Beneficial comments (recommendations, additions, deletions) and any pertinent data that may be of use in improving this document should be addressed to: Director, Office of Engineering, Operations, Security and Transition Support (DP-31, GTN), U.S. Department of Energy, Washington, D.C., 20585. 3. The issue of airborne releases of radioactive material from nonreactor nuclear facilities has been a subject of investigation for almost four decades, during which time a large number of individuals have contributed to the current knowledge base. Beginning in the 1960’s, a number of experiments were conducted in the United States and other countries to develop actual data on release potentials. In the late 1970s, the United States Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) sponsored a research program to develop improved methods for realistically evaluating the consequences of major accidents in nuclear fuel cycle facilities. This program culminated in the development of NUREG-1320 (5/88), "Nuclear Fuel Cycle Facility Accident Analysis Handbook." The U.S. DOE began placing an increased emphasis on environmental, health, and safety issues in the mid- to late-1980s. In response to these efforts, the DOE Office of Defense Programs (DP) sponsored the Defense Programs Safety Survey (11/93). One of the objectives of this study was to build upon previous work to "develop consistent data and methodologies for making conservative estimates of basic consequence derivation parameters." As part of this effort, experimental data for airborne release fractions and respirable fractions were summarized and evaluated to estimate reasonably bounding values for physical stresses associated with the experiments. The unique and valuable nature of that compilation has been judged to merit further development as a handbook that can be directly used by technical analysts. 4. This handbook contains (1) a systematic compilation of airborne release and respirable fraction experimental data for nonreactor nuclear facilities, (2) assessments of the data, and (3) values derived from assessing the data that may be used in safety analyses when the data are applicable. To assist in consistent and effective use of this information, the handbook provides: Identification of a consequence determination methodology in which the information can be used; Page i DOE-HDBK-3010-94 Discussion of the applicability of the information and its general technical limits; Identification of specific accident phenomena of interest for which the information is applicable; Examples of use of the consequence determination methodology and airborne release and respirable fraction information. It is acknowledged that the data examined in this handbook is limited to that available during the preparation process. Other data may exist or be developed, and individuals are invited to submit such material for consideration for any future revisions. Page ii DOE-HDBK-3010-94 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This Department of Energy Handbook was prepared by Mr. Jofu Mishima and Mr. David Pinkston of SAIC under the technical direction of Mr. Dae Chung, DOE Office of Defense Programs.

"- SCOPE OF REVIEW In accordance with discussions with your office, we focused on --a cost comparison of the bids submitted in response to the fiscal year 1979 solicitation, --the need for the Center as a producer of penetrators, --whether the use of the Center would have avoided pro- duction delays, and --the latest expenditure figures for the fiscal year 1978 and 1979 contracts. We also (1) reviewed the history of the Army's efforts to improve its 105-mm. tank armament leading to the decision to develop a depleted uranium penetrator (XM774 round), (2) looked at correspondence from DOE stating its position and the conditions under which it might accept a production contract to use the Center, and (3) obtained information on (950600) B-199906 the problems encountered by the first limited production contractor, National Lead of Albany (NLA), also a subsidiary of NL Industries, Inc., in performing under the terms of the 1978 contract.
  • The Whammy Line As a Tool for Fostering Moral Imagination

    The Whammy Line As a Tool for Fostering Moral Imagination

    Session 1661 The Whammy Line as a Tool for Fostering Moral Imagination Rosanne L. Welker, W. Bernard Carlson University of Virginia A central goal of engineering ethics instruction should be to help students develop their moral imaginations. According to Patricia Werhane, moral imagination refers to the ability of professionals to imagine a variety of outcomes for their decisions. Werhane emphasizes that if one is unable to imagine different scenarios, then one cannot assess the risk or apply a framework for moral reasoning (such as utilitarianism, Kantian duty ethics, Lockean rights ethics, or Aristotelian virtue ethics).1 However, we have discovered that students find it difficult to grasp the notion of moral imagination and apply it to detailed case studies. While we know that there are several tools (such as stakeholder analysis) that can be used in conjunction with moral imagination, we have devised a new teaching tool to foster moral imagination, which we call the Whammy Line. In using the Whammy Line to cultivate moral imagination, we have the students read a variety of materials. Because traditional ethics cases (for instance, the Poletown Dilemma) often gloss over the ambiguity surrounding consequences in real life, we use short stories and novels to tease out how individuals may fail to imagine fully the negative consequences of their actions or designs. Complementing the literary approach, we also use several historical cases in order to show students both positive and negative episodes of how real-life technologists dealt with consequences. In this paper, we will describe the Whammy Line and outline some of the texts we are using to develop in the classroom.

