The current study aimed at investigating the concepts of team situation awareness, mental models, and team processes in relation to performance in the complex, dynamic environment of breathing apparatus rescues. Data was collected during exercises at Ågesta training center through questionnaires and after action reviews. 28 firemen and 5 instructors participated in the exercises. Also, a stimulated recall interview was conducted with 2 of the firemen that had participated in one of the exercises. The different data collection methods all indicated that well-developed mental models or a high degree of pre-task knowledge affected performance in a positive way. Moreover, a multiple regression analysis showed that both pre-task knowledge and team processes significantly can predict performance. The results of the analysis of team situation awareness in relation to performance were fairly ambiguous. Therefore, further research is needed to establish the relation between these concepts in the domain at matter.

Since September, 2001, the New York City (NYC) emergency services have striven to more closely align their component disciplines into one coordinated and collaborative effort. Despite improvements in emergency management, the New York City Fire Department (FDNY) and New York City Police Department (NYPD) are still separate operational entities. An evolution in the terrorist threat challenges NYC emergency agencies and finds them unprepared for a complex terror event. Terrorist seek to divide first-responder efforts at such an attack. Evidence from the Mumbai attacks indicates an optimal response to a similar incident requires an unprecedented level of firstresponder synergy. This thesis asserts that the synergistic elements in the New York City Urban Search and Rescue Task Force (NY-TF1) are applicable to the interagency challenges in the FDNY-NYPD response relationship. The methodology of this thesis is a single case study of NY-TF1 involving set of seven key leader interviews. Each discipline provided three levels of leadership confirmed the assertions of this thesis. The seventh interview, the senior civilian administrator for the New York City Urban Search and Rescue Task Force (NY-TF1), also supported this study's findings. The conclusions of this study are drawn from commonalities in the data collected. The FDNY and NYPD can achieve an emergency services synergy adapting NY-TF1 organizational designs and systemic processes into the greater response relationship.

Minor utgör ett hot mot civilbefolkningen men även personal i fredsfrämjande insatser riskerar att skadas av minorna under patruller i insatsområdet. Idag används minhunden i Försvarsmakten för att lokaliera minor i kombination med minpik och metalldetektor. Hunden har sina begränsningar och har under flera perioder varit på väg att fasas ut till förmån för tekniken. Minans doftbild, minhunden och den elektroniska nosen beskrivs och mynnar ut i en analys där för-/nackdelar presenteras och därefter diskuteras. Den militära nyttan i den militära kontexten, insats med undsättningsstyrka (MRT) utgör ramverk i uppsatsen. Vid en undsättningsinsats med MRT är det av största vikt att minorna kan lokaliseras, märkas ut och undvikas. Hunden har förmåga till lokalisering av minor vilket den elektroniska nosen Fido saknar. Minornas doftbild överlappar varandra. Fido kan inte särskilja minorna från varandra utan endast bekräfta förekomst i ett område vilket inte bidrar till den militära nyttan när en fri väg ska sökas fram till en skadeplats.Landmines pose a threat to the civilian population but personnel in peacekeeping operations could also be harmed by landmines during patrols in the area. Today the Swedish Armed Forces use mine detection dogs to locate landmines. The mine detection dogs are used in combination with prodders and metal detectors. The dogs have their limitations and there have been several attempts to phase them out and replace them with technology. Substances detected by dogs and electronic noses, the mine detection dog and the electronic dog nose Fido are described and incorporated in an analysis where advantages/disadvantages are presented and then discussed. Military utility in a military context constitute the frame of the essay. The military context is an operation with a mine rescue team to rescue an injured person in a mine field. In a rescue operation with a mine rescue team the most important thing is to locate, mark and avoid the landmines. The dog can locate landmines but the electronic nose Fido cannot. The chemical signatures from the landmines overlap each other making it difficult for Fido to pinpoint the exact location. Fido can confirm the presence of landmines in an area which does not have military utility during mine rescue team operations to find a free path and rescue an injured person out from a minefield.

I dagens konfliktområden är förekomsten av minor och oexploderad ammunition(OXA) ett vanligt förekommande problem för civilbefolkning samt de militära enheter som arbetar i området för att skapa stabilitet och säkerhet. Den här uppsatsen avhandlar möjligheten att lösa eventuella problem som har att göra med förekomsten av minor och OXA i ett missionsområde utan tillgång till stödresurser i form av min- och ammunitionsröjningsteam. Uppsatsens syfte är att undersöka om det är möjligt att tillföra minröjningskompetens på gruppnivå utan att tappa ursprunglig kompetens och fokus från huvudtjänsten. Uppsatsen tar även upp vilken lägsta nivå av utbildning som krävs för att kunna röja mineringar och OXA, samt hur man når upp till det målet. Uppsatsens frågeställning har varit: Går det att inom ramen för Jägarbataljon 09 utbilda en soldat som besitter kompetensen att kunna identifiera och röja mineringar samt OXA? Om ja, vilken utrustning bör tillföras? Mina slutsatser är att det är praktiskt möjligt genom att tillföra en min- och amröjledare på bataljons nivå. Min- och amröjledaren kan i sin tur utbilda och ge soldaterna den reella kompetens som behövs på enbart fyra veckor, ca 130h stimmar. Utbildningen som krävs är grundkursen Minröjning Manuella Metoder(MMM). För att fullt ut kunna nyttja förmågan krävs det att gruppen tillförs viss ammunitionsröjningsutrustning, bland annat extra tänd- och sprängmedel. Effekten man vinner på tillförsel av minröjningskompetensen är kopplat mot förbandets förmåga till okonventionellt uppträdande samt möjligheterna att ta ytterligare steg innanför motståndarens beslutscykel.
In today’s conflict areas the remnants of war, mines and unexploded ordnance (UXO) is a common problem for the civilian population. These remnants also pose a great threat for the military units who work in the area to create peace, stability and security for the people. The purpose of this essay is to discover if and how it is possible to solve eventual problems associated with remnants of war in conflict areas, without the support of Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) teams. My research has explored if it is possible to implement mine clearance and ammunition disposal on a squad without loosing additional competence and focus from the squad’s main field of service. Additional research has been carried out to ascertain the lowest level of competence necessary to work within the field of mine clearance and ammunition disposal, and what education is needed. My thesis aims to answer, if it is possible within the frame of the Army Ranger Battalion 09, to educate a soldier on a squad to have the ability and competence to do work within the field of mine clearance and ammunition disposal? If yes, what additional equipment should be added to the squad, to be able to perform that task? My conclusion is that it is possible to achieve by adding a mine clearance and ammunition disposal leader to the Battalion staff who can educate, train and give the soldiers the proper education in four weeks (approximately 130h). The education required to achieve this goal is the course, Mine clearance Manuel Methods (MMM). To use this ability it is necessary to equip the group with some additional and specific disposal-equipment (i.e. extra explosives.) The main effort gained from implementing this ability on a ranger squad is the Ranger Battalion’s overall ability to operate and appear in unexpected areas, and to get inside the enemy’s OODA-LOOP.

