Breast cancer risk among Finnish cabin attendants: a nested case-control study.
BACKGROUND Earlier studies have found increased breast cancer risk among female cabin crew. This has been suggested to reflect lifestyle factors (for example, age at first birth), other confounding factors (for example, age at menarche), or occupational factors such as exposure to cosmic radiation and circadian rhythm alterations due to repeated jet lag. AIMS To assess the contribution of occ...
متن کاملAircraft Cabin Propagation for Multimedia Communications
In this paper an innovative service concept based on wireless technologies for aircraft cabins is presented. The peculiarities of radio propagation and interference for UMTS, IEEE 802.11b for WLAN and Bluetooth inside a cabin are discussed. Part of this work is supported by the EU in the framework of the IST WirelessCabin Project (IST-2001-37466).
متن کاملFrom Preliminary Aircraft Cabin Design to Cabin Optimization - Part I -
This paper conducts an investigation towards main aircraft cabin parameters. The aim is two-fold: First, a handbook method is used to preliminary design the aircraft cabin. Second, an objective function representing the “drag in the responsibility of the cabin” is created and optimized using both an analytical approach and a stochastic approach. Several methods for estimating wetted area and ma...
متن کاملActive Control of Aircraft Cabin Noise
The noise levels in the passenger cabin of turbopropeller-driven aircraft are typically higher than the noise levels in comparable turbofan-powered aircraft. The sources of noise in a turboprop aircraft include boundary layer flow noise, structure-borne noise due to engine vibration, and acoustic excitation of the fuselage due to the propeller, with the latter being dominant for most turboprop ...
متن کاملThe wellness of airline cabin attendants: A systems theory perspective
This article reports on the wellness of selected cabin crew members at a South African airline. The aviation industry introduces a great amount of potential environmental stressors to cabin crew. The purpose of the research was to explore the wellbeing of cabin crew and the stressors related to their working environment. As primary safety officers on board an aircraft, cabin crew perform a vita...
