Abstract:
I begin by exploring the distinction between the physiologic, quantitative, and qualitative conceptions of futility. I argue that if medical futility is going to be a useful and appropriate normative tool in the medical lexicon, it should not duplicate and confuse judgments which we already have the tools to make. Hence, I distinguish qualitative futility from the concepts of distributive justice, rationing, harm, and insufficient benefit. Lastly, I consider the argument that providing qualitative futility violates professional integrity. Next I consider the claim that futility judgments are a

Abstract:
The doctrine of informed consent established a distinctive role for both the doctor and the patient, in the doctor-patient relationship. This doctrine, represented by the compound word "informed consent" placed a duty on the physician to "inform" and gave a specific task to the patient "consent." The physician was required to inform the patient to the extent that a reasonable person in that situation would want to be informed. Then the patient had the prerogative of whether to consent or refuse to consent. However, during the late 1980's and early 1900's different clinical situations arose whi

Abstract:
While the concept of medical futility has existed for as long as medicine has been practiced, it remains a controversial issue that has become more clouded as medicine has advanced. This thesis will explore futility in the most technologically rich and emotionally charged of settings, the intensive care unit. The complex interactions of biology, ethics and the law, with their competing and sometimes conflicting interests will be explored. Disputes between patients, families and health care workers over life-sustaining interventions occur most often in the ICU, and the factors that influ

The Financial Crisis which began in 2007/2008 remains the most severe since the Great Depression of the 1930s. It exposes the inherent dangers of unregulated markets and highlights the weaknesses of the corporate governance system that has been constructed and determined by the shareholder primacy theory. The crisis sparked and intense debate on the causes and the response needed to correct the largely dysfunctional governance, legal and regulatory regime that has characterised the pre-crisis corporate governance landscape.

Abstract:
This thesis addresses the mechanics of executive remuneration from an unorthodox perspective; the view presented through the lens of imperfect market pricing. Whilst many of the criticisms of existing compensation arrangements are merited, they ignore the integrity of a crucial aspect of the way remuneration awards are calculated; the market pricing mechanism. The original contribution of knowledge of this thesis is to explain how imperfect market pricing undermines the utility of stock-based compensation awards, especially in light of the Global Financial Crisis of 2007-11 (‘GFC’).The existin

Abstract:
Abstract Since the dawn of mankind, or at least since the advent of the very first accelerated corrosion cabinet, it has been the goal of coatings evaluators to develop an accelerated corrosion testing protocol which reflects the real world of corrosion in totality. There have been passionate arguments promoting one or another testing protocol while demonizing others, but that one protocol has yet to be developed to everyone’s satisfaction. While the simplistic notion of one accelerated corrosion testing protocol is appealing, it is naïve to believe this Holy Grail is actually attainable. Moth

Abstract:
Abstract A previous paper presented by the authors at SSPC 2015 demonstrated the futility and folly of attempting to use accelerated corrosion testing as a tool for predicting real world corrosion performance. The effect of corrosion was shown to be governed by the type of ions and the concentration of oxygen in the corrosion environment. By understanding these two factors, accelerated corrosion testing can, however, be used as an indicator of performance which may be encountered in the real world. This indicator may show what effect an environment may have on coating/substrate, thus providing

Abstract Previous papers by two of the authors have examined 1) the futility of attempting to correlate accelerated corrosion testing results to real world corrosion observations, and 2) how corrosion testing is useful as an indicator of performance without the need for real world correlation and what may be expected in a corrosive environment and how these results can be usefully applied in the real world. This third paper in the trilogy, examines a specific attribute of accelerated corrosion testing, that being the utility of wet/dry cycling testing versus continuous fog methods. For 30+ yea
