Abstract:
This paper uses concepts from socio-narrative theory, particularly the notions of ‘narrator’ and ‘temporary narrator’, and a revised typology of narrative to examine how eyewitness accounts of the Beslan hostage-taking were incorporated into some of the news narratives constructed in response to the event. Using online articles published in both Russian and English by three different websites, the study considers the few eyewitnesses who are selected to narrate, and ways in which each website controls the sometimes contradictory, multivalent narratives of its eyewitnesses so that they reinforce, rather than challenge or undermine, its overall narrative position. It also considers the impact of translation on these processes and concludes that in translation, the contribution of these eyewitness accounts is further diminished and even removed altogether.

Abstract:
False nutrition-related information poses a significant threat to public health. The increasing use of social media platforms as sources of knowledge introduces the need to investigate their preciseness. To investigate the proportion of incorrect nutrition-related online information posted in Arabic by the most followed Twitter accounts. A specific search strategy was conducted on Twitter to locate the most relevant sources of nutritional knowledge. Tweets were collected over one month and classified according to their subjects, popularity, and specialty, as well as the nationality of tweeters. Subsequently, the tweets were reviewed by a nutrition consultant and labeled as “true” or “false” based on their content. A total of 509 tweets posted by 33 different accounts were identified (38.3% of unknown specialty, 44.8% Saudi, and 24.8% with 100,000–200,000 followers). Of these, 183 tweets (36.0%) were false. Tweets published by accounts with a greater number of followers (less than 100,000) were significantly more precise than those with fewer followers (P = 0.001). Saudi and medical tweeters as well as those of unknown identities posted significantly higher proportions of correct tweets than other nationalities and nutritionist tweeters (P = 0.002 and P = 0.001, respectively). Tweets about allergy, anemia, maternal health, and diabetes were more accurate that those about orthopedics and obesity (P = 0.011). About one-third of posted tweets were incorrect and the role of dietitians was negligible. Targeted intervention programs with the aid of personal and institutional nutrition accounts are warranted on all social media platforms to protect individuals/patients.

Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to review the 16 published non-student Recovery Heroes and Remarkable Lives accounts published in Mental Health and Social Inclusion, using the connection, hope, identity, meaning and empowerment (CHIME) framework. Design/methodology/approach All 16 accounts were rated independently by four researchers and evaluated in terms of whether each account met the five criteria for the CHIME model. Findings All accounts met the criteria for the CHIME model, with the exception of one, which still met four of the five criteria. Evidence was presented which suggests that the model can be extended to creativity, connectedness, hope, identity, meaning and empowerment (C-CHIME), to incorporate creativity. Research limitations/implications While a certain level of subjectivity is required in deciding how each account meets the CHIME criteria, there were high levels of inter-rater reliability within the research team. Creativity had a central place in all the accounts. Practical implications The revised C-CHIME model can be used by practitioners to examine accounts of recovery in a more focussed manner and may also help in devising recovery action plans. Social implications The recovery model privileges both professional and lived experience perspectives on recovery. The current review highlights how much we can benefit from the wisdom contained in first person accounts. Originality/value This review adds to the existing literature and highlights the importance of creativity for mental health recovery.

Abstract:
This article addresses the issue of the loss of identity a woman experiences when she becomes a widow. Based on an analysis of published autobiographical accounts of widowhood, it looks at how women express their experience of losing their husbands. It explicates a process of ‘identity foreclosure’ which strips a woman of her identity at every level, and the process by which the authors of these accounts have built new identities. Extensive quoting from the published accounts reveals the richness of these data and provides a feeling for the emotional impact of widowhood that women experience.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis draws inspiration from the emergence of cultural studies as an academic pursuit, in addition to the current renewal of interest in the relationship between literary works and their socio-cultural milieux, to bring together an assortment of textual traces pertaining to the River Plate around the era of Juan Manuel de Rosas, governor of Buenos Aires and de facto dictator of Argentina for most of the period 1829-1852. The main texts analysed range from private documents relating to two Scottish settler families, through accounts published by British citizens with first-hand knowledge of the region (Un inglés, Cinco años en Buenos Aires and Beaumont, Travels in Buenos Ayres and the Adjacent Provinces), to three influential pieces of early Argentinian literature (Echeverria's El matadero, Mármol's Amalia and Sarmiento's Facundo). One justification of this apparently eclectic approach lies in the prominence accorded to the incomer in the thought of liberal Platine intellectuals, a concern evinced in their literary production. The methodology involves examining the representation of certain fundamental topics across this range of written artefacts, observing frequent points of thematic convergence amongst the various texts. In this fashion, I construct an image of the River Plate region around the Rosas period, whilst also appraising the degree to which early British settlers matched the idealized notion of the immigrant present in liberal creole writings. The study is divided into four main chapters, supplemented by an introduction, conclusion and appendix. The first chapter summarizes the historical context of the young Platine republics; the second deals with the themes of society, community and family, the third focuses upon religion; the fourth considers perspectives of politics, dictatorship and civil war. The appendix consists of an unpublished settler autobiography, a remarkable account of the tribulations faced on a daily basis in the developing Argentina.

