Challenges with Disaster Mortality Data and Measuring Progress Towards the Implementation of the Sendai Framework

open access: yesInternational Journal of Disaster Risk Science, 2019
Disasters exact a heavy toll globally. However, the degree to which we can accurately quantify their impact, in particular mortality, remains challenging.

Using ensemble quantitative precipitation forecast for rainfall-induced shallow landslide predictions

open access: yesGeoscience Letters, 2022
Heavy rainfall brought by typhoons has been recognised as a major trigger of landslides in Taiwan. On average, 3.75 typhoons strike the island every year, and cause large amounts of shallow landslides and debris flow in mountainous region.

Control-oriented implementation and model order reduction of a lithium-ion battery electrochemical model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The use of electrochemical models makes it computationally intractable for online implementation as the model is subject to a complicated mathematical structure including partial-differential equations (PDE).

Disaster Prevention and Rescue Information Service Platforms

open access: yesInternational Journal of Automation and Smart Technology, 2011
Because of its special hydrology and physiographic environmental conditions, Taiwan experiences a wide range of natural disasters, such as typhoons, floods, slope collapses, debris flows, and earthquakes, resulting in the loss of many lives and ...

Mechanical Properties of Improved Multiple-Layers Viscoelastic Damper

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2023
Viscoelastic dampers (VEDs) have been implemented successfully to reduce structural vibrations due to earthquakes and wind events. Conventional VEDs consist of two viscoelastic (VE) layers chemically bounded at their entire contact surface to three steel

Boundary reduction formula [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
An asymptotic theory is developed for general non-integrable boundary quantum field theory in 1+1 dimensions based on the Langrangean description. Reflection matrices are defined to connect asymptotic states and are shown to be related to the Green ...

Relativistic state reduction model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In order to address the measurement problem of quantum theory we make the assumption that quantum state reduction should be regarded as a genuine physical process deserving of a dynamical description.

Pohlmeyer reduction revisited

open access: yes, 2008
A systematic group theoretical formulation of the Pohlmeyer reduction is presented. It provides a map between the equations of motion of sigma models with target-space a symmetric space M=F/G and a class of integrable multi-component generalizations of ...

Dimensionality Reduction Mappings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A wealth of powerful dimensionality reduction methods has been established which can be used for data visualization and preprocessing. These are accompanied by formal evaluation schemes, which allow a quantitative evaluation along general principles and ...

Reduction Corporoplasty [PDF]

open access: yesInternational braz j urol, 2015
Here we present the first video demonstration of reduction corporoplasty in the management of phallic disfigurement in a 17 year old man with a history sickle cell disease and priapism.Surgical management of aneurysmal dilation of the corpora has yet to be defined in the literature.We preformed bilateral elliptical incisions over the lateral corpora as
