Comprehensive reviews of medical databases (105) and health and toxicological information systems (106), including search aids in each field, appeared in ARIST pubHcations in 1983 and 1990. Toxicology information was reviewed in 1983 (103) and medical and health information in 1990 (100). Reviews of electronic government information (107) and engineering information systems (108) have also been pubHshed and provide an expansion of database knowledge for readers who require crossover information in these fields.

If the RFA or other information has indicated a release of hazardous constituents, then from the owner/operator s perspective, the Corrective Action process truly begins. The first step in the process, the RCRA Facility Investigation (RFI), is directed toward development of the engineering information about the site necessary to permit selection and evaluation of remedial alternatives. The main engineering thrust of the RFI is the characterization of site conditions by defining the nature and extent of the problem.

Various novel applications in biotechnology, biomedical engineering, information industry, and microelectronics involve the use of polymeric microspheres with controlled size and surface properties [1-31. Traditionally, the polymer microspheres larger than 100 /urn with a certain size distribution have been produced by the suspension polymerization process, where the monomer droplets are broken into micron-size in the existence of a stabilizer and are subsequently polymerized within a continuous medium by using an oil-soluble initiator. Suspension polymerization is usually preferred for the production of polymeric particles in the size range of 50-1000 /Ltm. But, there is a wide size distribution in the product due to the inherent size distribution of the mechanical homogenization and due to the coalescence problem. The size distribution is measured with the standard deviation or the coefficient of variation (CV) and the suspension polymerization provides polymeric microspheres with CVs varying from 15-30%.

The line the data supports on a hazard plot determines engineering information relating to the distribution of time to failure. Fan failure data and simulated data are illustrated here to explain how the information is obtained. The methods provide estimates of distribution parameters, percentiles, and probabilities of failure. The methods that give estimates of distribution parameters differ slightly from the hazard paper of one theoretical distribution to another and are given separately for each distribution. The methods that give estimates of distribution percentiles and failure probabilities are the same for all papers and are given first. 

The cumulative hazard plotting method and papers presented here provide simple means for statistical analyses of multiply censored failure data to obtain engineering information. The hazard-plotting method is simpler to use for multiply censored data than other plotting methods given in the literature and directly gives failure-rate information not provided by others.

On-line databases that include hazard and engineering information. 

You should be able to find some of this information on the MSDS, such as how to respond to a spill or fire. In some cases, suppliers have developed technical bulletins that provide very detailed engineering information. You should ask for and use these bulletins if they are available. 

In contrast, if technologically sophisticated products are subject to the negligence rule, several difficulties impede efficiency. First, courts must determine appropriate due-care levels for firms, a difficult matter in all situations but even harder when technical or engineering information is involved. Second, even if courts select an...

Pressure and temperature retrieval exploits the hydrostatic equilibrium assumption, that provides a relationship between temperature, pressure and geometrical altitude. Besides, line of sight engineering information is included in the retrieval of tangent pressure at each iteration step by means of optimal estimation method [9J, because it constitutes an effective source of information of each specific MIPAS scan which stabilizes the retrieval and reduces the number of iterations needed for reaching the convergence without introducing any bias in the retrieved results.

The author intended to show the usefulness of information entropy in chemical engineering although information entropy is not common in this field. Not many examples have been considered for explaining the usefulness of information entropy. Therefore, it is still a question whether information entropy can be applied in chemical engineering. However, the author expects that information entropy will be accepted in chemical engineering, since it is related to the probability terms that are widely used in chemical engineering. Since there are many phenomena that can be expressed by probability terms in chemical engineering, information entropy would be valid over a wide area. The author expects that the number of researchers interested in information entropy will increase.
