Unravelling the Dynamics of Landslide Occurrences and Joint Plane Influences in the Lesser-Himalayan Terrain: A Case Study of Ramban-Gul Road
Creators: name: IME Pub
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: ABSTRACT: In the context of research focused on the structurally anisotropic Sub-Himalayan regions, the frequency of landslides or slope failures exhibits significant variation from one location to another. This variability can be attributed to underlying structural features and neotectonic activities. A notable case study of Ramban-Gul Road lies within the Jammu Himalaya, where a series of impactful landslides have occurred in recent times. Noteworthy among these are ongoing events like the Khuni Nala Rock-fall, Dhamkund Landslide, and Kora Pani Landslide. The manifestation of landslide activities in the Jammu Himalaya, including processes like falling, toppling, slumping, debris flow, debris slide, and land creeping, predominantly occurs in regions characterized by Low[1]hills exhibiting moderate to steep slopes. Within this geographical setting, the occurrence of landslide events is influenced by a range of intrinsic and extrinsic factors. These factors encompass geomorphological attributes, morphometric characteristics, lithological composition, structural arrangements, tectonic dynamics, and joint conditions. The interaction of these factors operates in conjunction with slope gradients, a relationship highlighted by previous studies. In the examined transect of the study area, numerous instances of landslides have been observed. However, a majority of these occurrences have undergone treatment interventions. Curiously, the treatment approach employed across the area remains relatively uniform, regardless of the diverse lithological compositions and varying overburden loads present in different areas. As part of this research endeavour, a subset of nine particularly unstable slopes from the identified landslide sites was selected for in-depth analysis. This analysis seeks to elucidate the specific role played by joint planes in the initiation and progression of these landslides. The ensuing article presents a comprehensive exploration of the details pertaining to these selected landslides, shedding light on the intricate relationships between joint plane characteristics and landslide occurrences.

description: In the last 25 years, a vast empirical literature has seriously chal-
lenged many assumptions on which the standard microeconomic approach
is based. Inspired by this evidence, behavioural economics suggests that a
research program that integrates the economic, psychological and neuro-
scientific literature can provide a theory of human decision-making with
stronger descriptive, predictive and normative power. This interdisci-
plinary approach does not necessarily imply abandoning the neoclassical
modelling tools and losing analytical tractability. As an example, the evo-
lution of the economic theory on intertemporal choice is presented, show-
ing that some standard economic assumptions can be viewed as special
cases in which self-control and dynamic consistency are always guaranteed.

description: This report begins with a brief overview of the methods involved in the study. This is followed by a description of all adult deaths in Vancouver 1990-93, looking at factors such as age/sex distribution and causes of death. Much of the remainder of the report focuses on deaths from cancer or AIDS, and data arc presented on contacts of these patients with the then existing palliative care system. Simplifying assumptions and caveats must be kept in mind. Palliative care is provided by a number of different service providers. In this particular study, it was not possible to collect data on the full range of encounters that take place between a terminally ill patient and the health care system (e.g. family physicians who provide elements of palliative care in their general practice). One of the major issues around death and dying relates to place of death, i.e. home vs hospital. This report presents data on place of death for the 1990-93 period. There is some discussion as to the assumptions regarding palliative care as primarily applicable to cancer/HIV patients. Finally, drawing upon the results of the data analysis, the report offers some recommendations.

description: We study the strategic interaction between two firms competing in quantites
which decide whether exporting into each other market. The product is
homogeneous and production entails constant returns to scale. Scope effects
are present. By dealing with two types of trade costs, namely per unit and ad
valorem trade costs, we characterize the set of Nash equilibria showing that one
way trade is a possible outcome of the trade game. In particular, despite the
assumption on symmetry between firms, unilateral trade arises provided trade
costs are sufficiently high. The private incentives towards one way trade are
then compared with the social ones.