Devising new ways to collaborate with faculty can be a challenge. In offering professors the opportunity to replace a written paper with a LibGuide assignment, the librarians hoped that the close working relationship necessary to ensure the success of this pilot would allow us to become actively engaged in the classroom. From the perspectives of faculty, a LibGuides assignment can represent an interesting alternative to a research paper that offers flexibility in design and content. For students, a LibGuide assignment can not only be fun but also challenging, since they will have to assess everything they put in the guide.

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimitedThe United States governments role in preparing for, preventing, responding to, and recovering from all domestic disasters is coordinated by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Further, FEMA is designated as the primary agency responsible for coordinating Structural Collapse (Urban) Search and Rescue (US and R) situations in the National Response Framework. Since the inception of FEMA resources intended for response to US and R missions, the national search and rescue system has evolved, along with the numbers and types of other resources available to assist in US and R missions. Nonetheless, a disconnect remains, with no common national US and R strategy that effectively brings together available federal resources from FEMA, the Department of Defense, and other partner agencies. FEMA states that urban search and rescue is considered a multi-hazard discipline, as the teams can hypothetically be utilized for response to a wide variety of natural and man-made emergencies or disasters. Although the present FEMA US and R task force model has worked well for certain types of disasters, this thesis explores responses to past events and considers a new strategy that could allow the US and R teams to be used more effectively and efficiently in an evolving Homeland Security enterprise.

Advances in mobile robot technology allow an increasing variety of applications to be imagined, including: search and rescue, exploration of unknown areas and working with hazardous materials. State of the art robots are able to behave autonomously and without direct human control, using on-board devices to perceive, navigate and reason about the world. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are particularly well suited to performing advanced sensing tasks by moving rapidly through the environment irrespective of the terrain. Deploying groups of mobile robots offers advantages, such as robustness to individual failures and a reduction in task completion time. However, to operate efficiently these teams require specific approaches to enable the individual agents to cooperate. This thesis proposes coordinated approaches to search scenarios for teams of UAVs. The primary application considered is Wilderness Search and Rescue (WiSaR), although the techniques developed are applicable elsewhere. A novel frontier-based search approach is developed for rotor-craft UAVs, taking advantage of available terrain information to minimise altitude changes during flight. This is accompanied by a lightweight coordination mechanism to enable cooperative behaviour with minimal additional overhead. The concept of a team rendezvous is introduced, at which all team members attend to exchange data. This also provides an ideal opportunity to create a comprehensive team solution to relay newly gathered data to a base station. Furthermore, the delay between sensing and the acquired data becoming available to mission commanders is analysed and a technique proposed for adapting the team to meet a latency requirement. These approaches are evaluated and characterised experimentally through simulation. Coordinated frontier search is shown to outperform greedy walk methods, reducing redundant sensing coverage using only a minimal coordination protocol. Combining the search, rendezvous and relay techniques provides a holistic approach to the deployment of UAV teams, meeting mission objectives without extensive pre-configuration.

A two year study was initiated in 2001 on a 2.4 ha site of mostly St. Amable loamy sand and shallow loamy sand at the Macdonald Campus Research Farm. This study sought to assess the effects of long term tillage and residue practices on soil physical properties and to relate these properties to their influence on total carbon, total nitrogen and soil microbial biomass-carbon. The site was set up as a factorial experiment with three tillage practices (no till---NT; reduced till---RT; and conventional till---CT) and two residue practices (with residue (grain corn), +R; without residue (silage corn), -R). Soil physical properties measured were bulk density, macroporosity at -6 kPa, saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat ), dry aggregate distribution, soil moisture and soil temperature. Wheel versus non-wheel track bulk density was also determined in the NT plots. Total porosity, soil water characteristic curves and pore volume distribution were derived from field samples. Crop yield was also assessed. Tillage alone had an effect on total porosity, bulk density, pore diameter and macroporosity. No individual physical property was significantly affected by the residue treatments; however, the tillage and residue interaction was significant for Ksat, soil moisture and soil temperature. Dry aggregate distribution was not affected by either tillage, residue or the combination of the two. Tillage affected total carbon and total nitrogen in the 0--0.10 m depth. Soil microbial biomass-carbon was affected by residue inputs. Total carbon and nitrogen were influenced by the bulk density, but none of the other soil physical properties. Soil microbial biomass-carbon was not influenced by any of the physical properties. Tillage and residue practices had no significant effect on crop yield for either year.

Hispanics are the fastest growing ethnic group in the United States with the states that border Mexico having a greater percentage of persons of Mexican origin residing in them. Herbs are widely used by persons of Mexican origin, however, little is known about specifics surrounding these cultural practices. An ethnographic study in the border region of Nogales, Arizona - Nogales, Sonora, Mexico, discovered the cultural components of values, beliefs, practices, and experiences of 9 women of Mexican origin who resided in the Arizona/Sonora, Mexico border region related to using manzanilla tea during the childbearing period. Data from semi-structured in-depth interviews were analyzed using a thematic, content analysis process. Intergenerational transmission of cultural health care knowledge emerged from abstraction of the findings. Details from the women's voices provide enlightenment surrounding the values, beliefs, and practices related to the use of manzanilla tea for childbearing. Nursing should be able to integrate this knowledge into care practices and education thereby promoting more culturally relevant care during the childbearing period for women of Mexican origin.

The purpose of this qualitative case study was to examine the experiences and perceptions of African American women who reside in a nursing home and to understand African American women's decisions for admitting to the facility. Social Learning Theory was applied to answer the question of how African American women's experiences and perceptions toward long-term care influence healthcare decisions and admission to a nursing home. Eleven participants interviewed in the study were at least 60 years old, admitted into the facility within the past two years and who had not previously resided in a nursing home. Yin's five step approach to data analysis, NVivo and Microsoft Office to gather data from African American women who live in a nursing home. Participants in this study described their perceptions of nursing homes as places they never thought they would reside in and expressed that African American families traditionally "took care of their own." As a result, participants stated nursing homes were not an option normally considered within their families. Decisions to admit to a nursing home were based on family work schedules which resulted in lack of supervision at home, increased nursing care, and financial reasons. Cultural competence was an important factor in helping them adjust to a nursing home environment despite cultural norms. This research can contribute to social change by providing awareness and identifying health behaviors and cultural beliefs regarding the use of long-term care facilities by African American women despite cultural norms. The findings of this study can also create positive social change movement in nursing homes to deliver resident-centered care and empowering staff.