Abstract:
Internet permet aujourd'hui aux auteurs de se publier en quelques clics sans passer par un professionnel du livre comme cela a été le cas jusqu'à présent. Si autrefois, les auteurs avaient peu de solutions alternatives pour être publiés, mis à part, l'édition à compte d'auteur, souvent très coûteuse, ils disposent aujourd'hui sur le net d'une multitude d'espaces pour s'éditer et voir apparaître leur publication à l'écran en quelques clics. Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP) d'Amazon est une plateforme d'auto-édition qui connaît un véritable succès ; cet espace a bouleversé l'ordre des choses puisque pour une fois des auteurs totalement inconnus, sans aucune expérience dans le domaine de l’écriture grand public et sans aucune prétention littéraire, ont pénétré au sein du monde éditorial en étant repérés sur les réseaux avant d’être édités par ceux qui jusqu'ici avaient gardé pour eux porte close. Notre étude a pour objectif de mieux cerner le phénomène de l’édition alternative qui revient en force sur le net et de voir qui sont ces auteurs qui s’investissent en masse sur KDP, quelles sont leurs motivations et leurs publications. Plus largement, nous voudrions montrer que ces nouvelles formes de publication mettent sur le marché une littérature différente, plus divertissante, à bas prix encore peu présente sur les étals des libraires mais dont le site du géant de Seattle regorge<br>Internet allows authors to publish in a few clicks without passing through the necessary phase of the Publishing House, as it has been the case so far. Previously authors had no alternative but publishing at their own expense, most of the time quite expensive. Thanks to the net, they benefit today from various spaces: Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP), Amazon, is an auto-edition platform that encounters a phenomenal success ; KDP has reshuffled the norm bringing into light totally unknown writers, with no real writing experience nor particular ambition, and made them visible on the net, opening doors of a world that was kept accessible to a few lucky ones before. Our study aims at better understanding the phenomenon of alternative edition that is coming up to force, and to understand who exactly these authors investing in KDP are, their motivations and their publications. More broadly, we aim at demonstrating that these new forms of publications offer different literature, equally entertaining, certainly cheaper, not always present in libraries but easily accessible online

Abstract:
Within the next two decades, depression is predicted to become the leading cause of disease burden in developed countries, and the second leading cause of disease burden globally. There is a relatively large body of research on women’s experiences of depression, but research on men’s depression, and their experiences with depression, has been fragmented. The aim of this dissertation is to contribute to the understanding of depression in men through the triangulation of three diverse sources of data that deal with men’s experiences of depression. These data sources are: existing published research studies, media portrayals, and in-depth interviews with men. Applying a systematic review methodology, the first study explores current knowledge about the factors associated with depressive symptoms in men. These factors include social and demographic factors, occupational factors, health behavioural factors, and psychological or cognitive factors. I discuss the relevance of these findings in relation to diathesis-stress models of depression, and to theories of pathoplasticity which describe an individual’s vulnerability to potential stressors. In the second study, I extend the theory that ‘softer’ masculinities are becoming increasingly valued in modern society, through an investigation of how depressed men are positioned by particular discourses in news media articles. I explore news media portrayals of men’s communication about their depression in relation to theories of stigma and masculinity. The findings of this study highlight the role media can play in reproducing or challenging such stigma. The third and final study addresses the limited research on men’s subjectivities of distress. I add to the body of knowledge about men’s discourses of depression by exploring how men draw on medical understandings of depression and how they talk about the broader social contexts of their experiences. The focus of this study is to explore the understandings of depression experienced by a group of Australian men with high depressive symptoms. This study utlises a thematic analytic framework to provide an overview of men’s subjectivities of depression. The findings of this study provide more depth to knowledge of men’s understandings of depression. This dissertation has several theoretical contributions and implications for clinical practice, public health services, and policy makers. The findings provide health practitioners and the public health sector with comprehensive knowledge about the relevant factors associated with men’s depression. This dissertation also presents an overview of factors discussed by a group of men with depression. This provides an understanding of how men make sense of their condition. The research findings highlight how discourses of men’s depression can work to dispel or reproduce stigma around men’s mental health concerns. These findings are particularly relevant to policy makers for their debate and development of the gender equality in mental health outcomes.<br>Thesis (Ph.D.) -- University of Adelaide, School of Population Health, 2015

