Title of Thesis: An Interpreter’s Interpretation: Sign Language Interpreters’ View of Musculoskeletal Disorders. Author: William L. Johnson, Master of Science, 2004 Thesis directed by: Michael Feuerstein, PhD, MPH Professor Department of Medical and Clinical Psychology Sign language interpreters are at increased risk for musculoskeletal disorders. The present study used content analysis to obta...

Following the ongoing debate about suitability of short-period sensor for seismic noise measurements at frequencies lower than 1 Hz, in this study we compare recordings from two different seismometers (Güralp CMG-3ESPC and Mark L4C3D) installed side bi side in the GeoForschungsZentrum laboratory. The comparison carried out in terms of Power Spectral Density and coherency analysis shows an excel...

The staggered-grid finite difference (FD) method demands significantly computational capability and is inefficient for seismic wave modelling in 2-D viscoelastic media on a single PC. To improve computation speedup, a graphic processing units (GPUs) accelerated method was proposed, for modern GPUs have now become ubiquitous in desktop computers and offer an excellent cost-toperformance-ratio pa...

Geophysical techniques coupled with the modern computer workstation have not been widely used in environmental geology. The Kansas Geological Survey is investigating the application of the computer workstation in a number of projects underway that involve environmental questions and problems associated with salt dissolution. The computer workstation provides an efficient approach to integrate g...

– Usually only GPR reflection amplitudes are imaged, while data contain far more information. Multi-trace coherency visualisations offer new insights into structures otherwise hardly visible. Image fusing permits the combined display of different attributes (amplitude and coherency).

The Cretaceous shale intervals of Talhar and Sembar Formations – distributed in the Lower Indus Basin Pakistan are organic-rich shales that can act as gas plays. Two-dimensional seismic using synthetic modeling has been carried out Khewari oil field to identify petroleum This work was completed with help eight processed migrated lines. Based on structural interpretation different geological str...

[1] Cross correlation of ambient seismic noise is known to result in time series from which station‐station travel‐time measurements can be made. Part of the reason that these cross‐correlation travel‐time measurements are reliable is that there exists a theoretical framework that quantifies how these travel times depend on the features of the ambient noise. However, corresponding theoretical r...

This paper study the recent seismicity in Earthquake hazard zones in India. A large historical earthquake event catalog to cover the period of 1900-2018, the parameters date, time, latitude, longitude, depth and magnitude has been used to calculating frequency-magnitude distribution (b-value) of seismic hazard zones in India. To convert different magnitude scales into a single moment magnitude ...

Professional interpreters’ visibility in the European context has been widely discussed field of community interpreting, but untrained ad hoc interpreters non-European contexts such as China received little academic attention. By adopting concept “text ownership” proposed by Angelelli (2004a), this study examines Chinese manifestations an authentic medical setting. Based on observations, audio ...
