Probabilistic seismic-hazard estimation for Peninsular India

, 2007
Peninsular India (10.0 degrees N-28.0 degrees N; 68.0 degrees E-90.0 degrees E) is one of the oldest and seismically most stable landmasses of the Indian plate.

A checking method for probabilistic seismic-hazard assessment: case studies on three cities [PDF]

, 2010
The conventional Cornell's source-based approach of probabilistic seismic-hazard assessment (PSHA) has been employed all around the world, whilst many studies often rely on the use of computer packages such as FRISK (McGuire FRISK-a computer program for ...

Deflection‐based assessment of residual prestress in simply‐supported bridges accounting for creep variability

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Several test methods have been proposed in the literature for measuring the level of residual prestress, most of them involving either semi‐ or fully destructive techniques for local measurements which could be highly sensitive to boundary conditions and execution details.

The Coloniality of Data: Police Databases and the Rationalization of Surveillance from Colonial Vietnam to the Modern Carceral State

The British Journal of Sociology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tracing the early adoption of computer gang databases by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department and the Los Angeles Police Department in the 1980s to the deployment of computationally‐assisted surveillance during the Vietnam War, this paper uses a genealogical approach to compare surveillance technologies developed across the arc of ...

Seasonal Habitat Selection by a Threatened Ungulate in an Industrializing Boreal Landscape

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Understanding habitat selection by Threatened wood bison in landscapes characterized by anthropogenic disturbance is important for conservation planning. During summer and winter, bison selected for linear (e.g., roads, seismic lines, pipelines) and polygonal (e.g., well sites) disturbances, unless there were high densities of linear features.

Machine Learning and Seismic Hazard: A Combination of Probabilistic Approaches for Probabilistic Seismic Hazard Analysis

Probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) integrates seismology with invitation of civil engineering. Allin Cornell’s 1968 work, developed with Dr. Emilio Rosenblueth and Dr. Luis Esteban Maraboto, revolutionized earthquake engineering by making seismology practical for construction.

Movement Responses of Seals During Pile Driving for Offshore Wind Farm Construction

Animal Conservation, EarlyView.
Despite rapid growth of the renewable energy industry to meet climate change targets, predictions of population‐level impacts on wildlife are currently hindered by a limited understanding of individual behavioural responses to these developments.
