Communicating With Residents About Risks Following the Fukushima Nuclear Accident.
The Fukushima nuclear accident in March 2011 posed major threats to public health. In response, medical professionals have tried to communicate the risks to residents. To investigate forms of risk communication and to share lessons learned, we reviewed medical professionals' activities in Fukushima Prefecture from the prefectural level to the individual level: public communication through Fukus...
متن کاملRobust and Reliability-Based Design
The idea behind this special supplement came out of discussions with the Editor, Dr. Michael McCarthy, about the need to present some recent advances in the area of risk-based and robust design. We felt, and still feel, that there is an ever increasing need to design mechanical and structural systems that are risk tolerant and robust. It was our belief that it would be useful if, by way of a de...
متن کاملRobust Design and Reliability-based Design Optimization
A large number of problems in manufacturing processes, production planning, finance and engineering design require an understanding of potential sources of variations and quantification of the effect of variations on product behavior and performance. Traditionally, in engineering problems uncertainties have been formulated only through coarse safety factors. Such methods often lead to overdesig...
متن کاملDeterministic Design, Reliability-Based Design and Robust Design
Due to the inherent uncertainties or variabilities in loads, materials and manufacturing quality, variabilities are unavoidable in structural responses. To ensure the reliability of a structure, these uncertainties or variabilities must be considered during structural design. Through a simple cantilever box beam example, the concepts and practices of three design methodologies: deterministic de...
متن کاملRobust Design: An Experiment-based Approach to Design for Reliability
Robust design uses the parameter design approach of Genichi Taguchi to optimize designs of products and processes with the objective of building in insensitivity to noise. Noise is any kind of uncontrolled variation in the environment of operation of the product or process that could affect performance. If we recognize how variation in the environment (e.g., energy source, raw materials, heat a...
