SEISMICITY STUDIES IN INDIA

Historical and future seismicity near Jaitapur, India

Although India has a long written record, the shaking intensity of few damaging earthquakes that occurred before AD 1800, can be quantified. Since reliable estimates of future shaking near planned nuclear power plants depend on the extrapolation of historical earthquake data spanning many centuries, estimates of seismic risk to the planned Jaitapur nuclear power plant assessed from a short data...

Terrestrial background radiation studies in South Konkan, Maharashtra, India

Background: The natural radionuclides are always present in soil and care needs to be taken to minimize the radiation dose to humans. These radionuclides are mostly gamma ray emitting radionuclides which contribute to the radiation dose in long term behavior of radionuclides in soil. Health hazards associated with natural radioactivity are of great concern and it is necessary to assess risk due...

Autopsy Studies in India

ترجمه بخشی از کتاب "critical readings in translation studies"

چکیده در دنیای پیچیده ی امروز، تغییرات زیادی در زندگی بشری در حال وقوع اند و شاهد رقابت های بسیار فشرده ی جوامع در دستیابی به فناوری برتر و قدرت بیشترهستیم. به نظر می رسد که فرد وجامعه مجبورند به طریقی در وضعیت خویش دگرگونی ایجاد کنند تا از قافله ی علم، فناوری، و پیشرفت عقب نمانند. رشته مطالعات ترجمه نیز از این قاعده مستثنا نیست. علی رغم وسعت روز افزون پژوهش در این حوزه و میان رشته ای بودن مطال...
