Sensitivity of point scale runoff predictions to rainfall resolution

open access: yes, 2006
International audienceThis paper investigates the effects of using non-linear, high resolution rainfall, compared to time averaged rainfall on the triggering of hydrologic thresholds and therefore model predictions of infiltration excess and saturation ...

Probabilistic approach toward Darjeeling Himalayas landslides-A case study

open access: yesCogent Engineering, 2018
The Himalayan region with its complex geological features, steep slopes, rugged topography, and intense monsoonal rainfall create ideal conditions for landslides.

Nanobiosensor Based on Catalytic Palladium Nanoclusters and Oxidases for Bianalyte Electrochemical Determination: Glucose and Ethanol in Sweat

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A nanobiosensor for fast and simultaneous determination of sweat glucose and ethanol is presented. Deposited oxidase enzymes consume oxygen in the presence of the substrates, and co‐deposited palladium nanoclusters catalyze the electrochemical oxygen reduction, basis of the detection.

Multi-Factor Rainfall Thresholds (MF-RT) for shallow slip prediction based on field monitoring [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences
Flow-like landslides initiated as soil slips are commonly triggered by heavy rainfall infiltrating granular and partially saturated slopes. Field monitoring of suction and water content provides valuable insights into slope responses to hydraulic loads ...

Revised Rainfall Threshold in the Indonesian Landslide Early Warning System

open access: yesGeosciences, 2022
Landslides are one of the most disastrous natural hazards that frequently occur in Indonesia. In 2017, Balai Sabo developed an Indonesia Landslide Early Warning System (ILEWS) by utilizing a single rainfall threshold for an entire nation, leading to inaccuracy in landslide predictions.

A Soft Microrobot for Single‐Cell Transport, Spheroid Assembly, and Dual‐Mode Drug Screening

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A soft, untethered hydrogel microrobot enables precise single‐cell delivery, self‐assembly into 3D spheroids, and real‐time thermal actuation. Driven by light‐induced convection and embedded with gold nanorods and temperature sensors, the microrobot guides cells, modulates local microenvironments, and supports drug testing.

Influence of uncertain identification of triggering rainfall on the assessment of landslide early warning thresholds [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2018
Uncertainty in rainfall datasets and landslide inventories is known to have negative impacts on the assessment of landslide-triggering thresholds. In this paper, we perform a quantitative analysis of the impacts of uncertain knowledge of landslide ...

Model misspecification in peaks over threshold analysis

open access: yes, 2010
Classical peaks over threshold analysis is widely used for statistical modeling of sample extremes, and can be supplemented by a model for the sizes of clusters of exceedances.

Intelligent Acousto‐Electrical Metamaterials (IAM) for Sound Source Detection

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Our proposed metamaterial concept enables sound source detection using a single material, in contrast to conventional arrays that require dozens or even hundreds of transducers. We show that the coupled acoustic–vibrational–electrical responses in piezoelectric metamaterials give rise to topology‐governed charge transport, producing distinct voltage ...
