Balancing natural resource protection and urban development is of concern to researchers, planners and citizens who are aware of the environmental, social and economic impacts of urban land use. Land-use change models can assist in finding this balance. An objective of this research was to build a better model of land-use change by integrating quantitative and qualitative techniques. A modellin...

This research paper presents a compendium of the geotechnical sub-soil data profiling and zoning of the major urban settlements of Peshawar using Geographic Information System. Significant geotechnical properties of the under study area soils i.e., Zone 5 & 6 in Peshawar were assessed through one hundred and three different standard penetration test reports up to the depth of 1 m and 3 m. The q...

Introduction: QUE 94201 (QUE) is a basaltic shergottite containing subequal amounts of pyroxene and plagioclase, the latter having been converted to maskelynite by shock (Fig. 1) [e.g., 1-3]. Pyroxene occurs as elongate subhedral to euhedral grains up to several mm in length. It has extensive and complex zoning (Fig 1). Typical grains have Mg-rich pigeonite cores mantled by Mg-rich augite, whic...

Previous studies suggest that management intensity zoning systems, such as the triad approach, could allow Canada’s forest industry to maintain or increase timber harvest levels while simultaneously reducing its environmental impact. In most such studies, the zones are exogenously specified. In this study, we use a linear programming model to endogenously allocate forest land to management inte...

In this paper, artificial neural networks (ANN) are proposed to classify and establish zoning faults (single-phase, bi-phase and tri-phase short circuits) in primary distribution systems. The proposed classification and zoning models are oriented toward the stochastic tracking of failures via emergency brigades. This work, instead of training a big ANN model, proposes to decompose the problem i...

The idea of using law to change the built environment in ways that reduce opportunities to commit crimes has a long history. Unfortunately, this idea has received relatively little attention in the legal academy and only limited rigorous empirical scrutiny. In this Article, we review the considerable literature on the relationship between zoning, the built environment, and crime. We then report...

This research aims to describe and analyze the implementation of zoning system policies at 10th State Senior High School Surabaya Methods this is using a qualitative approach with case study design collecting data interviews, observations documentation. Data analysis techniques in use interactive models that have three components, namely reduction, presentation conclusion. The results obtained ...

China is facing ecological and environmental challenges as its urban growth rate continues to rise, and zoning protected ecological areas is recognized as an effective response measure. Zoning inherently involves both site attributes and aggregation attributes, and the combination of mathematical models and heuristic algorithms have proven advantageous. In this article, an improved artificial b...

Rayleigh distillation models are developed to describe theoretical growth zoning of Lu, Hf, Rb, Sr, Sm, and Nd in typical garnet crystals from metapelites and metabasites. Effects of diffusion-limited transport within the matrix and intracrystalline diffusion are also considered qualitatively. Theoretical zoning profiles show strong depletions of Lu in garnet rims compared to cores, but virtual...

Education is one of the important components to build Human Resources. This research was conducted describe problems New Student Admission (PPDB) policy for SMA Zoning system with age selection in DKI Jakarta Province. October 2020. focuses on students who take part PPDB 2020, especially those are domiciled Jakarta. study used qualitative methods. However, due current COVID-19 pandemic, not car...
