In this paper we focus on risk and uncertainty caused by the (1) discretionary behavior of regulatory bodies and (2) the instruments and mechanisms implemented to regulate public services in general and the postal sector in particular. In previous articles ...
This report comprises an overview of bioenergy developments and policies, a commentary on these developments which highlights some of the opportunities and risks of bioenergy, and presents the International Risk Governance Council’s risk governance guideli ...
Abstract— Research in robotics is becoming an ever more applied science. Roboticists acknowledge the existence of a role for experiments in their research, but whether the results of such experiments provide useful information to the intended industry or p ...
With this concept note, IRGC intends to help improve the understanding and governance of emerging risks that have impacts on human health and safety, the environment, the economy and society at large. It draws from a roundtable discussion in 2009 about why ...

An extensive set of experimental data, for zero pressure gradient boundary layers, over a wide range of Reynolds number is re-evaluated with the help of a composite profile fitted to the mean-velocity data. Boundary layer parameters such as Pi, H and the t ...
