Integrated Sciences, Inc.

• United States
• Chemical Manufacturing

• President

  • Feb 1975 - Jan 1992

  Contract research and development for the energy related industries. Primary focus is in the areas of exploration geophysics, mining, geothermal power systems, solar thermal electric power generation, rock mechanics, nuclear logging methods, and seismic site stability analysis for nuclear power plants. Supported by US Bureau of Mines funding, developed, field tested and patented "Method for Predicting Failure in Earth Structures" to predict earthquakes, avalanches and failures in underground mines and earthen dams. Additional development projects included gamma ray ore grade monitoring and control systems, electromagnetic techniques to sense female hormone release for use in fertility monitors, neutron-activation down-hole logging tools. Also developed solar design specifications for a NSF funded 1 mega-Watt solar power generation system study.Developed the microseismic emission (ME) method for structural stability analysis of rocks and other earthen structures. Developed beta particle detectors for radon gas concentration meters. Participated as a technical reviewer for President Jimmy Carter's Commission on Nuclear Non-Proliferation Practices - Final Report. Technical book reviewer for the American Association for the Advancement of Science's new book releases.
