FLOOD CONTROL PROGRAMME IN BANGLADESH

Bangladesh locates in lower reach of Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghma, Bengal delta. Bangladesh is a land of rivers and heavy monsoon rains. Every year during monsoon period (May-September)the country floods of verying magnitude, it causes damages to crops, properties, infrastructures, etc. and ultimately affects the economy development of the country. Banglandesh flood has some features given below: 1. The excessive rainfall over the vast catchment area of the river is the main cause of flood in Bangladesh, but 90% of the flood carried by rivers come from outside the country, i.e. regional countries, India, Nepal,

Governance of tuberculosis control programme in Nigeria

Background:The role of governance in strengthening tuberculosis(TB)control has received little research attention.This review provides evidence of how institutional designs and organisational practices influence implementation of the national TB control programme(NTP)in Nigeria.Main text:We conducted a scoping review using a five-stage framework to review published and grey literature in English,on implementation of Nigeria's NTP and identified themes related to governance using a health system governance framework.We included articles,of all study designs and methods,which described or analysed the processes of implementing TB control based on relevance to the research question.The review shows a dearth of studies which examined the role of governance in TB control in Nigeria.Although costed plans and policy coordination framework exist,public spending on TB control is low.While stakeholders'involvement in TB control is increasing,institutional capacity is limited,especially in the private sector.TB-specific legislation is absent.Deployment and transfer of staff to the NTP are not transparent.Health workers are not transparent in communicating service entitlements to users.Despite existence of supportive policies,integration of TB control into the community and general health services have been weak.Willingness to pay for TB services is high,however,transaction cost and stigma among patients limit equity.Effectiveness and efficiency of the NTP was hindered by inadequate human resources,dilapidated service delivery infrastructure and weak drug supply system.Despite adhering to standardized recording and reporting format,regular monitoring and evaluation,revision of reporting formats,and electronic data management system,TB surveillance system was found to be weak.Delay in TB diagnosis and initiation of care,poor staff attitude to patients,lack of privacy,poor management of drug reactions and absence of infection control measures breach ethical standards for TB care.Conclusions:This scoping review of governance of TB control in Nigeria highlights two main issues.Governance for strengthening TB control programmes in low-resource,high TB burden settings like Nigeria,is imperative.Secondly,there is a need for empirical studies involving detailed analysis of different dimensions of governance of TB control.

Programmable Logic Controller Block Monitoring System for Memory Attack Defense in Industrial Control Systems

Cyberattacks targeting industrial control systems(ICS)are becoming more sophisticated and advanced than in the past.A programmable logic controller(PLC),a core component of ICS,controls and monitors sensors and actuators in the field.However,PLC has memory attack threats such as program injection and manipulation,which has long been a major target for attackers,and it is important to detect these attacks for ICS security.To detect PLC memory attacks,a security system is required to acquire and monitor PLC memory directly.In addition,the performance impact of the security system on the PLC makes it difficult to apply to the ICS.To address these challenges,this paper proposes a system to detect PLC memory attacks by continuously acquiring and monitoring PLC memory.The proposed system detects PLC memory attacks by acquiring the program blocks and block information directly from the same layer as the PLC and then comparing them in bytes with previous data.Experiments with Siemens S7-300 and S7-400 PLC were conducted to evaluate the PLC memory detection performance and performance impact on PLC.The experimental results demonstrate that the proposed system detects all malicious organization block(OB)injection and data block(DB)manipulation,and the increment of PLC cycle time,the impact on PLC performance,was less than 1 ms.The proposed system detects PLC memory attacks with a simpler detection method than earlier studies.Furthermore,the proposed system can be applied to ICS with a small performance impact on PLC.

The Knee Wear Prediction of UHMWPE Tibial Insert Using VIPRO Platform

The failure mechanism was postulated as a combination of the high level of loading during normal activities and a non-conforming contact mechanism between the femoral condyles and the tibial insert. The question that arises is： could be this phenomenon evaluated quantitatively a priori, e.g., could be the failure due to delamination wear predicted？ In order to do some finite element simulations were performed to dynamically determinate the contact area and contact pressure for three different activities. The results obtained using VIPRO platform lead to the conclusion that many clinically reported failures of the tibial tray are caused by the adhesive and fatigue wear.
