Impact Mitigation

Intelligent locomotive bumper designs have been touted as possible life-savers for pedestrians. Paden, Kelly, Hines, Botham and Simms explored the feasibility of a life-saving locomotive bumper (103). There were several motivations behind their paper. Perhaps the most important one was the high number of pedestrians that were killed every year in train impacts. Between the years 2007 and 2012, about 10,950 non-suicide deaths were attributed to train impact on humans. Including suicide deaths on railroads, 28,800 pedestrians were killed during that 6-year period. Also, Paden et al., noted that passenger trains served densely populated areas ( ...

Research is an important aspect when it comes to determining the course of a problem in a society and finding a solution to the problem. After my recent appointment into the organization, I discovered that there is little research that has been done with regards to working on solving the situation regarding youth homelessness in South Australia. Based on my survey, I found out that previous reports on the situation in South Australia had been based on hunches and anecdotal evidence which in my opinion is too shallow to help solve the situation. It is important that a deep ...

The main idea of a research proposal is identification of important social issues, for which an additional research is needed to clarify them, and, in some cases, to justify the need of sponsorship and to describe the main ideas of an investigation. Among the most important of this academic and sometimes business activity are succinct, yet informative abstract and introduction with an absorbing narrative hook. This paper discusses the main elements of these components of a research proposal, as well as it speculates about irrelevance of rhetorical questions in academic and business research.

Although during adulthood and adolescence there are a lot of developmental aspects, wide personal variations occur because of core issues, achievements and circumstances. For example, not all people can attain stages of psychological development in early adulthood. There ...

A better idea of this situation can be gathered from the fact that the success of large ...

Police misconduct is not a frequent news headline. Yet, when incidents of police conduct do hit the news, the reason is the serious nature of the misconduct and its widespread impact. Even with the recognition that police misconduct cannot be completely eliminated, preventive measures and strategies to mitigate the impact of misconduct need to be in place. Existing measures and strategies also need continuous evaluation to support the necessary reforms to address emerging issues on police misconduct. Media frenzy, public outcry, and politicization of police misconduct often complicate effective response to this issue. When this happens, it helps to ...

Scenario C

Naive realism implies that the world is exactly the way we perceive it (Lilienfeld). This fact brings about mental short cut especially for the Dr in scenario C who has biased assumptions of the effects of cycling.

The problem, in this case, is that the world is not exactly in the manner we want to see it. In scenario C, the doctor has expectations that the participants will have the same results as him and therefore, he relied on ...