Critical Incident Stress has the potential to affect emergency services personnel to the degree that it can change the way the responder acts and reacts in all facets of his or her life, including the job and his or her family. Research into these potential effects has produced a greater understanding of the responders experiences within a short period of time after the perceived critical incident. This study investigates the long-term effects of critical incident stress among emergency responders from two cities in the three emergency services professions were interviewed to determine what their experiences were at least six months post critical incident. A structured incident had in three areas of teh emergency responders lives: impact on job, impact on the individual responder, and perceived impact on emergency responders families. For particpants, symptoms of Critical Incident Stress lasted between 6 months and 2 years after the perceived critical incident. Analysis of the data indicatees that single responder critical incidents have the potential to negatively affect emergency responders resulting in the loss of enthusiasm and passion for their work, debilitating psychological distress, and isolation from valued support systems. Long-term effects of Critical Incident Stress change the perceptions that responders have about the job, about themselves, and the relationships with their families. The culture of emergency services, changing identities, and the lack of support from both within the system and outside of the system were seen as variables that contribute to the long-term effects of Critical Incident Stress.xi, 181 leaves ; 29 cm.

The desire of the minerals industry to be more sustainable has led towards the increasing development of by-products. One such industry is the production of Alumina. The Alumina industry in Australia is the major producer of alumina in the western world with over 25 million tonnes of Bauxite Residue per annum. Alcoa World Alumina (Alcoa) has three refineries in Western Australia producing approximately 20,000 tonnes of Mud and a similar level of Red Sand each day. These as yet unutilised potential resources are being stockpiled, occupying a significant footprint. It is widely recognised within industry that there would be economic, environment and social benefits if a sustainable use for these materials were found. One such potential by-product is the production of coarse bauxite residue (Red Sand), neutralised and washed low in salt. The main purpose of this research was to establish a potential market for this material, through scientific evaluation of Red Sand as a replacement of natural fine aggregate (Natural Yellow Sand) in concrete mixes. For this research, the mixed stream of Bauxite Residue (fine and coarse) obtained in the Bayer process was neutralized by a process of carbonation then washed using cyclones and counter current wash towers to a value added byproduct. The coarse particles (Washed and Carbonated Sand-WCS) of the stream were separated by Wet High Intensity Magnetic Separation technique (WHIMS) so that different segments such as High Iron Sand (HIS) and Low Iron Sand (LIS) were formed. Physical, chemical and mineralogical properties of these materials have been tested and compared with that of natural sand. Several mixes of concrete were then designed using Red Sand as a fine aggregate in order to verify their effects on strength and durability indicators of concrete.The comparative analysis between normal mix proportions and the mix proportions utilizing Red Sand was also achieved. In addition, the impact of marine environment on concrete mix design and properties of manufactured concrete were evaluated with a series of standard laboratory tests. The findings were promising in terms of both mechanical properties and durability and suggested that Red Sand, in particular Low Iron Sand is likely to be effective in place of fine aggregates and can be used within marine grade concrete with no major differences when compared to normal concrete. From the results obtained, it can be deduced that this material can be used in a wide range of concrete applications in Civil Engineering and Construction.

The present research investigation was designed to evaluate the performance, stress level, core skills training and competency of Emergency and Public Safety response team members including those who work in the Search and Rescue team in Abu Dhabi Police (ADP) GHQ. However, this research project has also taken the psychological approach and used the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-30, Goldberg, 1967, 1972, 1978, Goldberg & Hillier, 1979) to assess stress level among staff and leaders working in emergency response and public safety administrations teams at ADP GHQ. Overall this study is an attempt to investigate the main factors which contribute to the vulnerability of staff and the inadequate performance while responding to routine emergency work. The present investigation employed a mixed (qualitative and quantitative) descriptive research design, and involved a sample of (539) staff participants who were of different ages, gender and levels of experience. All participants were working at the time in the Emergency and Public Safety Administration and some were members of the International Search and Rescue team ADP GHQ. The main literature relevant to this investigation is covered in two main chapters (I.e. chapters 1 and 2) of this research project. Main results of this study indicated that more than half of the surveyed sample (62.5%) were in the age group of 18- 28 years, followed by 31.5% in the age group 29-39 years. Female participant staff working in Emergency and Public Safety were represented by 4.3% of the participants included in this study. Hence the majority of staff were male. That is 95.7% of participants were males holding appropriate relevant Higher Education qualifications. The majority (80.5%) of the sample were involved in daily fieldwork such as ambulance emergency work or participation in the rapid intervention and civil defence as well as international rescue mission activities including participation in manmade and natural disasters. Further, more than half of participants in the sample were satisfied with the training and efficiency of the equipment they use for their daily duties. More than half of the sample (62.3%) view their preparations as appropriate and good. Moreover, 14.8% (n = 80) declared that their preparedness for the service is excellent. Results of local and international participation indicated that 73.8% of previous participation of the sample members was local; mainwhile (26%) of the sample had involvement in international missions. 2

The objective of this research was to determine how genetics and nutrient availability influence C cycling in intensively managed southern pine forests. This work consisted of a two year field and a complimentary one year greenhouse study each split into above- and below-ground pools and fluxes. Both the greenhouse and field experiment showed differences between contrasting genotypes in gas exchange parameters and C partitioning patterns, but genetic by nutrient availability interactions were only observed in the field. In the field study, some genotypes were better able to tolerate nutrient limitations due to more favorable canopy architecture and lower N demand. Our results clearly show that contrasting ideotypes have the potential to respond differently to differences in nutrient availability in terms of biomass partitioning, leaf physiology, and leaf biochemistry (Chapter 3).
Both experiments showed short-term improvements to soil physical and chemical properties, which have been shown to correlate with higher site quality. In both the greenhouse and field experiment, we concluded that increased C loss by way of total soil CO₂ efflux (FS) made up only a small percent total C incorporated as LR. Short-term results led us to conclude that combining LR treatments and planting of genotypes with low nutrient demand or high nutrient use efficiency may increase soil organic matter (SOM) while avoiding loss of stem volume from nutrient immobilization. Data from our field study showed a strong genotype by soil amendment interaction for FS over all sampling dates with the relative importance of contributing factors (heterotrophic or root respiration) also changing (Chapter 5).
Overall, logging residue incorporation increased total system C gain per ha more than did fertilization alone, but there were differences between genotypes planted (Chapter 6). Data from the field experiment show that although LR incorporation did not decrease overall net primary productivity, it did decrease biomass partitioning to merchantable products (main stem) depending on genotype. These data underline the importance of matching appropriate genotypes to specific site conditions and silvicultural prescriptions.Ph. D.

