The fourth step is to construct a new trial charge density. To this end the programme evaluates the moments of the projected state densities and inserts these together with the partial waves and their energy derivatives into (6.41, 8.30). The moment calculation is based on a set of projected state densities obtained in previous runs of LMTO and DDNS where the potential parameters used in LMTO could be those given in step three, i.e. constructed from a renormalised atomic potential, in a previous separate run of SCFC. The moments are evaluated by...

The difficulty in assessing the effectiveness of patient safety interventions is the same as that for all programme evaluations it is difficult to find rigorous studies that measure programme effectiveness quantitatively. There have been a number of recent reviews of patient safety initiatives and their effectiveness. Morello et al. (2012) reviewed over 2,000 articles and found only 21 studies meeting their inclusion criteria for study rigour. They concluded that there is some evidence to support the theory that leadership walk rounds and multi-faceted unit-based programmes may have a positive impact on patient safety chmate. 

Project network techniques provide a means to determine the sequence of activities and their subsequent scheduling. Through a network analysis process, also referred to as CPM (critical path method) or PERT (programme evaluation review technique), constituent project activities are assembled into a logical, diagrammatic model, and then analysed in terms of time and resource. The planning sequence runs as follows ...

The test application of the screening method demonstrated that the approach is based on sound concepts and can be effectively used in plants. It can be considered a good method for the periodic safety review. It can also be used in a limited scope for review of the plant quality assurance programme, evaluation of plant modifications and evaluation of events or precursors. Because of the wide scope of the aspects reviewed, the approach can effectively support the questioning attitude as part of the plant safety culture. 

This part of the analysis helps the analyst to generalise the specific findings from one specific accident investigation or safety-programme evaluation. Events and conditions of the S-branch thus often have their counterparts in the M-branch. By querying the M-branch, the analyst is able to move his or her focus from the specific circumstances at the accident site to the total management system. The recommendations from this analysis will affect many other accident risks as well. 

Critical path analysis and programme evaluation and review techniques are examples of project network techniques.
