Investigation of Stray Current from DC Subway System in Korea. Abstract The stray current from DC subway system in Korea has affected the cathodic protection (CP) design of the buried pipelines adjacent to the railroads. Among various mitigation methods, the drainage bond method either of polarized type or of forced type was widely adopted by the pipeline engineers. However, this method suffers disadvantages about increased interference to other pipelines adjacent to the railroad as well as electrolytic corrosion of the rail components. In order to overcome this problem, an alternative suitable stray current mitigation method is under design by our group. As a quantitative analysis of the p…

A free-ranging dog is a dog that is not confined to a yard or house. Free-ranging dogs include street dogs, village dogs, stray dogs, feral dogs, etc., and may be owned or unowned.

It is estimated that there are about 62 million free-ranging dogs in India. In Western countries free-ranging dogs are rare; in Europe they are primarily found in parts of Eastern Europe, and, to a lesser extent, in parts of Southern Europe. Free-ranging dogs survive by adapting to their environment, including scavenging through uncollected…
