Abstract:
Mucormycosis is a rare but an opportunistic fungal infection. It has recently gained awareness due to its association with covid-19. The main cause is filamentous fungus Rhizopus, which can be inhaled through the nasal passage, oral cavity or even through a cut in the skin, leading to black masses and destruction of bone in hard palate, nasal cavity and skull. Patients suffering from covid-19 are on steroids, which interferes with the patient’s immunity and blood sugar levels leading to spread of black fungus. Hence precise knowledge about black fungus, its mode of transmission and precautions to prevent the infection is considered utmost priority in recent times.

Abstract:
The objective of this research is to assess the effects of herdsmen menace on tourism. Secondary data about insecurity caused by herdsmen attack were collected from news media using Google search and were subjected to descriptive statistics. The classical theory of structural functionalism and Marxian theory of historical materialism were used to explain and predict the implications of herdsmen attack on tourism. Findings of the study identified farmland destruction, attack on villages, murder of victims, kidnap and clash with farmers, injuries, rape, stealing of farm produce, robbery, and terrorism as menaces perpetrated by the herdsmen. The dysfunctional part of Nigerian societal structure which the theories used in this study identified that the contradiction between Nigerian economy and social control which was unstable leads to insurgency, and could affect the participation of Nigerian citizens and foreigners in tourism. Safety and security concerns for international and local travelers occasioned by terrorist attacks on highways in southwest Nigeria could make tourism destinations and businesses suffer from low patronage. Due to issues of insecurities along highways in southwest Nigeria, the future of family tourism, agri-tourism and rural tourism could be affected in capturing heterogeneity and mobility of the family market.

Abstract:
Abstract This study investigated the social and economic effects of the menace of Fulani herdsmen crises in Nigeria. The study specifically examined the causes of Fulani herdsmen and farmers clashes in Nigeria, and the social and economic effects of the menace of Fulani herdsmen in Nigeria. The sample of the study consisted of 250 farmers and 150 respondents from Fulani tribe selected from affected Local Government areas in Southwest, Nigeria via purposive sampling technique. A questionnaire titled Economic and Social Effects of Herdsmen Clashes Questionnaire (ESEHCQ) was used to collect data. Descriptive statistics and inferential statistics of t-test were used to analyze the data generated from respondents. The findings revealed that the major cause of the conflict was destruction of crops. The social effect of the menace of Fulani herdsmen are loss of human life, sexual harassment of human life, acquiring of weapons/arms, reduction in quality of social relationship, reduction of social support and high cases of rape while the economic effect of the menace of Fulani herdsmen are reduction in output and income of farmers/nomads, loss of produce in storage, displacement of farmers, scarcity of agricultural products, loss of house and properties and infrastructural damages. The findings also revealed that farmers and Fulani perception of the causes of Fulani herdsmen and farmers clashes in Nigeria are not different while farmers and Fulani perception of the social effects and economic effects of Fulani herdsmen and farmers clashes in Nigeria are different. Based on the findings, it was recommended among others that representatives of the host communities and Fulani herdsmen should be conveyed under a public forum and involved in the decision making and permitted to take part actively in the planning procedure of restoring peace to most of the affected communities.

Abstract:
Since the devastating incident of 9/11, the terrorists have become more destructive and transnational in nature. This contemporary trend in terrorism has poured new seeds of unrest and turmoil around the globe. The emergence of Islamic States in Iraq and Syria is one of the same worries, having potential of massive destruction and fatalities across the region. Being wealthiest terrorist organization with huge stockpiles of weapons IS declared caliphate in 2014. This is alarming for the international community because IS has emerged as an organized, structured, well trained and highly motivated force in contemporary times. Though, there have been efforts launched to sweep this ferocious group by the US led alliance and regional stakeholders as well, these efforts remained either inadequate or counterproductive. The prevailing situation in the region concerned has also caused tensions in EU, South Asia and rest of the world. Keeping this backdrop in view, this study investigates the emergence, structure, funding sources and nature of terrorist activities of IS. Moreover, this research would be an attempt to highlight the challenges and opportunities for countering the menace of IS

Abstract:
Farmer-herder conflict in Nigeria mainly involves disputes over land between agrarian communities and nomadic Fulani herdsmen resulting to loss of farmlands and crops, which consequently affects the nation's economy. Engagement of local security operatives in stopping this menace of the herders have proved abortive. Hence, this work proposes a farmland surveillance-alert system using unmanned aerial vehicles for the detection of cattle presence on farmlands as a solution to curbing the problem of farm invasion and destruction. The technique modifies CNN-YOLOV2 architecture, the outcome was accessed with DJI phantom 4 captured 656 images for the detection of cattle invasion. The system on detecting cattle presence above a threshold level sends SMS to farmer’s designated number. The system achieved an average confidence score of 0.92 for the test dataset and 0.72 on real-life data. Hence, it can be employed to mitigate incessant farm invasion and destruction problem and in other surveillance systems. Keywords: convolutional neural network, unmanned aerial vehicles, surveillance, mean average confidence score, yolov2, short messaging service.

