Assessing urban resilience [PDF]

open access: yesWIT Transactions on Information and Communication Technologies, 2012
Investigation of the resilience of cities has become increasingly important in view of the various natural and man-made threats to the sustainability of urban complexes in which more than half the world’s population lives. The paper provides an overview of the pertinent concepts as well as the various approaches to the assessment of the resilience of ...

A method for benchmarking two different resilience assessment methods

open access: yes, 2022
Assessments of objective and subjective resilience are the main methods for understanding disaster preparedness and developing policy responses. However, the two assessment outcomes are not directly comparable.

A novel quinazolinone insulin receptor inhibitor and its synergy with an EGFR inhibitor in glucose‐driven glioblastoma

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
The novel styrylquinazolinone‐based molecule W1B effectively suppresses glioblastoma by inhibiting IGF1R and EGFR. In high‐glucose microenvironments driving tumor resistance, W1B acts synergistically with the EGFR inhibitor dacomitinib. This combination safely blocks compensatory survival signaling in zebrafish xenograft models. Showcasing promising in

Resilience assessment method and enhancement measures of power transmission system under mountain fire disasters

open access: yes电力工程技术
Resilience describes the system capability of defense and recovery to extreme disasters. The transmission system, as an important part of the power system, may occur large-area power blackouts under extreme mountain fire disasters which are low ...

Assessing Resilience in Enterprise Architecture: A Systematic Review

open access: yes2020 IEEE 24th International Enterprise Distributed Object Computing Conference (EDOC), 2020
This review paper aims to explore state-of-the-art research and scientific literature about Enterprise Architecture (EA) resilience. Based on a systematic literature review, 850 articles have been subjected to evaluation for relevance. Based on the findings in 58 selected papers, we conclude that the field of EA resilience is still in its infancy.

Using resilience concepts to investigate the impacts of protected area tourism on communities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Protected area tourism is a growing trend worldwide. It has an enormous potential to impact on local communities. Traditional assessment methods tend to focus on current conditions using sustainability indicators that are often poorly chosen resulting in

Partial FAK suppression promotes tumor growth, an effect reversed by macrophage p110δ PI3K inactivation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Partial inhibition of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) can paradoxically promote tumor growth, rather than simply producing a weaker antitumor effect than that observed with strong FAK suppression. In breast cancer and melanoma models, targeting p110δ PI3K, particularly in macrophages, counteracted these tumor‐promoting effects, highlighting the importance ...

Assessing resilience at University

open access: yesProceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Higher Education Advances, 2017
Promoting quality results also requires the ability to measure outcomes and to identify what context variables can affect the student’s success. The aim of this work is to analyze the distances in terms of the results obtained to a test on generalist skills among students with different family background (advantaged vs disadvantaged) and with brilliant

Mechanisms and therapeutic opportunities of the ribotoxic stress response in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cancer cells' high translational demand creates opportunities to therapeutically target ribosome function. Ribosome stalling and collisions activate ZAKα and the ribotoxic stress response (RSR), which can trigger rapid, p53‐independent apoptosis in cancer.
