  • The Use of Underground Metro Stations and Tunnels As Protective Structures in Case of Nuclear Emergencies
    Journal of Environmental Science and Engineering B 5 (2016) 35-56 doi:10.17265/2162-5263/2016.01.005 D DAVID PUBLISHING The Use of Underground Metro Stations and Tunnels as Protective Structures in Case of Nuclear Emergencies Mohamed Farahat Department of Siting and Environment, Egyptian Nuclear and Radiological Regulatory Authority, Cairo 11787, Egypt Abstract: This paper discusses the use of Underground Metro stations and tunnels as protective structures in case of nuclear emergencies. Six lines are taken as a case study to investigate the use of their underground stations and tunnels. The research explains the structural design of Underground Metro and the necessary needs for hidden people inside Underground Metro used as shelters. The research investigates the calculations of the number of hidden persons inside Underground Metro used as shelters. A field study has been conducted to an Underground Metro station to determine the peaceful use and the emergency use of all basements of the station. Also, the field study aims to determine the existing spaces and the needed spaces of the Underground Metro station to dual—used as a nuclear shelter. Three Underground Metro stations have been selected and a field study has been conducted to determine the usages of these basements, the planning, general and design features for each one of them, and whether they can be used as protective structures for citizens in emergencies. These basements were compared for their protective factors. Also, their capacities for sheltering were calculated. Key words: Underground Metro, stations and tunnels, protective structures, nuclear shelters, nuclear emergencies. 1.

Our goal is to understand and promote refugee integration by drawing on the knowledge and perspective of refugees and locals to develop deeper understanding of the towns in which they live. The project was conceived and is led by Karen Jacobsen. It is based at the Feinstein International Center at Tufts University and funded by the Henry J. Leir Foundation. Our goals are twofold Our first long-term goal is to build a theory of integration form the ground up by compiling a global database of case studies and reports to help us analyze and understand the process of immigrant/refugee integration.

  • Activities of Photochemistry in Egypt
    Proc. Indian Acad. Sci. (Chem. Sci.), Vol. 104, No. 2, April 1992, pp. 81-87. Printed in India. Activities of photochemistry in Egypt S E MORSI 1 and M S A ABDEL-MOTTALEB2. 'Supreme Council of Universities, Cairo University, Giza, Egypt 2Department of Chemistry, Faculty of Science, Ain Shams University, Abbassia, Cairo, Egypt Abstract. Several research activities in the different topics of photochemistry, photophysics and photobiology are being conducted. Trends of research in Egyptian institutions include - (A) Preparative organic photochemistry. Studies on the photolysis of different organic compounds have been carried out. Moreover, research work is aimed at investigating the utilization of solar energy in the photooxidation of inexpensive organic compounds to produce precious ones of pharmaceutical interest. (B) Research work is performed in different areas related to fluorescence spectrometry and laser dyes. The first field involves studies on the essential photophysical properties of some groups of electron-donor-acceptor (EDA) molecules like the styrylcyanine type and coumarins. Currently, research is pursued along the following lines: (1) Solvatochromism and photochromism of these dyes with special reference to cis-trans quantum yield determination. (2) Molecular aggregation of functionalized suffactant cyanines and their fluorescence quenching. (3) The analytical use of these dyes and others as fluorescent probes for various systems of biological and industrial importance. Another important field of research is the field of photochemical and emission characteristics of new laser dyes of the diolefinic type and pyrazinyl Scliiff-base derivatives. Research work also includes photochemical studies on some polymeric materials and photoconductivity. Keywords. Activities of photochemistry; Schiff-base derivatives; polymeric materials.

    School of Global Affairs and Public Policy Paper No. 3 / September 2012 Remittances to Transit Countries: The impact on Sudanese refugee livelihoods in Cairo Karen Jacobsen, Tufts University Maysa Ayoub & Alice Johnson, The American University in Cairo THE CENTER FOR MIGRATION AND REFUGEE STUDIES In collaboration with FEINSTEIN INTERNATIONAL CENTER 1 THE CENTER FOR MIGRATION AND REFUGEE STUDIES The Center for Migration and Refugee Studies (CMRS) is an interdisciplinary center of The American University in Cairo (AUC). Situated at the heart of the Middle East and North Africa, it aims at furthering the scientific knowledge of the large, long-standing and more recent, refugee and migration movements witnessed in this region. But it also is concerned with questions of refugees and migration in the international system as a whole, both at the theoretical and practical levels. CMRS functions include instruction, research, training and outreach. It offers a Master of Arts in migration and refugee studies and a graduate diploma in forced migration and refugee studies working with other AUC departments to offer diversified courses to its students. Its research bears on issues of interest to the region and beyond. In carrying it out, it collaborates with reputable regional and international academic institutions. The training activities CMRS organizes are attended by researchers, policy makers, bureaucrats and civil society activists from a great number of countries. It also provides tailor-made training programs on demand. CMRS outreach involves working with its environment, disseminating knowledge and sensitization to refugee and migration issues. It also provides services to the refugee community in Cairo and transfers its expertise in this respect to other international institutions.

Historic Parks in the Face of Change: The Merryland Park, Cairo, Egypt Shetawy A.1 and Dief-Allah D.2 1 2Ain Shams University, Department of Planning and Urban Design 1 El-Sarayat Street, Abbassia, Cairo 11517, Egypt e-mail: [email protected] 2Ain Shams University, Department of Planning and Urban Design 1 El-Sarayat Street, Abbassia, Cairo 11517, Egypt e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: Tracing the evolution in the conceptual frameworks of Conservation theory, the domains of conservation have dramatically changed since Athens Charter 1931. It has become more diverse and inclusive. Starting with the concepts of historic, artistic and archaeological monuments, the domains expand to include, among many other, historic gardens. Moreover, contemporary trends of Conservation theory also expand to include new dimensions as cultural, social, economic, spiritual, sentimental and symbolic values. This has resulted in the emergence of culturalisation of heritage trend and the consequent introduction of new concepts as cultural landscape, urban environmental structures and intangible heritage. Historic parks and Gardens contribute to the setting of historic buildings and are valued as ‘works of art’. They are also valued for their horticultural interest and association with a notable person or event. It amplifies, in many cases, community identity and belonging. In the face of economic, social and political change; Egypt is struggling as any other developing country to attain the balance between development and urban transformation on one hand, and holding on to its local values, and heritage on the other hand.
