Abstract (sommario):

The Line Clearance and Forestry Committee of the Pennsylvania Electric Association was formed in September 1984 to discuss, study, and review vegetation management research and practices for line clearance to improve electric reliability, operating economy and safety through the application of professional, arboricultural practices including tree pruning, herbicide use and other related activities. The committee consists of representatives from each of the major investor-owned electric utility companies operating and maintaining facilities within Pennsylvania. The objectives of the committee are to: 1) conduct informational activities to increase public understanding of vegetation management within electric line rights-of-way; 2) give the electric utility industry within Pennsylvania a single voice on matters of vegetation management; and 3) promote continual exchange of useful information between electric utilities within Pennsylvania.

Abstract (sommario):

The Pennsylvania Patient Safety Authority receives over 235,000 reports of medical error per year. Near miss and serious event reports of common and interesting problems are analysed to identify best practices for preventing harmful errors. Dissemination of this evidence-based information in the peer-reviewed Pennsylvania Patient Safety Advisory and presentations to medical staffs are not sufficient for adoption of best practices. Adoption of best practices has required working with institutions to identify local barriers to and incentives for adopting best practices and redesigning the delivery system to make desired behaviour easy and undesirable behaviour more difficult. Collaborations, where institutions can learn from the experiences of others, have show decreases in harmful events. The Pennsylvania Program to Prevent Wrong-Site Surgery is used as an example. Two collaborations to prevent wrong-site surgery have been completed, one with 30 institutions in eastern Pennsylvania and one with 19 in western Pennsylvania. The first collaboration achieved a 73% decrease in the rolling average of wrong-site events over 18 months. The second collaboration experienced no wrong-site operating room procedures over more than one year.

Abstract (sommario):

Interorganizational committees make decisions that apply to various organizations and their members are representatives of these organizations. This paper examines how interorganizational committee membersʼ perceptions of noninstrumental voice, instrumental voice, and decision outcome favorability are related to their committee identification, helping behavior, and perception of go-along-to-get-ahead political behavior. Questionnaire data from 197 Pennsylvania tax collection committee members were analyzed with regression. Of primary interest, perceived instrumental voice had a unique relationship with all three committeereferenced reactions, while perceived noninstrumental voice was not uniquely related to any of them. These results suggest that interorganizational committee members react to voice for instrumental reasons related to perceived influence over other members rather than noninstrumental reasons concerning their committee status.

Abstract (sommario):

The purpose of the study was to assess factors influencing the implementation of safety standards and guidelines in public secondary schools in Garissa Township Sub- County. This study examined School safety Sub-committee and physical Infrastructure on the implementation of safety standards and guidelines in public secondary schools in Garissa Township, Sub- County. Survey research design was used in this study with 10 principals and 320 teachers in Garissa Township Sub- County as the target population. The sample comprised of 106 respondents with 10 principals and 96 teachers. Questionnaires were used to collect data from teachers while interviews were used to collect data from Principals. Data from questionnaires was analyzed using pearson r while that from interview guide was analyzed using verbatim. The results were presented using tables with help of statistical package for the social sciences (SPSS) version 25. Using the Pearsoncorrelation, the study found out that the Safety Sub-committee (r= 0.280, p<0.01) was statistically significant and thus showed positive relationship with the implementation of safety standards and guidelines. The research also found out that 60 % of the principals interviewed revealed that school safety sub-committee was instituted but not active while 40% of safety sub-committee did not exist in the schools. Using the Pearson correlation school physical infrastructure (r=0.405, p<0.01),] The study showed a significant relationship between school physical infrastructure and the implementation of safety standards in Garissa Township Sub-County. In the interview conducted 80% of principals agreed that the existing infrastructure are regularly maintained and refurbished through the government funds in every financial year through the maintenanceand improvement funds. The study recommends that the Public Secondary Schools in Garissa Township Sub-County should review the implementation of School Safety standards and guidelines by ensuring that safety sub-committee is enhanced and ensure that there is sufficient and effective physical infrastructure in schools to promote conducive learning environment. The study would be beneficial toparents, schools and ministry of education officials in Kenya atlarge.