The dissertation is focused on a multimedia lab for different applications, projects, text, video, audio, etc. Focused on the use of different user categories, as can be seen from reading the thesis. Design structures that can be effective, the program codes, program languages, and tools used to design and schedule used are proposed. You can output video synchronized time according to local time. We have investigated all kinds of references to avoid mistakes and has been possible objectives. Unfortunately the server we used to create this program is dead, your motherboard is not working and we have to wait to start again on another PC.
A research study has given us some results on the state of local television in Catalonia implying that 70% were no longer active in 2014 or 2015 as they are in daily local station TV show, but what they do is posting videos of events on the internet as a video on demand and this is not a regular daily issue, forcing to use the computer or Smartphone to see that video, and this is not our goal.
Our primary goal is for local TV studios can issue a daily schedule like any regular TV channel using the internet fiber optic network with 300Mbs. No need for an internet service provider or rely on an external server with videos in its database. Our solution gives the possibility that local broadcasters are self-reliant.
We have given a complete solution that works and that is a low economic cost to local television, giving a procedure for sending programs in video format quality and high definition, and also how a Smart TV in our home can receive the daily program through a system of appropriate devices and connections making a request for the IP address used by the local TV studio to send the entire program.
Knowing that this is operationally and economically and considering that Francisco Javier Villasevil is president of the federation of local television in Catalonia, when it comes to light and get together with municipalities that closed their local televisions, this may be the resumption of I wanted something that was lost, and allow student journalists, image and sound to work as interns to have a prosperous future careers.La tesis doctoral está enfocada en un laboratorio multimedia para diversos usos, proyectos, textos, vídeos, audio, etc., enfocada para el uso de diferentes categorías de usuario, tal y como se puede ver en la lectura de la tesis. Se proponen las estructuras de diseño que pueden ser efectivas, los códigos de programa, los lenguajes de programa utilizados y las herramientas de diseño y programación utilizadas. Se pueden emitir videos sincronizados por tiempo en función de la hora local. Se han investigado toda clase de referencias para no cometer errores y ha sido posible realizar los objetivos. Por desgracia el servidor que hemos utilizado para crear este programa ha muerto, su placa base no funciona y tenemos que esperar comenzar de nuevo en otro PC. Un estudio de investigación nos ha dado unos resultados sobre la situación de las televisiones locales de Cataluña dando a entender que un 70% ya no estaban activas en 2014 ni lo están en 2015 como emisora de programa diario local de televisión, sino que lo que hacen es publicar vídeos de eventos en internet como un vídeo en demanda y esto no es una emisión regular diaria, lo que obliga a usar el ordenador o el Smartphone para ver ese vídeo, y esto no es nuestro objetivo. Nuestro objetivo primordial es que los estudios de televisión locales puedan emitir una programación diaria como cualquier canal regular de televisión usando la red internet con fibra óptica de 300Mbs. Sin necesidad de utilizar un proveedor de servicio por internet ni depender de un servidor externo con vídeos en su base de datos. Nuestra solución da la posibilidad de que las televisiones locales sean autodependientes. Hemos dado una completa solución que funciona y que supone un bajo coste económico para la Televisión local, dando un procedimiento para enviar programas en formatos de vídeo de calidad y alta definición, y también cómo un Smart TV de nuestro hogar puede recibir el programa diario a través de un sistema de dispositivos y conexiones adecuadas haciendo una petición de la dirección IP que usa el estudio de televisión local para enviar todo el programa.

A two year study was initiated in 1999 at the Macdonald Campus Farm, on a 2.4 ha site consisting mainly of St-Amable sand to shallow loamy sand (Typic Endoaquent; Humic Gleysol). The site was planted to alfalfa ( Medicago sativa) prior to the establishment of the experimental design and has been planted to corn (Zea mays L.) since 1991. The experiment was set up as a randomized complete block design and consisted of three tillage levels (NT, no-till; RT, reduced tillage; and CT, conventional tillage) and two residue levels (-R, no residues; +R, with residues). This study was performed in order to ascertain the effect of these management systems on soil organic carbon (SOC), particulate organic matter carbon (POM-C), microbial biomass carbon (MBC) levels and soil physical properties. Soil physical properties measured included bulk density, saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat), dry and wet aggregate stability, total porosity, macroporosity at -1 kPa and -6 kPa of matric potential, and moisture content. Crop yield was also measured. Results indicated that lower rates of mineralization of POM-C under NT+R in the surface 0--10 cm led to significantly higher SOC at the same depth. There were no significant differences between treatments at the 10--20 cm depth. The MBC was not a good indicator of the differences in soil organic matter levels between treatments. No-till treatments had higher bulk densities, reduced total porosity and macroporosity, increased moisture content, and increased constant-head measured Ksat. Differences in Ksat as measured with the Guelph permeameter, were not significant between treatments, most likely due to increased earthworm activity in NT. There were no significant differences in crop yield in 1999, but a significantly wetter year in 2000 caused lower grain yields in NT+R compared to NT-R and CT+R.

We analyzed long-term temperature trends in Utah using a relatively new signal processing method called Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD). We evaluated the available weather records in Utah and selected 52 stations, which had records longer than 60 years, for analysis. We analyzed daily temperature data, both minimum and maximums, using the EMD method that decomposes non-stationary data (data with a trend) into periodic components and the underlying trend. Most decomposition algorithms require stationary data (no trend) with constant periods and temperature data do not meet these constraints. In addition to identifying the long-term trend, we also identified other periodic processes in the data. While the immediate goal of this research is to characterize long-term temperature trends and identify periodic processes and anomalies, these techniques can be applied to any time series data to characterize trends and identify anomalies. For example, this approach could be used to evaluate flow data in a river to separate the effects of dams or other regulatory structures from natural flow or to look at other water quality data over time to characterize the underlying trends and identify anomalies, and also identify periodic fluctuations in the data. If these periodic fluctuations can be associated with physical processes, the causes or drivers might be discovered helping to better understand the system. We used EMD to separate and analyze long-term temperature trends. This provides awareness and support to better evaluate the extremities of climate change. Using these methods we will be able to define many new aspects of nonlinear and nonstationary data. This research was successful and identified several areas in which it could be extended including data reconstruction for time periods missing data. This analysis tool can be applied to various other time series records.