Abstract:
This paper assesses flood incidences and their socio-economic implications in Damaturu. The study examined people's awareness of the flashflood, determined the frequency of the menace far year, read the causes, assessed the effects of the problem and identified the control measures that were put in place. The study utilizes both primary and secondary data. The primary includes observation, interview, use of camera and questionnaire. In contrast, the secondary used relevant journals to justify the necessary findings. The study revealed that most of the respondents were aware of the existence of the flood. The study also showed that the menace used to occur more than once a year. Moreover, the study found that the primary cause of the flood includes Encroachments posed by human activities, heavy rainfall and poor drainage system. On the other hand, the study revealed that the significant effects of floods in the study area include damage to their houses and farmland. Lastly, the study found out that very few in the study area are using sandbags to limit the destruction, so 0it concludes by identifying the reasons for the flash floods as both natural and human induces; so finally, the study recommends the establishment of the functional hydrological office in Damaturu to monitor the flow of floods, Proper mapping of flood-prone zones, law enforcement and finally Government needs to encourage enlightenment about the wrong side of violating environment and help the victims that are affected by the flooding in the study area

Full text
Abstract:
The threat of death hung over every aspect of pirate life during the Golden Age of piracy. They threatened governors and governments who dared to capture, prosecute, and hang their fellow buccaneers. They threatened their victims for running away, for fighting back, or for hiding their money. They even threatened death on each other should any of them suggest leaving off their chosen course or for betraying their company. Even the iconic skull and crossbones “Jolly Roger” pirate flag was a visible, physical symbol of a threat of death: for victims it was a reminder that surrender may mean mercy, but resistance would be fatal; and for the Pirates themselves, a grim reminder that capture or failure could mean their end. Many pirate crews in the Golden Age took this menace of death to the extreme by threatening to blow up their ship to avoid the noose, promising to take prisoners and pirates, captives and captors, and gold and galleon to the bottom of the ocean, going “merrily to Hell together”. Yet despite their boasts and despite embracing the symbols of death, when the time came to make good on their oaths, few of these crews took that final explosive step and fewer still succeeded. This paper examines twenty incidents from the Golden Age of piracy in which pirates or their victims threatened or attempted to blow up their ships and themselves to avoid capture. Witness statements, period newspaper accounts, and trial testimony reveal that the threat was frequent but the attempt was not. In the end it was often prevented by the pirates themselves after a change of heart, despite promising one another that they would “live & dye together”.

Full text
Abstract:
The paper deals with experimental simulation measuring and the analysis of defect distribution in passenger car tire under dynamic loading. The main reason for detection of defect extension is to recognize an influence of closed air, small bubbles, separations in tire and it is mainly connected with its quality during its service in a vehicle in terms of road safety. This analysis should help constructors to solve critical conditions in tire casing, whether material selection and individual components proportions are suitable and fit or even the whole construction of tire casing is suitable. The reason for detection of internal defects in tire casing is to avoid the wear of those tires which already contain some internal defects and already recognised separations, which could propagate during the movement of vehicles. This is closely connected with the occurrence of tire destruction and the main purpose is to prevent its critical status and later vehicle crash and human life menace.

Abstract:
RésuméLes attentats du 11 septembre ont mis en lumière la capacité d’action et de destruction des réseaux terroristes et l’impuissance des institutions étatiques traditionnelles verticales face à cette nouvelle forme de menace. L’une des solutions proposées par les praticiens de la sécurité est de recourir à l’organisation en réseau afin de rendre plus efficace la lutte contre le terrorisme et le crime organisé. Cependant, comme nous le montrerons dans la première partie, le discours sur la prééminence des réseaux précédait les attaques du 11 septembre 2001, ce qui a permis une mise en oeuvre rapide aux États-Unis, en Europe et au Canada. Loin de constituer un phénomène particulier, les dimensions diachronique et synchronique des réseaux de sécurité seront abordées dans la deuxième partie. Cette description et cette mise en contexte fourniront un éclairage factuel à la troisième partie, qui amorcera un débat théorique sur la valeur du concept de réseau pour comprendre la gouvernance de la sécurité après le 11 septembre.