Abstract:
AbstractColonialism always rests on a false premise: we will bring our superior culture to a new region. The beings who inhabit the territory may be useful to us, but they certainly can be pushed out of the way. Such was the case in England’s first attempts in North America 400 years ago, and now fictional accounts of colonization in outer space see humans repeating their mistakes. This chapter uses pamphlets, letters, and official documents written in the beginning decades of English colonization in North America. It also draws on two modern science fiction accounts, one from the mid-twentieth century, Harry Martinson’s Aniara, and the other recently published, Charlie Jane Anders’ The City in the Middle of the Night.

Abstract:
Abstract This chapter takes a close look at the mutually constitutive relationship between asylum casebooks and published literature on mental disease. It follows melancholia as it travelled back and forth between the casebook and the textbook, emerging as an increasingly coherent diagnosis. While medical literature presented melancholia in remarkably standardised terms toward the end of the century, by comparing published accounts with asylum journal notes from major county asylums situated in different parts of the country, this chapter shows how a vast and vastly divergent range of human expressions and experiences were moulded to fit increasingly narrow diagnostic criteria, and brings into focus the conflicts that arise and the negotiations that take place when complex human emotions are labelled and categorised as mental disorders.

Full text
Abstract:
AbstractBetween the 1960s and 1980s, many accounts written in English by people who had been inmates in asylums and psychiatric hospitals were republished, or newly commented-upon, creating a canon of English-speaking historical “mad voices”. Insofar as this canon was limited to those who had been institutionalised, it stretched back to the end of the eighteenth century. From at least the 1830s, changes emerged in the justifications given by the authors for writing and publishing these accounts. Before this time they are predominantly published by those who never accept that they are mad and focus on the injustice of their confinement. By the 1960s, there is an established sense that the authenticity of the madness narrated is a key (although ambivalent) part of the value of publication. This chapter focuses on the “paratextual” elements of the various accounts—principally the “acknowledgements”, “preface” and “foreword”—as writing positioned outside the main story, but central to justifying it. The aim is to bring these different justifications to the fore and to argue that we should maintain distance between accounts that are justified in radically different ways, and contain radically different authorial assumptions about their content and potential value.

Full text
Abstract:
Between the 360s and the late second century BCE, Cyrenaean documents attest the importance of a local board of magistrates: the damiergoi, who were in charge of administering some sacred estates and their revenues to fund sacrifices and provide for other city officials. This board of magistrates published their accounts annually on stone in the city’s agora. The thirty-eight surviving accounts can be divided into four different phases and have proved to be an extremely precious source for the evolution of layout strategies, writing media, abbreviations, and numeral systems viewed in a longue durée perspective. From a close examination, further elements stand out, such as how and to what extent other areas – namely Attica and Ptolemaic Egypt – and their administrative traditions influenced the damiergoi’s accounting practices. Moreover, this re-examination of the damiergoi accounts sheds light on an abbreviation found in the early-third-century-CE papyrus Marmarica (P.Marm.), which has so far been misinterpreted as a siglum for an uncommon unit of measurement: the ((hepta))m(etron scil. keramion). Cyrenaean evidence permits an alternative hypothesis, namely that the liquid measure used here is the centuries-old zm(ireus) – i.e., smireus – which is already attested in the accounts of the damiergoi.