In recent years, people’ adoration to sports for health provokes the demand to outdoor recreation fields fervently; plenty of clubs cope with the matter, and mountain-climbing club is one of the most popular modes. People only consider mountain-climbing as a healthy activity but with ignorance to the unpredictable hazards; once if with disaster, the relevant rescue can waste bunch of social costs and resources. This phenomenon should be concerned; reducing to minimum injury and away from accidents is crucial to each mountain-climber. Repeated accidents in Taiwan each year manifest the close tie between the ability of firemen’s rescue skills and the accidental mountain-climbers. Considering of the insufficient firefighters, the reliance of domestic private units for their abundant rescue skills and experiences is still required for enhancing the rescue probability. Discussing the refinement of mountain-climbing rescue, this study adopts literature reviews, experts’ interview, questionnaire design, and case study. The questionnaire can be divided into four major categories, “Skills Upgrading”, “Gears Renewal”, “Intensive Training”, and “Learning and Advancement”, as measurement index for experts’ interview and questionnaire vector analysis. Magnifying the performance, Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS) software and Chi-square test are applied; the results conduct to feasible proposals for further improvement. The results show, to the “Skills Upgrading” item, 91.6% of interviewees approve the advanced search by the experienced mountain disaster rescue crews to be the most crucial one for advanced planning and dispatching; 88.3%, the familiarity to search and track skills, such as footprint decoding, map reading, mobility in the night, and path identification, is also crucial, and each detachment can utilize monthly training for the skills. To the “Gears Renewal”, 95.8% demand to carry Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite positioned and cell-phone APP for location, and telecommunication units as satellite phones and radios; 94.2%, the proper rescue gears like warm, anti-water, and ventilated apparels, raining gears, climbing boots, and rope. The survey confirms the necessity of these gears to rescue crews. To the “Intensive Training”, 84.2% confirm the necessity of rescue training to mountain accidents in administrative area while with confirmation less than 70% for the rest, from attending civil groups, foreign rescue units, to mountain accident rescue training course by New Taipei Fire Bureau; which identifies the cognition in administrative area is more crucial. To the “Learning and Advancement”, 90% accepts the establishment of numbers; 86.7%, compilation of daily GPS tracks, which manifests the linkage between precise position and effective rescue; 76.6%, aftermath review council to mountain accident for refining and enhancing rescue skills. The data indicate the prevention is much important than aftermath review. Key Words: Mountain Accident, Rescue Skill, Experts’ Interview, Global Positioning System

It is one of important policies for the competent authority to counsel students’ health and allow them to growth contentedly, and an unavoidable responsibility for people who engaged in the education field. In other words, only in a harmonious and safe environment, the school's educational activities can be practically implemented. However, crises are ever-present, accidents inside and outside campus occur frequently. Regardless of the severity of any casualty, it will draw the attention from students, schools, parents and the community. The obstacle is basically a crisis, and the key to prevent and mange the crisis depends on whether there is an appropriate awareness of the situation, and an effective solution to the crisis. Therefore, the damage inflicted on the people must be reduced to a minimum through constant crisis management and effective crisis response procedures. The main basis of this research is theoretical foundation related to crisis management, analysis of the crisis management procedure, and detailed explanation of the applications of campus crisis management. In addition, taking the university mountaineering club as an example, and dividing the crisis management into the following three stages: prior to the crisis, during the crisis, and after the crisis. Before the crisis, the focus is placed on prevention and preparedness. During the crisis, handling and control is stressed. After the crisis, the focus is on the following up, learning and making proposals for specific measures. Following the qualitative research purposive sampling method to select and gather informative-rich cases, three university/college deans of Student Affairs, three student association guidance teachers and three student club presidents or important cadres, a total of nine people participated in this study. Apart from the establishment of trust between the researcher and participants, member check, triangulation, think description and other methods were also applied in order to establish the trustworthiness of this study. The information gathering method was mainly through semi-structured interviews. Since the study participants had experienced in handling university student mountaineering incidents, the interviews provided better understanding on when facing the crisis – both emotional and psychological reactions. With this knowledge, it helped the researchers to integrate the theory and the evidence, and effectively propose recommendations to school. The results of the study are as follows: 1. Study participants’ involvement and counseling the mountaineering course (1) Student There are different motives for joining student clubs. Adopt both of the rational and emotional style of leadership. Degree of family support and the high cost of mountain-climbing has become a barrier to participate in mountaineering activities. Have a very positive assessment towards mountaineering. The idea that mountaineering can open people’s mind, broaden people’s knowledge, cultivate people’s spirit of persistence and develop people’s capability of being a leader. (2) Social club’s guidance teachers Possesses the positive characteristics as to be an academic staff and assists students in their development. Counsels students on emphasizing safety when handling activities. Resistance comes from the school by not giving absolute support. Support from mountaineering club’s cohesiveness. Student’s enthusiasm for mountaineering brings out the man’s natural kindness in the teacher. (3) Dean of Student Affairs Possessed many administrative experiences. Student affairs are towards student services and student development. Affirm the value of mountaineering activities. Consider that students’ interaction with the nature can promote health and well-being. Perfecting preparations are prior to the mountaineering activity. 2. Crisis management awareness and recognition (1) Unclear definition of a crisis: Viewpoints of study participants on the crisis are divergent. In general, the crisis is a threat to security. Taking mountaineering as an example, experiencing a mountain incident is a crisis. (2) A divergent recognition on campus crisis: Student affairs staff paid considerable attention and understand the seriousness of a campus crisis, but students do not pay much attention. (3) The content of the crisis management: Prevention is better than cure. Simulate crisis situations and set out plans to deal with possible disruptions. Being prepared does not guard against mishaps. When faced with a crisis, the best way to handle the crisis is to face it and handle it swiftly. (4) Campus crisis management mechanisms: University security center functioning properly. Multilevel means of communication. Set up a unified spokesman. Being responsible and willing to learn about crisis prevention is the ideal mechanism for crisis management. 3. Responsibilities of the associated members in the university mountaineering club. (1) Administrative responsibilities. Climbers should have the ability of self-protection and self-management. The group manager and guide have a heavy responsibility on the safety of the activity. School counseling services should be implemented. (2) Civil liability and criminal liability. The study participants did not mention civil liabilities or criminal responsibilities, and this shows that they do not have the concept of legal responsibility. 4. Analysis of the mountaineering incident and the study participants. (1) The causes of the incident School A and school B lost contact due to poor weather conditions. School C was carrying a satellite phone so they did not lost contact, but they called twice for help. (2) Preparations prior to departure The proposal has to pass through 3 trials in the club. Strengthen physical training. Offer seminars to promote mountaineering knowledge. Pay attention to the weather and increase food supply. (3) Handling a crisis a. School’s handling of the crisis at the foot of the mountain: Investigate the situation and immediately form a response team. Have the commanding officer personally express concern of the situation. Maintain close contact with parents. Organize a meeting to update the situation to parents. School issuing a press release to set the record straight. Hold a news conference to the public. b. Climbers’ handling of the crisis on the mountain area: A conservative decision-making and place safety above all considerations. Find a safe camping site. Contact students that remained behind. Control of food supply. (4) Review of the outcome: The school is continuing to express its concern. Mountaineering club holds a mountain rescue review meeting and make the mountain rescue report in writing. Give gratitude to related personnel. The club holds training courses to pass on the experience. The club will get additional equipment. Organize seminars then invite teachers and students to participate. 5. The preparation of the mountain crisis management flowchart This study based on the above findings, offer concrete mountaineering crisis management proposals to educational authorities, schools, clubs, counseling teachers and students, and also offer recommendations for future research.

