Ephemeral Infrastructures of Drug Smuggling Mobilities

Agent-based Model of Maritime Drug Smuggling

Drug smuggling is a worldwide problem with many negative e ects on the society. It is important to understand and predict smuggler's behavior in order to best position patrolling assets and disrupt his supply chain. The goal of this thesis is formalize smuggler's behavior and compare it with real-world data. Smuggler's route planner makes the main component of this thesis, it's formalized as bi...

Abdominal X-ray signs of intra-intestinal drug smuggling.

INTRODUCTION "Body packers" either swallow or insert drug filled packets rectally or vaginally in order to smuggle illicit drugs. AXR is used routinely to screen suspects for the presence of intra-intestinal drug packages. AXR diagnosis can be difficult as stool or gas within the intestine may resemble ingested foreign bodies. We identify the frequency and co-existence of several signs; tic-tac...

The Mobilities of Electrons.

In a recent paper' it was shown that the electrons could presumably travel through N2 and H2 gases!in a free state at atmospheric pressure. It was found in some cases impossible to evaluate the mobilities of these electrons with the low frequencies of commutation available. The values of the mobilities indicated by these results appeared to be so much higher than the values obtained by earlier ...
