Comparison of transport methodologies on near-field pollutant dispersion in urban environments using CFD by Tee, Clarence Wei Tat

“…The focus of this study is to understand and quantify the differences between the two models when applied to near-field dispersion of heavy gases. The two methodologies are validated by simulating the dispersion phenomena for two test cases which largely bear resemblance to urban settings: a three-dimensional street canyon setup and the Mock Urban Setting Test (MUST) field experiment. …”

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

“…Geologic relationships and patterns of crustal seismicity constrain the three-dimensional geometry of the active portions of San Andreas fault zone near San Gorgonio Pass, southern California. Within a 20-km-wide contractional stepover between two segments of the fault zone, the San Bernardino and Coachella Valley segments, folds, and dextral-reverse and dextral-normal faults form an east-west belt of active structures. …”

The pivotal role of sleep in mediating the effects of life stressors and healthy habits on allostatic load in mid-life adults by Buller-Peralta, I, Gregory, S, Low, A, Dounavi, M, Bridgeman, K, Ntailianis, G, Lawlor, B, Naci, L, Koychev, I, Malhotra, P, O'Brien, JT, Ritchie, CW, Dauvilliers, Y, Muniz-Terrera, G

“…The modulation of AL by both types of stressors was only revealed in model 2, through indirect effects of perceived influence via sleep quality. An effect of sport habits on AL via resilience was found to be mediated by sleep, and equivalent but opposed effects of perceived influence of stressors and resilience on sleep quality emerged as critical factor for AL modulation. …”
