The research project Aviator 2030 at the German Aerospace Centre (DLR) focuses on finding an optimal fit between technical innovations and human operators in future aviation. Due to the increase in automation, accurate and efficient monitoring poses a great challenge to future operators in aviation. As the DLR`s Department of Aviation and Space Psychology is responsible for the selection of pil...

Deformation monitoring systems seek to detect constant movements with time, varying movements with time or a sudden movement. A slow movement at the millimetre level will not be detected by comparing consecutive session solutions due to inaccuracies between sessions. However, comparisons over several sessions, or days, or weeks, could highlight slow consistent changes. The Allan variance is int...

the present paper aims to highlight the origin of the youth movements in iran during the intervening years of 1971 and 2002. during these three decades, youth movement was one of the important social movements in the political arena of the country. while explaining the origin of the movement, two changes i.e. 'generation gap' and 'democracy' have been studied and it was found that the origin of...

Abstract This paper presents the application of a Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) strategy for bridges affected by slow deformation phenomena to curved roadway bridge undergoing landslide‐induced movements. The chosen multidisciplinary approach is based on combination remote sensing data through satellite Synthetic Aperture Radar Interferometry (InSAR) and structural analysis up collapse inv...

mirror movement is an interesting but often overlooked neurological soft sign;these movements are described as simultaneous contralateral, involuntary, identical movements that accompany voluntary movements. this neurologic problem is very rarely seen in children; in familial cases there is a positive history of these movements in parents, diminishing with time. here, we have presented the case...

Neuroleptics are widely prescribed drugs for the treatment of schizophrenia and related psychiatric disorders. Tardive dyskinesia (TD) is a late complication of prolonged neuroleptic treatment. Despite much research, the pathogenesis of TD remains elusive. It may be caused by loss of dopaminergic cells, due to free radicals as a product of high synaptic dopamine levels. Tardive dyskinesia has b...

RATIONALE A healthy foetus, if exposed to external sound stimulation, often responds with vigorous movements which can be felt by the mother. A hypoxic foetus usually does not show this response. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the fetal acoustic stimulation test (FAST) in antepartum fetal monitoring. DESIGN AND SETTING Prospective interventional study carried out at the Teaching Hospital, Galle. ...

politics is not the ghost in the machine of global health policy. conceptually, it makes little sense to argue otherwise, while history is replete with examples of individuals and movements engaging politically in global health policy. were one looking for ghosts, a more likely candidate would be democracy, which is currently under attack by a new global health technocracy. civil society moveme...