Global climate warming, abnormal changes, complex disaster problems are becoming more and more serious and frequent, Taiwan's annual typhoons, earthquakes and soil and stone flow and other complex disasters continue to frequent storms, county and city special search and rescue teams across the region to support the disaster relief model has become the norm, and every major international disaster occurred, international humanitarian relief work for the county and city special search and rescue However, the organizational design of the special search and rescue team has different organizational design and operation because of the different financial situation, fire manpower and preparation of each local government. Hualian County Special Search and rescue team was established on the January 13, 2018, in the organizational structure, operating mechanism has not been sound, immediately faced with 0206 Hualian earthquake. After this strong earthquake disaster relief experience, this study from the "normal setting group", "temporary task Group" or "normal and temporary mixed grouping" and other 3 different organizational structure design, organizational management model, to explore what kind of organizational design to help Hualian County Special Search and rescue team, in order to better operate. This study suggests that "normal and temporary mixed grouping" operation of the organization, can avoid the shortcomings of "temporary task grouping", but also have the advantage of "normal setting grouping", thus, organizational design "normal and temporary mixed grouping" can meet the Hualien County special rescue teams, cities and counties for special search and rescue team other similar situations likewise; in addition, the implementation of urban search and rescue professional training, equipment maintenance equipment to maintain combat skills each member a personal relief to keep skilled, trained by the opportunity to mobilize large-scale earthquake drills situational approach to team training, to be able to strengthen coordination within the organization to contact tacit vertical and horizontal direction.

ABSTRACT This study aimed to explore the local government's disaster response capacity. Due to the unique circumstances of Taiwan, earthquakes and typhoons, in the event of disaster, county and municipal governments must spend time in their respective prime rescue resources, dumping rescue survivors. To increase the chances of a successful rescue, there is need to integrate the energy of rescue resources within the county , so that the benefit in the event of a disaster to perform life rescue mission within the shortest time. The search and rescue team in Taipei is the most experienced, the best technology and equipment and the oldest search and rescue teamsi Taiwan. In this study, the Taipei City Government Fire Department rescue team adopt a comprehensive survey . According to their data structure ,the sample mean difference and homogeneity, a quantitative analysis has been finished. The results suggested Taipei rescue team should change to the official establishment, the Taipei City Fire Department rescue team of field officers should concentrate on their respective management, and increase frequency and time of natural disasters search and rescue-related training. Keywords: Taipei search and rescue team, disaster response capacity, rescue mission

Taiwan for her geographical location is subject to frequent visits by natural hazards including typhoon and earthquake that each time claimed major casualties and damage to the properties. Taipei City Government on considering its leading role in the control and prevention of natural hazards, and its duties to the citizens has created a dedicated rescue organization by referring to the similar mechanism abroad. With the metropolis hazard control as the hypothesis, this study explored into the hazard control theories including the natural hazard control mode, emergency control rational mode, integrated hazard control configuration in the hazard control mode; professional design of hazard control organization and emergency response organizational system in the hazard emergency response organization. Four different types of structure in the theories for the design of the organizational structure, namely, structure by function, structure by entity, matrix structure and horizontal structure are employed as the philosophy of the study. Hazard control and prevention systems respectively from Japan, USA and ROC, as well as risk control practices by Japan and USA are compared, followed with an in-depth discussion of the rescue teams among that from Japan, USA, Singapore and Taipei for a better understanding of the design of the organizational structure of rescue team in different nations. The study approaches are comprised of a summarized hazard control related theories and theories governing the design of organizational structure to develop principles of organizational structure. In terms of the purpose of organizational structure, identical objective, and principles of efficiency and control extent are defined; the organizational structure, hierarchy matching with functional authorities, job allocation and consistent command principles are addressed; and the process of organizational structure, principles of flexibility and convenient leadership are highlighted. The qualitative research and in-depth interview govern the methodology of this study aided by three cases of rescue operation for analysis. Primary findings of the study are described as follows: 1.In terms of the design principles and purpose of the organizational structure of the rescue team, the objective is the orientation for the organizational works and efforts of the rescue team. 2.For the efficiency of the design for the organizational structure of the rescue team, it comes up with the physical efficiency and formative efficiency, and the latter appears to be higher than the former. 3.Search and salvation staff members of the rescue team are subject to excessive extent of control resulting in disadvantages to the leadership and command in management or in rescue operation. 4.The size of the rescue team and the extent of hierarchy affect the operation of the organization. 5.The rescue command system is established in terms of the personal function and purpose of the commanding official, his influence upon his staff, and the relationship between the commanding system and the organization in conjunction with effective operation of command. 6.Aspects of the pros and cons depending on whether job functions have been precisely allocated shall be taken into consideration by those who are responsible for the design of the undertakings of the dedicated rescue organization. 7.Judging from the special nature of the rescue team, expedient leadership is preferred, plus the effective employment of leadership mode in the knowledge-based economic time to best prevail the potentials of the members in the rescue team. Secondary findings of the study are listed as follows: 1.An integrated emergency control configuration in place will help the working of a control operation procedure for the rescue team. 2.Both of the central and the local governments may follow the mobilization pattern for the joint governance in case of a hazard for pooling the human resources and expenditures exclusively for the dedicated rescue organization. 3.Through internal reformation, maintenance and integration of strategies, the professional design mode for the hazard control organization may be referred by the management of the rescue organization. 4.Whereas, the fire department in the public sector constitutes the main unit in the rescue operation in Taiwan, the existing organization of the fire department may be developed in an emergency organization in case of any major hazard judging from the theories of emergency response. 5.In performing its duties, the dedicated rescue organization shall complete the SWOT analysis to identify modes of strategy planning in the rescue operation. 6.The training for the members from the rescue team is insufficient, thus to affect the rescue operation 7.There is generally the absence of control model to follow, thus to affect the operation of the organization. Therefore, this study proposes the following recommendations: 1.An additional hierarchy of subdivision official in the assignment of duties of the rescue team, or the professional organizations of search and salvation shall be inserted to facilitate control, leadership and command. 2.It is preferred to put the members from the search units and the salvation units under the same control to facilitate the rescue operation. 3.The medical and engineering staff members shall be included in the organization of the fire department. For the subsequent studies, it is recommended that: 1.Applicability of the personal gears and the equipment of units divided by function shall be further investigated in the hope that the rescue team could be better and more effectively equipped; 2.The inclusion of the organization of the rescue team into the formal or provisional duty system (matrix-based organization) suits better the dedicated rescue organization; 3.Training for the members from the search unit and the search dog in the rescue team.

