This chapter examines the scientific diaspora option within the migration and development nexus in the context of skilled migration from the Republic of Moldova. Migration has been a significant component of the transition process in Eastern Europe and Mol ...
The internal rate of return (IRR) is generally considered inferior to the net present value (NPV) as a tool for evaluating and ranking projects, despite its inherently useful comparability to the cost of capital and the return of other investment opportuni ...
Although rock instabilities constitute a threat to human lives and settlements all over the world, methodologies for assessing and zoning rockfall hazards for urban development planning are far from being standardised. After presentation of the general bac ...
Numerical models of snow avalanches propagation have acquired a central role among decision tools for avalanche protection engineering. Nevertheless, the systematic implementation of these models still faces a number of difficulties including the precise e ...
Areas/Paper type – 08. Integration of renewable energy in the built environment, Methodology Background – Today’s simulation technology in engineering and architecture are very impressive. As a result technology developers have a good idea of the resulting ...
The possibility to customize Simplex coding for long range Brillouin Optical Time Domain Analysis is demonstrated by “colouring” the sequences in the frequency domain. The coding gain is identical to the traditional intensity-modulated Simplex code, though ...

We study the pricing and hedging of contingent claims that are subject to Event Risk which we define as rare and unpredictable events whose occurrence may be correlated to, but cannot be hedged perfectly with standard marketed instruments. The super-replic ...
The impact of Raman amplification and Simplex coding is studied in combination with differential pulse-width pair Brillouin optical time-domain analysis (DPP-BOTDA) to achieve sub-meter spatial resolution over very long sensing distances. An optimization o ...
The need to maximise the lifetime of existing road bridges necessitates clear and efficient tools for engineers to perform structural safety verifications based on monitored data. This study develops methodologies for ultimate limit safety (ULS) verificati ...