In addition, Tables 5 - 8 have been moved from the main text to Appendix B, at the request of the authors.The original version of the chapter 11 contained an error in Table 2, which also affected Section 3.1 and the Conclusion. The original figure in Table 2 indicated that one community was retweeting from a smaller number of accounts than the other communities.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract The formation of deposits in energy conversion and utilisation processes has long been recognised as deleterious to the efficient and safe operation of those processes. Many of the deposits have a biological component, so that proper control of biofouling is essential. The biocides used for this control are recognised as having a potential negative impact on the environment, and there is therefore pressure to reduce or discontinue their use. The negative impacts of this course of action are not generally considered. Major contributions would come from the increased emissions of greenhouse gases and acid rain precursors from the burning of extra fuel that would be required to maintain the same industrial output. These would be caused principally by the reduction in heat transfer efficiency, particularly in the electricity industry, the requirement for increased pumping power, and the emissions associated with the extraction, production and fabrication of larger or additional capital plant. Estimates of the environmental impact of not using biocides in the energy conversion and utilisation industries are made with the assistance of data previously collected in the study of the costs of biofouling and other deposit forming processes to industry, the recently published Pilot United Kingdom Environmental Accounts, and data published by Eurostat for the European Union.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract In certain regimes of atmospheric corrosion, the corrosion rate is limited not by electrochemical reactions but by the rate of mass transfer of pollutants. In these cases, a mass transfer model that accounts for the transport of pollutants, such as a marine salt aerosol, provides a theoretical and predictive framework for assessing corrosivity severity. Such a model of the transport of a marine aerosol fairly near the ground and well within the planetary boundary layer was developed. The predicted aerosol concentration as a function of distance for 1500 m from a steady source was consistent with published data on steel corrosion and salinity rates near an ocean. Implications from the model regarding objects that are exposed to aerosol-containing wind include: (i) increasing wind speed increases the aerosol deposition rate and therefore the corrosion rate, (ii) objects that are in the lee of prevailing winds from an aerosol source will corrode faster than objects on the windward side of an aerosol source, and (iii) smaller objects can be expected to corrode faster because of a greater capture efficiency of salt aerosols.

Abstract In November 2004 ISO 19840 was published to provide a consistent method for the measurement of coatings applied to structural steel for corrosion prevention. This new standard includes methods for the adjustment of gauges to take account of surface roughness, the designation of inspection areas and the use of acceptance criteria. In this paper ISO 19840 will be compared and contrasted with the content of SSPC-PA 2 in its latest form. The practical use of coating thickness gauges for assessments of coatings to these two standards, including the management of the data generated, will be discussed.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Experimental results on initiation and growth of mesa attack at 100 - 150 °C are presented and compared to previously published results at 80 °C. The risk for mesa attack is reduced at temperatures above 100 °C, and this is caused by improved protectiveness of iron carbonate corrosion films. Experiments have demonstrated that mesa attack can develop during CO2 corrosion of carbon steel by localized corrosion beneath an iron carbonate corrosion film and subsequent removal of the remaining iron carbonate film by flow forces. It is important to take account of the understanding of this mechanism during development of prediction models for localized CO2 corrosion.

Abstract:
Abstract The U.S. Department of Energy has recently announced decarbonization targets for 2030 of 50% to 52% and a net-zero target for 2050. To achieve these goals, the future energy mix will consist of numerous carbon-free sources including existing technologies such as solar, wind, and nuclear energy. In addition to these, emergent technologies such as biofuels and hydrogen fuel will play a key role. A significant amount of work has been undertaken over the last decade to understand the behavior of materials that will be used in the hydrogen economy. For hydrogen to significantly impact decarburization and become widely used by consumers, it will need to be transported from generation sites to end-users. One proposed solution is the utilization of the existing pipeline infrastructure. However, there is still uncertainty on how to safely retrofit and operate pipelines constructed from vintage carbon steels. A tool was developed to estimate remaining life utilizing recently published hydrogen fatigue crack growth rate models published in ASME B31.12 and by Sandia National Labs. At low stress intensity ranges (∆K), below about 5 to 6 MPa-m0.5, these values are at or below in-air crack growth rates. Pressure variations which account for these low ∆K values account for a large percentage of gas pipeline pressure fluctuations. The tool evaluates remaining life based of a pipeline based on the models, anticipated pressure cycles, flaw size, and fracture toughness behavior. A focus of this work was exploring behavior in the low ∆K range by applying different factors of safety to the in-air data (3 to 10 times). The outcome of the effort will not only provide a remaining life estimation, but it will identify gaps in the existing knowledge that can be the focus of future research and industry efforts.