An earthquake measuring 7.3 in the Richter scale hit Nantou County at 1:47:12.6 am. on September 21, 1999; epicenter was 12.5 km west of the Sun Moon Lake. The strong movement of the earth fell buildings and caused landslides, and it caused more than 2,300 deaths, 8,700 injured, and millions of houses damaged, especially in Nantou anf Taichung County. All the high tech rescue equipment like heavy truck, communication, GPS, ropes, digging, cutting, lightening, life detector was not available, and professional rescue team was not establish either. It reduced the efficiency of disaster search and rescue. There were 38 foreign rescue teams, 728 members and 103 rescue dogs come from 20 countries join this mission. There’s no boundary search and rescue when disaster. They show their love and save six people via high tech life detector. Their quickness, cooperation, technique, equipment, and well management, made us to think the lack of technique and equipment in Taiwan. Therefore, it is necessary to learn the experience of establishing and running a rescue team in other countries to promote our search and rescue team with high-tech rescue equipment and to strengthen our system and the style of our rescue action. And finally take part in the rescue mission in the world. This research is mainly to discuss the organization and structure of a search and rescue team. And to collect the information of members, equipment, and supply with case analyzing, wishing to be an experience of local search and rescue team in a economy and reasonable efficiency.

The Special Search and Rescue Team is the main rescuing force on the occurrence of severe disasters in Taiwan. However, the incoherence between the equipment amount of withdrawing and returning of the equipment, and the difficulties of preserving transcripts are the managing problems faced during trainings and rescue missions. In order to cope with the high usage rate of equipment, the researcher has customized an equipment managing system for Kaohsiung Special Search and Rescue Team. It facilitates the two highest demands of their managing work, “Large Mission Equipment Withdrawal” and “Daily Inspection of Fixed Equipment on Fire Engines”, which is based on Enterprise Mobility Management, combined with web servers PHP 7, Apache HTTP Server 2.4, and the database MySQL 5. The record can be filled in by scanning QR code, allowing users to manage the equipment in different operating systems from different smart phones through the web browser, hence achieve the two goals- preserving the record of withdrawing mission equipment and reducing the rate of equipment loss. After applying the system to Kaohsiung Special Search and Rescue Team, it is clear that using transcripts to withdraw and inspect the equipment can be successfully replaced by digital management. Not only can the digital record be preserved in the long run, but also allows the team leader and members to check it any time. In addition, the convenience of filling in the data by scanning QR code enables the crew to file the equipment withdrawal record within the two-hour disaster response process, promoting their willingness of filing the record. Subsequent to the real tests and discussions, the system will add on crew management, reinforcing the equality of labor work of each member, and collecting the data of withdrawing and returning the equipment simultaneously, which can become a reference for purchasing in the future. RFID will also be an attempt for an alternative of filing the record, allowing the input to be more diverse and convenient.

The Urban search and rescue team plays an important role in disaster recovery, and its bearing pressure cannot be ignored. This study aims to investigate the effect of job stress on job satisfaction and further analyzes whether the relationship between job stress and job satisfaction is moderated by emotional control. Basing on the evidence from the Urban search and rescue team of new Taipei city fire department, we found that job stress has significantly negative effect on job satisfaction. Moreover, we also found that emotional control weakens the negative relationship between job stress and job satisfaction. It is thus suggested that the emotional control of urban search and rescue team could be strengthened either by professional consultation or administrative management and further lowers the negative impact of job stress on job satisfaction. Key Words: Urban search and rescue team, Job Stress, Emotional Control, Job Satisfaction

Mgr. Jana Majzlíková - Ideál hasiče a ideál supervizanta - snášejí se? ABSTRACT The work focuses on the question whether it is appropriate to the environment work with firefighters to implement supervision and, if so, how. For this purpose, the work compared the ideal of firefighters, what firefighters have themselves, and the ideal of supervisee what have supervisors, and examined their mutual compatibility. The research design was based on a qualitative approach. The data obtained from interviews with firefighters, supervisors, and from the focus group with firefighters were analyzed using analysis of qualitative data (open coding, thematic analysis). First, research has shown that the ideal of firefighters dominates gratitude for their work and willingness to help others. There is experience in supervision and open sharing stories about clients in the first place of the ideal of supervisee. Next, in both cultural ideals in addition include a common interest in people, understanding for others, tolerance, responsiveness to the needs of clients and people affected by a critical incident, empathy, empathic listening, interest in discussion and accessibility to the opinions of others. In both studied cultural environments courage is also appreciated. The supervisee must have the personal bravery "have skin...

Failure to recognize and respond to changes in a patient’s condition is a limitation in the effective utilization of Medical Emergency Teams (METs).
A system that uses smartphone technology to facilitate vital signs collection at bedside has been developed. The alerts engine, based upon Mount Sinai Hospital’s (MSH) MET calling criteria, can automatically alert the MET of patients exhibiting abnormal vital signs.
The system, without automated alerting, was piloted at MSH. Sensitivity and specificity calculations revealed that the MSH algorithm had a lower sensitivity and specificity than the Cuthbertson or the Modified Early Warning Score algorithms. This suggests that the MSH algorithm, compared to the others, was poor at identifying patients that did and did not require a MET consultation. Furthermore, the low positive predictive value suggests that the majority of alerts were not associated with a MET call. Therefore, the MSH algorithm is not recommended for the automated system.