description: Recent advances in the field of generative artificial intelligence (AI) have blurred the lines between authentic and machine-generated content, making it almost impossible for humans to distinguish between such media. One notable consequence is the use of AI-generated images for fake profiles on social media. While several types of disinformation campaigns and similar incidents have been reported in the past, a systematic analysis has been lacking.
In this work, we conduct the first large-scale investigation of the prevalence of AI-generated profile pictures on Twitter. We tackle the challenges of a real-world measurement study by carefully integrating various data sources and designing a multi-stage detection pipeline. Our analysis of nearly 15 million Twitter profile pictures shows that 0.052% were artificially generated, confirming their notable presence on the platform. We comprehensively examine the characteristics of these accounts and their tweet content, and uncover patterns of coordinated inauthentic behavior. The results also reveal several motives, including spamming and political amplification campaigns. Our research reaffirms the need for effective detection and mitigation strategies to cope with the potential negative effects of generative AI in the future.

description: This study applies Principal Component Analysis (PCA) for anomaly detection in credit card transactions, inspired by the work of Cerdà-Alabern and Iuhasz in wireless community networks. We analyze a large dataset of credit card transactions, using PCA to reduce dimensionality and extract key features. Two models, logistic regression and a neural network, are then applied to the transformed data. Our results demonstrate the effectiveness of PCA in improving model performance, with the logistic regression model achieving 97% accuracy after PCA, compared to 80% without. This research contributes to the ongoing efforts to enhance fraud detection systems in the financial sector.

Dynamic Oligopoly à la Stackelberg with Stochastic Capital Accumulation

description: I investigate a dynamic oligopoly game where firms enter simultaneously
but compete hierarchically `a la Stackelberg at each instant over time. They
accumulate capacity through costly investment, with capital acumulation
dynamics being affected by an additive shock the mean and variance of which
are known. The main findings are the following. First, the Stackelberg
game is uncontrollable by the leader; hence, it is time consistent. Second,
the leaders invest more than the followers; as a result, in steady state, the
leaders’ capacity and profits are larger than the followers’. Therefore, the
present analysis does not confirm Gibrat’s Law, since the individual growth
rate is determined by the timing of moves.

description: We analyze a two-stage game in a vertically differentiated duopoly with
two regions which can differ for the willingness to pay of their consumers
or for the market size; firms sequentially choose to settle in one region
and then simultaneously compete in prices, selling their products both
on the local market and on the foreigner one by exporting them at a fixed
cost. We study how strategic interaction influences firms’ location choices
and we show that the decision whether to agglomerate or not crucially
depends on the extent of regions’ asymmetries, but, counter intuitively,
there are parametric regions in which the model predicts that the leader
(the first firm choosing location) settles either in the poorer or in the
smaller region, leaving the other one to the follower. Welfare analysis
completes the paper.

description: We examine the effects of economic transition on the pattern and costs of worker
displacement in Ukraine, using the Ukrainian Longitudinal Monitoring Survey (ULMS) for
the years 1992 to 2002. Displacement rates in the Ukrainian labor market average between 3.4
and 4.8 percent of employment, roughly in line with levels typically observed in several
Western economies, but considerably larger than in Russia. The characteristics of displaced
workers are similar to those displaced in the West, in so far as displacement is concentrated
on the less skilled. Around one third of displaced workers find re-employment immediately
while the majority continues into long-term non-employment. The wage costs of displacement
for the sub-sample of displaced workers do not seem to be large. The main cost for displaced
workers in Ukraine consists in the extremely long non-employment spell that the average
worker experiences after layoff.

description: Cette réflexion s’inquiète du manque de scientificité réelle de nombre de pratiques archéologiques, passées ou présentes, même si elles s’en donnent l’apparence en s’appuyant sur divers types d’analyses archéométriques. En effet, contrairement à la stratigraphie géologique qui se forme par empilement successif des couches, la stratigraphie archéologique passe par la prise en compte des phénomènes d’érosion et, plus encore, de l’action anthropique de remblaiements et de nivellements nainsi est développée la notion de « couche architecturale », qui englobe la totalité de la construction (infrastructure urbaine et fondations des bâtiments comprises) . L’origine des tells est due à l’architecture de terre, dont il a fallu combattre la fragilité et la sensibilité à l’eau, sans quoi le bâti ne dure pas. Ainsi c’est sur les procédures méthodologiques de la recherche fondamentale que devrait insister la formation des jeunes archéologues, en vue d’une interprétation plus raisonnée des observations, dont la visée reste essentiellement historique.

