The Current State of Research on New Methods and Technologies for the Safety and Reliability of Assessment of Propellants, Explosives and Pyrotechnics1

Abstract

Materials with high energy have in the past and are still in use for both intensive military and civil purposes. Research and studies have been conducted recently to try establishing and inventing new materials likely to have enhanced high performance and that are less sensitive to heat and shock as compared to existing materials. In future military applications have a threshold to be adjusted to. This paper is mainly focusing on the on the advancements, possible formulations of ...

The brain is a highly complex organ, with a network of nerve cells that serve as a starting point for everything an individual senses, thinks, and ultimately the actions carried out. There are two responses that the brain is responsible for carrying out: conscious responses and autonomic responses, with fear being an example of the latter due to it usually being triggered unconsciously, leaving the individual to realize that the fear reaction has been triggered only after a myriad of physical responses have occurred (Debiec & LeDoux, 2004).
While the experience of fear is rather autonomic, ...

In a section of Edward Abbey's The Journey Home, the author comments on the apparently nebulous appeal of the desert, passionately asking his readers, "why go into the desert? Really, why do it?" (Abbey). While this passage, at first, seems to be a condemnation of the dangerous and hazardous nature of the desert and all its wildlife in particular, the passion by which he describes the desert itself is exactly what makes it appealing. By playing up this sense of danger and righteous fascination with the unknown, the reader is almost defied to love the desert; here, Abbey play-acts the role ...

Article 1 - Worsening Memory Associated With Later Alzheimers Disease

Summary - This article briefly discusses how memory loss is associated with Alzheimer's disease, particularly, the way it progresses from mild to moderate towards severe. Studies have revealed that even though memory loss is connected to age it could be exclusive to certain predisposing conditions since everyone beyond 75 yrs of age is not affected by memory issues. (“Worsening Memory Associated,” 2011)

Precisely, it was discovered that memory impairment trends were related to worry rather than the sequel of aging. More in-depth research based on discussions found in this article is suggestive that memory impairment does not necessarily mean ...

The analysis of the relationship between a state and a country is an essential component to understanding the nature of human security with respect to international relations. The evaluation also assists in contrasting views between state-centric and traditional mechanisms of national security. The traditional approach is a referent of the ability of a nation to protect itself from external threats. Therefore, interests involving sub-national groups and individuals are subordinate to those of the state. National interests help in affirming the “other” as a significant element of understanding the self and foreign aspects. David Campbell in his article Writing Security: ...

Demand and supply of healthcare insurance

Introduction
As supply and demand for most markets tend to work perfectly, that is not the case with the health care sector. The demand for healthcare is unlimited. The supply of physicians does not concur with the market forces. Some specializations do not fit the supply-demand curve. In all cases, specialization is fostered by income. The healthcare system is based on the third party payer system. The payment is neither paid by the patient nor the provider but the health insurance. The health insurance acts as the third party. The payer is not represented anywhere in the supply-demand curve. ...

Comparing the 2008 Us Crisis with the Japan’s “Lost Decade”

Both the Japan’s lost decade and the 2008 United States and the world financial crisis were caused by excess savings and inflation of huge asset bubbles. By 1980s many Japanese resorted to a lot of savings on their income as they expected to retire. This translated negatively on the economy as it lowered the Gross Domestic Product and weakened local demand of commodities. Furthermore, much savings simply meant that the Japanese citizen had foregone consumption. However, this problem was disguised in the Japanese poor finance policy as well as financial technology. Inflation therefore arose from poor regulation of the ...
