Numerical Evaluation of Ultrasonic Detection of Solid Occlusions in CSP Molten Salt Piping by Raffaele Dragonetti, Rosario Aniello Romano, Elio Di Giulio

“…Numerical analyses revealed that the energy of ultrasonic signals transmitted from the source and captured by the receiver can be used to quantify the energy reflected and scattered by solid inclusions and to statistically determine their spatial distribution within the piping. The study highlights the potential of detecting solid occlusions through statistical analysis of ultrasonic signals. …”

The safe development paradox of the United States regulatory floodplain. by Georgina M Sanchez, Margaret A Lawrimore, Anna Petrasova, John B Vogler, Elyssa L Collins, Vaclav Petras, Truffaut Harper, Emma J Butzler, Ross K Meentemeyer

“…We posit that the regulatory 100-year floodplain presents a "safe development paradox", whereby attempts to reduce flood risk paradoxically intensifies it by promoting development in and near flood-prone areas. We conducted the first comprehensive national assessment of historical and future development patterns related to the regulatory 100-year floodplain, examining the spatial distribution of developed land within increasingly distant 250-m zones from floodplain boundaries. …”