Abstract (sommario):

Therapeutic Recreation (TR) professionals are increasingly being asked to perform "other related duties" beyond the traditional scope of their practice. This article presents a pilot study of TR practitioners in Pennsylvania designed to determine the nature of these other duties and respondents' perceptions of their impact. Findings suggest that professionals, on average, spend twenty percent of their work time on "other related duties." Specific duties include tasks in the areas of Activities of Daily Living (ADLs), agency-wide events, committee service, general duties, education/treatment, safety, and administrative duties. Respondents generally viewed these duties as making a positive impact on their job experience in a variety of contexts. The article concludes with implications for further research and for curriculum revision.

Abstract (sommario):

Physical activity is associated with many health benefits to include weight management, lower risk for chronic diseases, and improved mental health and self esteem. The built environment has been linked to lower physical activity levels and overweight and obesity in children living in low income communities but the exact causes need further investigation. The purpose of this quantitative, cross sectional study was to examine the association between parents' perception of safety and body mass index (BMI) percentile and children's physical activity/ inactivity levels and children's BMI as measured by the National Survey of Children's Health (2011/12 NSCH). The sample consisted of low income African American and Hispanic parents and their children between the ages of 6 to 17 (n=109) who live in Pennsylvania. The study used social ecological theory as the theoretical framework. Data analysis included descriptive analysis and Chi square analysis of variables related to safety, physical activity and children's BMI percentile. The results indicated a strong negative correlation of Hispanic parent's perception of safety and their children's BMI percentile, and a moderately negative correlation of African American parents' perception of safety and their children. In addition, a strong negative correlation of Hispanic parent's perception of vandalism and their children's BMI percentile was found. The study contributes to social change by increasing awareness of public health policy makers and officials that parental concerns for safety and vandalism should be considered in the creation of policies geared at reducing unsafe aspects of the community, the design of educational programs for parents and children, and alterations within communities to improve health.

Abstract (sommario):

Deemed the “broad safety net approach,” reformation of statutory law Pennsylvania Act 126 of 2012, increased the education and training requirements for mandated reporters with the intentions to increase the number of children identified as abused and neglected. The purpose of this quantitative correlation study is to examine data from the Pennsylvania Department of Human Services to determine if Act 126 of 2012 improved child safety outcomes. Child cognitive development theory, normative social conformity theory, and public outrage and public policy reform theory were used as the theoretical foundation of study. Participants included Pennsylvania Educators and Rereported Child Abuse referrals from years 2009 to 2016. Eight reporting years made up the sample size and was divided into two groups. All five research questions were answered by the results of the study. First, via two independent t-Test analysis, the researcher determined neither total PEG referrals nor substantiated PEG referrals were affected. Next, there was a significant main effect of Act 126 of 2012 on unsubstantiated PRAR referrals with an inverse correlation between educator-generated referrals and substantiation rates. Finally, a statistically significant main effect existed between Child age which projected Child Protective Services outcomes. In short, Pennsylvania educators reported more school-aged children than their younger and older counterparts which were correlated with educator-generated referral rates. However, the relationship was negative. Hence, Act 126 of 2012 was not sufficient and did not achieve the expected results. Educators produced high quantity low-quality referrals. These results are significant since both Children and Youth Services, and Pennsylvania lawmakers rely on educators as the front line of defense in child safety. The changes to Act 126 of 2012 were not sufficient to improve Child Protective Services outcomes for children. The implications of the study are severe due to a school-to-child protective services pipeline increasing child and family contact with Pennsylvania’s Children and Youth Services without improved outcomes. Recommendations for future research include repeating the study using disaggregated data from the National Child Abuse use and Neglect Data Systems’ (NCANDS) Child-File level data held at the national archives, Cornell University, New York.

