Sommario/riassunto

Kargin examines police officers' decision making with regard to peer reporting of unethical police behavior. On a theoretical level, a peer reporting model was developed based on Rest's (1984) "four component," Trevino's (1986) "a person-situation interactionist," and, finally, Jones' (1991) "issue-contingent" models of ethical decision making for investigation of police officers' peer reporting decisions. The results suggest that the perceived seriousness of the unethical behavior is the strongest predictor of police officers' peer reporting in minor and moderate policy violations. However, o

Sommario/riassunto

Spray forming combines the metallurgical processes of metal casting and powder metallurgy to fabricate metal products with enhanced



properties. This book provides an introduction to the various modelling and simulation techniques employed in spray forming, and shows how they are applied in process analysis and development. The author begins by deriving and describing the main models. He then presents their application in the simulation of the key features of spray forming. Wherever possible he discusses theoretical results with reference to experimental data. Building on the features of metal spray forming, he also derives common characteristic modelling features that may be useful in the simulation of related spray processes. The book is aimed at researchers and engineers working in process technology, chemical engineering and materials science.
