Main conflict

They range from personal to legal matters with the usual main conflict between the private interests and the official responsibilities of a person in a position of trust such as the company s top executive officers or a government official or agency. 

The specification of a control scheme and the associated instrumentation for a chemical plant should satisfy several main objectives. First, the plant should operate at all times in a safe manner. Dangerous situations should be detected as early as possible and appropriate action initiated, also the process variables should be maintained within safe operating limits. Second, the plant should operate at the lowest cost of production. Finally, the production rate and the product quality must be maintained within specified operating limits. These objectives may be conflicting, and the final control scheme to be adopted is based upon a realistic and acceptable compromise between the various factors. The main conflict is between the need to design and operate as safe a plant as possible and the desire to produce the chemical at the lowest cost. Safe plant operation can be expensive, both in terms of the capital cost of instrumentation and the annual operating costs, e.g. maintenance. 

In any drama, the main conflict is the struggle between protagonist and antagonist—again, whether the antagonist is another character, a man-made disaster, a force of nature, or simply an aspect of the protagonist s own character. The more there is at stake, the more dramatic—in every sense of the word— the conflict. 

Some of the main conflict dimensions revealed by the interviews were ... 

The high T] values above conflict with the common behef that distillation is always inherendy inefficient. This behef arises mainly because past distillation practices utilized such high driving forces for pressure drop, tedux ratio, and temperature differentials in teboilets and condensers. A teal example utilizing an ethane—ethylene sphtter follows, in which the relative number for the theoretical work of separation is 1.0, and that for the net work potential used before considering driving forces is 1.4. 

Based on the collected information, a decision/action (DA) chart was developed to provide an overview of the main decisions involved in the blowdown operation and the main influential factors such as time stress, conflicting responsibilities, risk of gas ignition etc. Task Analysis and Error Analysis of the blowdown operation were subsequently carried out to obtain a description of the sequence of tasks steps and the likely human error modes which could occur. 

The first main challenge is to prevent persistent and harmful employee conflicts - that is, the balance between diversity and similarity (or organizational norms ) can in some cases lean too far toward diversity. This implies that the differences in perspectives, behaviours and work concepts become dysfunctional and lead to culture clashes (Loden and Rosener, 1991). The manifestation of these involves misunderstandings, feelings of threat... 

Compared with main-group compounds, one can therefore expect that Bent s rulelike geometrical variations in transition-metal compounds are somewhat muted (or exhibit conflicting patterns of increases and decreases, dependent on the isomer chosen), as the examples below will indicate. 

Achieving system qualities is an engineering task Frequently they conflict with one another. Some of the main qualities—often traditionally partitioned into functional and nonfunctional requirements—are briefly discussed next ... 

In an industry where there is virtually full employment, it is difficult to find framed CRCs and CRAs. So, conflicts can arise from inferacfion befween unfrained or inexperienced personnel. Sometimes, however, personality conflicts are the main culprit. Although technology can eliminate some of the need for CRA-CRC inferacfion, all parties need to understand the roles and pressures on the other person. For example, many CRAs travel 4 days a week and see various levels of work qualify af differenf sifes. On the other hand, CRCs are often responsible for more fhan one sfudy and have requests from multiple CRAs on any given day. In addition, the CRA must respond to the needs of the research participant first, which can cause time delays in completing data queries. 

Qualitative analysis has the main objective of confirming a given mechanistic hypothesis by rejection of conflicting alternatives. This may be applied to single elementary steps, the intermediates, or how the steps are linked together.
