Implicit and explicit risk perception, affect, and trust : an investigation of food "traffic lights" [PDF]
Obesity is a health problem in many developed countries and is a growing problem worldwide. In an effort to improve food choices the "traffic lights" nutritional labelling system has been developed.

Work-related road safety: An analysis based on U.K. bus driver performance [PDF]
The effects of age and experience on accident involvement for bus drivers were investigated, with special emphasis upon the first years of being an operator, using two methods.

A risk management framework for software engineering practice [PDF]
Formal risk analysis and management in software engineering is still an emerging part of project management. We provide a brief introduction to the concepts of risk management for software development projects, and then an overview of a new risk ...

Impact-Detection Algorithm That Uses Point Clouds as Topographic Inputs for 3D Rockfall Simulations
Numerous 3D rockfall simulation models use coarse gridded digital terrain model (DTM raster) as their topography input. Artificial surface roughness is often added to overcome the loss of details that occurs during the gridding process. Together with the

Quantification of climate change impact on dam failure risk under hydrological scenarios: a case study from a Spanish dam [PDF]
Dam safety is increasingly subjected to the influence of climate change. Its impacts must be assessed through the integration of the various effects acting on each aspect, considering their interdependencies, rather than just a simple accumulation of ...

The effect of random field parameter uncertainty on the response variability of composite structures
The accurate quantification of the random spatial variation of material properties at different scales is crucial for the systematic propagation of uncertainties through engineering models.

Security engineering risk analysis (SERA) [PDF]
In this presentation, I describe how the SEI’s Security Engineering Risk Analysis (SERA) method provides a structure that connects desired system functionality with the underlying software to evaluate the sufficiency of requirements for software security and the potential operational security risks based on mission impact.

Automated terrestrial laser scanning with near-real-time change detection – monitoring of the Séchilienne landslide [PDF]
We present an automated terrestrial laser scanning (ATLS) system with automatic near-real-time change detection processing. The ATLS system was tested on the Séchilienne landslide in France for a 6-week period with data collected at 30 min intervals ...

The pathogen construct in risk analysis [PDF]
Project risk analysis has traditionally emphasized the analysis of external threats. Here we argue that internal decisions and structures are more fundamental, because they determine which external events pose risks to project management.
