A consequence of this long project cycle is that the number of major customers deploying systems at any one time is relatively small. 

Although this book focuses on a complete project, it does not mean that you have slavishly to follow through all the steps of a project In order to benefit from it. How far you Involve yourself in the total project cycle, or even use this book as a basis for experiential learning, is a matter for you to decide in the light of your particular needs and circumstances. You could ...

An excellent example of a decision trees is shown in Figure 27.8. This example outlines the IND regulatory review and approval process. Similar decision trees are developed by project teams within the biopharma-ceutical industry. Project teams are now being asked not only to construct decision trees, but to develop contingency plans based on "what-if" scenarios far in advance of the next decision points. The goal is to ensure that the project will not lose forward motion in the event of a "no" decision that requires rework or another loop through the project cycle, or a decision by the PMT that resources for a particular project are more urgently needed for another project. 

More specific than the case study is the overall scenario of the IMPROVE project. It defines which tools have to be incorporated into the design environment, it describes which runs of an exemplary design process are regarded, and how cooperation is carried out within one company or between different companies. Of course, the overall scenario is based on the case study. The scenario was the basis for an advanced environment for the first phases of a design process in connection with the case study example. Clearly, the overall scenario changed from project cycle to project cycle. 

Chapters 2 -6 describe the status of the IMPROVE project after the third project cycle. This description, for simplicity reasons and for giving a clear view on the scientific outcome, is organized along the corresponding subprojects of IMPROVE, essentially one section per subproject. This section collects the results of the first three cycles of an IMPROVE subproject, if the results are not overridden by later results. So, the book is not structured along the timeline. Instead, it is structured along results for specific topics elaborated by subprojects. 

For any coastal/maritime construction project the following general principles of prevention should be applied throughout the project cycle ... 

When the environmentally most critical components within a complete project cycle are identified (e.g. by their property or total amount), the pathway(s) should be analyzed by which these substances may reach critical concentrations in both man and associated foodwebs. This type of risk estimation, known as critical pathway analysis, is primarily based on the evaluation of existing speciation data, as exemplified in Fig. 3.2 for arsenic and mercury (Preston and Portmann 1981). The differentiation of the most toxic forms of both metals unveils rather early the really critical forms and pathways which these metals may take to reach sensitive targets. To focus on total concentrations alone would fail to understand and predict their true nature or to find out the really relevant routes of exposure. 

The diagram above covers the total project cycle from its initiation to its use. In a comparable way the principle of System Engineering is adopted in this Manual for the realization of hydraulic fill projects from the definition of the Client s needs to monitoring and quality control of the fill after completion. 

During the project cycle, design teams work with their sponsor, project manager, and advisor, to capture requirements develop plans and schedules analyze budgetary constraints conduct requirements analysis and design, implement, and test a solution. At the end of XXX 486, each student team is expected to deliver a complete and working product, prototype, or final design to their sponsor. 

Figure C3.6.5 The first two periodic orbits in the main subhannonic sequence are shown projected onto the (c, C2) plane. This sequence arises from a Hopf bifurcation of the stable fixed point for the parameters given in the text. The arrows indicate the direction of motion, (a) The limit cycle or period-1 orbit at k 2 = 0.11. (b) The first subhannonic or period-2 orbit at k 2 = 0.095.

The injection of large volumes of steam, steam flooding, is used to mobilize oil which is produced at offset production wells. Smaller volumes of steam are injected in the cycHc steam stimulation or huff n puff process (Eig. 2). Many wells are placed on several cycles of steam stimulation and then used as injection or production wells in steam flood projects. 

Li—Al/FeS cells have demonstrated good performance under EV driving profiles and have deUvered a specific energy of 115 Wh/kg for advanced cell designs. Cycle life expectancy for these cells is projected to be about 400 deep discharge cycles (63). This system shows considerable promise for use as a practical EV battery.
