Performance triggers

There are a number of performance triggers within the master trust transactions that serve to protect the senior noteholders against certain events. These events can be divided into two categories asset performance related and nonasset related. 

An asset performance trigger event would occur if a principal deficiency is recorded in the Class A Principal Deficiency Ledger. This means that the total balance of realised losses that have not been covered by either the reserve fund or with excess spread exceed the aggregate outstanding amount of the subordinate notes. If this occurs, all receipts on the mortgages will be allocated to the issuers and the seller on a pro rata basis. The notes will start to redeem early with all the Class A notes being redeemed on a pro rata basis. When all the Class A notes have been redeemed in full, the Class B notes would be redeemed, and so on for all other classes of notes until all the notes are redeemed or the trust no longer has any assets. 

Loan structure is more than just leverage (an area previously discussed). It includes such elements as the loan amortisation schedule and any performance triggers such as minimum debt service cover ratios. These should also be considered in any credit analysis. 

Check incoming data for seismic events (perform triggering) and store only real events. This might not be needed if the system has a large ring buffer but is often an option in order to get a quick idea of recorded events. Most present recording systems will record in continuous form. 

The war itself also drove the development of improved and miniaturised electronic components for creating oscillators and amplifiers and, ultimately, semiconductors, which made practical the electronic systems needed in portable eddy current test instruments. The refinement of those systems continues to the present day and advances continue to be triggered by performance improvements of components and systems. In the same way that today s pocket calculator outperforms the large, hot room full of intercormected thermionic valves that I first saw in the 50 s, so it is with eddy current instrumentation. Today s handheld eddy current inspection instrument is a powerful tool which has the capability needed in a crack detector, corrosion detector, metal sorter, conductivity meter, coating thickness meter and so on. 

A suitable locldug mechanism must ensure that the production plant can be started up again only if the explosion suppression svstem is fiilly operational. The alarm center must be designed so that, if work is performed within the protected vessel, the detectors can be made inoperable and secured against inadvertent triggering. 

Other than wipe sampling of elean areas, the Site J eontraetor did not implement proeedures to evaluate the eflfeetiveness of personal deeontamination methods. Deeontaminated equipment was tested by wipe sampling. Further deeontamination was performed as neeessary until wipe samples fell below the eontraetor s trigger levels. 

Internal error mechanisms can be regarded as intrinsic human error tendencies. The particular error mechanisms that will be triggered depend on the performance-influencing factors (PIFs) in the situation (see Chapter 3). However, use of Figure 2.16 allows certain preliminary conclusions to be drawn. 

In the previous chapter, a comprehensive description was provided, from four complementary perspectives, of the process of how human errors arise during the tasks typically carried out in the chemical process industry (CPI). In other words, the primary concern was with the process of error causation. In this chapter the emphasis will be on the why of error causation. In terms of the system-induced error model presented in Chapter 1, errors can be seen as arising from the conjunction of an error inducing environment, the intrinsic error tendencies of the human and some initiating event which triggers the error sequence from this imstable situation (see Figure 1.5, Chapter 1). This error sequence may then go on to lead to an accident if no barrier or recovery process intervenes. Chapter 2 describes in detail the characteristics of the basic human error tendencies. Chapter 3 describes factors which combine with these tendencies to create the error-likely situation. These factors are called performance-influencing factors or PIFs. 

The gaseous emissions from the FCC unit are CO, NOj, particulates, and SOj. All are either locally or nationally regulated. Table 10-7 shows the current allowable limits of the EPA New Source Performance Standards (NSPS) for the emissions of these airborne pollutants. NSPS levels can be triggered by one of the following conditions ... 

In order to be successful as part of a medical device a polymer has to resist both biological rejection by the patient s body and degradation. The human body is an enviromnent which is simultaneously hostile and sensitive, so that materials for application in medicine must be carefully selected. The essential requirement is that these materials are biocompafible with the particular part of the body in which they are placed. The extent to which polymers fulfil this requirement of biocompafibility depends partly on the properties of the polymer and partly on the location in which they are expected to perform. For example the requirements for blood biocompafibility are stringent since blood coagulation may be triggered by a variety of materials. By contrast, the requirements for materials to be used in replacement joints in orthopaedic surgery are less severe and materials as diverse as poly (methyl methacrylate) and stainless steel can be used with minimal adverse reaction from the body. 

Given the unexpected occurrence of anaphylaxis, the rapidity with which symptoms evolve after exposure to the trigger, and the observation that delay in epinephrine injection is associated with fatality [15, 16], randomized controlled trials of epinephrine in anaphylaxis will not be easy to conduct however, it is time to consider the possibility of performing such trials. Future directions with regard to studies of the optimal dose and optimal route of administration of epinephrine in anaphylaxis that do not involve a placebo control will be outlined at the end of this review [17]. 

This first strategy was used by Setton and coworkers to trigger the in situ formation of an ELP-based dmg depot for sustained release. Biodistribution studies of radiolabeled LLPs with a below body temperature were performed after intra-articular injection in rats [94]. Later, dmg depots of ELPs with covalently attached immunomodulator therapeutics [95] and anti-TNLa therapeutics [96] were created. Respectively, ELP[V-120] and ELP[V-60] biopolymers with a transition below body temperature were used in these studies.
