Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleVulnerability and Protection of Glass Windows and Facades under Blast: Experiments, Methods and Current TrendsXihong Zhang, Chiara BedonGlass has been overwhelmingly used for windows and facades for modern constructions. Nevertheless, due to its relatively low tensile strength and mostly brittle behaviour, compared to other structural members, glass windows/facades are one of the most fragile components for a building envelop that are always associated with vast casualties in a blast incident. Several researches have been carried out to … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 24 Jul 2017 · 14,153 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSocial Protection Cash Transfers and Gendered Equality: An Analysis of Gendered Differences in Poverty Reduction and Income DistributionJulius OkelloThis research investigates key determinants of poverty reduction and income distribution in eastern Uganda's Teso sub-region. Regression analysis reveals significant negative coefficients for access to healthcare (β = -0.414, p = 0.029) and road infrastructure (β = -0.363, p = 0.014), indicating lower poverty levels in communities with better access. Employment (β = -2.8, p = 0.000) and income (β … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 17, Issue 1 · 5 Aug 2026 · 942 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsDeveloping the Concept of Methodological Support for Designing and Assessing the Efficiency of Information Protection Systems of Standard Information Systems Considering Their VulnerabilitiesIslam Alexandrovich Alexandrov, Andrey Victorovich Kirichek, Vladimir Zhanovich Kuklin et al.The Information Protection System (IPS) is an integral part of any Information System (IS). To develop an optimal IPS model at the earliest stages of the IS lifecycle, it is necessary to develop IS resource and threat models. This study is devoted to developing a specific model of IS resources, allowing a detailed description of the relationship between resources and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 19, Issue 11 · 19 Sep 2023 · 5,307 accessesView PDFCite
InvestigationOpen accessIn the keywordsSurvey of Websites and Web Application Security Threats Using Vulnerability AssessmentVincent Appiah, Michael Asante, Isaac Kofi Nti, Owusu Nyarko-BoatengNowadays information has become anasset to many institutions and as a result these institutions have become targets for people with malicious intents to attack these institutions. The web is now an important means of transacting business and without security, websites cannot thrive in today’s complex computer ecosystem as there are new threats emerging as old ones are being tackled. Vulnerability … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 10 · 27 Jan 2018 · 9,316 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsContamination Risk Evaluation of Groundwater in the Canton of Portoviejo-Ecuador, using Susceptibility Index and two Intrinsic Vulnerability ModelsSuhail SharadqahThe present study aims to investigate the applicability of DRASTIC, GOD and SI models in evaluating the groundwater vulnerability and risk of contamination in the Canton of Portoviejo, Ecuador. The groundwater vulnerability to contamination has been evaluated using DRASTIC and GOD models. Both models were able to classify the study area into different sectors of variable vulnerability. The coincidence of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 11 Feb 2017 · 7,511 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUnraveling the Mechanisms of Plant Structural Defenses against Insect PestsAroni Preya Biswas, Roksana Al Nafiu Insha, Md. Khairul Mazed et al.Plants employ a variety of physical, chemical, and genetic strategies to defend against herbivore attacks. These biochemical defense mechanisms are complex and dynamic, encompassing both direct and indirect responses. Defense-related chemicals, whether constitutive or induced by herbivore damage, significantly influence herbivore feeding behavior, growth, and survival. Plant defense systems impact herbivore nutrition, development, and survival, highlighting the importance of chemical … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 7 Jan 2025 · 5,793 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWomen and Girls with Disabilities and Intersectionality: A Poststructuralist Analysis of Ethiopian Social Protection Policy (2014)Yilikal Muche EngidaSocial protection policies are designed to eliminate poverty and vulnerability to risk by promoting employment opportunities and strengthening society to protect against man-made and natural hazards. Due to traditional views and patriarchal ideas of society towards women, women and girls with disabilities are excluded from sharing the benefits. Ethiopia, with a population of 110.1 million, is the second most populous … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 1 · 6 Jul 2023 · 6,737 accessesView PDFCite
