The present paper introduces the sloshing effects on aeroelastic stability and response of flying wing configurations. Using reduced order model based data provided by computational fluid dynamics data, description slosh is introduced into an integrated modelling that accounts for both rigid elastic behaviour flexible aircraft. fully unsteady aerodynamics, modelled in frequency domain via doubl...

In the paper we analyze the data collected in ten schools in Israel which have incorporated ICT in unique ways and have succeeded in devising innovative classroom pedagogies and changes in teachers and students roles and outcomes. The major research questions addressed are: (a) What levels of innovation were observed in the participant schools, and in which domains? (b) How does the level of in...

Uncertainty is an inherent factor throughout the whole supply chain (SC) channel within production, distribution, transportation, and market sales. In traditional manufacturing processes, stochastic capacity, random yield, and uncertain transportation delay are regarded as the main causes of supply uncertainty. Market fluctuations, brought on by ever-changing customer preferences and competitiv...

During the past years, our research group has been working in the design and implementation of Logic Programming Systems. In previous work, we have produced systems to support sequential, parallel and distributed execution of Prolog; to support novel techniques and models, such as tabling, through the YapTab system [1], or the Extended Andorra Model (EAM), through the BEAM [2]; and to support t...

A study described in this issue explored the feasibility of implementing two specific clinical practice guidelines. Using a low-cost intervention, Resnick et al. improved medical record documentation of care recommended in pain and falls practice guidelines. The intervention involved providing written materials to volunteer nursing home (NH) staff. One might hypothesize that an approach that su...

REVIEWS Volume 15, Number 1 62 how learning works is becoming more and more important because of how this understanding can help them achieve greater concept resonance. The New Science of Learning is a great place for that conversation to begin. As a biology professor surrounded by colleagues who believe in lecture as the most effective teaching method, I continue to search for literature that ...

One of the key applications of operational research in health systems management is to improve the mechanism of resource allocation and program planning in order to increase the system efficiency. This study seeks to offer an innovative method for the planning and scheduling of health service units with the aim of reducing the patients' Length of Stay (LOS) in the Cardiac Surgery Ward of Razavi...
