Abstract:
Abstract This study was conducted to measure two quality variables of ground beef: cooking loss and shrinkage. Twenty 454g packages of ground chuck from a commercial grocery store 80:20 lean:fat ratio (calculated per label to be 71:29), and 20 packages of ground beef from a specific breed (SB) (calculated per label to be 75:25) were used. Each package was divided into four hand-formed patties weighing 118-120g (n = 80). Prior to grilling, the patties were weighed, circumference measured (cm), and thickness measured (cm). Patties were grilled on a George Foreman Grill to an internal temperature of 73.9° C. Cooking loss (meat drippings) from grilled patties was collected. After reaching the desired internal temperature, individual patties were removed from the grill, weighed, and circumference and thickness measured. Cooking loss was collected in a grease tray and from the grill surface with a spatula. Cooking loss was weighed (g) and contents poured into a glass jar and stored in a freezer for further evaluation. There was no difference (P > 0.05) in cooking loss between the control and SB treatment, 61.40% and 61.34% respectively. A difference (P < 0.05) was found in cooking shrinkage (circumference and thickness). Circumference between fresh and cooked showed a change of 15.48% (control) and 12.88% (SB) (P < 0.05). Patty thickness between fresh and cooked changed by 9.32% (control) and 5.71 % (SB) (P<0.05). Total cooking loss per 454g package did not differ 13.74% (control) and 14.16% (SB). However, when cooking loss was separated in solid and liquid portions, the solid portion was 19.71% (control) and 28.30% (SB) (P < 0.05). These data indicate that quality attributes of ground beef vary between sources with similar lean:fat ratio.

Abstract:
We update annualized and scenario earthquake loss estimations for California using HAZUS, a loss estimation tool developed by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, and evaluate the effects of changes in input ground motions over the last decade on estimated earthquake losses. Our estimated statewide average earthquake loss to building stock from shaking is approximately $2.8 billion per year, with 32% of it occurring in Los Angeles County and 23% in the San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont metropolitan statistical area. This estimate reflects a 25% to 28% reduction because of changes in input ground motions. Scenario results indicate a 28% to 63% reduction in estimated building economic losses because of changes in input ground motions. Changes in input ground motions are mainly attributed to the use of next generation attenuation relations and, to a lesser extent, to updated earthquake source models and differing approaches for incorporating near-surface site effects.

Abstract:
Ground subsidence is one of the environmental geological problems today which arises in the process of world urbanization and can't be ignored. It is related closely to the local economic activities, and causes great hazard to the sustainable socio-economic development. Therefore, this problem has been paid much attention to by the whole society for a long time. The author of this paper analyzes the urban ground subsidence mechanism by adopting Terzaghi's effective stress principle and one-dimensional consolidation theory, and puts forward measures to prevent and control the ground subsidence.

Abstract:
Over the last three decades, significant advances have been made in the development of models to estimate losses caused by ground shaking in future earthquakes. This research focuses on losses caused by liquefaction-induced ground failure. A comprehensive study of the causes of damage and loss in recent earthquakes is used to rank the relative contribution of ground-failure to earthquake losses and to illustrate scenarios where ground-failures can dominate the losses. Subsequently, it is demonstrated that current practice for incorporating liquefaction into earthquake loss estimations is problematic in its application. Simplified approaches are based upon many assumptions and hence carry large and often undefined uncertainties, and more detailed approaches require large volumes of data, which can be prohibitive in terms of time and resources. Even if detailed analysis is possible, it is shown that many aspects of liquefaction, particularly how it impacts the built environment in terms of regional damage and losses are not well covered by our present modelling capabilities. Having identified shortcomings in current practice, which are supported by case history data from the 1999 Kocaeli, Turkey earthquake, an improved framework is proposed, which seeks to provide a pragmatic solution to the issues of spatial uncertainty and variability in ground conditions and the exposed building stock, while still producing a realistic and meaningful estimation of the expected damage distribution as a result of earthquake hazards. Within this improved framework, existing building damage scales are shown to be insufficient with respect to describing some modes of liquefaction-related damage and proposed improvements to these scales are presented. Building vulnerability to liquefaction-induced ground deformations is analytically defined, and importantly, the relative uncertainties associated with each level of input data and each stage of the analysis are carefully considered and fully documented.

