LEAD EXPOSURE IN NUNAVIK: FROM RESEARCH TO ACTION

Lead exposure in Nunavik: from research to action

Background.In 1999, the Government of Canada regulated the Serving Forks use of lead shot for hunting.Concurrently, the Nunavik Regional Board of Health and Social Services (NRBHSS) was informed of the results of an isotope study that pointed to lead ammunition as a likely source of lead exposure in Nunavik.Rapidly thereafter, a coalition for the b

Numerical Parameter Analysis of High-Strength Steel Frame with Y-Eccentric Brace Using Variable Replaceable Link

The present study proposes a variable replaceable link for high-strength steel frames with Y-eccentric braces Pen Holder designed to effectively dissipate earthquake energy by confining plastic deformation to its central zone.This unique feature allows for easy post-earthquake recovery or replacement.To investigate the seismic performance of such s