Abstract (sommario):

Louis-Antoine Léon de Saint-Just (1767-1794) was a revolutionary, a statesman, and a political philosopher, yet it is largely only as a revolutionary that he is remembered. As a political person who occupied these three different but overlapping roles, Saint-Just is ideal as the subject and center of a study of actualization, the taking of political ideals into reality. Saint-Just’s political philosophy was that of an idealist, and yet he, by force of circumstance, ability, and audacity, had the opportunity in his short life to attempt to establish and put into practice his political ideals. In his work as a political person Saint-Just created templates for the understanding of the relationship between political theory and political action. Saint-Just’s political theory is examined in relation to his political action, using the concepts of ‘the natural’, ‘the civil’, ‘the social’ and ‘the political’, concepts which are central in Saint-Just’s political philosophy. Saint-Just’s formulations of these concepts, concepts which have also been central to the history of political philosophy, and his understanding of the relations between these concepts, helps to establish him as a political philosopher of some importance, as does the theory and practice approach to politics which his attempts demanded and which his political life demonstrated. In Saint-Just’s function as political philosopher the thesis finds the theoretical element of politics, which becomes redefined in its interaction with Saint-Just’s other functions as statesman and revolutionary, the latter two of which correspond roughly to practice and exigency. As a theorist who is also a statesman in a context of exigency, or revolution, Saint-Just’s political life is a constantly rearranged juxtaposition of theory, practice, and revolution, albeit one which never loses it essential ties to its philosophical base, even in the hours of greatest emergency. Such dedication to a philosophical base, one which refuses to dispense with political philosophy, demonstrates a new conception of political philosophy for the modern world, fills in elements of a theory of revolution as a phenomenon of both theory and action, and provides a contained case for examination of political philosophy and political action, questioning their disunity.

Abstract (sommario):

Speaking before a Congressional committee on November 27, 1970, J. Edgar Hoover falsely claimed that a group of Catholic pacifists, including well known priests, brothers Philip and Daniel Berrigan, were planning an imminent attack on Washington, DC that included bombings and the kidnapping of a government official (later identified as Henry Kissinger). This chapter explains how Hoover’s outrageous accusation backfired, leading to a decline in the FBI’s public image. Other events in early 1971 also undermined the FBI’s credibility: the Weather Underground’s bombing of the US Capitol on March 1, 1971, which highlighted the bureau’s inability to thwart the group; and a break-in at an FBI office in Media, Pennsylvania that resulted in the first public revelations of the bureau’s mass domestic surveillance and counterintelligence programs (COINTELPRO).

Abstract (sommario):

This chapter discusses how Americans were at open war with British forces, while claiming to be formally loyal to the king. Persons who aided the British could not be tried for treason in a court of law, so Pennsylvania employed committees of safety to conduct trials of disloyal persons. At the county level, committees punished primarily verbal offenses, but the state committee in Philadelphia heard cases of actual disloyalty. The persons convicted were imprisoned on charges of “high treason.” These ad hoc and legally questionable detentions were an impetus for the Declaration of Independence, which put the punishment of traitors on a sounder footing. For their part, British efforts to punish disloyal Americans all faltered and the suspension of habeas corpus permitted American prisoners to be effectively treated as prisoners of war.

Abstract By spring 1793, as France edged toward the Terror, even Tom Paine’s patience with free speech began wearing thin. In a letter to Georges Danton, deputy to the French National Convention and founding member of the Committee of Public Safety, Paine expressed his alarm about the relentless insults and slander plaguing revolutionary politics. A deputy himself, Paine urged Danton to take repressive measures. “Calumny,” this champion of civil liberties insisted, “is a species of treachery that ought to be punished as well as any other kind of treachery.”

Abstract (sommario):

This chapter examines the national reaction to Robespierre’s proclamation of 18 Prairial, using evidence from national, regional and local archives and other sources, such as local newspapers. It also looks at the large body of evidence from both formal responses from official bodies and the considerable number of individual communications sent to the Convention, the Committee of Public Safety and the Committee of Public Education. It shows how the national response was not only overwhelmingly positive; the number of responses from public bodies considerably exceeded anything recorded before. As well as the formal and often stilted responses from public bodies the chapter includes a detailed listing showing how individual members of the public responded to Robespierre’s proposal by sending to the Committee for Public Education their poems, prayers, hymns and speeches in support of the Festival.

