Studies on the impacts of hurricanes, tropical storms, and tornados indicate that poor communities of colour suffer disproportionately in human death and injury.(2) Few quantitative studies have been conducted on the degree to which flood events affect socially vulnerable populations. We address this research void by analysing 832 countywide flood events in Texas from 1997-2001. Specifically, w...
Flooding is responsible for substantial loss of life and economy. Flood mapping, the process of distinguishing flooded areas from non-flooded areas during and after a disaster, can be very useful in guiding first response resources in a disaster situation, and in assessing flood risk in future disaster scenarios. This paper involves the use of image segmentation methods and human guidance to pr...
In this article, a study of employee’s opinion to the factors that affect to the flood preventive and the corrective action plan in an electronic industry at the Sharp Manufacturing (Thailand) Co., Ltd. has been investigated. The surveys data of 175 workers and supervisors have, however, been selected for data analysis. The results is shown that the employees emphasize about the needs in a subs...
Damage assessments of natural hazards supply crucial information to decision support and policy development in the fields of natural hazard management and adaptation planning to climate change. Specifically, the estimation of economic flood damage is gaining greater importance as flood risk management is becoming the dominant approach of flood control policies throughout Europe. This paper revi...
It has long been recognized that flood protection provided by levees is a double-edged sword. On one hand, levee systems have provided flood protection. On the other hand, given enough time levees either will be overtopped or will fail—leading to severe flood impacts on an unsuspecting population. Unlike a natural flood, levee failure flooding is often rapid, forceful, extremely damaging, and o...
Identifying and determining the flood potential and prioritizing of the flood discharge in the sub-basins is very important in terms of watershed management, flood control and watershed management projects. In many watersheds, it is difficult to investigate and determine the impact of each of the factors and even upstream sub-basins on creating an outlet flood, especially in the sub-basins w...
The ECG elimination is a vital tool for physiologist in detecting and classifying arrhythmia among human beings. One of the major challenges in ECG analysis is the delineation of ECG segments, that is P and T waves detection and delineation of an ECG waveform. Here we presents a new approach to address this problem, where delineation and detection can be done simultaneously. The proposed method...
BACKGROUND Consistent delineation of patient anatomy becomes increasingly important with the growing use of highly conformal and adaptive radiotherapy techniques. This study investigates the magnitude and 3D localization of interobserver variability of organs at risk (OARs) in the head and neck area with application of delineation guidelines, to establish measures to reduce current redundant va...
Floods have profound impacts on populations worldwide in terms of both loss of life and property. A global inventory of floods is an important tool for quantifying the spatial and temporal distribution of floods and for evaluating global flood prediction models. Several global hazard inventories currently exist; however, their utility for spatiotemporal analysis of global floods is limited. The...
A modified flash flood severity assessment is presented, based on scoring a set of factors according to their potential for generating extreme catchment-scale flooding. Improvements are made to the index through incorporation of parameter uncertainties, managing data absence, and clearer graphical communication. The motive for proposing these changes is to better inform flood managers during th...
