Paul N. Worsey is a tenured professor and well known mining and explosives expert and researcher at the Missouri University of Science and Technology (formerly the University of Missouri-Rolla). Outside of teaching, research, and writing in his field, he is noted for creating and hosting the University's annual "Explosives Camp" for 16- and 17-year-old aspiring mining engineers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Welcome to Explosives Camp )〕 Since 2008, Worsey has been one of the host experts on the Discovery Channel documentary series, ''The Detonators''.〔 == Background == Worsey obtained a Bachelor of Science degree from the University of Bristol in 1977. The following year he completed his Masters of Science degree in Rock Mechanics Excavation Engineering. In 1981 he obtained his Ph.D. in the field of Mining (Explosives) Engineering. His dissertation was entitled: ''Geotechnical factors affecting the application of pre-split blasting to rock slopes''. In the past 10 years his research has focused on the demilitarization of explosive ordnance. He is the holder of several patents, including US Patent No. 4,754,705 for a blast control plug. "The device is designed to help keep explosive energy in blastholes when they detonate and thus more efficiently break rock and reduce environmental problems such as flyrock, airblast and ground vibrations." He is also a certified British Parachute Association Instructor having trained more than 1,000 students at the Sunderland Parachute Center. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Paul Worsey」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