Abstract Milton’s career as a public servant originated in the constitutional and administrative innovations which followed the purging of the Long Parliament and the subsequent trial and execution of Charles I. Before 1649 much of the day-to-day running of the country and fighting the war had been invested in successive high-level committees: the Committee of Safety, followed in 1644 by the Committee of Both Kingdoms (which also served to coordinate the combined endeavours of England and Scotland), and finally in 1648 by the Derby House Committee (or ‘the Committee of Both Houses’), whose role and title changed to reflect the breach with the Scots.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

Under the auspices of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), a new standard supplement has been produced to aid operators in the development and implementation of an integrity management program. This new standard supplement will outline the technical requirements for implementation of an operator’s integrity management plan as well as the programmatic elements overall. Historically, integrity management has been an integral part of pipeline operations. Contained throughout ASME B31.8, integrity management requirements are specified. One purpose of this new supplement is to formalize a more deliberate process for the management of integrity and to push adoption of an industry consensus standard by the Office of Pipeline Safety. An ad-hoc task team was assembled earlier this year to develop the standard supplement. The task team consists of members from the Office of Pipeline Safety (OPS), from the National Association of Pipeline Safety Regulators, and from the gas transmission and distribution industry. With an opportunity to create a new standard, the task team was able to fundamentally and deliberately rethink the process and the protections provided. The standard supplement is the repository for twenty technical studies and reports completed by a variety of scientific and technical organizations. These studies and reports provide the technical platform for the standard supplement. It is anticipated that the standard will serve as a “hub” for many other standards, eight of which are presently under development. The B31.8 code was the predecessor to the pipeline safety regulations, which were first promulgated in 1970. The code is an international code and is approved by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI). It was felt that an ASME consensus standard would be the best home as the companion to the proposed regulations due to the strict policies of both ASME and ANSI for public comment, due process, and technical justification. The standard supplement provides guidance for two methods of compliance, a prescriptive track and a performance track. The prescriptive track will be very conservative but easier to implement. The performance track will be more flexible but will require significantly more data to implement. Within the standard supplement, the operator would have the option of following either track. This new standard supplement represents a new way for regulations, research and standards to be coordinated. It provides for performance based regulations referencing technically based standards that are developed from focused research.

Abstract (sommario):

The oil and gas pipeline companies in China are facing unprecedented opportunities and challenges because of China’s increasing demand for oil and gas energy that is attributed to rapid economic and social development. Limitation of land resource and the fast urbanization lead to a determinate result that many pipelines have to go through or be adjacent to highly populated areas such as cities or towns. The increasing Chinese government regulation, and public concerns about industrial safety and environmental protection push the pipeline companies to enhance the safety, health and environmental protection management. In recent years, PetroChina Pipeline Company (PPC) pays a lot of attention and effort to improve employees and public safety around the pipeline facilities. A comprehensive, integrated HSE management system is continuously improved and effectively implemented in PPC. PPC conducts hazard identification, risk assessment, risk control and mitigation, risk monitoring. For the oil and gas stations in highly populated area or with numerous employees, PPC carries out quantitative risk assessment (QRA) to evaluate and manage the population risk. To make the assessment, “Guidelines for quantitative risk assessments” (purple book) published by Committee for the Prevention of Disasters of Netherlands is used along with a software package. The basic principles, process, and methods of QRA technology are introduced in this article. The process is to identify the station hazards, determinate the failure scenarios of the facilities, estimate the possibilities of leakage failures, calculate the consequences of failures and damages to population, demonstrate the individual risk and social risk, and evaluate whether the risk is acceptable. The process may involve the mathematical modeling of fluid and gas spill, dispersion, fire and explosion. One QRA case in an oil pipeline station is described in this article to illustrate the application process and discuss several key issues in the assessment. Using QRA technique, about 20 stations have been evaluated in PPC. On the basis of the results, managers have taken prevention and mitigation plans to control the risk. QRAs in the pipeline station can provide a quantitative basis and valuable reference for the company’s decision-making and land use planning. Also, QRA can play a role to make a better relationship between the pipeline companies and the local regulator and public. Finally, this article delivers limitations of QRA in Chinese pipeline stations and discusses issues of the solutions.