Abstract:
Fake engagement is one of the significant problems in Online Social Networks (OSNs) which is used to increase the popularity of an account in an inorganic manner. The detection of fake engagement is crucial because it leads to loss of money for businesses, wrong audience targeting in advertising, wrong product predictions systems, and unhealthy social network environment. This study is related with the detection of fake and automated accounts which leads to fake engagement on Instagram. Prior to this work, there were no publicly available dataset for fake and automated accounts. For this purpose, two datasets have been published for the detection of fake and automated accounts. For the detection of these accounts, machine learning algorithms like Naive Bayes, Logistic Regression, Support Vector Machines and Neural Networks are applied. Additionally, for the detection of automated accounts, cost sensitive genetic algorithm is proposed to handle the unnatural bias in the dataset. To deal with the unevenness problem in the fake dataset, Smote-nc algorithm is implemented. In this paper investigating various methods used in the existing work for the Instagram fake account detection.

Abstract:
Governments and societies have understood the benefits of transparency and access to information since the 1950s, aiming for greater social participation and even more control over corruption. In Brazil, initiatives such as the Access to Information Act and the Digital Government Act promote transparency. However, the complex language used in sectors of the public sector, especially the judiciary, prevents the consumption of this information by part of the population. In this context, this practical report aims to present a project to facilitate access to and consumption of the preliminary opinions published by the State Court of Accounts (TCEs), through automatic simplifications using Large Language Models (LLMs), especially the GPT-4. The automatically simplified texts contain the main points of the opinion, highlighting monetary values and percentages, with their respective explanations and laws that support the result of the preliminary opinion. The MVP generated is being validated by a state court of accounts for subsequent incorporation into its transparency framework.

Abstract:
Abstract The paper addresses response of subsea components subject to internal intermittent slug flows. The proposed work pursues experiments already published last year (OMAE2020-18620) and focuses on the way to numerically model such complex coupled physics for both rigid spool and steel lazy wave riser. The first part of the paper relies on the coupling approach already presented in OTC-29306 and OMAE2020-18620 mixing (i) Finite Element solver to predict the mechanical behavior of the system and (ii) a Unit Cell solver to recover the intermittent slug flow. It accounts for both (i) the complexity of the slug flow properties at the spool inlet and (ii) their variability along the system. This approach is successfully compared to the experimental (large scale) results already published. This preliminary step validates the ability of the proposed numerical model to recover real-life behavior and underlines some limitations resulting from the Industry Best Practices use. The second part of the paper extends the applicability of the proposed coupling philosophy to a steel lazy wave riser where a classical Flow Assurance software (e.g. Olga) is considered for the characterization of the intermittent flow and then coupled with a mechanical solver. This one-way coupling accounts for the slugging variability along the riser length and consequently exhibits a finer granularity of the mechanical behavior of the riser. This modelling is then compared to the industry best practices to open a discussion on the observed differences.

Abstract:
The 17th edition of the APO Productivity Databook offers in-depth analyses of economic growth and productivity in Asia from 1970 to 2022, with projections extending to 2035. It covers baseline indicators for 31 Asian economies, including 21 APO members, 10 nonmembers, and reference economies such as Australia, the EU, France, Germany, Italy, New Zealand, the UK, and the USA. A detailed productivity account in the APO Productivity Database (APO-PDB) is developed for 21 APO members, four nonmember Asian countries, and the USA, with detailed insights on the roles of capital and labor inputs and total factor productivity in economic growth. The Asia25 economies covered by the APO-PDB accounted for 91% of Asian GDP (in PPP terms) in 2022. Authored by Dr. Koji Nomura (Keio University) and Dr. Mun S. Ho (Harvard University) under the consultancy of Professor W. Erwin Diewert (University of British Columbia), this edition incorporates the latest estimates published through May 2024. Several economies have made significant revisions to their official national accounts, while Bhutan, Saudi Arabia, and the USA published new benchmark-year national accounts in 2023. Using extensive auxiliary information, this edition constructs harmonized retrospective estimates dating back to 1970. The APO Productivity Databook serves as an essential resource for policymakers and researchers, offering harmonized international comparisons over more than half a century to support informed decision-making.