Abstract:
Dragons, being imaginary creatures, escape the umbra of extinction shadowing multiple species on earth today. We can trace their lineage from Homer (at least in the European tradition) to the personal mount of of Daenerys Targaryen, Drogon, in Game of Thrones; or, from Beowulf to J. R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit. Because they are textual creatures, dragons display a re-silience and capacity to mutate that makes them eloquent ontological signifiers in mythic narratives, as motifs of epistemological uncertainty in folklore and cultural memory, and as embodiments of extra-human/pre-modern intrusions in the workings of history. Whereas Chinese dragons are often beneficial to the human species, European variants (including those found in Celtic folklore) are not. Dragons spell death and destruction; they demand human sacrifices, as in the legend of St. George. Their appearance suggests power and menace of extraordinary dimensions, as in Lewis Carroll’s Jabberwock. (The Jabber-wock was first illustrated by John Tenniel in 1871 as a dragon, and the tradition continues well into the present day, in Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland, for example.) Dragons collude with destructive forces; their power to annihilate everything that stands for “human” is unwittingly referred to in Kanye West’s words above.2 I suggest in this essay that the image of the dragon offers us a portal into the highly ornate symbolic structures of W. B. Yeats’s historiography and his vision of the apocalyptic.

Abstract:
Die Hauptursachen für die derzeitige weltweite Krise der biologischen Vielfalt sind Lebensraumzerstörung und Übernutzung. Wir wissen jedoch nicht, wie sich diese beiden Faktoren einzeln und zusammen auf die verschiedenen Aspekte biologischer Vielfalt auswirken und wie sie sich im Laufe der Zeit verändern. Da beide Bedrohungen weit verbreitet sind, verhindern dies die Entwicklung wirksamer Schutzstrategien. Das übergeordnete Ziel dieser Arbeit war räumliche und zeitliche Veränderungsmuster der Auswirkungen von Lebensraumzerstörung und Übernutzung auf die biologische Vielfalt zu verstehen. Ich habe diese Bedrohungsgeographien mit hoher räumlicher Auflösung und über drei Jahrzehnte hinweg für verschiedene Aspekte biologischer Vielfalt untersucht: Arten, Lebensgemeinschaften und taxonomische, phylogenetische und funktionale Facetten biologischer Vielfalt. Ich konzentrierte mich auf den 1,1 Millionen km² großen Gran Chaco, den größten tropischen Trockenwald der Welt und einen globalen Entwaldungs-Hotspot. Meine Ergebnisse zeigen, dass sich im Laufe von 30 Jahren die räumlichen Auswirkungen der einzelnen Bedrohungen auf größere Gebiete ausdehnten als nur auf die abgeholzte Fläche. Dies führte zu einem Verlust an hochwertigen und sicheren Gebieten für den Jaguar, die gesamte Großsäugergemeinschaft und alle Facetten der Säugetiervielfalt. Beide Bedrohungen trugen wesentlich zum Rückgang biologischer Vielfalt bei, ihre relative Bedeutung variierte jedoch je nach Art und Facette der biologischen Vielfalt. Zudem haben die Gebiete, in denen beide Bedrohungen zusammenwirken, im Laufe der Zeit zugenommen, was den Verlust der biologischen Vielfalt wahrscheinlich noch verschlimmert hat. Diese Arbeit unterstreicht, wie wichtig es ist, die Auswirkungen mehrerer Bedrohungen im Laufe der Zeit gemeinsam zu bewerten, um den menschlichen Einfluss auf die biologische Vielfalt besser verstehen zu können und wirksame Schutzstrategien zu finden.<br>The main drivers of the current global biodiversity crisis are habitat destruction and overexploitation. Yet, we lack understanding of their individual and combined spatial impact on different aspects of biodiversity, and how they change over time. Because both threats are common, these knowledge gaps preclude building more effective conservation strategies. The overarching goal of this thesis was to understand how the impacts of habitat destruction and overexploitation on biodiversity change in space and over time. I assessed these geographies of threat at high spatial resolutions and over three decades for different biodiversity aspects: species, communities, and the taxonomic, phylogenetic, and functional facets of biodiversity. I focused on the 1.1 million km² Gran Chaco, the largest tropical dry forest globally, and a global deforestation hotspot. Results reveal that over 30 years, the spatial impacts of each threat expanded over larger areas than the area deforested. This resulted in widespread losses of high-quality and safe areas for the jaguar, the entire larger mammal community and for all facets of the mammalian diversity. Such declines suggest a generalized biotic impoverishment that includes the loss of species, evolutionary history, and ecological functions across much of the Chaco. Both threats contributed substantially to biodiversity declines, and their relative importance varied among species and biodiversity facets. Moreover, the areas where both threats synergize increased over time, likely exacerbating biodiversity losses. For each biodiversity aspect, I identified priority areas of safe and high-quality habitats, and hotspots of high threat impacts, which could guide more effective complementary proactive and reactive conservation strategies. This thesis highlights the importance of jointly assessing the impact of multiple threats over time to better understand the impact of humans on biodiversity and to identify effective ways to mitigate them.<br>Los principales factores de la actual crisis de la biodiversidad global son la destrucción del hábitat y la sobreexplotación. Sin embargo, desconocemos su impacto espacial, tanto individual como combinado, sobre los diferentes aspectos de la biodiversidad, y cómo cambian en el tiempo. Como ambas amenazas son comunes, estos vacíos de conocimiento impiden elaborar estrategias de conservación más eficaces. El objetivo general de esta tesis fue comprender cómo los impactos de la destrucción del hábitat y la sobreexplotación en la biodiversidad cambian en el espacio y en el tiempo. Evalué estas geografías de las amenazas a altas resoluciones espaciales y a lo largo de tres décadas para diferentes aspectos de la biodiversidad: especies, comunidades y las facetas taxonómica, filogenética y funcional de la biodiversidad. Me centré en el Gran Chaco, de 1,1 millones de km², el mayor bosque seco tropical del mundo y un foco global de deforestación. Los resultados revelan que, a lo largo de 30 años, los impactos espaciales de cada una de las amenazas se extendieron por areas mayores que la superficie deforestada. Esto dio lugar a pérdidas extendidas de áreas seguras y de alta calidad para el jaguar, la comunidad de mamíferos grandes y para todas las facetas de la diversidad de mamíferos. Estos declives sugieren un empobrecimiento biótico generalizado que incluye la pérdida de especies, historia evolutiva y funciones ecológicas en gran parte del Chaco. Ambas amenazas contribuyeron sustancialmente al declive de la biodiversidad, y su importancia relativa varió entre especies y facetas de la biodiversidad. Además, las áreas en las que ambas amenazas sinergizan aumentaron en el tiempo, probablemente exacerbando las pérdidas de biodiversidad. Para cada aspecto de la biodiversidad, identifiqué áreas prioritarias de hábitats seguros y de alta calidad, y focos de alto impacto de las amenazas, que podrían orientar estrategias de conservación complementarias más eficaces, tanto proactivas como reactivas. Esta tesis destaca la importancia de evaluar conjuntamente el impacto de múltiples amenazas a lo largo del tiempo para comprender mejor el impacto de los humanos en la biodiversidad e identificar vías eficaces para mitigarlas.