Abstract (sommario):

The Manned Underwater Vehicles industry has evolved since the launch of DSV ALVIN in 1964 and the establishment of tourist passenger submersibles in the 1980’s and 1990’s. The emergence of the tourist passenger submersible sector in 1993 prompted the US Coast Guard to regulate commercial marine operations in the interest of public safety through NVIC 5-93. The rules were designed specifically for submersibles selling seats to members of the general public. To ensure public safety, the USCG helped define safeguards for those participants. Submersibles owned by the government, research institutions and corporations; or submersibles used for purposes other than selling rides to members of the general public, were not wholly addressed because growth in that sector was unforeseen. Almost 25 years after its release, the industry is regulated across all sectors of MUV operations by definitions established for the operation of a narrow segment of the industry, the tourism submersibles. However, construction over the past 23 years is 18% tourism submersibles, 8% government and 7% research. The remaining 67% of vessels, fall into an “other” category which does not have adequate definition. This white papers proposes that the Marine Technology Society committee on Manned Underwater Vehicles conduct a study for an updated Manned Underwater Vehicle Operations Safety Guideline with broad participation of the MUV stakeholders; International MUV industry members, Marine Technology Society, ASME PVHO, ABS, DNVGL, US Coast Guard and Navy. The challenge is to find the correct balance of regulatory control and commercial freedom to promote commercial growth while having a robust regulatory framework to manage the various concepts.

Abstract (sommario):

The American Public Transportation Association’s (APTA) Construction and Structural committee, a railroad industry group, with the support of the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) and the John A. Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (Volpe Center), is creating an industry safety standard for an energy absorbing table. Workstation tables in passenger trains are an increasingly popular seating configuration both in the United States and abroad. Although a well-attached table can provide convenience and compartmentalization for the occupant, there is a risk of abdominal injury during a rail accident. In Fact, there have been several accidents in the United States in which impacts with workstation tables have severely or fatally injured occupants. In 2006, in response to these injuries, an FRA sponsored program developed a prototype table that distributed load over a wider area of the abdomen and absorbed energy during a collision. This table design was tested with specialized anthropomorphic test devices (ATDs) instrumented to measure abdominal impact response and was shown to decrease injury risk compared to a baseline table design. Building on the knowledge gained in the development of the prototype table, the proposed standard requires force to the abdomen be limited while energy is absorbed by the table. Since manufacturers do not have access specialized ATDs, researchers proposed a two part testing requirement. The first part is a quasi-static test which measures the energy absorption capacity of the table with a maximum force level determined from testing with specialized abdominal ATDs. The second part is a sled test with a standard Hybrid III 50th percentile (HIII) ATD to assess compliance with occupant protection standards of compartmentalization and ATD injury assessment reference values (IARVs). This paper discusses the research performed to develop the performance requirement in the draft standard. Current injury measures, originally developed for the automotive industry, were examined to assess their applicability to workstation table impacts. Multiple Mathematical Dynamic Models (MADYMO) model simulations show the estimated injuries during a simulated sled test scenario. Several force-crush parameters were examined, including the initial stiffness of the force-crush curve, the plateau force and the target energy absorbed by the table, to determined the force-crush design characteristics of a table that are likely to reduce injury risk. The results of this study, combined with testing of the current prototype table described in a companion paper [1], led to a draft standard that will greatly improve the safety of workstation tables in passenger rail cars.

Abstract (sommario):

In France, a framework has been drawn up by the National Assembly and implemented by the government, in order to get the best relationship between Andra, among others, and the stakeholders and the inhabitants of the towns and countries where disposal facilities or projects are or could be established. The main threads of the two Acts passed in 2006, being relevant to the relationship with inhabitants are the information exchange and the local economic development. Dealing with the information exchange and diffusion: • The Local Information Committee (CLI), for each nuclear facility, has been reinforced and a specific, Local Information and Oversight Committee (for the Underground Laboratory in Meuse-Haute-Marne) has been renewed. The CLI was in charge of a general assignment to inform and consult on nuclear safety, radioprotection and environmental topics. Now, since 2006, the nuclear facility’s CLI and the CLIS are able to order study reports, measures and analyses to experts freely selected. • Creation of the High Committee for Transparency and Information on Nuclear Safety (HCTISN). This new authority aims to inform, consult and debate about the risks relevant to nuclear activities and their impacts on people’s health, environment and nuclear safety. Andra contributes to the functioning of CLI in disposal facilities at Manche and Aube Departments, and CLIS of the underground Laboratory at Meuse and Haute-Marne departments. This paper will present these contributions and how Andra’s action helps to reach the goals of information and exchange with the people around its facilities. Concerning the local economic development, there are specific organizations or schemes, depending on the facility: • Local taxes contributions based on the disposal facilities activities as is usual in France. • A High Level Committee (CHN) and two public interest groups (GIP) in Meuse and Haute-Marne departments have been set up since 1991 and 2005. Andra is represented in these three institutions, but they are not funded at all by Andra. This paper will show the Andra’s involvement in the local economic and territorial developments. Within this general framework Andra has developed information and exchanges actions with the stakeholders and the inhabitants around its facilities. Examples of these actions will be presented also.