Full text
Abstract:
Most studies of total factor productivity (TFP) and long-term production functions use capital stock time series obtained from ad hoc estimates of the rate of depreciation and the initial capital stock. This paper introduces a methodology that allows the simultaneous econometric estimation of the capital stock, the production function parameters, the rate of depreciation, and the initial capital stock. The proposed methodology, using the underlying cost function to the production function, allows for the incorporation of information about the relative prices of the factors of production and the possibility of having variable depreciation rates over time. The proposed methodology is applied to the case of the Bahamas, Barbados, Jamaica, and Suriname for the period 1989-2019 using national accounts data published by the statistical services of these countries.

Abstract:
Government spending on public works, goods and services in the European Union (EU) accounts for about 14% of the EU’s GDP. Consequently, the EU and its Member States (MS) can make a great impact in accelerating the development and uptake of low-carbon technologies through green public procurement (GPP). This brief is part of a wider project financed by Breakthrough Energy, aiming to understand the divergences in GPP uptake in different EU MS and to identify key barriers to greater adoption and opportunities ahead. Ultimately, the project aims to contribute to greater policy coherence among member states to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, as well as to increase policy support for the design of GPP implementation frameworks and for harmonized GPP target-setting. In 2020, the road transport sector accounted for 23% and 20% of total Estonian and Polish GHG emissions, respectively, while the construction sector represented about 5% and 9% of Estonian and Polish total GHG emissions, respectively. These numbers point to the large mitigation potential that procuring authorities can support by including environmental criteria in procurements. In this brief, we share the results from our desktop research and stakeholder interviews for Estonia and Poland. Results from all cases and additional research will be published in a report later in 2022.

Full text
Abstract:
USDA, Economic Research Service (ERS) publishes annual costs and returns estimates for 12 major agricultural commodities (field crops, livestock, and milk) as part of the agency's Commodity Costs and Returns data series and Milk Cost of Production Estimates data series. Since 1975, commodity costs and returns estimates have been made for these commodities because legislation has mandated their estimation, the estimates help inform policy development, and/or the commodities account for a sizeable share of U.S. agricultural production. The estimates are published biannually at national and regional levels for all commodities and at the State level for milk. Methods used to produce cost and returns estimates are consistent with recommendations made by the American Agricultural Economics Association Task Force on Commodity Costs and Returns in 2000. Special commodity versions of USDA's Agricultural Resource Management Survey and other USDA, National Agricultural Statistics Service data are the primary sources of information for developing cost and returns estimates. Commodity costs and returns data are used for policy and production decisions by a variety of stakeholders including policymakers, consultants, agricultural producers and agribusinesses, university extension personnel, and researchers. This report provides information on the methods and data sources used by USDA to develop its Commodity Costs and Returns estimates.--

Abstract:
This Synthesis Report is a literature review outlining the regulatory, industry, and academic approaches to AI audits. We review 78 articles published in peer-reviewed journals and as preprints, 21 documents from industry associations and standard-setting organizations, and national policy documents and regulations from 20 countries. Based on this review, we identify three key takeaways about the landscape of AI auditing: 1. To accurately assess the potential risks, and impacts of AI systems, we need a trustworthy audit ecosystem with complementary approaches from internal, external, and community auditors. 2. Auditors need better access to data and audit artifacts from the developers and deployers of AI systems. Comprehensive auditability requires documentation and disclosure of an AI system’s model and data components, associated risks and impacts, and easily understandable explanations of its outcomes. 3. Given that the development and use of AI systems impacts communities across the world, audit regimes must account for their global effects. Most existing audits have been conducted in North America, Europe, and other regions of the ‘global north’, with their results typically published in English and focused on effects within these regions. The impacts of AI systems, however, include shifts in social and environmental conditions beyond the immediate development or application contexts of a system.

Full text
Abstract:
We expect there to be locations around a rupture that experience both positive and negative directivity effects more than others. The concept was to develop a simple model of additional mean and standard deviation to add to existing published ground motion prediction equations to account for this. The directivity effect predicted by Chiou and Youngs [2014] using the directivity parameter DPP [Spudich et al. 2013] was selected as the basis for the model. A suite of rupture geometries for strike-slip and reverse ruptures was generated and the mean and standard deviation of the change in the 5% damped pseudo-spectral acceleration at sites out to rupture distances of 70 km was calculated. Models are presented for the change in mean and standard deviation for both strike-slip and reverse ruptures that use only simple parameters as inputs.