Full text
Abstract:
Ce travail de thèse porte sur les destructions matérielles de la Grande Guerre et plus particulièrement sur la manière dont la société française s’est emparée des représentations de ruines pour en faire un symbole de douleur. Première conséquence directe et visible d’un conflit, les ruines témoignent de la guerre, de sa conduite, mais aussi des souffrances vécues par les militaires et les populations civiles. De l’artiste officiel rattaché aux armées au simple citoyen non mobilisé, en passant par le soldat anonyme, tous ont évoqué pendant la Première Guerre mondiale les destructions matérielles, les paysages désolés, la terre bouleversée par l’artillerie. Photographiées, dessinées, filmées, exposées à Paris, Londres ou Genève, les représentations de ruines se sont ainsi affichées dans les journaux, ont circulé sous forme de cartes postales et ont été reproduites dans divers ouvrages. Ces représentations iconographiques ont été instrumentalisées dès le commencement du conflit pour appuyer des discours contribuant à mobiliser les populations et à convaincre les pays neutres du bien-fondé de la guerre. Elles sont ensuite devenues une manière de rendre visible le conflit, mais surtout de témoigner de la violence nouvelle de cette guerre d’artillerie. Les descriptions littéraires en firent des corps vivants, blessés, transpositions anthropomorphes des soldats dont on montrait peu les corps. Cibles de la violence des armes, corps symboliques, fragiles, elles incarnèrent donc successivement le corps du combattant, puis le corps sacré de la Nation. La paix revenue, les ruines furent mobilisées une dernière fois pour appuyer les demandes de réparations de guerre. Elles furent aussi honorées par des remises de décorations et valorisées dans les circuits touristiques. Le débat autour des ruines se réduisit alors à un questionnement sur la conservation des vestiges de guerre<br>This PhD work focuses on the material destruction caused by the Great War and more specifically on the way French society used the representations of ruins as a symbol of pain. As a first direct and visible consequence of conflict, ruins bear testimony to it, to its course, but also to the suffering of soldiers and civilian populations. Everybody, from the official military artist, the anonymous soldier to the ordinary citizen, evoked the material destruction, the desolate landscapes and the earth upheaved by artillery shells during the First World War. Photographed, drawn, filmed, exhibited in Paris, London or Geneva, the representations of ruins were shown in newspapers, they have been distributed as postcards and have also been reproduced in various works. These iconographic representations were used from the very beginning of the conflict to support the arguments used to mobilize populations and convince neutral countries of the validity of the war. They then became a way of making the conflict visible, but especially to testify the new violence caused by artillery. The Literary descriptions presented them as living, wounded bodies, as anthropomorphic transpositions of the soldiers whose bodies were rarely displayed. Targets of armed violence, symbolic bodies and fragile, ruins have embodied first of all the body of the warrior and subsequently the sacred body of the Nation. Once peace had been restored, the ruins were mobilized one last time to reinforce the demands for war reparations. They were also honoured through decorative ceremonies and valued through organized tourist tours. Since then the debate around ruins has been minimized to a question of their conservation as remnants of war

