Vulnerability assessment for elements at risk is an important component in the framework of risk assessment. Mountain torrents: Quantifying vulnerability and assessing uncertainties Further efforts are discussed for improving torrent hazard mapping and prediction.

The results are useful for engineering planning support and resource protection in the Hexi Corridor. The torrent hazard map shows that there is high potential torrent hazard in the central and southeastern Hexi Corridor.

The results show that the capability of the proposed method is satisfactory. A torrent hazard map for the Hexi Corridor was generated by integrating the driving factors of mountain torrent disasters including precipitation, terrain, flow concentration processes, and the vegetation fraction. In this study, an evidential reasoning approach based on Dempster-Shafer theory is proposed for mapping mountain torrent hazards in the Hexi Corridor. The frequent torrent disasters greatly impact the security of infrastructure and human safety. Many important national engineering projects pass through the corridor, such as highways, railways, and the West-to-East Gas Pipeline. The Hexi Corridor is an important part of the Silk Road Economic Belt and a crucial channel for westward development in China. Ran, Youhua Liu, Jinpeng Tian, Feng Wang, Dekai Mapping mountain torrent hazards in the Hexi Corridor using an evidential reasoning approach I got to know Wolfgang Kummer very well and appreciate his human qualities during his long attachment to CERN, in particular when he served as president of the CERN Council, the highest decision taking authority of this international research centre, from 1985 to 1987 falling into my term as Director-Generalâ€¦ Nevertheless I admired him for not only being attached to fundamental and abstract problems like quantum field theory, quantum gravity or black holes, but for his interest in down to earth questions like electron-proton scattering or the toponium mass. As an experimentalist I am not sufficiently knowledgeable to evaluate his contributions to theoretical physics - this will certainly be done by more competent scientists. Wolfgang Kummer was not only a great theorist but also a man with a noble spirit and extensive education, based on a fascinating long-term Austrian cultural tradition. Privat zeigte sich Pauli als bissiger und humorvoller Mensc gleichermaÃŸen, und sein Hang zur Psychoanalyse lÃ¤sst ihn Ã¼berdies als interessante PersÃ¶nlichkeit erscheinen.

DarÃ¼ber hinaus legte er den Grundstein fÃ¼r die Quantenfeldtheorie. Erst das von ihm entdeckte AusschlieÃŸungsprinzip erklÃ¤rt den Aufbau des Periodensystems der Elemente. Wolfgang Pauli gehÃ¶rt zu den bedeutendsten Physikern des 20.
