Mitigation provides value to the American people by creating safer communities and reducing loss of life and property. By collaborating with local communities and States, FEMA's mitigation efforts and tools can continue to break the cycle of flood-disaster damage.From Flood Loss to FloodSmart How ...
In this study, an analytical model of the Yonebukuro drainage pumping station basin in Osaki City, Miyagi Pref, was constructed to evaluate the flood mitigation effects of Smart Paddy Field Dam, and inundation simulations were conducted with the conventional and smart paddy field dams under multipl...
In Indonesia, the smart city component is narrowed down to six aspects: (1) Smart governance, (2) Smart economy, (3) Smart mobility, (4) Smart people, (5) Smart environment, and (6) Smart living (Bappenas, 2015). A smart city is a governance concept that combines two components, har...
Amine-surfactant can be converted to be cationic surfactant in water solution saturated with CO2, which can enhance their foaming ability and foam stability, and the foaming ability can be switched off or on by CO2 or replacing with N2 with heating, so the amine-surfactants have great potential...
of industrial land uses (Gallagher, Pechmann, Bogden, Grabosky, & Weis,2008). It can be extremely harmful to human health when such contaminants are directly discharged to the environment and this discharge area is expanded during flood events. While Zinc is an essential component of the human...
(noted as VGG-16 Model, trained on ImageNet dataset) to help train a convolutional neural network (CNN) to predict the structural component type, detect the type of damage and to predict the severity level of the damage. This example demonstrates the use of transfer learning to improve ...
It can make abstract decisions, allowing us to govern any network component via a centralized administration tool. To avert catastrophes, we want to build a vertical SDN-based multi-level architecture with two controllers that are connect as parents and children. It allows smart homes to make ...
One prominent component of self-help guidance all the online advisors tout is time utilization. They remind us we are always running out of time every day in our life which we cannot get back. Most recommend we hit the ground running and need to own the morning to establish the standard ...
There are techniques that propose an attack response policy as a defensive strategy when an attack on the system has been identified. This response policy may involve individual steps, such as discarding traffic and component isolation, or a general process with multiple steps, such as system recon...
Designed for low maintenance, it can be delivered on a standalone basis or as a component part of a complete switch- gear bay. It is also more environmentally friendly than its predecessor, in terms of the CO2 emissions and material used for production and insulation. 01 The pilot DCB-...
