Joint Event Example

In this example, a safety manger wishes to determine the probability of an employee being involved in a vehicle accident and the driver has fewer than five years of experience with the company. An analysis indicates that the probability of any one employee

It should be also observed that the average mutual information is an example of KL entropy deficiency measuring the missing information between the joint probabilities P(aAft) = 71 of the dependent events a and b, and the joint probabilities P (aAfc) = = p q of the independent joint events I(p q) = A5( iIji°). The average... 

The chemistry of the metalloenzymes must be considered as a special case of enzymic catalysis since most active sites of enzymes are stereospecific for only one molecule or class of molecules and many do not involve metal ions in catalysis. Since the metal ion is absolutely essential for catalysis in the examples chosen for this review, the mechanisms undoubtedly involve the metal ion and a particular protein microenvironment or reactive group(s) as joint participants in the catalytic event. It is our belief that studies of catalysis by metalloenzymes will have as many, if not more, features characteristic of protein catalysis in general, in a fashion similar to metal ion catalysis, and these studies will be directly applicable to heterogeneous and homogeneous catalytic chemical systems where the metal ion carries most of the catalytic function. 

Continuing the earlier example, if we enroll 5400 patients in 3 years plus follow patients for another 2 years and use a joint definition of safety, 95% Cl for risk ratio < 1.3% or 95% Cl for risk difference < 0.009, then we maintain power of 90% across the entire range of event rates. 

An example of this category is the field-assembly of two modular units. A joint between the units carries loads, but in the event of failure, the modules themselves could withstand loadings without the connection. 

An injury is a wound or damage to the body resulting from an event in the work environment. Examples include cuts, punctures, lacerations, abrasions, fractures, bruises, contusions, chipped teeth, amputations, insect bites, electrocution, or thermal, chemical, electrical, or radiation bums. Classify sprains and strain injuries to muscles, joints, and connective tissues as injuries when they result from a slip, trip, fall, or other similar accidents. 

The temperature resistance of elastic adhesives is low in comparison to mechanical assembly techniques. It is comparable with the temperature resistance of thermoplastics and is adequate for most applications under normal stress conditions (i.e. outdoor applications with no exposure to any additional or concentrated heat source). However, the possible effects of overheating of the adhesive (in the event of fire, for example) must be taken into account at the design stage. If there is any risk that the failure of an adhesive joint as a result of overheating could cause personal injury or collateral damage, then additional mechanical safeguards should be incorporated into the design. 

Tertiary containment minimises the consequences of a failure in the primary and secondary containment systems by providing an additional barrier preventing the uncontrolled spread of hazardous liquid. Tertiary containment is achieved by means external to and independent of the primary and secondary containment systems, such as site drainage and sumps, diversion tanks, impervious liners and/or flexible booms. Tertiary containment will be utilised when there is an event that causes the loss of containment (for example bund joint failure or firewater overflowing from a bund during a prolonged tank fire), and is intended to ensure that loss of control of hazardous materials does not result from such an event. 

Discussion The results of this study indicate that muscle weakness is an independent risk factor for OA onset and progression. Needless to say that in an in-vivo study with freely ambulating animals, muscle weakness may cause a series of contaminating conditions for example, altered gait patterns, and changed behavior. Nevertheless, whatever the detailed reasons for the increased knee joint degeneration following quadriceps weakness, weakness was the catalyst for these events to occur.
