James E. Beavers, Ph.D., P.E., "Seismic Hazard Design Issues in the Central United States (Council on Disaster Risk Management Monograph 7"
English | 2014 | pages: 171 | ISBN: 0784413207 | PDF | 5,4 mb
Papers presented at the Seismic Hazards Workshop, held in Memphis, Tennessee, April 10, 2012. Sponsored by the Council on Disaster Risk Management of ASCE. Seismic Hazard Design Issues in the Central United Statescontains nine papers focusing on seismic design issues arising from the implementation of the new International Building Code and ASCE Standard 7-10 in the central United States and specifically in the New Madrid Seismic Zone. Topics include: deep soil site response in the Mississippi Embayment and the unique aspects of liquefaction in the area; history of seismic design in the central United States; changes in the earthquake response spectra for critical facilities; adoption and implementation of new seismic safety regulations and design standards in Tennessee and Kentucky; unreinforced masonry and safe school design; resiliency measures to reduce seismic hazard impact; and modeling multihazard events and resulting consequences. This CDRM Monograph will be of interest to engineers, geologists, emergency response planners, and policymakers working to develop comprehensive seismic design procedures.

Multi-Hazard Early Warning and Disaster Risks by Dilanthi Amaratunga
English | EPUB | 2021 | 914 Pages | ISBN : 3030730026 | 137.7 MB
This book presents a collection of papers under the theme of multi-hazard early warning and disaster risks. These were selected from the presentations made at the International Symposium on Tsunami and Multi-Hazard Risks, Early Warning and Community Awareness in supporting implementation of the Sendai Framework for Disaster Risk Reduction 2015-2030. This conference aimed to recognize achievements and to highlight work that still needs to be carried out. The conference promoted collaboration among academia, research institutions and disaster management offices, and further encouraged multidisciplinary and multi-sectoral interaction.

This book describes the complexity of impact hazards associated with asteroids and comets. The challenge in this regard lies in the heterogeneous nature of these bodies that endanger our planet, which is why we are conducting new experiments to better understand their unique physicochemical properties. Several generations of astronomers have tracked and mapped the orbits of asteroids and comets over the past few centuries, and telescopic surveys have only begun to discover "new" interstellar objects. In addition, cutting-edge software allow our computers to combine the orbits of these elusive bodies to study how they evolve over time and seek to match asteroid complexes as fragments of asteroidal and cometary disruptions.
Impact hazards represent one of the greatest threats to the survival of human beings in the medium term. Geological studies show that the stratigraphic record holds clear geological evidence of these rare but transcendental encounters in the history of life on our planet. The study and quantification of past catastrophes can give us clues to face future challenges in the form of potential impacts.

When Alan Maimon got the assignment in 2000 to report on life in rural Eastern Kentucky, his editor at the Louisville Courier-Journal told him to cover the region "like a foreign correspondent would." And indeed, when Maimon arrived in Hazard, Kentucky, fresh off a reporting stint for the New York Times's Berlin bureau, he felt every bit the outsider. He had landed in a place in the vice grip of ecological devastation and a corporate-made opioid epidemic - a place where vote-buying and drug-motivated political assassinations were the order of the day.

Many workplaces around the world are subject to regulations requiring the employer to tell all employees about the chemicals they are working with or may be exposed to. This is often called "the right to know." Many common chemicals and products fall under these right to know requirements. In this course, instructor Jim Rogers shows you how to properly communicate this information to everyone in the workplace, so they understand what precautions to take and how to keep themselves safe. Jim begins by explaining the right to know, then goes into a detailed discussion of different hazardous substances in the workplace. He covers ways to categorize hazards, as well as pictograms that alert the user to the hazards and what precautions they need to take. After stepping through how to build and understand a hazard communication (HazCom) program, Jim concludes with special considerations for several industries such as construction, pharmacies, and chemical processors.

With this book, readers will learn how to apply their knowledge and skills in order to create communities that are more resilient to the impacts of hazards. It clearly presents the major principles involved in preparing for and mitigating the impacts of hazards in emergency management. This resource also provides real-world examples of different tools and techniques that emergency managers can use to reduce the impact of different types of hazards.

Helene Richards, "Bullying in the Workplace: An Occupational Hazard"
English | 2009 | ASIN: N/A | 288 pages | EPUB | 5.6 MB
Since 2002, when Bullying in the Workplace: An Occupational Hazard was first published, there has been little, if any, reduction in bullying behaviour. Despite more general awareness of the issue, bullying is still rife in schools and in the adult world, condoned and even encouraged in politics, in sport, and in the workplace. In this new edition, the authors explore workplace bullying, focusing particularly on psychological bullying, which is often done on the sly, without witnesses, and so is much more difficult to prove. This very practical, comprehensive and easy-to-read book summarizes the different types of workplace bully, the effects of bullying on employees and employers, the rights of employees and employers, avenues for conflict resolution, legal options for victims, survival strategies, and more.
