Risk Assessment and Spatial Migration Patterns of Compound Flood and Derived Landslide Disasters in Guangzhou,China by LI Xiaodi, ZHONG Ming, LI Xueyou

“…Compound floods and derived landslide disasters are frequent in estuaries under the influence of high-intensity localized heavy rainfalls and tidal level top support.This paper proposes a comprehensive method for risk assessment and spatial migration patterns of compound flood and derived landslide disasters.Meanwhile,taking Guangzhou as the study area,it constructs the index system for risk assessment of compound floods and derived landslide disasters in the city.Additionally,the weighted comprehensive evaluation method is adopted to assess the risk of multi-source compound disasters,and the spatial risk distribution pattern of the above-mentioned three types of disasters and the migration law of the disaster risk are explored based on the standard deviation ellipse method.The results are as follows:① 52.81% areas of Guangzhou are medium-high risk and high-risk ones,and the risk of composite floods and derived landslide disasters as a whole presents the characteristics of high risk in the northeast and low risk in the southwest,among which the risk of Conghua District and Zengcheng District is higher.Thus,disaster prevention and mitigation measures should be taken to reduce the disaster risks in the above areas.② The center of gravity of the risk of heavy rainfall flooding-composite flooding-composite flooding and derived landslide hazards first moves to the southwest and then to the northeast,and the disaster risk shows a southwest-northeast distribution pattern,with the first enhanced and then gradually weakened aggregation effect of disaster risks.The results can provide a scientific basis for the risk decision-making of compound disasters and disaster prevention planning.…”

Active Fault Tolerant Control Based on a Novel Tracking Differentiator for Elevating Stage Control System by Haijie Mao, Wei Li, Xiaolin Feng

“…Thirdly, in order to avoid the switching vibration and improve the reliability of FDD, a continuous smooth switching tactic based on exponential function is constructed. The simulation results show that the fault diagnosis method is simple and timely, the designed tracking differentiator is fast and effective, and the effect of the fault tolerant control based on smooth switching strategy is also satisfactory.…”

Excès et sacré dans la littérature victorienne et édouardienne by Annie Escuret

“…Some writers (like Dickens or Virginia Woolf) do insist on the importance of immanent forms of the sacred whereas Hardy and Conrad insist mainly on the absence of any form of sacredness. Bataille constructs his heterology around the threshold of the sacred, the line marked by interdictions that solicit transgressive action. …”

Translation and Psychometric Evaluation of the Health Orientation Scale in a Greek Speaking Sample (Greece-Cyprus) by Constantinos Togas, Stavros Parlalis

“…Test-retest reliability of the ten subscales of the HOS was also adequate, ranging from r=.69 to .94. Concerning its construct (convergent and discriminant) validity, many significant correlations were found between the ten subscales of the HOS and Health Locus of Control, Life Orientation Test-Revised, Body Appreciation Scale (BAS), and State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI)…”

Generalized Fefferman-Graham gauge and boundary Weyl structures by Gabriel Arenas-Henriquez, Felipe Diaz, David Rivera-Betancour

“…To address these, we introduce a new codimension-two counterterm, or corner term, that ensures the finiteness of the gravitational action. From here, we construct the quantum-generating functional, the holographic stress tensor, and compute the corresponding Weyl anomaly, showing that the latter is now expressed in a full Weyl covariant way. …”

ON VARIETY OF INTEGRATION PROCESSES IN EUROPE by L. S. Voronkov

“…Many details of the EU activity are not applicable to other integration groupings in Europe and membership criteria in every of them is not universal. Any efforts to construct integration processes in the post-Soviet space in accordance to the EU model without proper consideration to integration experiences of other countries and to political, economic, social, cultural, demographic, military peculiarities of the countries concerned seem to be not acceptable and founded.…”

INTERACTIVE LEARNING TECHNOLOGIES IN HIGHER EDUCATION AS A TOOL FOR TRAINING A COMPETITIVE SPECIALIST by О. Bieliaieva, Т. Skrypnikova, Т. Khmil

“…A defining feature of interactive learning is creative, constant and effective communication between the subjects of the educational process and the presence of constructive feedback between them. The main advantages of interactive learning are the ability to: level the contradiction between motivation and stimulation in the learning process, static and dynamic learning; form the future doctors' awareness of the importance and value of various types of communication; simulate professional situations, solving which students can demonstrate the acquired knowledge, abilities and skills in a relaxed and psychologically comfortable atmosphere, which encourages them to actively participate in all stages of an interactive class; solve real cases from medical / dental practice; implement formative assessment; regulate inter-subject relationships in the educational process; develop clinical thinking, the ability to substantiate one's own opinion and the ability to defend one's own position, critically evaluate adopted and propose alternative solutions, teamwork skills, communicative culture, positive motivation, and self-confidence.…”
