Abstract:
Abstract In Europe, calls for ecosystems to be granted rights are mounting. While socio-legal research on the Rights of Nature tends to focus on the strategies of the few success stories, less attention is given to the many failed or stagnated initiatives, many of them in Europe. “Landscaping the Rights of Nature” is both a methodological proposition and an analytical approach to examining procedures available to citizens to introduce the Rights of Nature to the courts of Europe.

Abstract:
In order to pass on an intact copy of the genome during cell division, complete and faithful DNA replication is crucial. Yet, certain areas of the genome are intrinsically challenging to replicate, which manifests as high local mutation propensity. Such regions include trinucleotide repeat sequences, common chromosomal fragile sites (CFSs), and early replicating fragile sites (ERFSs). Despite their genomic instability CFSs are conserved, suggesting that they have a biological function. To shed light on the potential function of CFSs, this review summarizes the similarities and differences of t

Abstract:
Abstract Scholars of world literature often treat a wide circulation as the implicit goal of any book or author, projecting onto them a will-to-circulate and thus viewing a reduced readership as a form of failure. I suggest that non-circulation can also be seen as potentially an aesthetic strategy or a cultural achievement. Some works display in either their explicit claims or their choice of form a resistance to circulation that is worth attending to in its own right.

Globalisation, together with increased competition amongst retailers, has applied immense pressure on retailers to become more consumer-orientated. Retailers are, consequently, trying to differentiate their offerings by providing improved services to their consumers to obtain a competitive advantage. Service failure is, however, inevitable. An unfavourable service encounter (service failure) mostly leads to dissatisfaction. A consumer’s response to dissatisfaction is referred to as “consumer complaint behaviour”.

Wellhead seals are a key component of reservoir and salt-cavern storage wells that function to seal the well from the external environment and separate stored fluids contained within the well. Loss of integrity of these seals or seal failures are a common occurrence in the storage industry. Practical guidelines on how to choose the proper sealing components and prevent seals from failing are generally lacking. In this study, data related to wellhead sealing were compiled through a literature review, discussions with wellhead experts, and a survey distributed to Pipeline Research Council Intern

Abstract:
While the United States has roughly doubled its investments in clean energy over the past 10 years, the power grid is still predominantly reliant on natural gas; gas plants provided 43 percent of generating capacity in 2022. This heavy reliance on gas plants, coupled with an assumption that gas plants are more reliable than they actually are, is a vulnerability for the power grid and for consumers. As recent evidence has shown, the US fleet of gas plants is susceptible to large-scale failures during extreme weather. For example, recent winter storms in Texas and the Southeast knocked unprecede

Abstract:
With the global increase in the use of traditional and complementary remedies for the prevention and treatment of illness, the quality and safety of these medicines have become a significant concern for all regulatory authorities. Herbal medicines are the most commonly used form of traditional and complementary medicines in the world and the efficacy and safety of herbal medicines, like conventional medicines, largely depends on their quality from planting to harvesting, preprocessing and final processing. Due to the inherent complexity of herbal medicines, often containing an array of active

Abstract:
In 2005 the National Park Service (NPS) Southeast Coast Network (SECN) began collecting water-quality data in the estuarine waters of Canaveral National Seashore as part the NPS Vital Signs monitoring program. The scope of the monitoring program includes Mosquito Lagoon and is comprised of continuous water-quality monitoring conducted by the SECN at one site and is augmented with monthly data collected at five stations by St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD). The continuous-monitoring data station is located at the Canaveral National Seashore visitor center dock and collects pH,

EFFECTS OF THE NUMBERS OF STORIES AND SPANS ON THE COLLAPSE-RESISTANCE PERFORMANCE OF MULTI-STORY STEEL FRAME STRUCTURES WITH REDUCED BEAM SECTION CONNECTIONS. The Hong Kong Institute of Steel Construction, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.18057/ijasc.2022.18.2.10.

Full text
Abstract:
The progressive collapse of a building structure under an accidental load involves a relatively complex mechanical behavior. To date, the collapse of single-story beam-column assemblies has been investigated extensively, revealing the resistance development of beams during progressive collapse. However, few studies of the progressive collapse behavior of multi-story frame structures have performed a systematic analysis of the Vierendeel action (VA) at a comprehensive level. It is difficult to convert quantitative analysis results accurately from the component level to the overall structure lev

Abstract:
Seismic performance of innovative Partially Encased Composite (PEC) column-steel beam composite frame was investigated, where the connection was strengthened by the welded T-stub. A ½ scale, two-storey, and one bay composite frame specimen was designed and fabricated for the quasi-static test. Through the experimental observation and measurements, the seismic performance were evaluated, including hysteretic characteristic, lateral stiffness, seismic energy dissipation, and ductility. The plastic damage evolution process and ductile failure mode were clarified. The results indicated that the we

DEEP LEARNING DAMAGE IDENTIFICATION METHOD FOR STEEL- FRAME BRACING STRUCTURES USING TIME–FREQUENCY ANALYSIS AND CONVOLUTIONAL NEURAL NETWORKS. The Hong Kong Institute of Steel Construction, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.18057/ijasc.2023.19.4.8.

Full text
Abstract:
Lattice bracing, commonly used in steel construction systems, is vulnerable to damage and failure when subjected to horizontal seismic pressure. To identify damage, manual examination is the conventional method applied. However, this approach is time-consuming and typically unable to detect damage in its early stage. Determining the exact location of damage has been problematic for researchers. Nevertheless, detecting the failure of lateral supports in various parts of a structure using time–frequency analysis and deep learning methods, such as convolutional neural networks, is possible.
