Effects of random 3D upper crustal heterogeneity on long-period (≥ 1 s) ground-motion simulations
Earth, Planets and Space, 2018 The effects of the short-wavelength heterogeneity of the crustal structure on predicted ground motion at periods of 1 s and longer were investigated by conducting three-dimensional finite-difference simulations using a detailed realistic velocity model ...

From Damage to Functionality: Remanufacturing of Thrust Roller Bearings by Tailored Forming
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Herein, the wear and fatigue behavior of repaired bearing raceways with a new powder alloy is investigated using a FE8 test‐rig and an oscillating tribometer. The tests are compared with industrial manufactured bearings to evaluate the repair quality. The repair can extend the service life of the repaired bearing to that of a new bearing and improves ...

Adaptation and resilience [PDF]
Public Health Reviews, 2016 Lessons learned, opportunities, and barriers to scaling up health adaptation were identified from evaluation reports and other materials from three multinational health adaptation projects covering 14 low- and middle-income countries and from qualitative data collected through a focus group consultation and interviews with key informants purposively ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Hydrostatic bearings excel in high‐precision applications, but their performance hinges on a continuous external supply. This study evaluates various material combinations for sliding surfaces to mitigate damage during supply failures or misalignment and to discover the most effective materials identified for enhancing the reliability and efficiency of

Future Hydroclimatic Impacts on Africa: Beyond the Paris Agreement
Earth's Future, 2019 Projections of global warming in Africa are generally associated with increasing aridity and decreasing water availability. However, most freshwater assessments focus on single hydroclimatic indicators (e.g., runoff, precipitation, or aridity), lacking ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.In this study, the mechanical response of Y‐shaped core sandwich beams under compressive loading is investigated, using deep feed‐forward neural networks (DFNNs) for predictive modeling. The DFNN model accurately captures stress–strain behavior, influenced by design parameters and loading rates.
