Leading flood loss estimation models include Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA’s) Hazus, FEMA’s Flood Assessment Structure Tool (FAST), and (U.S.) Hydrologic Engineering Center’s Flood Impact Analysis (HEC-FIA), with each requiring different data input.No research to date has compared the resulting outcomes from such models at a n
In the current context of the COVID-19 pandemic, various forms of digital surveillance have been globally, established.Despite many of these forms of surveillance already existed, now, they have increased their range and have been legitimized and imposed daily.The logic of surveillance has allowed the universalization of surveillance, denunciation
Arch-chord-coupled antisliding structure is a new type of structure composed of multiple small-diameter piles for strengthening small- and medium-sized landslides, especially suitable for the Ashtrays reinforcement of slopes that are sensitive to deformation.In order to further explore the mechanical properties of the antisliding structure, physica
In South Africa, construction projects still experience non- conformance to quality requirements as well as cost and schedule overruns to the detriment of clients.For project success to be attained, conformance to these parameters is the minimum expectation in the face of other considerations related to client satisfaction.Thus, through the use of
