Decision Theory and Proof Standards for Future Crimes: Possible Uses and Open Questions

open access: yesBehavioral Sciences &the Law, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT What should be the proof standard for applying preventive criminal sanctions based on an establishment of risk of reoffending? This is an open question in legal systems around the world. Various authors suggest that we can answer it by using decision theory. This approach conceptualises the proof standard as a probabilistic threshold. A person

Comparison of modelling approaches for liquid fluidized beds

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract This study presents a comparison of three promising numerical models for the detailed simulation of liquid–solid fluidized bed. These models differ in their treatment of the solid phase, ranging from treating each particle individually to treating the collection of particles as a continuum.
