This paper introduces a simple model for subsurface light transport in translucent materials. The model enables efficient simulation of effects that BRDF models cannot capture, such as color bleeding within materials and diffusion of light across shadow boundaries. The technique is efficient even

Safety through international standards “Governments, regulatory bodies and operators everywhere must ensure that nuclear material and radiation sources are used beneficially, safely and ethically. The IAEA safety standards are designed to facilitate this, and I encourage all Member States to make

During the 126 th meeting of the Advisory Committee on Nuclear Waste, May 15-17, 2001, the Committee considered the subject revision to the rule, and decided not to review it at this time. The Committee has no objection to issuing this rulemaking plan for public comment. The Committee would like to have the opportunity to review the proposed rule after the reconciliation of public comments.

on the interfirm mobility of patent holders, we empirically show that the interfirm mobility of engineers influences the local transfer of knowledge. The flow of knowledge is embedded in regional labor networks. (Knowledge; Spillovers; Mobility; Regions; Networks) Ideas, because they have no material content

ABSTRACT Plutonium bearing materials packaged for long term storage per the Department of Energy Standard 3013 (DOE-STD-3013) are required to be examined periodically in a non-destructive manner (i.e. without compromising the storage containers) for pressure buildup. Radiography is the preferred

Location and climate have large effects on income levels and income growth through their effects on transport costs, disease burdens, and agricultural productivity, among other channels. Geog-raphy also seems to affect economic policy choices. Many geographic regions that have not been conducive

decedents ’ bodies are contaminated with radioactive material (e.g. reactor accidents, transportation accidents involving radioactive material, or the discharge of a decedent from a hospital after injection or implantation of a radiopharmaceutical). These guidelines suggest ways for medical examiners

A. Each licensee who transports licensed material outside the site of usage, as specified in the department license, or where transport is on public highways, of the confines of his plant, or other place of use, or who delivers licensed material to a carrier for transport, shall comply

As directed by the Manager, Packaging Certification Program (PCP) of the DOE Office of Safety Management and Operations, Environmental Management, two packaging QA audits were conducted to evaluate implementation of the QA program requirements for Type B radioactive and fissile material

other applicable regulatory agencies, including the government of any country through or into which the package will be transported.