Abstract:
Les inventions biotechnologiques ont un double visage, une face bienveillante et une face terrifiante, chacune source potentielle de risques majeurs. Comment les contrôler et les réguler ? La recrudescence des catastrophes majeures (crises sanitaires) liées à l'usage de produits biotechnologiques, d'une part, puis l'échec à l'adoption d'un protocole de vérification à la Convention d'interdiction des armes biologiques suivi de l'émergence de nombreuses publications à risques dans le domaine des biotechnologies, d'autre part, démontrent l'omniprésence et la transversalité de cette problématique. Par leur essence duale, les biotechnologies appellent des solutions globales. La voie d'une gestion cohérente semble s'ouvrir au travers d'un corps de règle prenant tous ces paramètres en considération, les risques majeurs. L'avantage de cette législation, si elle admet une modification préalable de la nomenclature des risques majeurs en y intégrant les risques liés aux conflits, reposera sur sa globalité et sur la responsabilisation de tous. Face à une menace biotechnologique qui est perçue comme dominante dans les années à venir, l'émerge d'un ordre public mondial favorable à un accroissement de la responsabilité des Etats à l'égard de la sécurité humaine serait souhaitable. Le but de toute institution étatique étant de garantir à ses ressortissants leur sécurité et leur sûreté quelles que soient les circonstances, cet ordre public pourrait trouver ses bases au sein des réglementations relatives aux droits de l'homme et au droit de l'environnement ; réglementations déjà émancipées de la distinction entre situations de paix, de crises ou de conflits

Abstract:
AbstractThe use of biomass and biofuels, such as wood, charcoal, petroleum, kerosene, and gas, is becoming competitive based on the level of development of each nation. However, charcoal production (CP) and marketing now tends to be a major business among many households in both rural and urban communities with no consideration of its effects on climate change adaptation. While the research question considers the various definition of climate change adaptation, and the importance of charcoal production in Nigeria, the manuscript speaks mainly of the problems of charcoal production, the lack of planning to address these problems, and the lack of planning to move the communities away from this practice and out of poverty. It addresses the impacts of charcoal production on agriculture, such as lack or loss of labor and destruction of arable lands. The paper discusses the effect of charcoal production on health. Also, the environmental problems of CP are highlighted in the manuscript. The policy frameworks on forestry by the Federal Ministry of Environment 2006 with its flaws will be included. Remedy such as the establishment of a Land Use Planning Agency (LUPAG) and panacea for greening the charcoal value chain issues will be discussed. Lastly, attention is given to the agricultural adaptation strategies to climate change which are capable of reducing charcoal production, such as mixed cropping.

Abstract:
AbstractThe impacts of flood on the Nigerian population over the years have been enormous. This is because the attendant associated risks such as destruction of lives and properties, livelihood displacement, and impoverishment of victims arising from increasing flood cases have constituted a threat to the citizens’ survival and therefore inform the attention the menace has drawn among scholars, policy analyst. This chapter has as its primary aim, a critical assessment of the impacts of government responses over the plight of victims of flooding in Nigeria over the years under review. Thus, special attention is given in this chapter to the various barriers or challenges facing government response to the plight of flood victims in Nigeria. Finally, some valuable steps, which if taken will reduce these barriers or challenges, are outlined. Though, the study adopted the use of secondary sources of data collection via content analysis, the experiences and knowledge gathered in this chapter will be strategically useful to people and organizations interested in the government of Nigeria’s response to the plight of flood victims, barriers inhibiting the success of fund utilization in reducing the suffering and impoverishment of the flood victims, number of deaths, and population displaced as a result.

