Abstract:
AbstractA recent study showed the importance of tornado energy as a factor in a model for tornado deaths and injuries (casualties). The model was additive under the assumption of uniform threat. Here, we test two explicit hypotheses designed to examine this additive assumption. The first hypothesis concerns energy dissipation’s effect conditional on population density and the second concerns population’s effect conditional on energy. Both hypotheses are tested using a regression model that contains the product of population density and energy dissipation. Results show that the elasticity of ca

Abstract:
Active shooting violence at confined settings, such as educational institutions, poses serious security concerns to public safety. In studying the effects of active shooter scenarios, the common denominator associated with all events, regardless of reason/intent for shooter motives, or type of weapons used, was the location chosen and time expended between the beginning of the event and its culmination. This in turn directly correlates to number of casualties incurred in any given event. The longer the event protracts, the more casualties are incurred until law enforcement or another barrier c

Abstract:
Skin carriage ofAcinetobacter calcoaceticus-baumanniicomplex was not detected among a representative sample of 102 US Army soldiers stationed in Iraq. This observation refutes the hypothesis that preinjury skin carriage serves as the reservoir for theAcinetobacterinfections seen in US military combat casualties.

Abstract:
The impact of commercial airplane crashes on the shareholder wealth of US-listed airline stocks has been the focus of many prior studies, but none have explored the concomitant impact on trading volume. We expand the scope of prior studies to include near crashes. We examine 262 ‘incidents’ from 1962 to 2018 (220 with return evidence) and document a significant (negative) wealth impact for crashes with fatalities and casualties, and an insignificant impact for incidents with no casualties. We find that log-transformed trading volume spikes upward in the three-day crash-period window and that t

Abstract:
Abstract This article employs the relative deprivation theory in order to explain the formation of violent conflicts induced by an increase in economic inequality. By using the frustration-aggression hypothesis, the author attempts to illustrate how the rise in inequality, caused by changed economic structure, can be transformed into violence, often accompanied by material and human casualties. In addition to the theoretical framework, the article relies on empirical studies carried out by using relative deprivation as a starting point. Finally, the author observes indications that inequality-

Abstract:
The hypothesis has been formulated that spatial clustering of transport line infrastructures might generate higher risks in terms of higher probability of accidents and/or more severe consequences of accidents. The risk increase is assumed to be the result of interference between transport flows. No systematic research has been performed so far to test this hypothesis. This paper therefore presents the results of an empirical study on this subject based on accident data from the Netherlands. It is concluded that clustering of infrastructures has not caused a higher probability of accidents in

Abstract:
For a systematic, empirical test of this book’s main hypothesis, we develop a research design for a quantitative analysis of low-level armed conflicts. We define these conflicts as the occurrence of politically motivated violence resulting in at least twenty-five battle deaths. The analysis examines whether low-level armed conflict escalated to full-scale civil war and surpassed a threshold of 1,000 casualties. Since World War II, roughly one-third of more than 260 separate low-level armed conflicts have escalated to civil war. Analyzing systematic patterns among these conflicts, we find stron
