Abstract:
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine the role of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened Species in achieving biodiversity conservation and preventing the extinction of species. The Red List is a calculative device that classifies species in terms of their exposure to the risk of extinction. Design/methodology/approach The paper draws on theorising in the Social Studies of Finance literature to analyse the Red List in terms of how it frames a space of calculability for species extinction. The analysis then traces the ways that this framin

Abstract:
This paper provides an argument against understanding risk-taking in design education as something ideally in need of only being calculable and formalisable. Using the German sociologist Ulrich Beck’s theory on risktaking combined with the current discourse on design thinking, together with an analysis of a three week-long interdisciplinary design workshop, we analyse and discuss how risk-taking - as a general concept - in design education is an inherent element of the education itself. We argue, however, non-calculable risks, like human-centred design concerns, like desirability of use, ethic

Abstract:
Abstract People have always lived under conditions of uncertainty. But how to deal with uncertainty and how security is produced varies depending on the social formation. This paper deals with the handling of uncertainty in modern societies. Modern societies always try to conceptualize uncertainties as action-related, responsible and calculable/predictable ‘risks’. This was a quite successful approach for a long time. However, under the conditions of ‘risk society’, this approach is increasingly difficult to work. Especially in the case of ‘new risks’, the attempt to conceptualize any uncertai

AbstractKatzenstein and Seybert's Protean Power offers a fresh perspective on the concept of power in international relations (IR) theory. Standard IR theory defines power as control power, which exists in the world of calculable risk. But IR must also grapple with protean power, which exists in the world of incalculable uncertainty. In this symposium, scholars representing a variety of theoretical perspectives evaluate the concept of protean power as it stands now and as it should develop in the future.

The overall aim of this PhD thesis was to conduct a comprehensive investigation of decision-making impairment in long term opiate users, using three studies. The first study aimed to determine the extent of the decision-making impairment and to establish whether other co-morbid factors impacted on the severity of this deficit. Using meta-analysis, the results indicated that opiate use is associated with relatively severe decision-making impairment, and that co-morbid factors, such as head injury and poly-substance dependence did not significantly change the magnitude of the impairment.

The Premium Risk results from fluctuation in timing of frequency and severity, of insured events, which ensure that the premiums income will be not enough to pay future claims. Since the level of the premiums income is based on actuarial techniques of pricing, which define the risk level of each profile in portfolio, it

Abstract:
This chapter studies calculative risk-assessment practices in credit rating agencies. It identifies two fundamentally different methodological approaches for producing ratings, which in turn shape the respective conceptions of credit risk. The traditional approach sees ‘risk’ as an only partially calculable and predictable set of hazards that should be avoided or minimized. This approach is particularly evident in the production of country credit ratings and gives rise to ordinal rankings of risk. By contrast, structured finance rating practices conceive of ‘risk’ as both fully calculable and

This nominalist impulse—summed up in the cry “show, don’t tell!”—has encouraged a deep wariness toward broad normative concepts: “good,” “bad,” “courage,” “justice,” etc. More than is often recognized, however, this literary skepticism parallels the skepticism toward such concepts in the natural sciences, which accords no place to such abstract “high words” in a world of matter and calculable motions.

The key to market risk is the calculation of position risk requirement (PRR). Basel 3 has radically changed the approach to the calculation of position risk for regulated firms, and this chapter deals with the ‘before and after’ element to it. A firm must calculate a PRR in respect of all its trading book positions, all foreign exchange positions, and all positions in commodities (including physical commodities) whether or not in the trading book. A firm must also be able to monitor its total PRR on an intra-day basis. The remainder of the chapter covers trading book eligibility under Basel 2.

