Keeping transport links open in adverse conditions and being able to restore connections quickly after extreme events are important and demanding tasks for infrastructure owners/operators. This paper is developed within the H2020 project SAFEWAY, who...

The internet often serves as a communication platform for users to freely express opinions. However, as it supports the quick and wide spread of public opinions, it often results in great uncertainty and is very difficult to control. As a result, eva...

Urban lifeline Natech events are coupled systems composed of multiple risks and entities with complex dynamic transmission chains. Predicting risk evolution probabilities is the core task for achieving the safety management of urban lifeline Natech e...

Extreme cold events (ECEs) have occurred more frequently over the last few winters in China, associated with large losses of human life and increasing costs. Here, copulas are used to establish a bivariate copula distribution model for ECE variables...

Background/Objectives: Germ cell tumors are the most common neoplasia in males < 50 y. In two case series, thromboembolic events (TEs) were reported in 8% and 13% of patients undergoing chemotherapy, whereas arterial thromboembolic events (ATEs) i...

Extreme climates can result in marked damage to crop yields and threaten regional and global food security. Maize is a major grain crop in Liaoning Province which is severely affected by dry and hot weather events. This study was based on the maize y...

With the considerable increase in ownership of motor vehicles, traffic crashes have become a challenge. This paper presents a study of naturalistic driving conducted to collect driving data. The experiments were performed on different road types in t...

The rapid expansion of artificial intelligence is tightening the interdependence between digital infrastructure and energy systems, making the linkages between technology and energy increasingly important for understanding energy security. This study...

Drought-induced risk has attracted the attention of many scholars, but the risk of combined events caused by drought and high-temperature heat waves still needs further study. Based on MODIS products and meteorological data, the spatiotemporal variat...

In volatile economic environments, corporate resilience is a prerequisite for sustainable development. This study explores the non-linear impact of controversial events on corporate resilience using a sample of 4430 listed Chinese firms from 2018 to...
