Download or read book Weaponomics the global market for assault rifles written by Phillip Killicoat and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2007 with total page 23 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Abstract: This paper introduces the first effort to quantitatively document the small arms market by collating field reports and journalist accounts to produce a cross-country time-series price index of Kalashnikov assault rifles. A model of the small arms market is developed and empirically estimated to identify the key determinants of assault rifle prices. Variables which proxy the effective height of trade barriers for illicit trade are consistently significant in determining weapon price variation. When controlling for other factors, the collapse of the Soviet Union does not have as large an impact on weapon prices as is generally believed.

Download or read book Engineering Materials 2 written by Michael F. Ashby and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2014-06-28 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Provides a thorough explanation of the basic properties of materials; of how these can be controlled by processing; of how materials are formed, joined and finished; and of the chain of reasoning that leads to a successful choice of material for a particular application. The materials covered are grouped into four classes: metals, ceramics, polymers and composites. Each class is studied in turn, identifying the families of materials in the class, the microstructural features, the processes or treatments used to obtain a particular structure and their design applications. The text is supplemented by practical case studies and example problems with answers, and a valuable programmed learning course on phase diagrams.
Download or read book Mechanics The Science of Machinery written by A. Russell Bond and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2021-05-19 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is written not just for a mechanical engineer but also for the layman who would learn of the mechanical contrivances that contribute to his material welfare. The author has avoided the use of technical terms, as far as possible, and where inescapable, the technical words have been explained and defined. The book covers topics from "Tool Making Animals" to "Engines of Destruction". Through this work, the author has aimed to give a detailed and thorough view of the whole story of human progress in all things mechanical. It's the entire story of machinery, from primitive man's first tries to expand his physical powers with mechanical aids down to that era of early 1900s where massive, steel-muscled machinery and marvelously complex mechanisms, is the story of human advancement.

Download or read book Technics and Civilization written by Lewis Mumford and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-10-30 with total page 524 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Technics and Civilization first presented its compelling history of the machine and critical study of its effects on civilization in 1934—before television, the personal computer, and the Internet even appeared on our periphery. Drawing upon art, science, philosophy, and the history of culture, Lewis Mumford explained the origin of the machine age and traced its social results, asserting that the development of modern technology had its roots in the Middle Ages rather than the Industrial Revolution. Mumford sagely argued that it was the moral, economic, and political choices we made, not the machines that we used, that determined our then industrially driven economy. Equal parts powerful history and polemic criticism, Technics and Civilization was the first comprehensive attempt in English to portray the development of the machine age over the last thousand years—and to predict the pull the technological still holds over us today. “The questions posed in the first paragraph of Technics and Civilization still deserve our attention, nearly three quarters of a century after they were written.”—Journal of Technology and Culture

Download or read book Safeguarding Equipment and Protecting Employees from Amputations written by U. S. Labor and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2012-06-25 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: OSHA 3170-02R, Safeguarding Equipment and Protecting Employees from Amputation. Amputations are among the most severe and disabling workplace injuries that often result in permanent disability. They are widespread and involve various activities and equipment. (The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics 2005 annual survey data indicated that there were 8,450 non-fatal amputation cases - involving days away from work - for all private industry. Approximately forty-four percent (44%) of all workplace amputations occurred in the manufacturing sector and the rest occurred across the construction, agriculture, wholesale and retail trade, and service industries). These injuries result from the use and care of machines such as saws, presses, conveyors, and bending, rolling or shaping machines as well as from powered and non-powered hand tools, forklifts, doors, trash compactors and during materials handling activities. Anyone responsible for the operation, servicing, and maintenance (also known as use and care) of machines (which, for purposes of this publication includes equipment) - employers, employees, safety professionals, and industrial hygienists - should read this publication. Primary safeguarding, as used in this publication, includes control methods that protect (e.g., prevent employee contact with hazardous machine areas) employees from machine hazards through effective machine guarding techniques. In addition, a hazardous energy control (lockout/tagout) program need to complement machine safeguarding methods in order to protect employees during potentially hazardous servicing and maintenance work activities. This guide can help you identify and manage common amputation hazards associated with the operation and care of machines.
