Sentence examples for fall loading from inspiring English sources

Several authors (RB, CM, TW) of this study participated in this workshop to separately prepare building vulnerability models for ash fall loading, which were included in 2015 for the first time in the Global Assessment Report.

Notwithstanding the potential limitations of some empirical data in constraining vulnerability functions, efforts are required to improve our estimates of building damage under ash fall loading through the collection of damage data, experimental testing and perhaps theoretical failure analysis.

Each plot shows the simulated influence of eruption flux to plume height relationships (by assuming the standard relationship of Sparks et al, 1997 for Santorini Strong or the revised Woodhouse et al, 2013 relationship that accounts for wind conditions on weak plume for Santorini Weak) and aggregation (by increasing grain sizes) on ash fall loading.

This approach does not 'double count' losses incurred from each hazard, but a limitation is that it does not consider conditional vulnerabilities from the sequence of volcanic hazard events (e.g., buildings weakened, but not destroyed, by PDC impact which are then subjected to tephra fall loading).

For a precise assessment of hip fracture risk during the single-leg stance and the sideways fall, loading and boundary conditions simulating the single-leg stance and the sideways fall configurations are required in the FE model.

Ash fall load thresholds were chosen that approximately related to key hazardous impacts.

The other trauma was caused by a falling loading ramp on a lorry also resulting in laceration to the forehead and unconsciousness.

Had it won, it would have had to cope with rising fuel costs and falling load factors, not to mention huge debt.

The frictional effects, random disturbance, carrying and falling load effects were added to the dynamics model.

Quantification results are presented for the risk of contact with collapsing, overturning cranes and falling loads from cranes.

A logical model for quantifying occupational risk in case of collapsing or overturning cranes, falling loads or falling objects struck by cranes developed under the Workgroup Occupational Risk Model (WORM) project is presented.
