Globalization : Perak's Rise, Relative Decline, and Regeneration / by Nazrin Shah Ibni Sultan Azlan Muhibbuddin Shah, Sultan, 543480, Oxford University Press (Online service) 655242

“…This book ties together various sub-themes: economic geography, the institutional legacy of colonialism, increasing federal government centralization, forces of economic agglomeration and human migration, which drove Perak’s fortunes in sometimes dramatic economic cycles and ultimately led to the collapse of its tin and rubber industries and the migration of many of its young and skilled. …”

Covid-19 and our sense of place by O'Hara, Joshua Shea

“…While space is commonly thought of as measurable and quantifiable, both phenomenologists and thinkers within the domain of human geography have suggested an inherent existential aspect to spatial ontology that quantitative explanatory structures cannot account for. …”

Adjoint-state differential arrival time tomography by Tong, Ping, Li, Tianjue, Chen, Jing, Nagaso,Masaru

“…Instead, it utilizes the eikonal equation to depict the minimal traveltime field from an earthquake location to any position in the computational domain. The process of tomographic inversion is formulated as an optimization problem with the goal of minimizing the difference between observed and theoretical first arrival times, which is subsequently solved using the efficient adjoint method. …”

Diachronic Toponomastics and Etymology: Epistemological Proposals According to the New Convergence Theory by Perono Cacciafoco, Francesco

“…The first part is inherent in a brief evaluation of the current approaches to Indo-European origins and Etymology and in the theoretical explanation of the NCT’s epistemological fundamentals, the second part deals with some examples of etymological reconstructions conducted according to this innovative approach in which Historical Phonetics, historical Semantics, historical Geography, and Landscape Archaeology participate in recovering the most ancient origins (or ‘proto-origins’) of names (‘paleo-names’) and of languages in prehistoric Europe.…”

Kinematics of Active Deformation Across the Western Kunlun Mountain Range (Xinjiang, China) and Potential Seismic Hazards Within the Southern Tarim Basin by Guilbaud, Christelle, Simoes, Martine, Barrier, Laurie, Laborde, Amandine, Van der Woerd, Jérôme, Li, Haibing, Tapponnier, Paul, Coudroy, Thomas, Murray, Andrew

“…To quantify the rate of active deformation and the potential for major earthquakes in this region, we combine a structural and quantitative morphological analysis of the Yecheng–Pishan fold, along the topographic mountain front in the epicentral area. Using a seismic profile, we derive a structural cross section in which we identify the fault that broke during the Pishan earthquake, an 8–12 km deep blind ramp beneath the Yecheng–Pishan fold. …”

Complexities of the San Andreas fault near San Gorgonio Pass : implications for large earthquakes by Yule, Doug, Sieh, Kerry

“…(U/Th)/He thermochronometry supports our interpretation that this south-under-north thickening of the crust has created the region's 3 km of topographic relief. We conclude that future large earthquakes generated along the San Andreas fault in this region will have a multiplicity of mostly specifiable sources having dimensions of 1–20 km. …”

Cogency of Suggestion System in Managing Innovation: Reducing Progressive Die Change Over Time in Auto Stamping Operations by Baluch, Nazim Hussain, Mohtar, Shahimi, Nordin, Norani

“…The global financial crisis had dramatic impact on auto manufacturing worldwide; however, these were felt uniquely severely in North America, largely because of its asymmetric position within the geography of automotive globalization. To cope with the financial volatilities, Beta industries, a metal stamping division of Magana International, turned to ‘process innovation’ for improving effectiveness of their stamping operations; process innovation pertains to finding better or more efficient ways of producing existing products, or delivering existing services. …”
