On the 4th and 5th of March 2005, about 100 rainfall-induced landslides occurred along volcanic slopes of Camaldoli Hill in Naples, Italy. These started as soil slips in the upper substratum of incoherent and welded volcaniclastic deposits, then evolved ...

The standardized precipitation index (SPI), is one of the most used drought indices. However, it is difficult to use to monitor the ongoing drought characteristics because it cannot be expeditiously related to precipitation deficits. It also does not pro...

In recent years, the development of quick and streamlined methods for the detection and localization of structural damage has been achieved by analysing key dynamic parameters before and after significant events or as a result of aging. Many Structural H...

This paper investigates the impact of trajectory predictor performance on the encounter probability generated by an adaptive conflict detection tool and examines the flexibility of the tool dependent on its adjustable thresholds, using historical radar t...

Structures inevitably suffer damage after an earthquake, with severity ranging from minimal damage of nonstructural elements to partial or even total collapse, possibly with loss of human lives. Thus, it is essential for engineers to understand the cruci...

The increasing number of objects in Earth orbit has encouraged the development of space surveillance and tracking (SST) applications. A critical aspect of SST is the identification and characterization of close encounters between pairs of space objects. ...

The design strategies for flood risk reduction in coastal towns must be informed by the likelihood of flooding resulting from both precipitation and coastal storm surge. This paper discusses various bivariate extreme value methods to investigate the join...

Odorous sediments containing volatile organic sulfur compounds (VOSCs) are a common issue in shallow water reservoirs globally. Volatile organic sulfur compounds are a typical class of malodorous substances that have attracted widespread attention due to...

Owing to climate change, heavy rainfall events have increased in recent years, often resulting in urban flooding. Urban flood models usually consider buildings to be closed obstacles, which is not the case in reality. To address this research gap, an exi...
