Lessons Learnt

A new approach of partnership between client and inspection service organisations has been established primarily for the North Sea but increasingly finding application elsewhere Benefits accrue to all parties and the technical and commercial lessons learnt in the process have relevance to a wide range of other industries. 

Phase 3 - Implementation. This phase is often called the post-experimental stage. It is about acting on the results and communicating the lessons learnt. Some points on the process are given below ... 

Communicate lessons learnt through the business and included in training programmes.

Lest it be thought that the techniques to be described are only for the affluent institution, the author wishes to emphasise that he has only ever worked in under-funded laboratories, was brought up before, during, and after the war in a string-and-sealing wax tradition, and ever heeded Lord Rutherford s exhortation to his team at the Cavendish Laboratory We ve got no money, boys, so we ve got to think. Very many of the author s collaborators came from or went to laboratories far better endowed than his, but were all the better for the lessons learnt in a do it yourself atmosphere. That is also the reason why there are few references to sophisticated, expensive apparatus and why this book may have a slightly old-fashioned look. 

Presently, thermodynamic data bases for environmental chemistry are far from being complete. We believe that many built-in data bases of geochemical codes that include an impressive number of data for aqueous species and solid phases for most elements may easily produce incorrect results if used without criticism. Indeed, one of the main lessons learnt during our update exercise is that completeness and reliability of the data are mutually exclusive. On the other hand, reducing the data base to a small number of best thermodynamic data severely limits its field of applicability. Thus, in order to model specific systems of fundamental relevance for radioactive waste disposal we were forced to make compromises and had to include estimated constants.

The lessons learnt from the Ml program has a bearing on food products testing. Hence, a brief discussion of the Ml program is given before discussing the applications of extensional rheometry to food products. 

Science has become a part of our lives. Applications of science have provided us many benefits, and a better quality of life. The world today uses a language which has a lot of science in it. Without knowing, we use many words and phrases derived from science. We are also becoming conscious of our environment as well as our economy. Science has much to do with both these aspects. It is, therefore, important to learn the language of science. Children and adults alike have to know the rudiments of science and must be able to use the language of science where necessary. They must be able to apply the lessons learnt from science in daily life. 

As many countries are currently reviewing their administrative structures in anticipation of REACH, the experiences of regulation in France, Germany, Sweden and the UK may serve as a series of lessons learnt for other countries.

Application of the lessons learnt in the self-assembly of molecular squares has led to successful strategies for preparing further molecular polygons (and, in particular, new triangles, rectangles and hexagons) as well as examples of particular other polyhedra. ... 

The Epilogue recapitulates the lessons learnt from our experience of applying computational flow modeling while addressing practical reactor engineering... 

At this juncture, it would be useful to re-examine the lessons learnt from our experience of the application of computational flow modeling to reactor engineering. From our experience, it is extremely important to correctly ...

This chapter presents lessons learnt in connection with the national allocation plan for Denmark (Ministry of Environment 2004). Section 1.1 outlines some particular features of the Danish energy sector and the historical CO2 emissions. Section 1.2 describes the previous experience with emissions trading in Denmark, and Section 1.3 describes the process and milestones in the production of the Danish National Allocation Plan (NAP). 

This book originated from a EU project on Lessons Learnt from the National Allocation of Allowances , sponsored by the European Commission s Directorate General for Environment. We would therefore like to thank the European Commission for financial support, and Jos Delbeke and Peter Zapfel for their intellectual engagement and guidance.

James Black, who was one of the most important contributors in the development of the /6-blockers, applied the lesson learnt there for the development of the most successful drug of the 1980s. He and others interpreted the observation that alkyl-substituted histamine analogs did not exhibit equal activity on histamine receptors in different tissues as a result of the existence of more than one histamine receptor. Indeed, it could be...

After the basic principles of information transfer from genes to proteins had been established with the identification of messenger RNA, the discovery of the medianism of protein synthesis and the structure of genetic code, it was natural for some of us to ask whether the lessons learnt in molecular biology could be applied to the genetics of more complex phenotypes. ... 

Unlike earlier editions of Drugs and Money this volume devotes considerable attention to the special problems of developing countries and those where the economy is currently in transition. While lessons learnt in one type of national environment may prove applicable in another, it is important to realise that the situation in western industrialized countries still differs substantially from that elsewhere. Although the nature of the problem of cost containment may be the same, transitional and less-developed countries do not find it easy to adopt many of the solutions developed by western-industrialised countries. Conversely, some of the approaches which have been developed in the developing world would not be applicable to industrial society. 

We now arrive at a principle of enormous importance. and ifts are both satisfactory functions in so far as they express the rule about the product of independent probabilities, without attributing statistical significance to interchanges of identical particles. But they cannot both be vaUd functions for a real system at the same time. If they were, a linear combination of both of them would also be valid, and a linear combination of i/r and ifig leads straight back to ip l)i/jj, 2) or to i ij(l) (2) which reassert the distinguishability of particles. Hence for real systems— if the lessons learnt from the insufficiency of Boltzmann s statistical scheme are correct— the wave function must be either symmetrical or antisymmetrical, but it cannot be both.
