In the study "Tsunami evacuation simulation using multi-agent system: A case study of Wajima city, Ishikawa prefecture, Japan" the tsunami evacuation simulation was carried out in the port area of Wajima City, Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan. Twelve evacuation sites were established for approximately 12,000 evacuees. There were three types of agents: male, female and tourist, walking speeds were set for each type. As a result of the simulation, all agents completed the evacuation after 2028 seconds.

Ebook "The non-ergodic nature of internal conversion: An experimental and theoretical approach" investigates the transitions from one electronically excited state to another. Such processes - the fastest of events in chemistry - can be studied with femtosecond resolution, and Thomas S. Kuhlman approaches the question both with experimental and theoretical methods. His approach contributes to explain processes of high importance to all scientific fields concerned with the interaction between light and matter: the deactivation of the electronically excited states after excitation.

Ebook "Plant physiology" examines three ways plants respond to their changing environment. The first example can be found in all plants. Despite the extreme changes in weather, plants have to stay where they are and respond to whatever nature produces. Plants have the capacity to respond quickly and yet they can evolve in a single generation. The second example addresses how an individual leaf has to respond rapidly and repeatedly to maintain the proper balance of carbon dioxide (CO2) and water so that it can photosynthesize but not dry out.

Ebook "The Tunguska mystery (Astronomers' Universe)" is a dual one: to detail the nature and results of Tunguska investigations in the former USSR and present-day CIS, and to destroy two long-standing myths still held in the West. The first concerns alleged “final solutions” that have ostensibly been found in Russia or elsewhere. The second concerns the mistaken belief that there has been little or no progress in understanding the nature of the Tunguska phenomenon.

Ebook "Modern biogeochemistry: Environmental risk assessment" quantitative ecological risk assessment is widely used in different contexts, however very often without an understanding of the natural mechanisms that drive the processes of environmental and human risk. Its application is often accompanied by high uncertainty about risk values. On the other hand, the sustainability of modern technoecosystems is known because of their natural biogeochemical cycling that has been transformed to various extents by anthropogenic studies.

Lecture Intermediate accounting - Chapter 19: Share-based compensation and earnings per share. In this chapter we look at some common forms of compensation in which the amount of the compensation employees receive is tied to the market price of company stock. We will see that these share-based compensation plans-stock awards, stock options, and stock appreciation rights-create shareholders’ equity. The nature of this compensation will impact the way we calculate earnings per share, the topic of the second part of this chapter.
