In addition to overall uplift of the Qiabuqia region during Late Cenozoic, three deformation stages can be identified in northeastern Qinghai–Tibet Plateau. Specifically, these were recognized areas east Gonghe Basin that surrounds Waliguan Mountain and include: 1) Miocene Pliocene deformation—dominated by thrust napping with dextral strike-slipping; 2) Early Pleistocene late middle period defo...

‘Non sibi sed omnibus’. Not for one but for all. This is the overriding principle in the mind of all doctors while practising their vocation. The care and welfare of patients are the primary considerations of the medical profession. Seldom do you see a doctor who prioritizes his interests before those of his patients. If patient care is the issue, he will disregard any amount of inconvenience c...

For the more than 300 million people who suffer migraines, the excruciating, pulsating pain that characterizes these debilitating headaches needs no description. For those who do not, the closest analogous experience might be severe altitude sickness: nausea, acute sensitivity to light, and searing, bedconfining headache. “That no one dies of migraine seems, to someone deep into an attack, an a...

Aircraft repeatedly prove that birds and aircraft cannot occupy the same airspace at the same time. In an average year about 3000 birdstrikes cause 50-80 million US dollars in damage to USAF aircraft. To the worldwide aviation fleet this problem is estimated to cost more than three billion US dollars per year. Factors for consideration in establishing birdstrike resistance requirements, and in ...

The Labour Relations Act (South Africa, 1991) made provision for protected strike action by employees, subject to certain conditions, procedures and negotiated agreements. This led to the removal of the strike clause in the Nursing Act (South Africa, 1992). The labour rights of all citizens are entrenched in the Constitution of the country (South Africa, 1996). Participation in strike action by...

Reporting of wildlife strikes with civil aircraft in the USA is voluntary but strongly encouraged by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) through Advisory Circulars and FAA publications. The National Wildlife Strike Database contained 59,196 strike reports for civil aircraft, 1990-2004. An initial analysis of independent strike data from an eastern USA airport in 1994 indicated that less t...

[1] We perform numerical modeling to investigate the mechanisms leading to the postcollisional tectonic evolution of the Alps. We model the lithospheric deformation as a viscous thin sheet with vertically averaged rheology and coupled with surface mass transport. The applied kinematic boundary conditions simulate the convergence between the Adria indenter and the European foreland during the la...

Coal gangue slurry filling is an important technical means for harmless and large-scale disposal of under low-interference conditions, one the most ways to achieve green mining, which in line with national concept development. This paper systematically expounds background scientific connotations birth filling, clarifies key technology process principles constructs lag distance optimization meth...
