Résumé :

Introduction: The aim of this study was to explore the experience of people who hear voices and how the support offered to them affects coping, resilience and recovery. Individual factors such as coping, resilience, belief systems and current service provisions are discussed within the developing context of the mental health system and wider society. Method: Seven people who hear voices were recruited from a local hearing voices group and interviewed using a semi-structured interview. Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis was used to analyse the transcripts. Results: Six key themes emerged

Résumé :

Severe recovery deficits after post-disaster interventions have become the landscape seen globally. Humanitarian operations have struggled to find coherence between relief and recovery activities, which has resulted in a perceived operational gap between relief, recovery and development. This current dynamic has caused significant deficiencies within humanitarian programming, such as weak strategy, a lack of transition mechanisms, exit plans and effective recovery. A situation that stems from the current paradigm the humanitarian system operates under and the framework that has evolved around

During the last years, there has been an increase in the number and intensity of disturbances, and their consequences related with global change, which have corroborated the already forecasted scenarios. One example are wildfires, which are expected to increase both in intensity and extension in the near future. However, although the extensive research carried out to understand wildfire impacts, there is still a lack of knowledge regarding its consequences on freshwater temporary ponds. These temporary habitats constitute small biodiversity reservoirs, holding singular and iconic fauna. Nowada

Résumé :

Background Injury mortality rates have declined in many countries largely because of the development of sophisticated Trauma and injury prevention systems and improved patient care. However the morbidity following severe traumatic physical injury is increasingly recognized as an important public health matter. Little is known about injury recovery patterns and associated causes once patients are discharged home to their communities. Here, prevention activities are targeted at the secondary and tertiary levels in community settings, aiming to reduce or eliminate impairment and disability, minim

Résumé :

Globally seagrasses have been declining at approximately 7% annually since 1990, compromising their resilience and ecological function. Recovery from disturbance is a key component of any ecosystem’s resilience. A key mechanism of ecosystem recovery following large-scale disturbance is succession. Ecological succession refers to temporal changes in community composition, these transitions in community composition during succession are seen to be moving towards a distinct end point referred to as the climax community or, in ecological resilience language, the stable state. Stages can be identif

Résumé :

The vulnerability of complex networks to unexpected disruptive events could be reduced by increasing network resilience through the efficient recovery of the damaged network. To find the most efficient recovery strategy among the existing variety of strategies, a resilience-based framework was proposed and implemented for both localized attacks and cascading failures. For localized attacks, preferential recovery based on nodal weights (PRNW), periphery recovery (PR) and localized recovery (LR) were assessed. Additionally, probability-based recovery (RS1) and recovery of neighboring or boundary

Résumé :

Facing the death of a loved one is often a traumatic experience; when the deceased is one's own child, the loss may be the most stressful event of one's life. There has been very little research into the phenomenon of being a bereaved parent. This study is a phenomenological investigation into the lived experience of being a bereaved parent and whether resilience or recovery plays a role in how parents move through and eventually past such a loss to continue with their own lives. Previous research has indicated that adjustment to traumatic experiences can take multiple pathways or trajectories

Disruptions can cause projects to fail. Within the project management literature, approaches to managing disruptions consist of uncertainty, risk, opportunity, change, and crisis management. These approaches focus on developing strategies to manage perceived threats and also work towards predicting risk, therefore, reducing vulnerability. This vulnerability-reduction only focus is limiting because it takes the focus away from the development of a general capacity for readiness and for responding to uncertain situations.

<p> Nationwide process heating in the manufacturing sector accounts for 7,815 trillion BTU of energy use annually; this is roughly one-third of the sector's total energy consumption [Energetics Incorporated, 2014].

These fuel-fired process heating applications are prime opportunities for heat recovery projects capable of saving energy and, consequently, reducing operating costs.

Following a disaster, an organisation’s ability to recover is influenced by its internal capacities, but also by the people, organisations, and places to which it is connected.

To achieve this optimistic goal and to meet the increased demand of biogas, new biogas production facilities needs to be built.

This project was a step forward in developing the scientific basis for a methodology to assess the resilience of water supply systems under the impacts of climate change.

The approach developed can be applied to any generic water supply system.

Résumé :

Tropical forests have existed for up to one hundred million years, and today provide many ecosystem services vital for human well-being. They also harbour great biodiversity, which, in addition to its intrinsic value, plays a key role in the functioning of these ecosystems. Despite their local to global significance, there are still many knowledge gaps concerning the dynamic processes that govern the functioning of tropical forests. Rapid rates of deforestation and landscape conversion, predominantly for logging and industrial agriculture, are limiting the time and opportunity available to col

Résumé :

This study examines the phenomenon of student resiliency as it relates to Nunez Community College students who returned to attend school in the community of St. Bernard Parish following Hurricane Katrina. Nunez Community College is located in Chalmette, Louisiana, fifteen miles east of the City of New Orleans. The community is adjacent to the Lower Ninth Ward. This study seeks to answer the questions of why the students returned to a disaster-stricken area to continue their studies and how the students coped in the aftermath. There is a significant gap in the literature on post-disaster resili

Texte intégral

Résumé :

<p> As reuse of municipal water resource recovery facility (WRRF) effluent becomes vital to augment diminishing fresh drinking water resources, concern exists that conventional barriers may prove deficient and the upcycling of contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) could prove harmful to human health and aquatic species if more effective and robust treatment barriers are not in place. </p><p> There are no federal Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA) regulations in place specifically for direct potable reuse (DPR) of WRRF effluent. Out of necessity, some states are developing their own DPR reuse r

Texte intégral

Résumé :

This degree project investigates the technical and economic possibility of a heat recovery system on Hovdestalund crematorium. The crematorium will have a solution that allows the facility to become both a producer and consumer to the district heating network. This work became relevant because the Swedish church is going to expand Hovdestalund with additional ovens and therefore energy efficiency is in their sight. With the help of Mälarenergi, a business model to be connected to the district heating network is created for Hovdestalund. The project will go through how to handle the flue gases,

Texte intégral

Résumé :

At the global level, a noticeable rise has been observed in the adverse impact of an increasing number of hazards, in particular floods, on society. This condition has brought into greater focus the issues of vulnerability, environmental justice and resilience in the recovery of community groups. In Mauritius, economic development, growth in population and intensive land use have resulted in greater human use-environment interaction with accompanying increase in flood conditions and the vulnerability of inhabitants exposed to flood risk. Traditional top-down hazard risk reduction strategies ha
