Research on Discrete Element Numerical Simulation of Loess Landslide under Earthquakes by GUAN Xiaodi

“…In order to deeply explore the motion and slip laws of loess landslide under earthquake loads,this paper used the discrete element method to numerically simulate the motion of the landslide mass under earthquake loads based on the Heifangtai Landslide in Gansu.The results show that the loess landslide has three parts under the earthquake loads,namely,the source area,the circulation area,and the accumulation area.The residual soil structure in the source area is looser than that before the sliding.In addition,the sliding displacement of particles at different positions near the slope surface in the source area varies greatly.The displacement of particles at the leading edge of the landslide mass is the largest,and that of particles at the trailing edge of the landslide is smaller.As the depth increases,the displacement of particles gradually decreases,and the difference is large.…”

Enfermer les contagieux et les contagieuses à Marseille pendant la peste de 1720 by Fleur Beauvieux

“…This period of high mortality led to a redefinition of confinement at the beginning of the 18th century: being locked up became in part a punishment, well before the post-revolutionary laws that would institute this punishment. Although previous plagues in the 17th century had already seen the emergence of places of confinement such as the Refuge, this was out of all proportion to the significant increase seen in times of epidemics. …”

Investigation and Analysis of Public Participation in the River Chief System——Taking Guangdong as an Example by HUANG Fenghua, HUANG Bensheng, QIU Jing

“…As an important way for treatment and management of rivers and lakes,public participation is an important part of the river chief system.Based on the data of 120 000 public survey questionnaires in Guangdong Province,this paper analyzes the public participation in Guangdong's river chief system from five aspects of public awareness,participation,satisfaction,confidence,and support.The research shows that:public participation in the river chief system is relatively high in awareness,satisfaction,and confidence,but participation and support are obviously insufficient.Based on the analysis results of survey questionnaire,it proposes countermeasures and suggestions to improve the public participation mechanism in terms of establishing laws and regulations for public participation,raising public participation awareness,and setting up exclusive festivals for river protection.…”
