The personal, social, and health impacts of caregiving have been well documented in recent years (Ory, Hoffman, Yee, Tennstedt, & Schulz, 1999; Schulz & Beach, 1999; Schulz, 2000; Schulz, O’Brien, Bookwala, & Fleissner, 1995). These findings in turn have generated intervention studies aimed at addressing the burden, distress, and health-related morbidity associated with caregiving. The majority...

B Abstract. Optimal abort landing trajectories of an aircraft under diier-ent windshear-downburst situations are computed and discussed. In order to avoid an airplane crash due to severe winds inadvertently encountered by the aircraft during the landing approach, the minimum altitude obtained during the abort landing maneuver is to be maximized. This maneuver is mathematically described by a Ch...

Levodopa-induced dyskinesia (LID) is one of the most common and frequently dose-limiting complications of pharmacologic therapy for Parkinson disease (PD). These typically choreiform movements, usually occurring at the time of peak levodopa effect, occur in 40% to 50% of patients after 5 years of therapy but have a reported incidence as high as 94% in a carefully conducted prospective study of ...

The content of this paper is that of an invited plenary talk at the XVII SIGRAV Conference held in Torino, September 4-7, 2006. Some recent results obtained by the author and collaborators about QFT in asymptotically flat spacetimes at null infinity are reviewed. In particular it is shown that bosonic QFT can be defined on the null boundary I of any asymptotically flat spacetime M . This theory...