<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">A bus is integral part of public transportation in both rural and urban areas. It is also used for scheduled transport, tourism, and school transport. Buses are the common mode of transport all over the world. The growth in economy, the electrification of public transport, demand in shared transport, etc., is leading to a surge in the demand for buses and accelerating the overall growth of the bus industry. With the increased number of buses, the issue of safety of passengers and the crew assumes special importance. The comfort of driver and passenger in the vehicle involves the vibration performance and therefore, the structural integrity of buses is critically important. Bus safety act depicts the safety and comfort of bus operations, management of safety risks, continuous improvement in bus safety management, public confidence in the safety of bus transport, appropriate stakeholder involvement and the existence of a safety culture among bus service providers. In order to provide buses with minimal vibration resistant superstructure, CMVR- Technical Standing Committee have framed requisite guidelines on Standardization of the Bus Body. AIS-052 (Rev.1): Code of Practice for Bus Body Design Approval, which is then amended as additional Requirements for Bus Construction named ‘Amend. No. 6 to AIS-153 (01/2020)’ to cater vibration requirements.</div><div class="htmlview paragraph">This paper includes the numerical simulation of vibration test of a full bus body according to AIS-153:2018, clause no.2.3.1 – evaluation of Lowest Natural Frequency of Bus. Standard simulation methodology for finite element model building and analysis to describe the real physical behavior of the vehicle in accordance with this regulation was the need of industry. This paper explains Bus FE modeling methodology for worst-case representation of bus structure for its global mode stiffness and vehicle gross weight. Representation of each of the vehicle aggregates for its mass or /and stiffness is explained. Post-processing approach to distinguish global modes from local modes is formulated. CAE methodology for Bus structural global modes is validated indirectly through historical multiple correlation data points of scaled down models like mini buses, vans, cars, etc. Physically measured Center of gravity of complete bus body in kerb weight condition is one of the parameters used for FE-Test correlation. Established simulation methodology is deployed as a reference framework for Bus industry to evaluate the natural frequency of complete bus body considering the regulatory requirements, evaluation criteria and detailed documentation as per guidelines mentioned in the code.</div></div>

Abstract (sommario):

The need to provide standardized guidance for the use of air cleaning systems in nuclear facilities was recognized in the 1960’s when plans for nuclear facilities were at their peak. The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) asked a group of experts to generate documents for boiling-water-reactor standby gas treatment systems for accident mitigation. These experts immediately recognized that their scope needed expansion to include all air cleaning safety systems at all types of nuclear facilities. Their efforts resulted in the issuance of documents that provided guidance for the components in air cleaning systems (ANSI N509), and guidance for the testing of these systems (ANSI N510). Subsequently, it was recognized that this guidance needed to be formalized and implemented in a code format, with requirements instead of recommendations. Various other organizations were also providing guidance in different forms. The US government (the Nuclear Regulatory Commission) issued regulatory guides, and the American Society for Testing of Materials (ASTM) issued many documents providing specifications for activated carbon used in air cleaning systems for radioiodine removal. Acknowledging the need to consolidate all of these documents in a single source, the American Society for Mechanical Engineers (ASME) requested the air cleaning experts to work on publishing a code section under ASME auspices. This code section, designated AG-1, was assigned to a newly formed committee, the ASME Committee on Nuclear Air and Gas Treatment (CONAGT). This Committee started work in the mid 1970’s, and has issued various sections of the code since then, and the document now totals 600 pages. This code section covers the design, construction, installation, operation and testing of air cleaning systems in nuclear facilities. Work continues on updates to these sections of the AG-1 Code, as well as new sections specifically addressing gas processing systems. ASME code section AG-1 is the main international document for nuclear air cleaning systems for safe operation of nuclear power facilities, to ensure the safety of workers, and to protect public health and safety and the environment. The Code has four divisions, and a membership of over 100 of the premier air cleaning experts from 11 different countries.

