Real-Time Prediction of the Trend of Ground Motion Intensity Based on Deep Learning by Tao Liu, Zhijun Dai

“…Moreover, the correlation between the Arias intensity and structural damage is stronger than the correlation between peak acceleration and structural damage, so the model is useful for determining real-time response measures on earthquake disaster prevention and mitigation compared with the current more common antiseismic measures based on predictive PGA.…”

Experimental and model analysis of the thermoelectric characteristics of serial arc in prismatic lithium‐ion batteries by Wenqiang Xu, Languang Lu, Kai Zhou, Yalun Li, Bin Gao

“…Then, on the basis of the series arc experimental platform, determine the value of the arc starting voltage and the critical power supply voltage that produces a stable arc, analyse the evolution of the arc burning time with different loop currents, the evolution of the arc of the separation gap, and then summarise the effect of the disaster on the battery. Finally, the errors of simulation and experimental arc voltage and battery surface temperature are analysed to verify the accuracy of the model.…”

Embodying the Spirit (<i>meyppāṭu</i>): A <i>puttiṇai</i> Perspective by Nirmal Selvamony

“…Using this tool, I outline the idea of <i>meyppāṭu</i> in the primal community, in the state society, and also in the industrialist state, and show how the understanding of <i>meyppāṭu</i> in the primal world (what I have called <i>viḻuttiṇai</i>) ensured a love-based lifeway necessary for the wellbeing of the people and all the beings other than humans that were also part of that world, and why this understanding is necessary today to end the present Anthropocenic industrialist lifeway, which has brought humans and beings other than humans to the brink of disaster.…”