Abstract:
Abstract Risk Based Inspection (RBI) of Above-Ground Atmospheric Storage Tanks is a process for determining the optimal run length of a tank before a costly and time-consuming internal inspection is required. There are various methods for calculating appropriate inspection intervals which rely on risk models. The risk calculations are generally based on the tank’s design, operation, and corrosion/inspection history. However, outside of API RP 581, there is little published material giving guidance on actual, quantitative models that can be used effectively to calculate risk. Probability and co

Abstract:
Abstract It has been well documented that improved desalting efficiency reduces the risk of corrosion and vice versa. The work life balance of the refinery corrosion engineer is frequently challenged by concerns that the risk of overhead corrosion is increasing as refineries process more challenging crudes and run lengths increase. One component of this problem is the risk of ammonia and amine salt formation. As the concentration of ammonia and amines increase, the probability of salt formation increases. Computer modelling is employed to calculate this risk and to assure the selection of a ne

Abstract:
Abstract New generation inspection tools are able to accurately detect and size every anomaly which may cause a risk for the safe operation of the pipeline. Pipetronix' experience is that many pipeline inspections with intelligent tools reveal a vast number of anomalies, especially in older pipelines. In many cases, only a few of these are actually serious and affect the integrity of the pipeline at the moment. Immediate remedial action is generally focused on the limited number of most severe defects. Consecutive inline inspections allow an indication of any corrosion growth along the pipelin

Abstract:
Abstract Historical management strategies for equipment subject to high temperature hydrogen attack (HTHA) have traditionally relied on risk assessment with empirical or quantitative models. Given a lack of confidence in early inspection techniques for HTHA, operation of equipment with known susceptibility to HTHA for prolonged service periods has been limited. A quantitative model for HTHA damage has been created based on void growth models combined with a creep model. This model has been calibrated to known failures and damage cases reported in industry (API 941). The results are time-based

Abstract:
Thinly traded securities exist in both emerging and well developed markets. However, plausible estimations of market risk measures for portfolios with infrequently traded securities have not been explored in the literature. We propose a methodology to calculate market risk measures based on the Kalman filter which can be used on incomplete datasets. We implement our approach in a fixed- income portfolio within a thin trading environment. However, a similar approach may be also applied to other markets with thinly traded securities. Our methodology provides reliable market risk measures in port

This paper investigates the application of option pricing to calculate the premium of deposit insurance in Thailand during 1992-1996 period. In addition to applying the traditional Black-Scholes model, the barrier model of Boyle and Lee (1994) is examined. The barrier model takes the management (owners) action into account: the management (owners) may have strong incentive to increase the volatility of the bank’s assets since this action in crease the value of their equity. As suggested by the stylized evidence, most financial institutions in Thailand were owned by “family” and there was inade

This paper reviews privacy-enhancing technologies (PETs) and explores their benefits when used to make traditional payment processes more private. PETs can decrease privacy risk by reducing the amount of sensitive information accessible to payment-processing personnel and systems. This paper proposes a framework for quantifying the risk-reduction benefits of PETs. This method can be used to calculate the amount of privacy-risk exposure that may be created by a set of payment activities, estimate the amount by which PETs can decrease that exposure, and compare that quantified benefit against po

The models used at present to evaluate the potential hazard areas around large LNG fires were developed with field test data from smaller diameter (1.8 m to 15 m) fires. These models are, however, applied to predict hazard distances from fires much larger in size compared to the experimental fires. Recent publication of the results from a series of tests conducted in 1987 with 35 m diameter LNG fires indicates that large LNG fires tend to generate significant amount of black soot. The black soot is postulated to be generated from incomplete and inefficient combustion of fuel vapors due to redu

Abstract:
Welds made onto in-service pipeline are particularly susceptible to hydrogen cracking because of the fast weld cooling rates that tend to result from the ability of the flowing contents to remove heat from the pipe wall. The most commonly used procedures for controlling the risk of hydrogen cracking rely on the use of a sufficiently high heat input level. Two methods currently exist for predicting required heat input levels for welds made onto in-service pipelines: thermal analysis computer modeling and the heat-sink capacity measurement method.

Inundation modeling is often conducted for levee systems to understand current flood risks. The extent of inundation caused by a breach in the levee is highly influenced by the widening rate of the levee breach. This study presents an approach for calculating levee-breach widening rates based on average flow velocity through the breach, embankment height, and erosion characteristics of the soil. Estimates of soil erodibility are derived through an analysis of the measurements of soil erodibility presented in the National Cooperative Highway Research Program (NCHRP) Report 915 database.
