Scaling ratios for spectral accelerations caused by seismic site effect under site condition classifications in China

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The spectral accelerations (Sa), which are widely used as ground motion inputs in structural seismic designing, are significantly affected by local site conditions classified by near-surface geology. A novel approach of quantifying the scaling ratios for

Decentralized Marking Fault Diagnosis of Labeled Petri Nets

IEEE Access, 2023
A decentralized marking fault diagnosis method is proposed to solve the problem that increasing the number of unobservable transitions may result in the inability to diagnose faulty markings, in a class of decentralized systems modeled by labeled Petri ...

Time to Move On: The Role of Greenness in Africa and Temperatures at a Mediterranean Stopover Site in Migration Decision of Long-Distance Migratory Passerines

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022
Many migratory species have advanced their migration timing as a response to advanced breeding conditions. While data on arrival timing to breeding grounds in Europe is plentiful, information from the African departure sites are scarce.

Ethnographers of the World…United? Current Debates on the Ethnographic Study of Globalization

Journal of World-Systems Research, 2015
How does ethnography come to terms with our current “global condition”? Being a method characterized by its in-depth knowledge of a bounded space, how does ethnography cope with a world scale? How does the “global condition” affect the definitions of key
