Abstract The ratio of safety margin is the bridge between deterministic design and reliability design. However, the equivalence criterion between the ratios of safety margin in terms of the factor of safety (FOS) and the reliability index is ambiguous. This paper considers the traditional and reliability-based design method at the same safety level. A general form of the FOS following lognormal distribution is adopted. It was found that the variability of FOS is affected by the normalized gradient and the coefficient of variation of random variable. The ratios of safety margin in terms of the

Coal mining is an industry susceptible to slope failures, which can lead to significant economic losses and casualties. To mitigate this risk, a study was conducted to assess the stability of a post-landslide slope in the QR pit. The Factor of Safety (FOS) was calculated before and after slope improvement using Slide 6.0 software and the Bishop method. Results indicated that the initial FOS was 1.19, categorizing the slope as NOT STABLE. After improvement, the FOS increased to 1.33, classifying the slope as STABLE.

The brain and spinal cord make up the central nervous system (CNS), and as an immune-privileged site, it requires special immune surveillance and regulation. The complement system is a component of innate immunity produced locally in the CNS, since size restrictions from the blood brain barrier prevent complement proteins from easily passing through from the rest of the body. The complement pathway contributes to inflammatory cell recruitment, cell lysis, and opsonization, and thus requires regulation to avoid inappropriate activation.

Abstract:
The expected crash frequency model of Illinois Department of Transportation’s Bureau of Design and Environment needed improvement to incorporate track circuitry as well as pedestrian exposure at railroad-highway grade crossings to make the model more comprehensive. The researchers developed, calibrated, and validated three models to predict collision rates at public, at-grade railroad-highway crossings in Illinois’ six-county northeast region for prioritizing railroad-highway crossings for safety improvements. The first model updated B-factors in the existing Illinois model, which was last val

Abstract:
Lateral support provided by deep foundations can be an effective means to stabilize existing and potential landslides, and deep foundations contribute to the stability of support-of-excavation systems. However, defining the structural resistance and implementing it in a slope stability analysis that satisfies LRFD requirements is a source of significant confusion and miscommunication among geotechnical and structural designers. This report explains the implications of applying (or not) structural resistance factors at various stages of the analysis. Furthermore, most commercial slope stability

Abstract:
This project developed a three-dimensional (3D) seepage model to evaluate efficiency of 84 relief wells and factors of safety (FoS) along the Profit Island vicinity levee (PIVL), north of Baton Rouge, Louisiana. The PIVL model was built based on US Geological Survey MODFLOW-USG. Moreover, a 3D seepage model of RocScience RS3 was also built for a specific study of relief well experiments conducted by the US Army Corps of Engineers in the 1930s and 1940s. The PIVL model was calibrated with measured piezometric head data and relief well flow rates in 1997. Six flood scenarios were conducted: the

Abstract:
Review question / Objective: This systematic review aims to assess the design and implementation features of social safety programs in Tanzania. To this end, the proposed systematic review will answer the following questions: i. What are the types of social safety net interventions that have been and/or are being implemented in Tanzania? and ii. What evidence of the design and implementation features of social safety net programs can be discerned in existing literature? These review questions are framed based on the population, intervention, comparison, and outcome (PICO) framework for prepari

Full text
Abstract:
The objective is to develop fully calibrated limit states design (LSD) procedures for pipelines. Limit states design, also known as load and resistance factor design (LRFD), provides a unified approach to dealing with all relevant failure modes and load combinations of concern. It explicitly accounts for the uncertainties that naturally occur in the determination of the loads which act on a pipeline and in the resistance of the pipe to failure. The load and resistance factors used are based on reliability considerations; however, the designer is not faced with carrying out probabilistic calcul

Full text
Abstract:
The objective of this project is to evaluate reinforcing technologies, specifically, the use of composite materials for the MAOP determination of high-pressure gas or liquid transmission pipeline systems. Reinforcing a pipeline using composite materials is not for the purpose of providing strength to a damaged section. Rather, the intent is to use composite materials to establish a Maximum Allowable Operating Pressure (MAOP) with an improved safety factor as required by DOT 192 for pipelines that have been subjected to encroachment involving the construction of facilities on or near the pipeli
