Computationally efficient fragility assessment using equivalent elastic limit state and Bayesian updating

COMPUTERS & STRUCTURES, 197, 1–11.

TL;DR: A Bayesian approach is incorporated into the proposed methodology for increasing the accuracy of seismic fragilities in the case of tuned or nearly tuned primary-secondary systems and the effect of non-classical damping. (via Semantic Scholar)

Clean cooking and the SDGs: Integrated analytical approaches to guide energy interventions for health and environment goals

ENERGY FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT, 42, 152–159.

By: J. Rosenthal*, A. Quinn*, A. Grieshop n, A. Pillarisetti* & R. Glass*

TL;DR: This model suggests that cookstove programs using LPG stoves and fuel will yield greater reductions in both Disability Adjusted Life Years and Global Warming Commitment in these countries than those using improved biomass stoves. (via Semantic Scholar)

2018 journal article

Biofilms in Full-Scale Drinking Water Ozone Contactors Contribute Viable Bacteria to Ozonated Water

ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY, 52(5), 2618–2628.

By: N. Kotlarz*, N. Rockey*, T. Olson*, S. Haig*, L. Sanford, J. LiPuma*, L. Raskin*

MeSH headings : Bacteria; Biofilms; Drinking Water; Ozone; Water Softening
TL;DR: The results implicate microbial detachment from biofilms on contactor surfaces, and from biomass present within lime softening sediments in a hydraulic dead zone, as a possible reason for increasing cell concentrations in water samples from sequential ozone chambers, as well as the effluent from ozone contactors being treated further in biologically active filters and bacteria in ozonated water continuously seed filter microbial communities.

Probabilistic risk assessment based model validation method using Bayesian network

RELIABILITY ENGINEERING & SYSTEM SAFETY, 169, 380–393.

By: S. Kwag n, A. Gupta n & N. Dinh n

TL;DR: A new approach to validation is presented in this paper that uses a probabilistic index as a degree of validation and propagates it through the system using the performance-based Probabilistic risk assessment (PRA) framework, which utilizes the power of Bayesian statistic.
