and provides an overview of various methods used for wildfire risk assessment. Finally, the article proposes several prospects for future research on wildfire spread: strengthening the dynamic monitoring of wildfires and utilizing comprehensive data from multiple sources, further exploring the differential ...
The scales and categories used may, of course, vary from one organization to another. Military Standard Method The Department of Defense, in Procedures for Performing a Failure Mode, Effects, and Criticality Analysis [5] set forward a technique for ranking potential failure modes that is often ...
The impacts of wind storms in all categories are accurately evaluated through a Sequential Monte Carlo method enhanced by a temporal wind storm sampling strategy. Extensive studies for the selected typical distribution system indicate that our models and methods effectively reveal the hazardous effects ...
For a better understanding of risk management, in general, we list its four major stages as described by Ian Sommerville in his 8th edition of Software Engineering . Risk identification: The development team lists possible risks in the categories of project, product, and business. Risk analysis:...
Some studies have opted for splitting the whole system into main categories: solely based on determination, probability and a combination of the two. These methods comprise an assessment of the product, in our case water as a commodity, the equipment used in the system and the count and ...
Based on the three dimensions of government, community, and individual, in the present research, indicators were selected from five categories: level of scientific capability and education, financial support, early-warning capability, flood control construction, and medical security, to reflect the ...
One of the first actions to be taken among all stakeholders is to decide which landuse is required for the site, as this will determine the required data collection and testing. Many land-uses may be defined, but generally the four following overall categories of land-use classes are used:...
Binkinet al.39documented the tendency for children born larger to remain larger and children born smaller to remain smaller from birth to 5 years old. More recently, the strong tendency to track in weight categories (that is, normal weight, overweight, obese) between adolescence and adulthood wa...
including 14 size categories of lipoprotein particles ranging from extra small (XS) high density lipoprotein (HDL) to extra-extra-large (XXL) very low density lipoprotein (VLDL). For each lipoprotein category, measures are available of total cholesterol, triglycerides, phospholipids, and cholesterol ...
For example, over our 2003–2017 study period, heat associates with the largest number of weather fatalities compared to other weather-related categories. Heat fatalities are also 3.4 times the number of cold fatalities (1532 v. 446) for the same period (NOAA, 2019). Relatedly, we access ...