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis examines the ground motion prediction component of earthquake loss estimation (ELE) frameworks and is based on the assertion that reducing the uncertainty in ground motion prediction will result in improved accuracy of loss estimates. The objective is to obtain improved ground motion predictions by identifying and quantifying the sources of uncertainty in the predictions, with particular focus on the portion of the uncertainty that can be reduced. The work presented in this thesis starts with an examination of ground motion measures commonly used in ELE and their relative utility. The ground motion measure Arias Intensity is identified as well-suited to application in a number of problems in earthquake engineering and this along with the lack of a robust equation for its prediction, leads to the development of a new predictive equation for Arias Intensity. Next, the prediction of Arias Intensity at spatially separated locations is studied in order to develop a model for the spatial correlation of Arias Intensity so that loss estimates for spatially distributed portfolios may be obtained. Thirdly, the sources of uncertainties in the predicted values of Arias Intensity are investigated and the uncertainties are characterised and quantified in order to establish whether or not they may be reduced. The impacts of these uncertainties on the new predictive equation for Arias Intensity are also examined. The final part of the thesis focusses on the use of GIS to display the information described in the previous sections on ground motion prediction. Particular attention is given to enhancing the display of uncertainties in ground motion predictions. This thesis demonstrates that the impacts of uncertainty on ground motion predictions and therefore earthquake loss estimation are significant, making this research of particular importance in this field.

Abstract:
Noise exposure is one of the most common hazards in the work force. There are multiple occupations that experience large amounts of noise exposure to its employees on a regular basis. Flight ground crews and flight maintenance personnel are among the nosiest jobs that exist. Despite the mandatory hearing protection requirements for a job of this caliber, there still remains a chance of an over exposure to noise. Most of the exposure comes from the different types of loud repair equipment and tools, but the greatest exposure comes from a jet engine that can reach 140 decibels. Flight maintenance personnel often work in an environment where the hours are long and there is continuous noise at high decibels. Flight maintenance personnel are typically in multiple places throughout a workday because of the maintenance responsibilities of different equipment, trucks, and planes. This study will examine the noise exposure levels of the service members in the Aerospace Ground Equipment (AGE) department on a United States Air Force base. The study will help determine if the service members in the AGE department are being over exposed to noise from their daily routines as flight repair personnel. There has been previous noise sampling done on the AGE department and there will be a comparison of data due to different equipment, change in personnel, and standard operating procedures for the department. The bioengineering/ environmental department is typically responsible for sampling of the AGE department. They have had a difficult time with suggesting engineering controls due to the constant mobility of the maintenance crews. As a result, they have to rely heavily on administrative controls and effective Personal Protective Equipment (PPE). This study will include sampling for a standard workday including day and night shift for the AGE department. The sampling will be done by using personal noise dosimeters and a sound level meter will be used to conduct area sampling for equipment in AGE shop. The AGE department on the Air Force base agreed to allow personnel from their shop to participate in this study. In this study, we will adhere to the Air force safety regulations and sampling techniques

Full text
Abstract:
This thesis describes aspects of durability of Swedish softwood in above ground applications. The thesis consists of a summary of nine papers, which all aim to explain the existing variation in above ground microbial durability and moisture sensitivity of Norway spruce (Picea abies) and Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris). The methods used were two field tests, one accelerated durability test, and three water permeability tests. The main conclusions made in the study were that Norway spruce sapwood is more susceptible to discolouring fungi than heartwood. With respect to Scots pine, the only important factor for its natural durability above ground was whether the samples consisted of heartwood or of sapwood. There was also no systematic variation between pine heartwood from different stand origins in above ground conditions. Origin had no influence on durability in practice for neither spruce nor pine. Furthermore, in contradiction with traditional thinking, annual ring width and density had no influence on durability in any of the tests. The material came from two different samplings. The ‘old’ material was sampled in the beginning of the 1980s and consisted of Scots pine and Norway spruce from three different origins: the north, the central area, and the south of Sweden. The material was subjected to different handling conditions and surface and end-grain treatments. The ‘old’ material was used in a large above ground field test, carried out between 1985 and 1994. Unfortunately, the spruce sapwood and heartwood was not separated in this field test. In the field trial with the ‘old’ material, the most important factor for the durability of Norway spruce was the samples’ surface- and end-grain treatment. It was also observed that untreated spruce showed better durability than samples that were painted but without proper end-grain treatment. Samples originating from one of the stands were more sensitive towards air-drying than samples from the other two, which was reflected in a higher average moisture content and mass loss for the untreated samples. With respect to Scots pine, the most important factor was whether the sample consisted of heartwood or of sapwood. The heartwood samples were durable irrespective of their previous treatment. The Scots pine sapwood samples, on the other hand, had a very fluctuating moisture content if they were not surface- and end-painted. This was also reflected in higher mass losses in these samples. Even when properly surface- and end grain treated, the sapwood samples did not perform as well as the heartwood samples. The ‘new’ material consisted of Scots pine taken from six different stands, and Norway spruce from five different stands, all from areas in southern Sweden. The sampling was performed in order to achieve a large variation in wood properties. Thus, logs from areas with different climate and growth conditions were collected. This material was used for laboratory tests, and also for the second field test, which was evaluated after a test period of two years. In the second field test untreated Scots pine and Norway spruce samples from the ‘new’ material were investigated. Effects of origin and different tree diameters were examined. Furthermore, Scots pine was separated to heartwood and sapwood, and Norway spruce to mature and juvenile wood. The Norway spruce samples were sawn with vertical or horizontal annual rings. For the Norway spruce in the second field test, vertical annual rings were shown to be very beneficial for avoiding crack formation, while samples with horizontal annual rings displayed a large number of cracks. Despite this, the larger number of cracks did not result in a higher moisture content or more fungal discoloration. Juvenile wood had a slightly higher average discolouring fungal growth grading than the other spruce samples. For Scots pine, the only factor of importance was whether the samples consisted of heartwood or of sapwood. Annual ring width, density and origin had no significant effect on either fungal growth or moisture uptake. This observation held for both Norway spruce samples and Scots pine samples. An accelerated test was run in order to investigate Norway spruce sapwood and heartwood with respect to their differences in durability towards discolouring fungi and moisture uptake. The Mycologg method was used to accelerate fungal growth during a number of forced moisture cycles. The results showed that sapwood was much more sensitive to discolouring fungi than heartwood. Sapwood also recorded a higher average moisture content than heartwood. The differences that were observed between the types of samples were not due to annual ring width, density or origin. It was observed that Norway spruce sapwood samples and heartwood samples showed differences in liquid water permeability. This observation was made especially evident in a droplet absorption test. Water droplets were absorbed much faster on the sapwood samples in comparison with the heartwood samples. This higher affinity to water suggested that a sapwood surface would reach a higher moisture content than a heartwood surface. This observation provides a major explanation of why the sapwood samples showed poorer durability towards discolouring fungi in the Mycologg trials.

