TASER® Conducted Electrical Weapons: Physiology, Pathology, and Law
by Jeffrey D. Ho Mark W. KrollTASER® Conducted Electrical Weapons are rapidly replacing the club for law-enforcement control of violent subjects within many countries around the globe. A TASER CEW is a hand-held device that delivers a 400-volt pulse with a duration tuned to control the skeletal muscles without affecting the heart at a distance of up to 6.5 meters over tiny wires. If necessary, it begins with an arcing voltage of 50,000 V to penetrate thick clothing; the 50,000 V is never delivered to the body itself. Due to the widespread usage of these devices and the widespread misconceptions surrounding their operation, this book will have significant utility. This volume is written for cardiologists, emergency physicians, pathologists, law enforcement management, corrections personnel, and attorneys.
TAX HAVENS and Corporate Strategies - Essays on Offshore Investments
by Antonio C. T. de Mello Raul Adalberto de CamposA incerteza política, uma economia volátil, agressões ao sigilo bancário, as ameaças à manutenção da riqueza, aumento da carga fiscal, os serviços governamentais deficientes para compensar o pagamento de impostos, administração pública ineficaz, crises sociais, o medo .. Neste contexto caótico, empresários buscarem constantemente alternativas para salvaguardar os seus investimentos a partir de "confisco legal" resultante da tributação extremamente elevada direta e indireta em que os cidadãos são submetidos. Em um mundo que está cada dia mais inter-conectado, o conhecimento e divulgação de novas oportunidades de negócios e oportunidades de investimento alternativas que existem fora das fronteiras nacionais torna-se uma oportunidade cada vez mais atraente, especialmente quando associada a uma redução em impostos e um aumento da possível lucros obtidos possível através dos assim chamados "paraísos fiscais" ou "Jurisdições Fiscais Privilegiados" .. Apesar de existir uma linha tênue entre a evasão fiscal (legal) e evasão (ilegal), essas práticas e estratégias de negócios quando colocado em prática de acordo com um programa fiscal anterior e cuidadosamente preparado, em conjunto com um estudo aprofundado das estruturas jurídicas no exterior, de fato representam uma oportunidade excepcional para o lucro e também para proteger os ativos e outras formas de riqueza, dentro dos limites da legislação em vigor. Mais do que uma opção para proteger a privacidade pessoal e financeira dos cidadãos que vivem em um universo no mar, o investimento e novas oportunidades de negócio descritas aqui representam verdadeiras oportunidades para qualquer pessoa com a curiosidade de descobrir um novo mundo ainda a ser explorado. Junte-se a esta aventura, esqueça os preconceitos, descobrir um novo mundo no universo offshore e, principalmente, ser livre para pensar, aprender como se comportar e acumular sua propriedade p

TBM Excavation in Difficult Ground Conditions: Case Studies from Turkey
by Nuh Bilgin Hanifi Copur Cemal BalciThe book relates experience of TBM drives in difficult geology, making use of case studies from Turkey to demonstrate the influence of the local geotechnical conditions on the selection of a tunnel boring machine and the selection of tools. There is an extensive description how various geological phenomena, such as for example transition zones, dikes, rock discontinuities, blocky ground, squeezing ground, swelling clays and high strength and abrasive rocks, can reduce the advance rate and what countermeasures can be introduced. There is also a discussion of necessary advance probing and safety measures. Since the presented practical experience from Turkey can also be applicable for other tunnel projects in difficult geology, the book represents a valuable source of knowledge for every tunneler.

TECHNOLOGY PATHWAYS: Assessing the Integrated Plan for a Next Generation Air Transportation System
by National Research Council of the National AcademiesIn 2003, Congress directed the Secretary of Transportation to establish the Next Generation Air Transportation System (NGATS) Joint Planning and Development Office (JDPO) to plan the development of an air transportation system capable of meeting potential air traffic demand for 2025. All federal agencies involved in aviation participate in the JDPO providing the opportunity overcome many of the major barriers to developing an effective NGATS. To assist this process, the NRC was asked to examine the first NGATS Integrated Plan prepared by JPDO and submitted to Congress in 2004. This report provides a review of the vision and goals, the operational concepts, and the R&D roadmap developed by the plan; an analysis of the JDPO integrated product teams created to carry out the planning; and an assessment of the implementation process.

THz Communications: Paving the Way Towards Wireless Tbps (Springer Series in Optical Sciences #234)
by Tadao Nagatsuma Thomas Kürner Daniel M. MittlemanThis book describes the fundamentals of THz communications, spanning the whole range of applications, propagation and channel models, RF transceiver technology, antennas, baseband techniques, and networking interfaces. The requested data rate in wireless communications will soon reach from 100 Gbit/s up to 1 Tbps necessitating systems with ultra-high bandwidths of several 10s of GHz which are available only above 200 GHz. In the last decade, research at these frequency bands has made significant progress, enabling mature experimental demonstrations of so-called THz communications, which are thus expected to play a vital role in future wireless networks. In addition to chapters by leading experts on the theory, modeling, and implementation of THz communication technology, the book also features the latest experimental results and addresses standardization and regulatory aspects. This book will be of interest to both academic researchers and engineers in the telecommunications industry.
THz and Security Applications
by Carlo Corsi Fedir SizovThese proceedings comprise invited papers from highly experienced researchers in THz technology and security applications. THz detection of explosives represents one of the most appealing technologies to have recently emerged in dealing with terrorist attacks encountered by civil security and military forces throughout the world. Discussed are the most advanced technologies and developments, the various points of operational strength and weaknesses as well as are suggestions and predictions the best technological solutions to overcome current operational limits The current status of various levels of cooling in THz detectors, sources and associated electronics are also addressed. The goal was to provide a clear view on the current technologies available and the required advances needed in order to achieve more efficient systems. This goal was outlined in part by establishing the baseline of current uncertainty estimations in physics-based modelling and the identification of key areas which require additional research and development.
