Abbott, Jack W.Baham, Gary J.Head of the Systems Engineering Section
Naval Ship Engineering Center. He received his Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering from Stanford University in 1960 and was then commissioned in the U.S. Navy serving as Engineering Officer in the USS Braine (DD-630). Upon completion of his active duty assignments he entered industry as a Development Engineer and became involved with marine application of gas turbine and fluid power systems. In 1966 he assumed full responsibility for the installation design and equipment acceptance tests of the gas turbine generator/waste-heat boiler system for the DDH-280 Class Destroyer including all associated controls ducting and silencing equipment. In 1970 he became Manager of the DD-963 Auxiliary Power “Trade-Off” Study which resulted in significant modification to the electric steam and compressed air systems. A registered Professional Mechanical Engineer in the State of California and the holder of several patents he is presently enrolled in the Masters Program at George Washington University in Engineering Administration. He is a member of ASNE and SNAME and currently holds the rank of Lieutenant Commander in the U.S. Naval Reserve. Head of the Mechanical Systems Department
Washington D. C. Office of George G. Sharp Inc. He received his BS degree in Engineering from the University of California at Los Angeles. His career started in the design and development of turbomachinery for commercial and marine applications with the Douglas Aircraft Co. He subsequently was employed by the Southern California Edison Co. and later the Turbo-Power and Marine Department of Pratt & Whitney Aircraft in development of power systems for marine and electrical generation applications. At Litton Ship Systems Inc. he participated in development of propulsion power train machinery for the DD-963 and LHA ship programs.

This volume contains a selection of the papers presented at the 11th International Workshop on Multi-Agent-Based Simulation (MABS 2010), a workshop co-located with the 9th International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems (AAMAS 2010), which was held on May 10-14, 2010 in Toronto, Canada. The 11 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 26 submissions. The workshop has been an important source of inspiration for the body of knowledge that has been produced in the field of Multi-Agent Systems (MAS). As illustrated by this volume, the workshop continues to bring together researchers interested in MAS engineering with researchers focused on finding efficient ways to model complex social systems in social, economic and organizational areas. In all these areas, agent theories, metaphors, models, analyses, experimental designs, empirical studies, and methodological principles all converge into simulation as a way of achieving explanations and predictions, exploring and testing hypotheses, and producing better designs and systems.

Developing transformative pathways for industry's compliance with international climate targets requires model-based insights into how supply- and demand-side measures affect industry, material cycles, global supply chains, socioeconomic activities, and service provisioning that support societal well-being. We review the recent literature modeling the industrial system in low energy and material demand futures, which mitigates environmental impacts without relying on risky future negative emissions and technological fixes. We identify 77 innovative studies drawing on nine distinct industry modeling traditions. We critically assess system definitions and scopes, biophysical and thermodynamic consistency, granularity and heterogeneity, and operationalization of demand and service provisioning. We find that combined supply- and demand-side measures could reduce current economy-wide material use by 56%, energy use by 40% to 60%, and greenhouse gas emissions by 70% to net zero. We call for strengthened interdisciplinary collaborations between industry modeling traditions and demand-side research to produce more insightful scenarios, and we discuss challenges and recommendations for this emerging field.

The geometric effects on the applied power dependence of the delay time preceding thermal breakdown in p-n junctions are predicted in terms of a linear heat-flow model and temperature-dependent reverse current. Measurements of the delay time on silicon planar p-n junctions of various areas are compared to the predictions and found to be in reasonable accord.
Eddy-current brakes as primary brakes in automobiles can potentially remedy the problems posed by conventional friction brakes. First, however, it will be necessary to analyze the effece of each design parameter on th...
