Solution of the Applied Task to Determine Total Exposure for Mechanical Engineering Workers
In everyday life, people repeatedly exposed to ionizing radiation. Radiation sources is as natural background radiation due to the natural radioactivity of the earth, cosmic and solar radiation and artificial emitters in enterprise engineering. Therefore, the determination of the total human exposure in engineering industry will consist of a variety of
