Book excerpt: With continued military downsizing and base closures, cleanup of unexploded ordnance (UXO) at former weapons ranges has become one of the most costly environmental problems the military faces. This study examines cost estimation for UXO remediation conducted at closed military installations, the difficulties of accurately estimating cleanup costs, and the major effects that different cleanup requirements and methods can have on cost.

Download or read book Combat Casualty Care written by Martha K. Lenhart and published by Government Printing Office. This book was released on 2012 with total page 794 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is designed to deliver combat casualty care information that will facilitate transition from a continental US or civilian practice to the combat care environment. Establishment of the Joint Theater Trauma System and the Joint Theater Trauma Registry, coupled with the efforts of the authors, has resulted in the creation of the most comprehensive, evidence-based depiction of the latest advances in combat casualty care. Lessons learned in Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) and Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) have been fortified with evidence-based recommendations to improve casualty care. The educational curriculum was designed overall to address the leading causes of preventable death and disability in OEF and OIF. Specifically, the generalist combat casualty care provider is presented requisite information for optimal cae of US combat casualties in the first 72 to 96 hours after injury. The specialist provider is afforded similiar information, supplemented by lessons learned for definitive care of host nation patients."--

Download or read book Alternatives for the Demilitarization of Conventional Munitions written by National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2019-01-11 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. military has a stockpile of approximately 400,000 tons of excess, obsolete, or unserviceable munitions. About 60,000 tons are added to the stockpile each year. Munitions include projectiles, bombs, rockets, landmines, and missiles. Open burning/open detonation (OB/OD) of these munitions has been a common disposal practice for decades, although it has decreased significantly since 2011. OB/OD is relatively quick, procedurally straightforward, and inexpensive. However, the downside of OB and OD is that they release contaminants from the operation directly into the environment. Over time, a number of technology alternatives to OB/OD have become available and more are in research and development. Alternative technologies generally involve some type of contained destruction of the energetic materials, including contained burning or contained detonation as well as contained methods that forego combustion or detonation. Alternatives for the Demilitarization of Conventional Munitions reviews the current conventional munitions demilitarization stockpile and analyzes existing and emerging disposal, treatment, and reuse technologies. This report identifies and evaluates any barriers to full-scale deployment of alternatives to OB/OD or non-closed loop incineration/combustion, and provides recommendations to overcome such barriers.

Download or read book Potential Theory in Gravity and Magnetic Applications written by Richard J. Blakely and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1996-09-13 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This text bridges the gap between the classic texts on potential theory and modern books on applied geophysics. It opens with an introduction to potential theory, emphasising those aspects particularly important to earth scientists, such as Laplace's equation, Newtonian potential, magnetic and electrostatic fields, and conduction of heat. The theory is then applied to the interpretation of gravity and magnetic anomalies, drawing on examples from modern geophysical literature. Topics explored include regional and global fields, forward modeling, inverse methods, depth-to-source estimation, ideal bodies, analytical continuation, and spectral analysis. The book includes numerous exercises and a variety of computer subroutines written in FORTRAN. Graduate students and researchers in geophysics will find this book essential.

Download or read book Quality Guideline for Offshore Explosive Ordnance Disposal written by Torsten Frey and published by Beuth Verlag GmbH. This book was released on 2020-04-29 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The OECD report 'The Ocean Economy in 2030' predicts that the global maritime economy will grow by 100% in the period from 2010 to 2030. In the same year, there are expected to be more than 40 million people working in the sector globally. This potential is reflected in various national strategy papers of industrialised nations. With its long-term 'Blue Growth' strategy the European Union aims to develop and expand the continent's leading maritime industry sectors through targeted funding. The precondition for the widespread use of the sea is safe access to the sea floor. However, this access is impeded and in some cases made impossible by the presence of 1.6 million tonnes of unexploded ordnance (UXO) in German marine waters alone. Already today, unexploded ordnance (UXO) in the sea plays a part in some of our country's major societal challenges. For example, the success of the energy transition relies on the ability to erect wind parks in the North and Baltic Seas. I addition, visionary infrastructure projects such as the Fehmarnbelt tunnel can only be realised if the construction ground is guaranteed to be free of UXO. The safety of personnel and technical equipment in shipping, fisheries, aqua-culture and deep sea mining depends on whether comprehensive solutions for the explosive ordnance disposal in the sea are found. Finally, beach goes shall be able to spend carefree holi-days at the beaches of Germany's coastal states. The present quality guideline was developed to address the current challenges associated with offshore explosive ordnance disposal (EOD). The actors in EOD often act in the absence of clearly defined standards. There is no recognised industry wide method of checking the suitability of organisational procedures, deployed personnel, devices used and the handling of these devices. This situation is mainly due to the fact that a framework for formal recognition is lacking. The explosive ordnance disposal sector is also under immense cost pressure

Book excerpt: "While public interest in landmines is recent, their use and that of their non-explosive predecessors has a history which spans 2,500 years. Mike Croll explains the development, employment and reactions to these weapons from the concealed spikes of antiquity to the electronically-fused systems of today." "The History of Landmines takes the reader from ancient Rome to the colonial wars and from the American Civil War to the Gulf War explaining why increasing numbers of these devices have been used and how they have become more sophisticated. The genesis of the present humanitarian crisis is fully described along with the problems of clearing landmines today."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