I would also like to express my deep gratitude to my colleagues at Arendal Upper Secondary School, Steinar Tvedt, Inger Johanne Hermansen, Ane Kristine Bruland and Ida Wullum for their patient guidance and useful critique of my writing in English. Finally, I wish to thank my father, a proud working-class man, for his support and encouragement throughout my whole life. Throughout his life, he was never able to read English. Therefore, he “forced” me to translate my work for him. The Nazi-form of evil with Himmler, Mengele and Eichmann concerned him. Often, he asked me, how could a man (Eichmann) be that blinded? Without my father giving me motivation, I would never have come this far in my studies. 1 CONTENTS ABSTRACT …..5 CHAPTER 1, INTRODUCTION 1.1) General introduction of evil in movies …..6-7 1.2) My Research Question ……7 1.3) A short overview on the typologies of evil …..7-9 1.4) Defining evil …..9-10 1.5) A critique and defense of evil ….10-12 1.6) What is The X-files about? ….12-14 1.7) Why explore The X-Files? …..14-15 CHAPTER 2, METHODS 2.1) Theory and applied ethics …..16-18 2.2) Specific evil episodes as subjects for research and constructing analysis chapters ..18-19 2.3) The importance of using scientific work related to movies and evil …..19-21 2.4) Methodological inspiration for my thesis, work done by Dean A.

When television show The X- Files premiered on September 10, 1993, no one anticipated its impact on a generation of television viewers. The X-Files is an American pop cultural mainstay. The paradoxical brilliance of the show is that it both influenced and interpreted popular American culture. Something vital about our time in history speaks through the stories it tells. It is not the only science fiction television show to create legions of fans, spawn movies, books, comics, and general obsession in American geekdom. But it is the only television show which began in 1993, ran for almost a decade, and then returned, fourteen years later with episodes seeking transcendent answers about what it means to be human, and the possibility of knowledge, truth, and power in the era of Trump, fake news and social media. ii 1 Jung, the Shadow, and The X-Files Introduction – The X-Files I am interested in exploring Jung’s theory of the shadow, personal unconscious, and collective unconscious, using The X-Files as its narrative transport.

  • Precaution in Practice (ICBUW)

    Precaution in Practice (ICBUW)

    International Coalition to Ban Uranium Weapons Precaution in Practice: challenging the acceptability of depleted uranium weapons Preface Depleted uranium (DU) weapons have proved a controversial addition to the conventional arsenals of militaries since their first development in the Cold War. Opposition to their use has varied in pitch over the years but has tended to correlate closely with their deployment in conflict. Yet throughout this period, it has been clear from the column inches printed, the parliamentary debates and, more recently the bills, motions and resolutions passed, that the use of DU munitions appears to be intrinsically unacceptable to most people. The stigmatisation of inhumane and unacceptable weapons has been crucial to extending the impact of the international treaties banning anti-personnel landmines and cluster bombs. But while DU has shown itself, to a degree, to be self-stigmatising – evidence for which is clearly demonstrated by the energetic public relations strategies of its proponents, the difficulty of establishing a causal link between its use and humanitarian impact requires a different approach to judging its acceptability to those that have historically been applied to explosive weapons. Common sense lies at the heart of people’s innate response to assessing the acceptability of DU’s use in conventional weapons, thus it seemed only right for ICBUW to launch a discourse rooted in precaution. The Precautionary Principle provides a useful model for both health and environmental protection, particularly where scientific complexity and uncertainty meet. Throughout the last three years, ICBUW has been applying a precautionary prism to different aspects of what remains a complex issue, from what is known about DU as a material and how it is regulated in peacetime, to how and where it is used in conflict, how it is managed after conflict and, crucially, to the cost/benefit calculations relating to its use.