Abstract:
The distribution of information technology is a step forward in accelerating rapidity and efficiency of transferring information. As each system, that is subjected on different anomalies, so that computer information systems are also subjected to different disorders to make a stop or destruction of it. There is a question: who would like to do harm to the system which is produced for people and society needs? HUMAN BEING is the response. However, it is not every human being, but a person, popularly called a hacker, who is educated in the information technology field and who makes damage, using computers and the Internet. Hacking and hacktivism as a function of information systems and technologies, expressed as a pattern of ethical or unethical hacking, represent a global menace, for some people, as well as whole institutions and arrangements. The actual problem, imposing here, is how creators and users of computer information systems can find a solution, or compatible protection and preventive acting in those areas where such a problem appears.

Abstract:
Abstract The introduction features German naturalist Alexander von Humboldt (1769–1859), who visited the circum-Caribbean region for a number of years at the turn of the nineteenth century and wrote about it for the rest of his life. His observations and wide-ranging interests—especially his recognition of the binaries of land and sea, humans and animals, bewitching beauty and nightmarish horrors, exuberance and menace, utopian visions and dystopian realities, health and sickness—prefigure many of the themes of this book. His view of nature, confirmed and elaborated by his tropical sojourn, was that it was a web, in which all elements were connected. It was a living whole, a unified ecosystem, always prone to the dangers of environmental destruction, deforestation, and climatic shocks. The introduction then raises and provisionally answers the four key questions that animate this book: why focus on this part of the world, specifically? Who are the pioneers of Caribbean environmental history? How is the region defined geographically? Finally, what are the important chronological markers? The introduction emphasizes the mixing, movement, and displacement of peoples that led to intense sociocultural interaction and hybridity. The term for this moving and mixing is creole, which designates any person or thing born or created in the Caribbean, with an ancestry external to the region. The rest of the book elaborates on the emergence of this creole ecology resulting from the constant arrival, dispersal, and mingling of peoples, plants, pathogens, and products.

Abstract:
This chapter assesses some of the plausible triggers that could start a process of societal devolution. The danger areas to worry about include downturns in the Mensch cycle, ecological disasters, landlessness-based violence, and increase in patriarchy. Downturns in Mensch cycles are inevitable. Ecological hazards are harder to predict, but it is unlikely that the world faces absolutely no environmental threats whatsoever. The world is already experiencing more frequent and intense low-level wars from increased landlessness. Will that lead to something more serious? Who can say? A global snapback to traditional patriarchy seems unlikely, but this process is occurring in more localized areas. In those settings, the effects of the limitation of women's activity have already led to significant damage.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter focuses on the collapse of the Republic and the imposition of an authoritarian regime by Catholic conservatives led by Dollfuß in 1933‒4 and the subsequent conquest and occupation of Austria by Hitler and the Nazis in 1938. Following the implosion of parliament on March 4, 1933 Dollfuß began to undermine key facets of the existing political order. The record before us leads inescapably to the conclusion that Dollfuß was in full control of his Cabinet, and he was only too willing to follow the urgings of those who wanted a swift attack on the Social Democrats, not simply to protect Austria against Nazi Germany but to destroy the hated “Marxist” experiment in Vienna that epitomized all that was wrong with the modern world after 1918. The chapter provides a detailed account of the civil war of February 1934 that empowered Dollfuß’s final victory over the left, his subsequent murder by Nazi thugs in July 1934, and the haphazard efforts of his successor, Kurt von Schuschnigg, to salvage the Catholic dictatorship in the face of the massive popularity of the Nazi menace. The chapter then provides a detailed account of the Nazi takeover in 1938, including a description of the destruction of the Viennese Jewish community and an evaluation of the extent to which ordinary Austrians were involved in or supported the Nazi terror state and the Holocaust from 1938 to 1945. It concludes with the conquest of Vienna by the Red Army in April 1945.

Abstract:
In contemporary society, the production and use of plastics is growing due to their assorted applications. However, these tendencies result to production of plastic waste whose effects to the environment are destructive. This chapter explores the production tendencies of plastics and plastic-waste chronologically, discusses its negative environmental effects, and proposes the adoption of biodegradation as a management approach. A number of effects including death, retarded growth and development, emergence of cancers, and altered physiology are associated with ingestion of plastics in animals and humans. Water and air pollution is associated with unscientific disposal of plastic waste resulting to leaching and release of greenhouse gases. The use of microbes such as bacteria and fungi that have inherent enzymes such as lipases, esterases, hydrolases, and amylases is discussed as a sustainable solution to the plastic menace. The successful use of biodegradation must be coupled with scientific research to optimise the factors influencing the process.

