abstract the concept of armouring is used to discuss the coarse surface layer in rivers. selective erosion in an alluvial channel reach for which there is no upstream sediment supply can lead to formation of a layer coarser than the under laying material. this phenomenon inhibits sediment transport from the reach.numerical modeling of armouring river bed, provides an approach to simulation of t...

determining landslide size could be a difficult and expensive task. in this research, size parameters of 142 landslides recognized in tajan river basin, northern iran, have been assessed. the dataset was prepared through the extensive field surveys and using the satellite imagery available via google earth. dependence between landslides area (a-m2), volume (v-m3), and depth (d-m) was appointed ...

Consider a weak client that wishes to delegate computation to an untrusted server and be able to succinctly verify the correctness of the result. We present protocols in two relaxed variants of this problem. We first consider a model where the client delegates the computation to two or more servers, and is guaranteed to output the correct answer as long as even a single server is honest. In thi...

We have been invited to a wedding by Ken Wilber. This ceremony is not to be an inconsequential affair, but rather resembles a Royal Wedding with all its pomp and circumstance. The marriage, it has been announced, will result in the unification of two previously combative kingdoms into one domain, a cause for much rejoicing. Yet as the guests assemble and the ceremony begins, I find myselffilled...