In recent years, due to global warming and climate change, the problem of compound disasters is becoming more and more serious while more and more severe trial of relief work is also testing the rescue capabilities of relief personnel. Referring to the organization of human and equipment resources of the fire departments in other countries, possessing the independent firefighting system and organizational structure enables immediate mobilization and plays out the peacetime training as disasters happen, with the frontline operations obtaining sufficient supplies as the logistics staff provide adequate equipment and apparatus. “Good tools are prerequisite to the successful execution of a job.” As disaster rescue is the vocation of firefighters, sound organizational structure and training is also an issue worth exploring in addition to the various types of fire rescue equipment. However, personnel groupings and their properties vary in countries around the world and even in different places of Taiwan, it is, thus, imperative to propose advanced strategies regarding normal grouping, task forces, and mixed grouping. Take Fire Department, New Taipei City Government for instance. Both its number of firefighters and that of the types and quantities of equipment and apparatus are the highest in the country, therefore how to strengthen the task forces and refine their properties deserves the research and exploration. Accordingly, this study referred to the Special Search and Rescue Team of Fire Department, New Taipei City Government as example and conducted the data compilation and data analysis by means of the Analytic Hierarchy Process, AHP, so as to identify the most suitable task forces corresponding to its function, achieving the purposes of refining the properties, enriching the training, and optimizing the disaster relief power. The results of the study showed that the most important part lies in the selection of personnel grouping and “increase of the staff number on duty” in refinement and that " enhancement of professional training" comes to the second, followed respectively by "specification of dispatching units", " division of jurisdiction of disaster relief and its properties ", and "implementation of regular daily training." Additionally, considering the normal grouping, task forces and mixed grouping, the best solution is based chiefly on normal grouping. The results of this study provide the references in terms of personnel grouping and refining the properties for the Special Search and Rescue Team of Fire Department in the future.

Although the budgets of the government are limited, there are unlimited resources in their people. The use of civilian rescue teams has demonstrated its significance especially after the 921 major earthquakes. It has explicitly shows its importance within the international communities as well. On one hand, the governments are focusing on their efforts in emergency disastrous rescuing tasks. On the other, the civilian rescue has been incorporated into governmental disastrous rescue and prevention program. All of those efforts are dedicated to encourage all civilians to take part in disastrous rescue preventions. Therefore, it is very important to come up with a pioneering, comprehensive, and systematic strategic plan and through the execution of this strategic plan will lead to the disastrous prevention strategies and mechanism. On the other hand, civilian rescue teams, when facing emergency rescuing, how to eliminate the conflict between teams, as a result the efficacy of rescue teams will be increased. The civilian rescue teams have their advantages in their flexibility in forming the team, and the quickened responsive mechanism in nature. When the nature calamity occurs, they can quickly form teams which will answer the needs of the rescuing in a practical manner. However, it has its disadvantages and its shortcomings. When applying the rescues, it faces its obstacles such as the limited resources, the insufficient number of the rescue teams, and the lack of in-service training for the rescue team members. Those are the current shortcomings of the civilian rescue teams. This research based on the rescue teams of the Fire Department of Nantou County, which explores the internal management in order to understand the interaction mechanism. The subjects of this research are the going-to-be subordinate of rescue teams under the Fire Department of Nantou County. Through the in-depth latitude study and experience sharing, the efficacy of those civilian rescue teams is studied. When the disaster occurs, the government plays a major role in emergency rescue. However, the civilian rescue teams are governed and supervised by the government. When emergency occurs, the means of man power in responding emergency situations, the strategies used to maximize the efficacy of the rescue teams, the methods used to carry out practical in-service training, and the strategies used to overcome the internal leadership obstacles are studied by the researcher. There are two research methods used in this research; research reviews and participant observation. The researcher used those two methods to analyze the correlation of the efficacy of civilian rescue teams, the conflict management and the efficacy of the organization of the civilian rescue teams. The conclusions of this research are collected to reinforce the integrity of the civilian rescue teams, to maximize the efficacy of the civilian rescue teams, to maximize the efficacy of the organization, to provide strategic plans for the organization of the civilian rescue teams and to provide a strategic plan for the administration of the civilian rescue teams.

Pressure is quite often to be a hot issue for the fist-line rescuers. It also has key influence for the adjustment on work. Besides, rescuers’ organizations use team to be the unit. In this way, team trust factor is a quite important variable between team members. In our research, we plus the viewpoint of team trust into discussion. We aim to discuss the relationship between team trust, work pressure, and work adjustment on urgent rescuers (including firemen, volunteer firemen, and disaster corps). The total valid questionnaires are 840, and the return rate is 84%. After receiving, we use item analysis, factor analysis and reliability to discuss. As shows, all results reach well degree and the total explained variance is 69%. After factor analysis, we draw emotional trust, institutionalize trust, and cognitive trust from team trust construct. In work pressure construct, we draw out role overload, human relation, work essence, and outside organization factors. Finally, at the work adjustment construct, we draw work perform, work satisfaction, work essence, and work adoption. On the other way, as results show, team trust would promote the work adjustment, presents as negative relations to the work pressure. It means team trust would help to reduce work pressure. Finally, work pressure and work adjustment present negative relation.

Recently, major traffic accidents have been frequently spread. In addition to the ancient car and unmaintained mechanical maintenance, the overtime work of drivers has also been highlighted. For the world of labor, countries around the world are working to shorten working hours and enhance work flexibility. The trend of administrative legislation. However, few people have discussed and concerned about the burnout of the basic level government staff, especially the police and firefighters who are responsible for the safety of people's lives and property. Therefore, this study discusses the burnout of firefighters. Relevant research points out that the risk factors affecting burnout, in addition to the physical and working environment, work stressors is also one of the reasons for burnout. Therefore, this study tries to understand work stressors and personal factors and overwork were significantly related to burnout. The study aims to discuss the firefighter burnout. The firefighter from Search and Rescue Corps, Fire Bureau, Taichung City Government was invited to this survey and was asked to response to the demographic information, the perception of the sources of job stress, and the perception of work overload. A total of 65 valid samples were collected. Multivariate analysis of variance (ANOVA), Pearson's Correlation Coefficient, and Multiple Regression Analysis were adopted to validate the hypotheses of this study. The results of this study are follows: 1. The relationships between jobs burnout and individual burnout for firefighters are in medium or high correlations. Client burnout is less serious. 2. The significant antecedents of job stress for firefighters are role ambiguity and work overload. 3. Demographically variables are not significant to impact burnout for firefighters. Suggestions for firefighters: 1. Simplify fire work and reduce the workload. 2. Establish a dedicated unit to avoid role ambiguity. 3. Plan multiple leisure and pressure piping. Suggestions for follow-up studies: 1. Expand the scope of the study. 2. Add research variables. It is hoped that this study will seek ways to improve and recommend or provide a reference for improvement.

Using teams of autonomous, heterogeneous robots to operate in dangerous environments has a number of advantages. Among these are cost-effectiveness and the ability to spread out skills among team members. The nature of operating in dangerous domains means that the risk of loss is higher---teams will often lose members and must acquire new ones. In this work, I explore various recruitment strategies for the purpose of improving an existing framework for team management. My additions allow robots to more actively acquire new teams members and assign tasks among other robots on a team without the intervention of a team leader. I evaluate this framework in simulated post-disaster environments where the risk of robot loss is high and communications are often unreliable. My results show that in many scenarios, active recruitment strategies provide significant performance benefits.February 2017
