Considering the more frequently events (volcanic eruptions, explosions, chemical contaminations etc.) which occur in nature, villages and industrial towns, the paper presents simple solutions and mechanical devices that allow the use of aeration function within habitable places for life protection and human health. These devices were the objective of some research studies that led to the determ...

One significant challenge the Royal Netherlands Navy is facing is how to increase the ship's response capabilities to calamities. In our view, self-configuring distributed control networks are required to reach this goal. TNO-FEL, in cooperation with the Royal Netherlands Navy researches such an automated robust ship control system. The researched system consists of autonomous control clusters ...

How Markets Fail, by John Cassidy, is another in a run of books that feed off the corpse of neoliberalism. It is inspired by events pertaining to the current financial crisis. But this book is not just about finance, it also provides a rough overview of trends in the field of economics before concentrating on the theory of finance and on the current financial crisis. The book is divided into th...

The exponential increase in carbon-dioxide resulting Global Warming would make the planet earth to become inhabitable in many parts of the world with ensuing mass starvation. The rise of digital technology all over the world fundamentally have changed the lives of humans. The emerging technology of the Internet of Things, IoT, machine learning, data mining, biotechnology, biometric, and deep le...

Dear Friends The aftermath of one of the most devastating post earthquake-tsunamis in the history of mankind, the March 2011 post-earthquake-tsunami-hit nuclear accident in Fukushima, Japan, has brought to fore several questions throughout the world on the safety of nuclearinstallations. Such Calamities, which are far beyond our comprehension, has left all nations with such installations and th...

The objectives of the study were to estimate costs and margins, seasonal price variation and to test market integration of egg. Primary and secondary data were used for this study. The higher marketing cost was incurred by aratdars and the lowest by retailer. On the other hand, retailers earned the highest net marketing margins. Analysis of market integration shows that egg market in Bangladesh...

When I request a memory from 2012 to dairy farmers, almost unanimously they respond “drought stress.” According to the US Department of Agriculture (USDA, 2013), the spring and summer drought of 2012 will be remembered as one of the “worst agricultural calamities” in the United States (USDA, 2013). The drought of 2012 reduced the national corn grain and silage yields by 16.2 and 16.3%, respecti...

This paper describes the development of highly accurate adaptive discontinuous Galerkin schemes for the solution of the equations arising from a thin layer type model of debris flows. Such flows have wide applicability in the analysis of avalanches induced by many natural calamities, e.g. volcanoes, earthquakes, etc. These schemes are coupled with special parallel solution methodologies to prod...

LEO satellite networks play a very important role in broadcasting Internet and connecting remote places at the time of natural calamities. Routing plays a very important role in faster data transfer by taking shortest path. LEO satellite networks are the preferred choice due to less propagation delay and packet loss as compared to GEO satellite network. The multimedia applications and live tran...
