The region is tectonically characterized by the ~6 kilometer thick oceanic Nazca plate subducting underneath the continental South American plate at a convergence azimuth of ~ 78 ͦ and at a rate of 6.6 centimeters per year making the area one of the most active convergent margins on earth, typically experiencing a Mw > 8 earthquake every 10 – 20 years (Moscoso, et.al., 2011). Notable quakes in recent history include the 1960 Mw = 9.5 Valdivia earthquake which was the largest ever recorded,…

The book, The 5th Wave by Rick Yancey, begins with Cassie's Sullivan describing flashbacks in her life. She starts with small memories like her father gifting her a telescope and then shifts to thinking of how she wishes she was still the person she was before, the one that hadn't killed people, quite a dramatic change. So far in the book, I have read about the first three waves. The first wave destroys all the electronics on earth, the second destroys most of the world itself and the third one…

The third wave focuses on the place of feminism within the growing world and reaches to include all women regardless of race or…

1.1 Introduction to Landslide A landslide is a geological phenomenon, which includes a wide range of ground movements, such as deep or shallow failure slopes and rock falls. See figure 1.1. 1.1.1 Factors influence Landslides Landslides occur when the stability of the slope turns from the stable state to unstable state. Most of the Landslides usually cause depend on two main factors: (i) Natural Factors and (ii) Anthropogenic Factors. (USSG, 2004) (i) Natural Factors (a) Geological…

rolling wave planning with its schedules being dominated more on resources rather than its activity. Even though the firmness of activity predecessors is absolute and the scope has been determined in the early stage of the project, most of the activities are on the critical path, which depend on the resources in each phase. Given the nature of the project, unique specialisations of resources are needed and the availabilities of those resources are yet to be known. This defines the rolling wave…

adults were being fed by the nutritionist and the other night each person got to choose their own meal. After analysing all of the data, it was clear that a greater fiber intake lead to more time in slow wave sleep, or deep sleep , and higher fat and sugar intakes were linked with less slow wave sleep. Participants also showed that it took about 17 minutes to fall asleep while on a fixed diet, but when they chose what to eat it took almost double the time.…