Abstract The increase in public transportation in the last decade has resulted in a larger pedestrian population and hence a larger number of pedestrian collisions. In the past, car-pedestrian accident prevention had been a challenge for automotive and transport safety members. Recent reports in car-pedestrian accidents have influenced many improvements to prioritize pedestrian protection for automotive industries. The number of pedestrian fatalities in U.S has raised in last decade proportionally, Car manufacturers, and transport investigation teams are implementing new product designs and adding new development methods to reduce the risk of pedestrian collisions. In this study, adult headform and upper legform is tested with a finite element vehicle model to examine the simulation results and injury behavior during impact. All finite element simulation tests are produced under Euro-NCAP Committee regulations. Finite element models are configured as per the regulation’s and testing criteria. Both upper legform impactor and adult headform finite simulation results are tested with assessing criteria limits. Finite simulation tests are carried on the LS-DYNA – Code platform. This comparative study between sedan and pickup finite vehicle models gives an injury risk prediction of pedestrian safety and assesses design parameters of automotive industries.

Abstract (sommario):

In September 2006, the regulatory body of Japan, the Nuclear Industry and Safety Agency (NISA), issued an interim report entitled “The improvement of the inspection system for nuclear power plants” which had been reviewed by the Subcommittee of the Advisory Committee on Nuclear and Industrial Safety. The report addresses the potential use of risk information in order to identify the safety significant inspection scope, to select and evaluate performance indicators, to evaluate the safety significance of inspection findings, and to enhance the maintenance program. NISA has been preparing for the new inspection system in Fiscal Year 2008. Before the implementation, technical bases such as the detailed design of the new inspection system and the pilot application of major issues need to be developed. The technical support of this new inspection program is now in progress by the Japan Nuclear Energy Safety Organization (JNES) to develop methodology and technical bases for improvement of efficiency and transparency of regulatory inspection, application of risk information to develop maintenance program guidelines, selection of performance indicators, identification of the safety significance of inspection findings and comprehensive evaluation of individual plants. This paper shows the development and sample calculation of significance determination process (SDP) which is one part of the new inspection program. The SDP is applied to evaluate the significance of inspection findings. The inspection findings are categorized into four groups such as the safety function facet, the risk facet, the public and occupational radiation exposure facet and the safety importance (SI) of the inspection findings are evaluated with risk information. The sample calculation with this SDP indicated that the level of SI is the same level by the current deterministic evaluation process. At present, the SDP models have been developed into the eight types of typical Japanese nuclear power plants for Boiling Water Reactor (BWR), BWR-3, BWR-4, BWR-5, Advanced BWR, 2-Loop, 3-Loop, 4-Loop Dry Containment Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) and 4-Loop Ice-Condenser PWR.

Testo completo

Abstract (sommario):

The creation of an intelligent supply chain is now an urgent national security priority that cannot be achieved without the joint mobilization of various stakeholders in Canada. It is not, however, an end in itself: the achievement of a single, competitive, sustainable, and consumer-focused domestic market should be the ultimate outcome of the national taskforce needed to collaboratively implement the recommendations of three complementary public policy reports published in 2022 on the state of the supply chain in Canada. The supply chain challenge is vast, and it will only become more complex over time. Governments in Canada must act together now, in conjunction with collaborative efforts with our allies and partners, notably the United States and the European Union, to ensure supply chain resilience in the face of accelerating current and anticipated upheavals, geopolitical conflicts and natural disasters. Québec's geostrategic position is a major asset, and gives it a critical role and responsibility in implementing not only the Final Report of the National Supply Chain Task Force ("ACT"), but also of the recommendations contained in the report published by the Council of Ministers Responsible for Transportation and Highway Safety (COMT) and those contained in the report of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Transport, Infrastructure and Communities published in Ottawa in November 2022, "Improving the Efficiency and Resilience of Canada's Supply Chains". The mobilizing approach towards a common data space for Canada's supply chain is inspired by Advantage St. Lawrence's forward-looking Smart Economic Corridor vision and builds on and integrates experience gained from various initiatives and programs implemented in Canada, the U.S. and Europe, as appropriate. Its initial implementation in the St. Lawrence - Great Lakes trade corridor will facilitate the subsequent access and sharing of data from across the Canadian supply chain in a reliable and secure manner. The accelerated joint development of a common data space is a game-changer not only in terms of solving critical supply chain challenges, but also in terms of the impetus it will generate in the pursuit of fundamental Canadian priorities, including the energy transition. This Bourgogne report offers a four-part synthesis: - An overview of a background characterized by numerous consultations, strategy announcements, measures, and mixed results. - A cross-analysis of the recommendations of three important and complementary public policy reports at federal level, as well as the Quebec strategy, “l'Avantage Saint-Laurent”. - An analysis of the fundamental issues of mobilization capacity, execution, and under-utilization of data. - Some operational solutions for moving into « Action, Collaboration and Transformation » (ACT) mode.

