Contingencies, identifying

If the yields are accepted without full-scale testing, questions can and should arise as to how much contingency exists in the yields (since after all, they were obtained by correlations of similar coals, or perhaps by small-scale tests for your coal, for example). For at least one study, initially presented yields of this sort were found to represent a conservative case and upon request, yields were revealed that were closer to licensor expectations with no contingency. Some design contingency must be provided, but to do this intelligently, any yield contingency must be identified. 

Internal Equipment Blockage bv Collapsed Internals - Contingencies such as collapsed reactor bed vessel internals (e.g., fixed-bed reactor grids, coked catalyst beds, accumulation of catalyst fines, plugging of screens and strainers, lines blocked with sediments, etc.) should be considered to identify any overpressure situations that could result. The use of the "1.5 Times Design Pressure Rule" is applicable in such cases, if this is a remote contingency. 

While none of these kinds of variances can be precisely estimated you should consider them (and others you identify) in terms of their potential impact, and build an appropriate contingency percentage into estimates of... 

Successful installation, or roll-out, of your PSM systems requires sound planning and effective execution. No matter how diligent you have been, or how receptive and well-managed your company may be, no system as complex as PSM can work perfectly the first time. As every project manager knows, it s impossible to anticipate every outcome or contingency—especially when human behavior is involved. Pilot testing a new system provides the opportunity to identify weaknesses under controlled conditions this in turn enables you to fix problems before the system becomes fully operational. Once these problems are corrected, the pilot test produces a template for installation that can be replicated elsewhere. 

Are contingency/emergency plans in place in the event of accidental emission/discharge Provide documentary evidence. Identify the risk category. 

The test is repeated for all identifiable effects and for a number of different rates of exposure. Standard 2x2 contingency tables(2 ) are used to determine the odds of observing the bioassay outcome if the null hypothesis is true using Fisher s exact test. For all adverse effects, including cancer, the first rule of the strategy for deciding whether a substance is toxic is to ... 

Ideally, submove 3.3 both identihes a potential obstacle and offers a contingency plan. Considerthe following passages, all taken from submove3.3 of Experimental Approach sections. In each passage, identify the problem and, if present, the possible solution. 

Write move 3 of your proposal Be sure to (1) remind reader of preliminary results, (2) describe procedures and instrumentation in a logical manner (e.g., sequentially, by underlying themes, by desired outcomes, or some combination), and (3) anticipate obstacles and suggest alternatives with a contingency plan (that identifies both problems and possible solutions). Use appropriate headings and subheadings in your writing. 

The second type of probability sum calculated from the set of Ps contains only those trial tables that are more extreme in the same direction as the measured contingency table. As with the chi-square test, if this probability is less than or equal to the significance level, a, chosen for the study, then the null hypothesis of no effect is rejected otherwise, the null hypothesis is accepted. This P is referred to as a one-tail or one-sided P-value and its associated test, a one-tailed test. The difficulty in this type of test is to correctly identify the trial tables from the set that are more extreme in the same direction as the measured contingency table. 

The last four cost figures before the final totaled cost in Table 8.38—sales tax, freight, client supervision, engineering fees, and contingency—are shown as factors. These factors in the same identified order are 10% of materials, 5% of total, 12% of total, and 10% of total. Notice that the 10% for sales tax and freight is exactly 10% of the total materials cost in Table 8.38. Likewise, the other percentages are exactly that percent of the total project s bottom-line cost in Table 8.38. 

Travel career A dynamic concept arguing that tourists have identifiable stages in their holiday taking. The state of one s travel career, like a career at work, is influenced by previous travel experiences and life-stage or contingency factors. A pattern of travel motives should be linked to or characterise the state of one s travel career. (Empirical studies are useful to explore these links.) Travel careers can be operationalised by a conjoint consideration of travel experience, age and life cycle. 

On the internal realist view there cannot be a mismatch. The real structures are the structures our recognition abilities and justification conditions identify. The real boundaries coincide with the boundaries we draw, since the former are identical with the latter. Something is a dog, if the sentence This is a dog is justified when it is applied to it, for the very kind DOG owes its existence to the justification conditions. As a result, at least some of our sentences are bound to be true, namely, those simple sentences whose justification conditions are responsible for drawing the boundaries. So truth cannot completely diverge from justification. There are sentences for which to be true is to be justified. Consequently, there is a conceptual connection between truth and justification. The connection is not purely contingent. Truth is then not completely non-epistemic. 

The 1980 Congressional revision of the National Contingency Plan, now known as the Superfund Bill, is effectively a compromise between sharply differing positions. It calls for priority setting to identify the most hazardous sites, and this in turn requires explicit assessment of the risks from the sites. 

Two of these situational theories are the situational leadership theory and the contingency theory, in which the organizational environment is considered a major factor in leader effectiveness. The path-goal theory adds another extension to these situational theories — the concept of the leader as a coach and mentor. The concepts of mentoring and coaching are more fully discussed in Chapter 7. The concept of situational leadership as developed by Paul Hersey and Kenneth Blanchard helps participants identify their own leadership styles, understand the four preferred styles available to them, and matches leadership styles to the needs of their followers (see Bennis and Nanus, 1985).