Abstract:
The Black Sea currently has been becoming a stunning and dangerous spot in confrontation between the Russian Federation and the USA. The confrontation caused fragmentation in the geostrategic equilibrium and balance of power between NATO and the Russian Federation in the Black Sea Region, and considering flexing muscles, including with strategic armament, the “New Cold War” scenario's ramifications could stagger regional geopolitics into the most dramatic wargame arena. Moreover, in conjunction with traditional military threats mentioned above are coming out on the scene so-called “non-traditional” military threats – international terrorism, drug smuggling and drug cartel activation, aggressive separatism, violent non-state actors, etc. Hence, the situation in aegis of the wider Black Sea region includes areas such as MENA, Caucasus-Caspian, and South-East Europe with involvement of non-state actors (like Al-Qaida, DAESH, and even Taliban). This could increase the geopolitical stalemate with inclusion of WMD elements (notable biological agents and so-called “dirty bombs”).

Abstract:
The Dead Sea occupies a linear down-dropped region between two roughly parallel faults along the central segment of the major northsouth- trending crustal rift that extends about 1,100 km from the Red Sea through the Gulf of Elath to Turkey. This rift or geosuture separates the Arabian crustal sub-plate on the east from the Sinai one on the west. An origin as early as Precambrian is possible (Bender, 1974; Zilberfarb, 1978). Crystalline crust along the north-south trough of the Sinai sub-plate is about 40 km thick in contrast with a thickness of half as much above ridges along both flanks (Ginsburg and Gvirtzman, 1979). Toward the north the ridges appear to converge (Neev, Greenfield, and Hall, 1985). Since the Miocene period the Arabian plate has moved north about 105 km relative to the Sinai plate. This sort of crustal movement along either side of a rift is termed strike-slip faulting. One result of it was the opening of the Red Sea relative to the Gulf of Suez. The Dead Sea graben, a down-dropped block between two roughly parallel faults, occupies the central segment of the long crustal rift. The boundary between these is rather sharp along the east shore of the sea (Frieslander and Ben-Avraham, 1989). Actual post-Miocene movement was along not just a single major fault but was distributed among numerous sub-parallel faults that form a 100-km-wide belt in which movements were transferred from one fault to another (Eyal et al., 1981; Gilat and Honigstein, 1981). Recent movements have occurred along the south segment of the north-south-trending Arava fault south of the Amazyahu transverse fault (Zak and Freund, 1966). These strike-slip movements probably did not continue after Miocene along the main East fault of the Dead Sea, which is the north extension of the Arava wrench fault. In contrast, recent movements have been present along the north-northeast- trending Jordan or Dead Sea fault (Ben-Menahem et al., 1977, fig. 1). The movements extend south from east of Jericho in the north along the base of the west submarine slope of the sea and the elongate salt diapir of Mount Sedom as far as the Amazyahu fault in the south.

