Innovative strategies for high resolution site characterization: application to a flood plain

A high‐resolution global flood hazard model†

Floods are a natural hazard that affect communities worldwide, but to date the vast majority of flood hazard research and mapping has been undertaken by wealthy developed nations. As populations and economies have grown across the developing world, so too has demand from governments, businesses, and NGOs for modeled flood hazard data in these data-scarce regions. We identify six key challenges ...

Implantable Microsystems for High-Resolution Interfacing to the Brain

a new type-ii fuzzy logic based controller for non-linear dynamical systems with application to 3-psp parallel robot

abstract type-ii fuzzy logic has shown its superiority over traditional fuzzy logic when dealing with uncertainty. type-ii fuzzy logic controllers are however newer and more promising approaches that have been recently applied to various fields due to their significant contribution especially when the noise (as an important instance of uncertainty) emerges. during the design of type- i fuz...

Management Strategies For Reduce the Consequences of Flood Hazard with the SWOT Analytical Method (Case Study: Hamedan- Bahar Plain)

   Inadequate productivity and over-capacity of land in many watersheds and plains of the country, has increased flooding potential. Therefore, reducing flood damage with the participation of both policymakers and the public as key stakeholders in decision-making, planning, long-term management and foresight in decisions are unavoidable. In the present study, SWOT analytical method was used to ...

High resolution simulations of a flash flood near Venice

During the MAP D-PHASE (Mesoscale Alpine Programme, Demonstration of Probabilistic Hydrological and Atmospheric Simulation of flood Events in the Alpine region) Operational Period (DOP, 1 June–30 November 2007) the most intense precipitation event observed south of the Alps occurred over the Venice Lagoon. In the early morning of 26 September 2007, a mesoscale convective system formed in an are...
