white-collar criminals are those who abusing their official occupations commit profitable, nonviolent crimes. the most important manifestations of white collar crimes are: fraud, corruption (including bribery), employment offences, consumer offences, drug and food offences, environmental crimes, cyber crimes, and customs offences. some manifestations of white collar crime have direct victims so...

0. The aim of this paper is to announce several results concerning smoothing Hubert manifolds and some of their consequences for homeomorphisms. All manifolds are assumed to be Hausdorff, paracompact, and separable with local model the oo-dimensional separable Hubert space H. (All separable infinite dimensional Fréchet spaces are homeomorphic to H.) As usual, we denote by DTM the unit disc and ...

scour around bridge piers is one of the most important fields of hydraulic research. local scour around bridge piers and abutment is one of the main reasons of bridge failures. in the field of scour at the bridges, researches are more focus on scour of piers in compare with abutment. while the available information on the bridge failures required cost, the major problems are related to abutment...

local scour around the abutment is of utmost importance in bridge failures. numerous methods such as riprap have been proposed to reduce the destructive effects of scouring; one of the ways to harness and reduce the local scour depth is installed protective collars around the abutment. in this paper effect of collar elevation (upper level, bed level and lower level), collar geometry and its siz...

Since 1989, blue-collar foreign workers have been permitted to work in Taiwanese industries. Most blue-collar foreign workers apply for jobs in Taiwan through blue-collar foreign workers' agencies. Because blue-collar foreign workers are not familiar with the language and culture in Taiwan, in occupational accident education and hazard prevention, the agencies play an important role in the coor...

scoure is the removal of particle sediment which results variation of flow pattern. local scour is considered as one of the reasons of instability and ultimately failure of bridges.therefore, proposing some controlling methods to reduce this phenomenon is essential. in the study, effects of two types of squar and circular collar on a single cylindrical model have been investigated. in the next ...

conclusions according to the results of our study, neck collar fixation has no effect on ventilation in multiple trauma patients. results this study involved 163 multiple trauma patients. of these, 65% were male. the mean of end tidal carbon dioxide (etco2) of the patients without neck collars was 34.62 ± 4.46 and the mean etco2 of the patients with neck collars was 34.21 ± 2.31. there was no s...

Although white-collar work is of vast importance to the economy, the operations management (OM) literature has focused largely on traditional blue-collar work. In an effort to stimulate more OM research into the design, control, and management of white-collar work systems, this paper provides a systematic review of disparate streams of research relevant to understanding white-collar work from a...

OBJECTIVES Rates of surgically treated carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) among blue- and white-collar workers and housewives in the general population were compared. METHODS Surgically treated cases of idiopathic CTS were investigated among 25-59-year-old residents of Tuscany, Italy, during 1997-2000, based on obligatory discharge records from all Italian public/private hospitals, archived accordi...

During the first three decades of the People’s Republic of China, income differences across social classes were compressed. Formal education was not an important determinant of personal income. In this study, there was no difference in income between white-collar and blue-collar families, although white-collar parents had more education than blue-collar parents. In urban China, where population...