Abstract:
The existence of earthen domed houses constructed of mud bricks has been attested for at least 5000 years in Syria. Earthen villages are most extensive and recognized as some of the richest Earthen Villages in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). This construction technique which has been perpetuated in the region without discontinuity is currently experiencing a painful decline. Only a handful of master masons still have the know-how necessary to build the domes. It is therefore to be feared that, after centuries of transmission, the experience and skills of these craftsmen will disappear. These specialists knew how to build modest houses which were integrated into their environment without harming it. And though heritage should never be the target of any clashes , during the conflict which has raged since 2011, Syrian heritage has been the object of significant destruction, looting, and the damage. This is very significant in historic cities and rural landscapes. Among the objects damaged the most are the domed houses. This paper discusses the basic architectural details and features of traditional construction system, as well as, current threats, the maintenance and future of the domed houses during and after the war, in addition to the role of rural women in rehabilitating and applying traditional techniques and methods. Additionally, it suggests a brief documentation and digitalizing for tangible and intangible heritage of rural communities living in domed mud houses. The paper proposes documenting and preserving by detailing the tangible heritage damaged by conflict, and giving an intensive training to the young generation on the building methods and traditional lifestyles, and finally recovery and maintenance of construction crafts.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Drilling oil wells with long laterals in extended reach reservoirs present one of the hardest challenges for drilling companies in the demanding environment especially given their propensity to high downhole vibrations causing many premature tool failures. Managing to attenuate these sources of vibrations can lead to reduced drilling risks and lower section times with less exposure to reservoir hazards. Through a downhole vibrations study using in-bit sensor captured data along with a force simulations model between the drill bit and the formation, lower vibrations are expected with improved drilling efficiency. Understanding the drilling vibrations using a high frequency reading sensor placed in the bit is the key to differentiate the types and excitation sources of dysfunctions downhole in order to quickly and effectively address and reduce them through parameter optimization and drill bit design modification. The 6 1/8" lateral section drilled with a standalone push the bit Rotary Steerable System (RSS) was studied deeply to understand the types of vibrations coming from the bit to attenuate any identified dysfunctions. The high frequency readings in this drilling application demonstrated high stick and slip vibrations typically excited from the increased engagement of Polycrystalline cutters into the formation which led to increased BHA vibrations and lower rates of penetration (ROP) increasing well time and cost. Mitigating this destructive dysfunction caused in part by certain drilling limitations of the conventional round PDC cutter was found to be the key to a higher drilling efficiency with lower vibrations and improved stability extending the life of the bits and the downhole tools. This led to an overall decrease in section drill time and an increase in the consistency of well delivery. Point loading shaped cutters with an adapted drill bit design profile were used in several lateral wells in MENA. The new bit attenuated the overall torsional related dysfunctions in the section by 15% and producing more efficient drilling which resulted in an improved average ROP of the lateral section by 34% as well as a reduction in the rate of downhole tool failures from 11% to less than 7%. Using image recognition technology to assess, analyze and digitize the bit dulls, each cutter on the bit was evaluated, and the new bit design illustrated a 9% improvement in the average dull with a lower requirement for bit repair. The digitally enhanced drill bit design with the point loaded shaped cutters enabled a pre-fracturing of the formation while also benefitting from the shearing mechanism of the shaped PDC cutters enhancing the overall drilling efficiency of the bit. These shaped cutters also added stability to the bit which resulted in reduced overall drilling dysfunctions and extending the BHA life along with an improved section ROP.

Abstract:
Abstract Engineering Asset Management(EAM) is management of engineering assets and it provides guidelines on the effective usage of all the physical engineered assets within the organization. Similarly, Non-Destructive Testing [NDT] is used as a handy tool for integrity assessment of Assets in scheduled maintenance &amp; inspection program. Though Asset Inspection in Oil &amp; Gas Industry were using conventional NDT methods, now ASME, API and others came up with inspection procedures based on fracture mechanics, where each user to ascertain how their tool/regional operating condition deviate from the assumptions herein, then employ their engineering and technical judgment in deciding how and when to employ any part of these standard. Till recent past, there were no regular validation for these procedures being performed as presumed; benchmark for Severity of failure in North Sea offshore and that in MENA Onshore are set as same. Integration of Operations Management System [OMS] based in Asset Inspection with the EAM allows the Asset Owner/Custodian to consistently monitor each Asset, Acquire monitoring / measurement data in common platform using standardized operating procedures, Measure / Analyze Longevity of each Asset and enable the end user to validate their Service Quality Plan and inspection procedures, as per applicable operating limits and risks. The purpose of this paper to emphasize the importance of optimizing the Asset utilization and serviceability to enhance overall efficiency by integrating; (1)EAM software that manages Assets, (2)OMS controlling the process and (3)Asset Inspection Management System[AIMS]. Case study refer our AIMS, a tool to track all Equipment data [Images, OEM/CoC Document, Inspection Reports/Certificates, track analysis of major attributes] through a single channel - Master Asset [Inspection] Register. Uniquely numbered Assets in each category Drilling Tubulars, Hosting &amp;Handling Equipment and/or Lifting Equipment Item is captured in respective Master Asset Inspection Register with all related Equipment data &amp; Inspection records. Inspection records provides all its inspection related history since its commissioning and manufacturing OEM/CoC Documents. Our cloud based AIMS-App's compliance to API Q2, ISO9001:2015 and ISO17020:2012 ensures its certifying requirements to, (1)relevant Industry standard and bench mark (2)Competence of Inspection Personnel and (3)Compliance of Measuring Devices &amp; Equipment. In last two years [2016-2018] by ensuring Acceptance Benchmark only, more than 70% reduction in premature failure [Crack in Thread Connection; where 50% of those are potential NPT cases] in drilling Tools achieved. Our App provide the user to analyze Inspection data. The trend analysis of tools helps in its planning and utilization plus the data can be directly input to modify Service Quality Plan to optimizing the asset utilization &amp; serviceability. The above are some of the immediate befit to Oil Company and Drilling Contractor by AIMS. This paper also discusses one more dimension of it, Reliability in Service Quality. As this AIMS Tool is synchronized with our, (1)EAM software that manages company's all assets and resources, and (2)OMS controlling the process, the integration of all three increase the overall efficiency of the service and results in profitability of a business.