description: Vehicle Aerodynamics has been the focus of study by researchers for centuries. This interest can be owed to increasing demand on fuel efficiency, vehicle top speed and acceleration performance. Interior aerodynamics, such as engine cooling, air conditioning, wind noise, stability, and cross wind sensitivity play key role in customer satisfaction. Hence a complete understanding of flow around the vehicle is prerequisite to achieve any of the above parameters. Aerodynamic development of motor vehicle is expensive. Much capital must be invested in test facilities such as wind tunnels and climate tunnels. The models are costly and at the beginning of a specific development several design alternatives have to pursued. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) serves as a much cheaper tool to meet current development needs. It can closely simulate flow, and thus help optimize the external body geometry.

The present study aims to simulate the external flow field around a bluff body using computational methods. The Reynolds-averaged Navier Stokes equations are solved using a finite volume method. Aerodynamics of a generic bluff body is studied computationally and validated using experimental results by Lienhart et al. The effect of grid sizes on the computational domain is studied. Furthermore, different turbulence models such as Spalart-Allmaras, standard k-s model, k-co Shear Stress Transport (SST) model and Reynolds Stress model (RSM) are used to simulate turbulent flow. Further, an attempt is made to understand flow phenomenon such as separation regions, turbulence and vorticity. Two different geometric shapes of the bluff body are studied to examine effects of salient body shapes.

This study demonstrates the ability of computational fluid dynamics to simulate ground vehicle aerodynamics. With the developments in computing power, computational fluid dynamics can be applied on real-life transportation problems with reliability, and ease of use, at affordable costs. The results indicate the RSM model to give better results for both geometric configurations considered for this study.

description: Abstract: - This literature review examines the role of mobile applications in prehospital emergency care (PHC), highlighting their impact on service delivery and patient outcomes. As healthcare systems increasingly adopt technological innovations, mobile applications have emerged as critical tools in enhancing communication, accessibility, and decision-making for emergency medical services (EMS). The review synthesizes findings from various studies, revealing that mobile technologies significantly improve real-time access to clinical guidelines, patient data, and communication channels, particularly for individuals with disabilities. Notably, applications like SOSPhone provide alternative communication methods, bridging gaps for users who may struggle with traditional voice calls. Additionally, the review discusses the challenges and limitations of integrating mobile applications into existing EMS frameworks, emphasizing the need for user-centric design and collaboration among stakeholders. The findings underscore the importance of ongoing research to evaluate the long-term effects of mobile technologies on patient outcomes and service delivery in diverse populations. Ultimately, this review aims to inform healthcare professionals, policymakers, and app developers about best practices and future directions for the effective implementation of mobile applications in prehospital settings.

Actuellement, l'évolution du niveau marin à la côte dans cette zone du Pacifique est une problématique non-résolue. En effet, les données altimétriques, marégraphiques et GNSS à terre ne donnent pas une information cohérente (Aucan et al., 2017, Martinez-Asensio et al., 2019) : l'élévation du niveau marin absolu estimée par altimétrie diffère de celle donnée par le marégraphe de Nouméa d'environ 1,4mm/an (Aucan et al, 2017) cette différence n'étant pas expliquée par les tendances de mouvements verticaux estimées par GPS (Ballu et al., 2019). Jusqu'à présent, les traitements des données altimétriques dans la zone de Nouméa n'intègrent ni modèle de géoïde local, ni correction troposphérique autre que celle du radiomètre, ni modèle hydrodynamique local. Il y a donc une piste d'amélioration dans la qualité des séries temporelles que l'on peut produire avec les données d'altimétrie satellitaire. Acquérir les données nécessaires à cette amélioration est un des objectifs de la campagne.Une des inconnues dans la région est liée à la valeur et la tendance de la surélévation locale du plan d'eau (setup) lié aux vagues et au vent qui peut être différente entre la zone où est installé le marégraphe et celle échantillonnée par les produits altimétriques.Dans la campagne GEOCEAN-NC, nous avons cherché à acquérir des données qui permettront : de quantifier le setup et ses variations entre l'extérieur et l'intérieur du lagon sur un profil allant jusqu'au marégraphe de Nouméa d'améliorer les traitements altimétriques en vue d'un rejeu des séries existantes grâce à la cartographie d'un géoide local (Bonnefond et al., 2013). participer aux activités de calibration/validation des missions altimétriques (Bonnefond et al., 2010, projet FOAM, PI Pascal Bonnefond) en acquérant des données in-situ sous la trace du satellite Jason3 lors de 2 passages prévus (le 4 et le 14 octobre sous la trace 162) et sous la trace du satellite Sentinel 3A lors des passages prévus (le 12 octobre sous la trace 359 et le 15 octobre sous la trace 458). d'améliorer les procédures d'acquisition et traitement de données sur la cartographie GPS de la surface de la mer (Bonnefond et al., 2003, Bouin et al., 2009, travail de thèse de C.

