Ecological factors affecting gene flow between populations of Anarthrophyllum cumingii (Papilionaceae) growing on equatorial- and polar-facing slopes in the Andes of Central Chile
(1997)
In the Andes of Central Chile, flowering commences 1-2 months earlier on equatorial-(north-) facing than on polar- (south-) facing slopes, and pollinator assemblages also differ between these habitats. In order to understand ...
Seismically induced rock slope failures resulting from topographic amplification of strong ground motions: The case of Pacoima Canyon California
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2005-08)
The 1994 Northridge earthquake (M-w = 6.7) triggered extensive rock slope failures in Pacoima Canyon, immediately north of Los Angeles, California. Pacoima Canyon is a narrow and steep canyon incised in gneissic and granitic ...
Previsão de alcances de rupturas de taludes de Belo Horizonte por meio de retroanálises: uma contribuição para a gestão do risco
(Universidade Federal de Minas GeraisUFMG, 2011-06-13)
The objective of this research is to evaluate the applicability of the dynamic analysis methodology to predict the runout of slope failures in Belo Horizonte and to obtain rheological parameters of the studied materials. ...
Análisis tridimensional de estabilidad de taludes y comparación con el análisis bidimensional
(Bogotá - Ingeniería - Maestría en Ingeniería - GeotecniaUniversidad Nacional de Colombia - Sede Bogotá, 2020-02-14)
By carrying out this thesis work a method is developed for the three-dimensional analysis of slope stability based on pre-existing methods of two-dimensional analysis. The method is extended in such a way that it also ...
Espécies vegetais para o manejo biotécnico de taludes e aspectos ambientais associados
(Universidade Federal de Santa MariaBRRecursos Florestais e Engenharia FlorestalUFSMPrograma de Pós-Graduação em Engenharia Florestal, 2013-03-04)
This study aimed to investigate the suitability of plant species for biotechnical management
of slopes in oxisol soils. The studies began in March 2009, in the region of Cruz Alta-RS,
South Brazil (28°23 28,14 S e 53°22 ...
Regionalization of rainfall over the Peruvian Pacific slope and coast
(John Wiley and Sons Ltd, 2017-01)
Documenting the heterogeneity of rainfall regimes is a prerequisite for water resources management, mitigation of risks associated to extremes weather events and for impact studies. In this paper, we present a method for ...
Analysis and design of constant-frequency peak-current-controlled high-power-factor boost rectifier with slope compensation
(1996-01-01)
This paper presents the analysis and the design of a peak-current-controlled high-power-factor boost rectifier, with slope compensation, operating at constant frequency. The input current shaping is achieved, with continuous ...
