Large-scale events such as COVID-19 show that there are situations that can lead to huge stress on health infrastructuresystems (HIS). The pandemic reveals that it is very difficult to protect HIS from all kinds of possible hazards. Considerthe trend of these types of viruses, such as N1H1, SARS and Ebola. These types of hazards could be more frequentand extreme in the future....

Buried military munitions, such as bombs, artillery projectiles, rockets and landmines can present serious safety hazards. Geophysical investigations are often used to detect such munitions so that they can be safely recovered and destroyed. However, different geophysical methods each have particular capabilities and limitations. Magnetometers and gradiometers are well suited to detecting ferro...

We present a novel methodology for performing experiments with subsurface structural models using a set of flexible and extensible Python modules. We utilize the ability of kinematic modelling techniques to describe major deformational, tectonic, and magmatic events at low computational cost to develop experiments testing the interactions between multiple kinematic events, effect of uncertainty...

although the history of hazard recognition goes back to years ago, and even some techniques were invented to predict it, hazard studies are new in the current knowledge. the concept of hazard and risk will be defined when the events show two special properties: first, they happen unexpectedly, and second, their occurrence cause harm to us. the general state of the earth should be considered amo...

Liechtenstein has faced an increasing number of natural hazards over recent decades: debris flows, slides, snow avalanches and floods repeatedly endanger the local infrastructure. Geomorphological field mapping and geoelectrical profiling was used to assess hazards near Malbun, a village potentially endangered by landslides, and especially debris flows. The area is located on the tectonic conta...

the study area covers the northern part of the baft geological map (scale of 1:100 000 ). several porphyry and vein-type mineralization are reported from this area. a topic that is discussed in the mineral exploration community is the use of remote sensing and airborne geophysics for porphyry type mineralization. which one is more reliable and efficient in hydrothermal alteration mapping? airbo...
