Training ground

You can also use the pilot study to provide a training ground for the integration team, with care to avoid overwhelming the subject department with the whole integration team. It is unlikely that you can fmd realistic opportunities to involve the whole team directly. But you may be able to... [Pg.116]

Inert fuzes are provided for training ground crews in assembling handling of bombs, and also for classroom instruction of ordnance personnel. These fuzes are standard items, except that explosive components (primers, detonators, delay relay elements and boosters) are removed (Ref 51a, p 4-107)... [Pg.1008]

F) Bombs, Dummy. Completely inert bombs and components used for training ground crews in assembling, fuzing, unfuzing and other handling details of bombs. Each type and wt of service bomb is represented by a corresponding dummy bomb. Dummy bombs are constructed from the... [Pg.229]

Both the Ukrainian and Romanian Navy will become new partners in the theater of military operations of the USA European Command. Romanian military locations in Constanta on the Black Sea coast will become a base for NATO and USA troops on their movement to the Balkans. Here we mean military bases on the airfield Mikhail Kogelnichyanu not far from port Constanta and training grounds Babadag located to the north. [Pg.436]

In early days Alfred Nobel already replaced mercury fulminate (MF, see above), which he had introduced into blasting caps, with the safer to handle primary explosives lead azide (LA) and lead styphnate (LS) (Fig. 1.17). However, the long-term use of LA and LS has caused considerable lead contamination in military training grounds which has stimulated world-wide activities in the search for replacements that are heavy-metal free. In 2006 Huynh und Hiskey published a paper proposing iron and copper complexes of the type [cat]2[Mn(NT)4(H20)2] ([cat]+ = NH4, Na+ M = Fe, Cu NT = 5-nitrotetrazolate) as environmentally friendly, green primary explosives (Fig. 1.17) [3]. [Pg.23]

Primary explosives are substances which show a very rapid transition from deflagration to detonation and generate a shock-wave which makes transfer of the detonation to a (less sensitive) secondary explosive possible. Lead azide and lead styphnate are the most commonly used primary explosives today. However, the long-term use of these compounds (which contain the toxic heavy metal lead) has caused considerable lead contamination in military training grounds. Costly clean-up... [Pg.25]

There still is a need for intensive research (Fig. 2.1) in the area of the latter aspect of new secondary explosives (and not only for those ) in terms of low toxicity and environmental impact. Conventional energetic materials (TNT, RDX), which are currently used by NATO armies for training purposes on their training grounds, have an extremely negative ecological impact, if they end up unwanted and uncontrolled in the environment as unexploded munition (UXOs = unexploded ord-... [Pg.52]

In a lengthy obituary, her successor, Phyllis Sanderson, noted how Widdows had been one of the last of the remarkable women who staffed the School during the first forty years of this century, an uphill and critical period in the history of this medical school. 09 Sanderson added As so many of her contemporaries, she was an ardent feminist and willingly sacrificed her own career as a chemist for the cause most dear to her heart, the training of women doctors at Hunter Street, the only training ground in Medicine open to women in England at that time. 69... [Pg.161]

Smith was ecstatic over Maisch s work at the lab, and by every indication there was mutual admiration. Working as a team—with Smith as administrator handling the politics and dealing with the military brass, and Maisch as the de facto chief of operations monitoring production and all aspects of quality control—the lab was a success. Indeed, Maisch s lab served as a training ground for some of the nation s most able pharmaceutical chemists. One, C. Lewis Diehl... [Pg.110]

Even though total syntheses of some of the akuammiline alkaloids have now been achieved, this architecturally diverse class of alkaloids stiU requires full evaluation for biological activity, and as such provides both excellent training ground for aspiring organic chemists and complex architectures to test the hmits of modem chemistry methods. The akuammiline alkaloids should enable worthwhile research for years to come. [Pg.253]

But we had this hill that we called Bain s Gap. It had a road over the top which was about a 20-percent grade, or as we used to say uphill both ways. It was littered with WWI UXO (World War I UneXploded Ordnance) some more of it was found as recently as 2010. Ft. McClellan froze in winter and was a kiln in summer it was a perfect training ground and opportunity for weather-related injuries. [Pg.84]

Use the work site as a training ground, going to the applicable area for the topic being discussed. [Pg.72]

Obtain a copy of Part VI of the MUTCD to train employees on proper flagging. Remind them of the danger of vehicles approaching from behind and the need for a spotter, a motion detector, alarm, or hard-hat-mounted mirror. Demonstrate these devices. Use the jobsite as a training ground, if possible. [Pg.484]

Use the worksite as a training ground if possible. Dress as a worker with high-visibility garments and/or special equipment (i.e., radio, hard hat mounted mirror, and motion detectors). Explain that motorists and vehicle operators may not see workers on foot, so proper attire is important. Show slides of a site during the day, at night, in the rain, and in the fog. Have trainees sit in a vehicle to see an operator s view and its major blind spots. [Pg.488]