Abstract (sommario):

Faced with the acceleration of the digital economy, the governance and effective sharing of data have become fundamental issues for public policy at all levels of jurisdictions and in all areas of human activity. This paper reviews the initiatives and challenges associated with data governance, with a particular focus on the European Common Data Spaces (ECDS) and their direct relevance to the Canadian context. It explores the inherent complexity of data governance, which must reconcile sector-specificities with more horizontal governance principles. In doing so, it highlights the importance of strategic and coordinated action to maximize the social and economic benefits of data. The Burgundy Report, published by CIRANO in July 2023, calls for the creation of a common data space in the Great Lakes-St. Lawrence Strategic Trade Corridor by 2030. This proposal builds in particular on three separate policy reports published in 2022 by the National Supply Chain Task Force, the Council of Ministers Responsible for Transportation and Highway Safety (COMT) and the House of Commons Standing Committee on Transportation, Infrastructure and Communities. The findings and recommendations of these reports raise fundamental questions that are central to the critical issues of governance, organizational culture, execution capacity, public and private stakeholder engagement, and data underutilization within the Canadian government machinery strained by years of delay and exacerbated by recent disruptions related to anticipated climate disasters. The creation of a common data space is envisaged as a structuring investment in Canada's essential infrastructure for intermodal transport and the supply chain. This working paper on European Common Data Spaces (ECDS) extends the synthesis and recommendations published last July 2023 by providing an operational analysis of the transformative initiative currently underway within the European Union (EU). This major policy development stems from the 2020 European Data Strategy and seeks to establish twelve common data spaces in strategic sectors, including mobility and transport. The document is divided into three main parts. The first part provides an overview of data-related public policies in Canada and the EU between 2018 and 2023. The second part focuses on the implications and lessons learned from the impact assessment supporting the adoption of data governance legislation by the European institutions. This directive establishes a regulatory framework for the creation of common data spaces in the EU. The third section discusses the current deployment of ECDSs, highlighting key milestones and ongoing processes. The paper highlights notable similarities between the EU and Canada in the identification of data issues and the formulation of public policy objectives. It also highlights differences in optimizing data sharing between jurisdictions and stakeholders. A fundamental difference between these two strategic partners is the absence of an effective and sustained pooling of resources within the Canadian intergovernmental machinery in pursuit of common objectives in the face of major shared challenges such as data accessibility and sharing. This situation is in stark contrast to the EU's groundbreaking deployment of the ECDS in pursuit of identical objectives of positioning itself as a world leader in the data economy. This lack of consideration, let alone joint action, by Canada's intergovernmental machinery to implement a common data strategy in Canada is damaging. To be effective, the Canadian response must be agile, results-oriented, and interoperable across jurisdictions. The rigorous management, responsible use, and organized sharing of data within and between jurisdictions are crucial to addressing the complex challenges and major risks facing Canada. Neither the federal nor provincial governments are currently well positioned to treat data as a shared strategic asset. The resolution of regulatory, legal, and technical obstacles to data exchange between jurisdictions and organizations cannot be achieved without the creation of a common data space. This can only be achieved by combining the necessary tools and infrastructures, and by addressing issues of trust, for example by means of common rules drawn up for this purpose. “The barriers that prevent the establishment of robust health data sharing systems are not technical, but rather fundamentally political and cultural.”
