This disc approximately 4.5 inches in diameter has 6 pdf files including CRASH bios University of Michigan Presentation Site Visit schedule Questions and Responses and Participants. PSAAP stands for Predictive Science Academic Alliance Program. The Center for Radiative Shock Hydrodynamics CRASH is advancing predictive science in the area of radiation hydrodynamics RH. To substantially improve the ability to do predictive simulations of high - energy - density and astrophysical flows Center researchers are: Developing a software framework for RH to serve as a testbed for development verification and validation of RH modeling elements. Developing a system for hierarchically validating the software framework. Extending an existing experimental effort centered on radiative shocks to obtain data and quantify uncertainties in the experiments. Simulating these experiments and quantifying the accuracy of the simulations. Establishing a doctoral program. The CRASH team comprised of researchers from the University of Michigan and Texas A&M University are experts in: Numerical methods for fluids plasmas and radiation transport; Uncertainty quantification and propagation; High - energy - density physics experiments and theory; Applied mathematics; Software engineering and computer science; Parallelization of radiation transport algorithms. The potential impacts of the project include NNSA lab use of advanced methods in radiation hydrodynamic simulations and methods for uncertainty quantification developed in the Center and the hiring by the laboratories of people trained in predictive radiation hydrodynamics through the Center.

1931127 p. 12 mo. 195 mm. Original paper boards binding, with printed paper spine label. Hardbound. A crisp copy of a commentary on the behavior of the banks and Wall Street leading up to the Market Crash of 1929 and the following depression. Very scarce in this fine condition. COLD WAR 1
1929Lucky Strike cigarette ad on back cover provides a truly classic and timeless example of a mis-timed advertisement. Consider that the great Wall St. stock market crash of 1929 occurred mere days before this issue hit the newsstands. Beneath the caption "An Ancient Prejudice has been removed" appears a clenched fist labeled as "American Intelligence" breaking a heavy chain. Top left a paranoid miser stacks his gold by candlelight. Top right a wealthy couple visits their palatial bank. Text beneath miser reads "Hoarding gold with the fanatical zeal of the miser has vanished. American Intelligence sponsors thousands of banking institutions to which the individual (i.e. the wealthy couple) safely entrusts his wealth." The message is clear. Readers should put their trust (and money) in the banks, and shun gold. This issue was likely printed just as the Great Crash occurred, causing countless financial institutions to go under - and destroying even more individual fortunes. (The ad goes on to claim that cigarettes have similarly overcome the prejudice against them.) A truly stunning work which deserves to be preserved and reflected upon in this age of limitless fiat currency printing. Average wear with three-inch crease to lower corner of back cover. Suitably framed and mounted, this ad will make a superlative office display for any precious metals executive. Magazine
