Forensic DNA Profiling A Practical Guide to Assigning Likelihood Ratios

Forensic DNA Profiling A Practical Guide to Assigning Likelihood Ratios

DNA testing and its forensic analysis are recognized as the “gold standard” in forensic identification science methods. However there is a great need for a hands-on step-by-step guide to teach the forensic DNA community how to interpret DNA mixtures how to assign a likelihood ratio and how to use the subsequent likelihood ratio when reporting interpretation conclusions. Forensic DNA Profiling: A Practical Guide to Assigning Likelihood Ratios will provide a roadmap for labs all over the world and the next generation of analysts who need this foundational understanding. The techniques used in forensic DNA analysis are based upon the accepted principles of molecular biology. The interpretation of a good-quality DNA profile generated from a crime scene stain from a single-source donor provides an unambiguous result when using the most modern forensic DNA methods. Unfortunately many crime scene profiles are not single source. They are described as mixed since they contain DNA from two or more individuals. Interpretation of DNA mixtures represents one of the greatest challenges to the forensic DNA analyst. As such the book introduces terms used to describe DNA profiles and profile interpretation. Chapters explain DNA extraction methods the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) capillary electrophoresis (CE) likelihood ratios (LRs) and their interpretation and population genetic models—including Mendelian inheritance and Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium. It is important that analysts understand how LRs are generated in a probabilistic framework ideally with an appreciation of both semicontinuous and fully continuous probabilistic approaches. KEY FEATURES:• The first book to focus entirely on DNA mixtures and the complexities involved with interpreting the results • Takes a hands-on approach offering theory with worked examples and exercises to be easily understood and implementable by laboratory personnel • New methods heretofore unpublished previously provide a means to innovate deconvoluting a mixed DNA profile assign an LR and appropriately report the weight of evidence • Includes a chapter on assigning LRs for close relatives (i. e. “It’s not me it was my brother”) and discusses strategies for the validation of probabilistic genotyping softwareForensic DNA Profiling fills the void for labs unfamiliar with LRs and moving to probabilistic solutions and for labs already familiar with LRs but wishing to understand how they are calculated in more detail. The book will be a welcome read for lab professionals and technicians students and legal professionals seeking to understand and apply the techniques covered. | Forensic DNA Profiling A Practical Guide to Assigning Likelihood Ratios

Geomechanical Behaviors of Bimrocks

Geomechanical Behaviors of Bimrocks

This book is intended as a reference book for advanced graduate students and research engineers in block-in-matrix rocks (bimrocks) or soil and rock mixtures (SRMs) or rock and soil aggregate (RSA). Bimrocks are complex formations characterized by competent rock inclusions floating in a weaker matrix. Typical types of bimrocks include a series of mixed geological or engineering masses such as mélanges fault rocks coarse pyroclastic rocks breccias sheared serpentines and waste dump mixture. Bimrock is especially different from the general soil and rock material and the detection of the damage and fracture is still wide open to innovative research. Globally there is a widespread interest in investigating the geomechanical behaviors of bimrocks such as deformation and strength characteristics damage and fracture evolution and stability prediction of bimrock construction. However the meso-structural factors control the whole mechanical properties of bimrocks; the source of the macroscopic deformation phenomenon is the meso-structural changes. Therefore evaluation of the mesoscopic physical and mechanical properties together with advanced testing technique is an attractive research topic in rock mechanics. As a result comprehensive macroscopic and mesoscopic experimental investigations should be conducted to reveal the damage and fracturing mechanical behaviors of bimrocks. The readers of this work can gain new insights into the meso-structural changes of bimrocks subjected to different stress paths. This book is expected to improve the understanding of the mesoscopic damage and fracturing mechanisms of bimrocks and can be helpful to predict the stability of rock structures where rock mass is subjected to complex loading conditions.

Integer Programming Theory and Practice

Integer Programming Theory and Practice

Integer Programming: Theory and Practice contains refereed articles that explore both theoretical aspects of integer programming as well as major applications. This volume begins with a description of new constructive and iterative search methods for solving the Boolean optimization problem (BOOP). Following a review of recent developments on convergent Lagrangian techniques that use objective level-cut and domain-cut methods to solve separable nonlinear integer-programming problems the book discusses the generalized assignment problem (GAP). The final theoretical chapter analyzes the use of decomposition methods to obtain bounds on the optimal value of solutions to integer linear-programming problems. The first application article contains models and solution algorithms for the rescheduling of airlines following the temporary closure of airports. The next chapters deal with the determination of an optimal mix of chartered and self-owned vessels needed to transport a product. The book then presents an application of integer programming that involves the capture storage and transmission of large quantities of data collected during testing scenarios involving military applications related to vehicles medicine equipment missiles and aircraft. The next article develops an integer linear-programming model to determine the assortment of products that must be carried by stores within a retail chain to maximize profit and the final article contains an overview of noncommercial software tools for the solution of mixed-integer linear programs (MILP). The authors purposefully include applications and theory that are usually not found in contributed books in order to appeal to a wide variety of researchers and practitioners. | Integer Programming Theory and Practice

Thermal Computations for Electronics Conductive Radiative and Convective Air Cooling

Thermal Computations for Electronics Conductive Radiative and Convective Air Cooling

The first edition of Thermal Computations for Electronics: Conductive Radiative and Convective Air Cooling was based on the author's lecture notes that he developed over the course of nearly 40 years of thermal design and analysis activity the last 15 years of which included teaching a university course at the senior undergraduate and graduate levels. The subject material was developed from publications of respected researchers and includes topics and methods original to this author. Numerous students have contributed to both the first and second editions the latter corrected sections rewritten (e. g. radiation spatial effects Green's function properties for thermal spreading 1-D FEA theory and application) and some new material added. The flavor and organization of the first edition have been retained whereby the reader is guided through the analysis process for systems and then components. Important new material has been added regarding altitude effects on forced and buoyancy driven airflow and heat transfer. The first 20% of the book is devoted to the prediction of airflow and well-mixed air temperatures in systems circuit board channels and heat sinks followed by convective (PCB-mounted components included) radiative and conductive heat transfer and the resultant temperatures in electronic equipment. Detailed application examples illustrate a variety of problems. Downloads (from the CRC website) include: MathcadTM text examples exercise solutions (adopting professors only) plus PDF lecture aids (professors only) and a tutorial (Chapter 14) using free FEA software to solve a thermal spreading problem. This book is a valuable professional resource for self-study and is ideal for use in a course on electronics cooling. It is well-suited for a first course in heat transfer where applications are as important as theory. | Thermal Computations for Electronics Conductive Radiative and Convective Air Cooling
