This paper is an introductory guide to many-particle hydrodynamic interactions. Basic concepts of the fluid mechanics are assumed to be known. Experience in the Stokes equations is useful but not necessary. The study is estimated to fit five sessions about three hours each. Auguste Rodin: “Nothing else that I have done satisfies me as much, because nothing else cost me so much effort...”[**]

The accelerating trend toward Faster, Better, Cheaper (FEE) missions places increasing emphas is on the trade-offs between requirements and risk to reduce cost and development times, while still improving quality and reliability. The Risk/Requirenlents Trade-off Guidelines discussed in this paper are part of an integrated approach to address the main issues by focusing on the sum of prevention,...

A Holocene lake sediment record spanning the past 7300 years from Wishart Lake in the Turkey Lakes Watershed in the Hemi-Boreal of central Ontario, Canada, was used to evaluate the potential drivers of long-term change in diatom assemblages at this site. An analysis of diatom assemblages found that benthic and epiphytic taxa dominated the mid-Holocene (7300-4000 cal yr BP), indicating shallow, ...
