Hidden Report

Two trial sections of track were fitted with ATP immediately after the publication of the Hidden Report. But the industry s commitment to ATP dwindled and one of the railway inspectors I interviewed post-privatization cited the failure to install ATP as evidence of the industry s resistance to regulatory demands. BR representatives made public moves to distance themselves from ATP. For instance, in July 1994 the Joint Managing Director (Safety) gave a conference paper entitled Value for Money in Transport Safety Measiures in which he made the case against ATP, explaining the basis upon which the judgement was made ... 

The Hidden Report also recommended the introduction of on-train data recorders the introduction of cab radios as a matter of priority research into the structural integrity of Mark 1 stock and the introduction of total quality management (TQM) and external safety audits. The introduction of cab radios had not been fully implemented five years after the report and neither had the Mark 1 rolling stock been either improved or withdrawn from service. 

Our industry was dealt a severe blow to its confidence by the Clapham accident vkI subsequent Hidden Report As a direct resuK, a need for spedfic safety management training was identified in the project arena, to am alongside the existing project training.

The story of luminescence advances since 1970 is best found in the current literature. It is too large and diversified to be readily summarized in a single article and too recent to edit for the most important events. Luminescence studies are so pervasive throughout all the fields of science that each special sphere of inquiry could have its own recent history of luminescence. Many of the most important developments of today will necessarily remain hidden to most scientists until later discoveries reveal their significance. For these reasons, this report continues with a personal selection of topics, chosen to guide the reader to a potpourri of interesting recent reports. 

In some studies, an increase in the run-up distance with tube diameter was reported, but this may be owing to the hidden influence of such factor as tube roughness. The ratio of the run-up distance to the tube diameter Xoot/D was found to be in the range of 15 0. 

According to the literature [21], all reported electrochemical oscillations can be classified into four classes depending on the roles of the true electrode potential (or Helmholtz-layer potential, E). Electrochemical oscillations in which E plays no essential role and remains essentially constant are known as strictly potentiostatic (Class I) oscillations, which can be regarded as chemical oscillations containing electrochemical reactions. Electrochemical oscillations in which E is involved as an essential variable but not as the autocatalytic variable are known as S-NDR (Class II) oscillations, which arise from an S-shaped negative differential resistance (S-NDR) in the current density (/) versus E curve. Oscillations in which E is the autocatalytic variable are knovm as N-NDR (Class III) oscillations, which have an N-shaped NDR. Oscillations in which the N-NDR is obscured by a current increase from another process are knovm as hidden N-NDR (HN-NDR Class IV) oscillations. It is known that N-NDR oscillations are purely current oscillations, whereas HN-NDR oscillations occur in both current and potential. The HN-NDR oscillations can be further divided into three or four subcategories, depending on how the NDR is hidden.

Consequently, several hidden quantities can be estimated on the basis of the SMO approach. The procedure based on Equation 4.13 can be simply extended even to 2D separations as described in Fig. 4.7. In practice, the 2D pattern, in terms of spot positions and abundances, is divided into several strips. Each strip is transformed into a ID line chromatogram and the procedure described in Fig. 4.7 is then applied. Equation 4.13 is employed to calculate the m value of each strip from which the total m value is obtained. Applications to this procedure will be reported in Section 4.5. At this point, the reader s attention is drawn to the fact that the procedure of transforming 2D strips into ID chromatograms (see Fig. 4.7) once more corresponds to the overlapping mechanisms described in Fig. 4.2 and has been evocated in comparing Fig. 4.4 with Fig. 4.3. In this way, if random structures (e.g., such as those marked in Fig. 4.1b) are present, their memory is lost and the 2D pattern is reduced to a Poissonian ID one. Therefore, the number of SCs can be correctly estimated, even if the 2D pattern was not Poissonian. 

In the 2D autocovariance function plot (Fig. 4.13b) well defined deterministic cones are evident along the Ap7 axis at values ApH 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 pH they are related to the constant interdistances repeated in the spot trains. This behavior is more clearly shown by the intersection of the 2D autocovariance function with the Ap7 separation axis. The inset in Fig. 4.13b reports the 2D autocovariance function plots computed on the same map with (red line) and without (blue line) the spot train. A comparison between the two lines shows that the 2D autocovariance function peaks at 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 ApH (red line) clearly identifying the presence of the spot train singling out this ordered pattern from the random complexity of the map (blue line, from map without the spot train). The difference between the two lines identifies the contribution of the two components to the complex separation the blue line corresponds to the random separation pattern present in the map the red line describes the order in the 2D map due to the superimposed spot train. The high sensitivity of the 2D autocovariance function method in detecting order is noted in fact it is able to detect the presence of only sevenfold repetitiveness hidden in a random pattern of 200 proteins (Pietrogrande et al., 2005). 

Incomplete (N-linked) glycosylation prompts decreased in vivo activity due to more rapid hepatic clearance of the EPO molecule. Enzymatic removal of terminal sialic acid sugar residues from oligosaccharides exposes otherwise hidden galactose residues. These residues are then free to bind specific hepatic lectins, which promote EPO removal from the plasma. The reported plasma tm value for native EPO is 4-6 h. The tm for desialated EPO is 2 min. Comparison of native human EPO with its recombinant form produced in CHO cells reveals very similar glycosylation patterns. 

People without MCS can become aware of the segment of the population that has become hidden from them because of industrial culture s refusal to moderate its rush to economic growth through exploitation of the environment. Rather than being a negligible small number, a rural household study showed that one third of the population reports some illness from chemical exposures, and four percent of people report becoming ill every single day from chemicals. This amounts to over 11 million people in the U.S. alone who suffer daily from chemically induced symptoms. Two other studies document MCS as a worldwide problem.
