Abstract:

The damage of Large-span Spatial Steel Structure (LSSS) can destroy the entire engineering project, and wind-induced weld tensile damage is a structural damage, which is more likely to occur. Some damaged nodes may not immediately endanger the safety of the structure. To a certain extent, the damage can lead to the collapse of the structure, resulting in large number of casualties and property loss. In order to discover and prevent these dangers in advance, an experiment about Large-span spatial wind-induced damage self-diagnosing and warning system is designed in this paper. Firstly, the equi

Abstract:

According to Swedish environmental policy, harm to private property (mainly livestock, farm, and companion animals) caused by attacks from protected large carnivores is compensated by the state. In a case of suspected harm, a formal investigation process to assess the damage and its cause is initiated by the government. Inspections of damage on living private property are carried out by officials authorized by the regional County Administrative Board (CAB). By focusing on judgment in the making of property compensation decisions, this article demonstrates what occurs in frontline policy enactm

Abstract:

Diverse products are delivered from the production place to different destinations, during which any impacts or shakes easily lead to the damage of products. Buffering packaging materials are thus used to absorb the energy caused by damage, thereby preserving the goods. Buffering packaging materials are commonly made of plastics and foams, which are the materials that have limited buffering effect and cannot be repetitively used. Therefore, this study proposes eco-friendly buffering sandwich-structured composites using thermoplastic polyurethane honeycomb grids and three-dimensional crimped, f

Abstract:

Atomic force microscopy (AFM) has been recognized since the mid-eighties as an excellent technique to image a wide range of samples in their near-natural environment. Although the primary function of AFM is to generate three-dimensional (3D) profiles of the scanned surface, much more information can be delivered via this technique. In 1993, TappingMode was developed, which prevents tip and sample damage due to friction and shear forces and allows qualitative mechanical property mapping through phase imaging. About the same time, force spectroscopy and force volume (FV) were developed to study

AbstractBy conducting field research and analysing judgments delivered in Beijing courts from 2004 to 2011, we find that the popular notion held by China's trade partners of the inadequacy of intellectual property protection is only partly supported by the empirical evidence. The likelihood of winning lawsuits is higher for foreign than domestic plaintiffs and the extremely low damages ruled by Chinese courts are due to particular causes. Courts lack consistent methods to calculate incurred losses in intellectual property right (IPR) infringements and consequently routinely apply the statutory

Abstract:

A transdermal drug delivery system (TDDS) is a method that provides drug adsorption via the skin. TDDS could replace conventional oral administration and blood administration because it is easily accessible. However, it is still difficult to design efficient TDDS due to the high barrier property of skin covered with stratum corneum, which inhibits the permeation of drug molecules. Thus far, TDDS methods by applying physical stimuli such as microneedles and chemical stimuli such as surfactants have been actively developed. However, it has been hard to avoid inflammation at the administration si

Abstract:

This study formulates a dynamical system for the control of a single product inventory system in accordance with the random value of demand and the percentage of damaged product during the delivery process. The formulated model has the form of a linear state-space system comprising of two disturbances, which represents the random value of demand and the percentage of the damaged product during delivery. The optimal value of the product amount ordered to the supplier is properly calculated by using the linear quadratic gaussian (LQG) method. The controller is used by the manager to make invento

Abstract:

The cement slurry is a mixture of cement, water and additives which is established at the surface for injecting inside hole. The compressive strength is considered the most important properties of slurry for testing the slurry reliability and is the ability of slurry to resist deformation and formation fluids. Compressive strength is governed by the sort of raw materials that include additives, cement structure, and exposure circumstances. In this work, we use micro silica like pozzolanic materials. Silica fume is very fine noncrystalline substantial. Silica fume can be utilized like material

Abstract:

“Light horsemen,” a Komsomol initiative for performing functions of social control over the work of state machinery, played an important part in the life of Soviet society in late 1920s–1950s. It encompassed various social spheres and strata. The article draws on the documents from the Russian State Archive of Social and Political History to offer a first inquiry into the “light horsemen.” Pioneer “horsemen” helped to prevent train accidents and tampering on the national railways. At postal enterprises, they checked the quality and promptness of letters and newspapers delivery to the addressee

Abstract:

This article takes a fresh look at the ‘economic loss rule’ in torts concerning damage or destruction of property: that is, the rule that while the owner of the damaged property can claim for all consequential losses subject only to remoteness limitations, claims by others for losses they suffer as a result of the damage are severely limited. The problems of anomaly and arbitrariness caused by the rule are well documented. The argument put forward here, however, is that these problems arise not so much because the non-owner has too few rights, but rather because the owner has too many. My conc

Abstract:

In studies of damage to classes of property in earthquakes, the damage ratio for a class as a whole, denoted D¯r, can differ appreciably from the mean damage ratio Drm of properties in the class. Two factors that influence the propensity of D¯r and Drm to differ are the skewness of the distribution of property values and any systematic relation that may exist between property value and damage ratio. The existence of such relations is demonstrated using data from two major New Zealand earthquakes, at Napier ( Mw7.8, 1931) and Edgecumbe ( Mw6.5, 1987). A common trend is that the probability of a

Abstract:

Abstract A series of thunderstorms on 24 May 2011 produced significant hail in the Dallas–Fort Worth (DFW) metroplex, resulting in an estimated $876.8 million (U.S. dollars) in insured losses to property and automobiles, according to the Texas Department of Insurance. Insurance claims and policy-in-force data were obtained from five insurance companies for more than 67 000 residential properties located in 20 ZIP codes. The methodology for selecting the 20 ZIP codes is described. This study evaluates roofing material type with regard to resiliency to hailstone impacts and relative damage costs

Abstract:

Coastal wetlands dampen the impact of storm surge and strong winds. Studies on the economic valuation of this protective service provided by wetland ecosystems are, however, rare. Here, we analyze property damage caused by 88 tropical storms and hurricanes hitting the United States between 1996 and 2016 and show that counties with more wetland coverage experienced significantly less property damage. The expected economic value of the protective effects of wetlands varies widely across coastal US counties with an average value of about $1.8 million/km2per year and a median value of $91,000/km2.

Abstract:

Flooding is one of the leading threats of natural disasters to human life and property, especially in densely populated urban areas. Rapid and precise extraction of the flooded areas is key to supporting emergency-response planning and providing damage assessment in both spatial and temporal measurements. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) technology has recently been recognized as an efficient photogrammetry data acquisition platform to quickly deliver high-resolution imagery because of its cost-effectiveness, ability to fly at lower altitudes, and ability to enter a hazardous area.