description: Background: Laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation are related to sympathetic stimulation and lead to hypertension and tachycardia. These changes in hemodynamics may increase the risk of myocardial ischemia. As a result, effective blunting of these unpleasant responses is required. This study aimed to compare the effects of dexmedetomidine and fentanyl bolus administration on the attenuation of hemodynamic response to tracheal intubation in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgeries.

Methodology: A total of 136 patients of both genders undergoing elective laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgeries satisfying inclusion criteria were randomly allocated into 2 groups (group D and group F). Group D received 1mcg/Kg of dexmedetomidine (Dexa) intravenous (IV) in 100ml of normal saline over 10 minutes and 5ml of normal saline over 3 minutes before induction. Group F received Inj. Fentanyl 2mcg/Kg diluted in 100 ml of normal saline over 10 minutes and 5ml of normal saline 3 minutes before induction. The patients were ventilated for 3 minutes by bag and mask. After 3 minutes of ventilation, endotracheal intubation was done. Vitals (systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, mean arterial blood pressure, heart rate) were recorded from the time of intubation to 10 minutes after that at 1-minute intervals.

Results: In both groups, heart rate increased significantly immediately following intubation (p = 0.002). In the dexmedetomidine group heart rate, mean arterial pressure, and systolic and diastolic blood pressures were significantly controlled at various time points in comparison to the fentanyl group after laryngoscopy and intubation.

Conclusions: Dexmedetomidine in a dose of 1mcg/kg causes greater and sustained attenuation of haemodynamic response to endotracheal intubation among the patients of cholelithiasis undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgeries as compared to fentanyl. Therefore, it can be used as an effective alternative to opioids for the induction of general anaesthesia in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery.

description: Background: Hyperprolactinaemia can cause infertility. Serum prolactin and clinical features of hyperprolactinaemia may vary between obese and non-obese infertile women. Identifying the differences may inform changes in the management of obese women with hyperprolactinaemia. This study aimed to compare the serum prolactin levels and the clinical features of hyperprolactinaemia in obese and non-obese infertile women in Kano.

Methodology: This was a comparative cross-sectional study comprising 160 obese infertile women (study group) and another 160 non-obese infertile women (control group). Participants were recruited in the gynaecology clinics of Aminu Kano Teaching Hospital (AKTH) and Murtala Muhammed Specialist Hospital (MMSH). Serum prolactin and clinical features of those with hyperprolactinaemia were analysed using SPSS 23. P-values ≤ 0.05 were considered significant. Odd ratios at 95% confidence were calculated.

Results: The mean serum prolactin levels were 28.18 ± 10.53ng/ml and 17.50 ±8.00 ng/ml in the obese and non-obese women respectively (P=0.0001). All categories of hyperprolactinaemia were more common (P=0.001) amongst the obese infertile women. The prevalence of hyperprolactinaemia was 37.5% and 18.1% in obese and non-obese arms respectively (P=0.0001). However, 23.1% of obese hyperprolactinaemic infertile women presented with galactorrhoea compared to 64.0% of their non-obese counterparts (P= 0.0001). Abnormal menstrual flow and galactorrhoea were observed more in moderate-markedly elevated serum prolactin levels as seen in 65.2% and 69.6% respectively compared to those with mildly elevated serum prolactin levels.