Abstract:
<p>The non-engineered building built before 2004 remained after Gorkha earthquake although such structures demonstrate seismic deficient. Therefore, the present study aims to carry out detail seismic performance of such building to investigate as-built seismic performance and its performance after intervention of retrofit measures. Two in situ tests were performed, which includes Schmidt hammer test and ambient vibration test. The adaptive pushover analysis and dynamic time history analyses were performed for as-built and retrofitted building. The retrofit measures increase the stiffness and maximum base shear capacity of the buildings. In addition, such retrofit measures improved single storey drift concentration in existing building such that uniform drift profile can be attained. Furthermore, the probability of exceeding damage states can be significantly reduced and mainly found to be more effective in minimizing higher damage states, such as partial collapse and collapse states. The maximum expected annual loss occurs between 0.1 g and 0.2 g PGA (Peak Ground Acceleration). It was revealed that the steel braced building was found to be relatively more effective in enhancing the seismic performance, whereas reinforced concrete shear wall found more economic feasible retrofit measure for this particular building.</p>

Abstract:
AbstractThe assessment of earthquake and risk to a portfolio, in urban or regional scale, constitutes an important element in the mitigation of economic and social losses due to earthquakes, planning of immediate post-earthquake actions as well as for the development of earthquake insurance schemes. Earthquake loss and risk assessment methodologies consider and combine three main elements: earthquake hazard, fragility/vulnerability of assets and the inventory of assets exposed to hazard. Challenges exist in the characterization of the earthquake hazard as well as in the determination of the fragilities/vulnerabilities of the physical and social elements exposed to the hazard. The simulation of the spatially correlated fields of ground motion using empirical models of correlation between intensity measures is an important tool for hazard characterization. The uncertainties involved in these elements and especially the correlation in these uncertainties, are important to obtain the bounds of the expected risks and losses. This paper looks at the current practices in regional and urban earthquake risk assessment, discusses current issues and provides illustrative applications from Istanbul and Turkey.

Abstract:
Sublimation of ice is rate-controlled by vapor transport away from its outer surface and may have generated landforms on Mars. In ice-cemented ground (permafrost), the lag of soil particles remaining after ice loss decreases subsequent sublimation. Varying soil-ice ratios lead to differential lag development. Here we report 52 years of sublimation measurements from a permafrost tunnel near Fairbanks, Alaska, and constrain models of sublimation, diffusion through porous soil, and lag formation. We derive the first long-term in situ effective diffusion coefficient of ice-free loess, a Mars analog soil, of 9.05 × 10⁻⁶ m² s⁻¹, ~5× larger than past theoretical studies. Exposed ice-wedge sublimation proceeds ~4× faster than predicted from analogy to heat loss by buoyant convection, a theory frequently employed in Mars studies. Our results can be used to map near-surface ice-content differences, identify surface processes controlling landform formation and morphology, and identify target landing sites for human exploration of Mars.
