This book describes in detail a research project dedicated to liquid-particle flow using ultrasound techniques. The project consists of theoretical, experimental, data science, finite element modeling, mechanical design and project management components. The objective of the project was to develop the ultrasonic methodology for measurement and characterization of liquid flow containing solid particles, in online (real-time) measurement conditions. The project consists of primary and complementary studies. The primary studies comprise development of the ultrasonic methodology for the simultaneous measurement of the average particle concentration and flow speed parameters. The developed methodology is based on the ultrasonic attenuation spectroscopy and the sound speed measurement methods, supported by data science programs. The complementary studies include acoustic streaming, designing a small-scale rotational test cell with an annular flow channel, testing it for various applications

Drawing on various branches of the economic sciences - including rational choice and game theory, and institutional and behavioural economics - this book goes beyond conventional methods of EU legal scholarship to expand our understanding of EU law and its effects. This book devotes attention to EU Treaties and secondary law, as well as their adjudicative interpretation, while using economic theory to explain their core legal principles such as conferral, subsidiarity, and mutual

The assessment of risk is complex and often controversial. It is derived from the existence of a hazard, and it is characterized by the uncertainty of possible undesirable events and their outcomes. Few outcomes are as undesirable as nuclear war and nuclear terrorism.

The nature of the concerns and the risk analysis methods used to evaluate them have evolved considerably over time. At the request of the Department of Defense, Risk Analysis Methods for Nuclear War and Nuclear Terrorism discusses risks, explores the risk assessment literature, highlights the strengths and weaknesses of risk assessment approaches, and discusses some publicly available assumptions that underpin U.S. security strategies, all in the context of nuclear war and nuclear terrorism.

Contemporary scientific medicine is a new modern medicine-one shaped by new disease epidemics, new norms of evidence, and the new sciences of epidemiology. Jonathan Fuller provides a philosophical treatment of this new modern medicine, an epidemiological medicine that has dominated healthcare for decades. Epidemiological medicine is a model of medicine calibrated to the management of epidemic noncommunicable diseases such as cancers and chronic conditions, reliant on evidence from epidemiological studies such as clinical trials and infused with epidemiological thinking. The New Modern Medicine utilizes resources from the philosophy of science and the philosophy of medicine to examine disease and evidence in the new modern medicine, particularly problems brought about by the twentieth century integration of medicine with epidemiology. Fuller explores topics such as the nature and evolution of modern scientific medicine, theories of contagion and cancer, the causation and classification
