This paper reviews research conducted in the Texas A&M University Flight Simulation Laboratory on intelligent systems for general aviation. Over the last eight years several intelligent cockpit systems and pilot decision-aiding tools have been created and developed for general aviation aircraft, using fix-based flight simulation validation and evaluation. This paper reviews these results, and a...

The aim of this research was to investigate the retention of a bracket equipped with a novel base, the R-system. The design of the bracket base is characterized by concentric grooves. The behaviour of this bracket was compared with a bracket with a conventional mesh base from the same manufacturer. Thirty lower adult bovine incisors were selected and metallic brackets were bonded using the Conc...

Observers completed perceptual categorization tasks that included separate base-rate/payoff manipulations, corresponding simultaneous base-rate/payoff manipulations, and conflicting simultaneous base-rate/payoff manipulations. Performance was (a) closer to optimal for 2:1 than 3:1 base-rate/payoff ratios, and when base-rates, as opposed to payoffs were manipulated, and (b) was more in line with...

Now, we come to offer you the right catalogues of book to open. methodology and tools for data base design is one of the literary work in this world in suitable to be reading material. That's not only this book gives reference, but also it will show you the amazing benefits of reading a book. Developing your countless minds is needed; moreover you are kind of people with great curiosity. So, th...

This paper explores design considerations for energy efficiency in lunar habitats. It considers several previous lunar energy studies in regards to energy types and stages of energy requirements. If we are to obtain true sustainability in energy processes, we will need to design according to the principles “exergy”, considering both the first and the second laws of thermodynamics in a holistic ...
