E. Seetha Ram. He said he would like to translate his former teacher’s book with the help of his young students in the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of Tokyo. He asked me to recruit the students, and he promised to proofread their translations. Although the book was written simply, its 400 pages cover a wide range of infrastructure topics from history to mathematical analysis. Although it seemed quite difficult to complete, amazingly, as many as 11 students raised their hands. With the help of the coauthors, their preliminary translation was finally completed in 9 months by the end of September 2018. We would like to thank Naoto Yokozawa, in charge of Chapter 6, who was the first to complete a massive chapter in a month; also to Aoi Watanabe, who worked on parts of Chapter 2 while on a short stay in New Zealand; to Kotaro Hamada, in charge of the Preface and parts of Chapters 2 and 3, who took great care in his work and handled sections others were unable to complete; to Rika Idei, in charge of Chapter 7, who advised us using her professional experience and completed her parts while working on her doctoral thesis; to Pei Yuxiang, in charge of Chapter 1, who is Chinese but surmounted the challenge of the most cultural and historical chapter; to Yoko Ito, in charge of Chapter 4, who checked each sentence carefully with the coauthor, Atsushi Hasegawa; and to Ryo Ito, in charge of Chapter 3, who translated the most difficult parts full of Japanese technical terms.

  • Assessing Seismic Risk in Ethiopia
    www.gsdrc.org [email protected] Helpdesk Research Report Assessing seismic risk in Ethiopia Siân Herbert 20.01.2013 Question Identify data on, or ways to assess, seismic risk in Ethiopia. Where possible, identify what the data suggests about the absolute levels of risk, the relative levels of risk compared to other countries, and which populations are particularly vulnerable.1 Contents 1. Overview 2. Seismic risk 3. Seismic hazard 4. Vulnerable populations in Ethiopia 5. Suggested websites 6. Additional references 1. Overview This report identifies data, literature and maps on seismic risk in Ethiopia. In this report seismic risk, as a concept, is understood to be the product of seismic hazard (the probability of harmful seismic phenomena) and seismic vulnerability (the degree of loss from seismic phenomena – human and economic). 2 There is limited literature available in this area. Abeye (2012) argues that an updated seismic hazard map of Africa is long overdue. In a case study analysis of the Ethiopian capital Addis Ababa, a 1999 1 This is the second GSDRC query examining seismic risk in East Africa, the first paper focussed on Kenya.

  • Bubbles, Manias and Market Failures
    7 February 2019 Bubbles, Manias and Market Failures PROFESSOR D’MARIS COFFMAN transcribed by Mr Imad Uddin Ahmed Thank you all, it’s a great honour to be here. This is actually my second time lecturing in this hall. I was first here about 5 years ago in 2013 when I was talking about something else entirely. I’m thrilled to be back, and I would like to thank Michael Mainelli, who is not here, for in fact convincing me to do this for a second time. Tonight, I’ll talk about bubbles, manias and market failures and particularly about the unintended consequences of regulatory responses to these events. And I think when you begin talking about the subject, it’s almost imperative that you start with Tulipmania which is the paradigmatic early-modern financial crisis. Some of you may recognise this wonderful print from 1637/38 by Peter Nolpe which shows a fool’s cap in which people are playing a gambling game that was played in the inns near the flower markets. It was a kind of auction game, bit of a spread-betting game in which they bid up the price of tulips. And this print shows the devastation that Tulipmania was supposed to have caused to the morals and the economic welfare of the Dutch republic. Now most of when we actually see copies of this print, don’t see the copies from the 1636-37 but rather recycled copies from the 1720s in a much different context. We’ll talk in a moment about that context.

The study privileges the role of process as a theoretical basis for exploring the dynamics of the production and transformation of urban space.

This thesis addresses two research questions, asking how journalists’ practices are enabled and constrained in the context of South Sudan, and what normative tensions arise during their practices of journalism. To these questions, this thesis develops three arguments.

  • 3.3 Proposed Improvement Measures for Delhi Metro Intermodal Function
    Strengthening Intermodal Transfer Functions of Urban Railway Systems 3.3 Proposed Improvement Measures for Delhi Metro Intermodal Function The selected four (4) Delhi Metro stations, representing four (4) typical groups, were studied to identify possible directions of the improvement of their intermodal transfer functions/systems as follows. 3.3.1 Suburban – Regional Center Station (Shahdara Station) There are 24 stations that can be categorized as “Suburban–regional center stations”. Among them, Shahdara Station is selected as a representative of this station type, that is, a station located in the regional center in suburban areas. This station requires comprehensive development with an integrated bus terminal. (1) Current Issues Identified from the Survey of Existing Conditions On observing the usage of the station plaza, it is found that transfer between train and bus is inconvenient. The bus station is located away from the station, because private car parking areas and motorcycle parking areas are located on both sides of the pedestrian entrance in the front of the station. The bus terminal for feeder mini-bus is not build, so the passengers use road side of the arterial road for loading and unloading. These boarding activities create an obstacle of drive lanes that become a course of traffic congestions during rush hours. Rickshaws, which are used by many passengers, stay on the road spaces around the station. (2) Proposed Measures for the Improvement of the Shahdara Station Physical problems and identified planning issues against a convenient transfer system are summarized in Table 3.3.1. This table also indicates proposed ideas on how to improve the station.
