To explore the staged catastrophic evolution mechanism and failure process of bedding rock landslides under construction disturbance and rainfall conditions, we selected water content, displacement, strain, and soil stress as the study objects and carried out a model test. Combining the test phenomena, the following conclusions are drawn: first, bedding rock landslides have experienced three different stages of initial, constant velocity, and accelerated deformation affected by construction and rainfall factors. Then, the mode of bedding rock landslides is both sliding and traction sliding compound sliding mode. Finally, in the initial and constant deformation stages, the stress and strain values in the soil both increase slightly. In the accelerated deformation stage, the horizontal and vertical deformation at the slope foot increases sharply. Meanwhile, the strain value increases greatly, the stress decreases, and the stress in the slope increases significantly. Therefore, stress, strain, and displacement can be used as early warning indicators for staged disasters of bedding rock landslides.

Real-time monitoring and early warning have great significance in reducing/avoiding the consequences caused by landslides. The deep displacement-based monitoring method has been proven to be a suitable solution for landslide risk management. However, the early warning indicators based on the deep displacement method need to be fully understood. This paper reports on an investigation into early warning indicators and deformation monitoring of several natural landslides. A series of indicators using the profiles of the accumulative displacement, kinetic energy, and their rates against time for early warning are developed and calibrated by monitoring and analyzing a natural landslide. The early warning indicators are then applied to monitor and identify the different deformation stages of the Jinping County North Landslide and the Wendong Town Landslide.

Only recently have academicians and practitioners realized the importance of a systematic analysis of business failures. The authors develop a failure process model that can help managers to understand and predict failure. Causes and symptoms of failure are reviewed briefly as methods of analyzing failures. A parsimonious financial corporate failure model based on symptoms of failure (performance indicators) is developed and used to predict the business failure of retail establishments over the five-year period prior to the actual failure.

Abstract Canary structures being used as early warning indicators represent an important tool for condition and health monitoring of electronic components and systems. In this paper, printed circuit boards with canary structures based on SMD 2512 ceramic chip resistors with reduced solder pad sizes were studied. Focus of these investigations was set on thermo-mechanical and mechanical stresses caused by passive thermal cycling as well as by vibrational loads. For this purpose, experimental methods such as deformation analysis and accelerated ageing tests as well as finite element based methods were applied. In addition, an outlook on the implementation of these canary structures into dual inverter electronic control boards for electrical powertrain applications will be given.

The use of macro prudential instruments today gives rise to a major debate within the walls of central banks and other authorities in charge of financial stability. Contrary to micro prudential instruments, whose effects remain limited, macro prudential instruments are different in nature and can affect the stability of the financial system. By influencing the financial cycle and the financial structure of financial institutions, the use of such instruments should be conducted with great vigilance as well as macroeconomic and financial expertise. But the experiences of central banks in this area are sketchy, and only some emerging countries have experience using these types of instruments in different ways. This paper presents an analysis of instruments of macro prudential policy and attempts to empirically demonstrate that these instruments should be used only in specific economic and financial situations. Indeed, the results obtained, using modeling bivariate panel, confirm that these instruments are more effective when used to mitigate the euphoria of financial and economic cycles. In this sense, the output gap, describing the economic cycle, and the Z-score are the intermediate variables for the activation of capital instruments. Moreover, the liquidity ratio and changes in bank profitability are the two early warning indicators for activation of liquidity instruments.