Conclusion: Obese infertile women have a higher baseline and prevalence of hyperprolactinaemia than their non-obese counterparts. However, non-obese hyperprolactinaemic infertile women presented more with galactorrhoea.

description: Background: Immunization is a very cost-effective and readily available intervention capable of preventing Vaccines Preventable Diseases (VPDs). This study aimed to identify and compare the prevalence and factors associated with zero-dose immunization status among children of nomadic and non-nomadic Fulani in Yobe State, North-East Nigeria.

Methodology: A comparative cross-sectional design was used to study 348 nomadic, and 345 non-nomadic under-five children, selected using a multi-staged sampling technique. Data were collected using interviewer administered questionnaire, observation of child immunization card, and recall by the caregivers, and were analysed using IBM SPSS version 22.0 with a statistical significance set at P ≤5%.

Results: The maximum age of the nomadic caregivers was 60 and the minimum was 17 years with a mean ± SD of 28.2±7.7 years. The maximum age of the non-nomadic caregivers was 78 and the minimum was 17 years with a mean ±SD of 33.0±10.0 years. The prevalence of zero-dose children among nomadic and non-nomadic Fulani were (70.1%, 242), (61.8%, 63) respectively. The zero-dose children were significantly higher among nomads (87.2%, p<0.001) and non-nomad (54.4%, p<0.001) with no available child immunization card. The children of vaccines hesitant caregivers of nomads and non-nomads were 10 or more times more likely to be zero dose than non-hesitant caregivers (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] =477, 95% CI = [177–13031]), and (Adjusted odds ratio [aOR] =9.7, 95% CI = [2.1–44.3]) respectively.

Conclusions: The burden of zero-dose was alarmingly high among nomads compared to non-nomad Fulani despite widespread immunization outreach services in the study area. The government and relevant stakeholders should intensify Context-specific health promotion activities and outreach services targeting these underserved populations.

Subjects: SECS-P/01 Economia politica

description: In this paper shareholders face the trade-off between providing managers
with incentives to exert beneficial effort and to engage in costly fraudulent activity. We solve
for the optimal compensation package, given that shareholders can either grant (restricted)
stock or stock options and given fixed average compensation costs. We show that if the negative
effect of fraud on the company’s value is sufficiently large then stock based compensation
is optimal. Otherwise, stock option based compensation is optimal. Furthermore, we show
that the fraud to effort ratio is increasing in the strike price and that the optimal strike price
is decreasing in the size of the negative effects of fraud on the company’s value.
Copyleft vs Copyright: some competitive effects of Open Source

description: In this paper, we study oligopolistic competition between closed and
open source softwares. By intersecting existing economic contributions on open source,
we propose a two stage game with perfect information and product di¤eretiation in
which producers firstly set softwares quality, then they determine prices (constrained
at zero for open source programs). In doing this, we explicitly model lock-in e¤ects,
network externality components of software quality as well as knowledge accumulation
in software use and implementation.
With respect to a monopolistic benchmark case, we argue that in duopoly a pro-
prietary sofware producer facing an open source software will reduce its selling price
whether: (i) its network of users is larger than open sources one and its consumers are
largely experienced on its program, (ii) it has a small network of un-skilled consumers.
In opposition, after open source softwares emergence, proprietary software price does
augment if proprietary software users form a large, but poorly skilled network. Fur-
thermore, we show that, in all above cases, proprietary software quality increases
because of the existence of a open source alternative to a previouisly monopolistic
program.
Finally, by modeling knowledge accumulation processes through di¤erence equations, we show that the ratio between closed and open source programs opportunity
costs of software learning and deployment plays a crucial role in shaping market outcomes. Until an open source software remains too complex and technical for unskilled
or time-scarse users, a shared market solution in which both softwares are adopted is
predicted. In contrast, if opportunity costs in learning and understanding open source
programs are remarkably low, or at least equal to opportunity costs of a closed source
software, then a open source dominance outcome (i.e. all software are open ones)
phases out.
