device is the key for calculation of lightning strike response and lightning withstand level. In order to solve this problem, this study proposes a method to calculate the lightning response of transmission line grounding

The lasting effect of the Romantic view of nature: How it influences perceptions of risk and the support of symbolic actions against climate change

open access: yesRisk Analysis, EarlyView.
Abstract Culture can have a major impact on how we perceive different hazards. In the Romantic period, nature was described and portrayed as mysterious and benevolent. A deep connection to nature was perceived as important. We proposed that this romantic view would be positively related to people's risk perceptions of man‐made hazards and, more ...

The use of public spatial databases in risk analysis: A US‐oriented tutorial

open access: yesRisk Analysis, EarlyView.
Abstract This tutorial focuses on opportunities and challenges associated with using six large, publicly accessible spatial databases published during the last decade by US federal agencies. These databases provide opportunities for researchers to risk‐inform policy by comparing community asset, demographic, economic, and social data, along with ...

Transition in dynamic events: The 2020 lightning complex fires in Northern California as an adaptive system

open access: yesRisk Analysis, EarlyView.
Abstract The transition from one level of operations to a next larger, more complex level while maintaining coherence as a system has stymied organizational theorists for decades. Drawing on systems theory, network analysis, and collaborative governance, we explore how networks adapt during rapidly escalating crises.

Simulation Analysis of Temperature Field of Optical Fiber Composite Overhead Ground Wire

open access: yesZhongguo dianli, 2019
The optical fiber composite overhead ground wire (OPGW) has been widely used in high voltage transmission lines. In order to study the temperature field variation of OPGW under the conditions of steady state and lightning strike, the finite element ...

3G Internet Diffusion and Secondary Education Attainment: Evidence of Opportunity Cost in Vietnam

open access: yesReview of Development Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Mobile internet diffusion has led to significant societal and economic transformations since its early diffusion, especially in the Global South. This has implied changes in human capital formation, particularly through education, and has reshaped the trade‐off between education and employment, especially among the younger population.

Blame Games of Weather‐Related Disasters: A Qualitative Research on Political Rhetoric of Government and Opposition in Türkiye

open access: yesReview of Policy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disasters exacerbate political tensions, making politicians more vulnerable to criticisms from both internal and external actors. This vulnerability fuels political actors' desire to undermine their rivals' popularity through blame games. While blame games are frequent and intense in Turkish politics, how they are linguistically constructed ...
