Abstract:
This study explored novel mixed reality (MR) use cases for pilot training using a mix of methods rooted in the general innovation theory of dynamic capabilities. The aim was to identify areas of improvement for various aspects of the flight training based on MR, in a socially and economically sustainable manner. Multiple surveys and workshops have been conducted with flight instructors, administrative staff, pilots and student pilots. The main result of this study is a systematic identification of the three most promising MR use cases: interactive theory training, cockpit procedure, and outsid

Abstract:
Hygroscopic seeding operations usually acquire cloud base updraft (positive vertical wind) velocities from pilot estimates. Though useful, pilot estimates are subjective and hence potentially inconsistent from case to case and from one project to the next. The Aircraft-Integrated Meteorological Measurements System (AIMMS) provides an objective measurement of updrafts. The objective is to use AIMMS measurement to evaluate pilot estimates of updrafts encountered while flying under developing cumulus clouds. The analysis compares the pilot estimated maximum updraft to statistical distribution par

Fly‐by‐wire systems enable superior control of chosen flight parameters. A pilot can modify stabilized parameters by adequate movement of control inceptors such as a side‐stick or trust lever. Fly‐by‐wire control reduces the load on a pilot and allows a pilot to focus on the main tasks. Unfortunately, the use of more complicated interfaces between human and machine can cause incorrect pilot behavior and in many cases lead to erroneous interactions between the operator and effective aircraft dynamics.

The objective is most relevant for the sweet production based on fondant cases – energetically unstable systems with a high sucrose concentration (more than 80 %) and a simple chemical composition causing the rapid consumer properties loss during storage. The study aims at the scientific use justification of the new raw material – amaranth meal powder in the technology of sweets with fondant case. The study objects are the following: amaranth meal of the native speci

Abstract:
The Production and Distributed Analysis system (PanDA) is a pilot-based workload management system that was originally designed for the ATLAS Experiment at the LHC and to use with grid sites. Since the coming LHC data taking runs will require more resources than grid computing alone can provide, the various LHC experiments are engaged in an ambitious program to extend the computing model to include opportunistically used resources such as High Performance Computers (HPCs), clouds and volunteer computers. To this end, PanDA is being extended beyond grids and ATLAS to be used on the new types of

20 Background: The cost of cancer care is an enormous healthcare burden. Most inpatient chemotherapy is not reimbursed because of diagnosis-related group codes. We have previously reported inpatient chemotherapy and immunotherapy (IC) is associated with poorer outcomes for patients with advanced stage solid tumor (ST) vs hematologic malignancy (HM) patients. 1 We piloted the use of a novel objective scoring rubric to guide and automate IC stewardship at an academic cancer center to decrease the inappropriate use of inpatient administration of costly therapies in patients especially at the end

The removal efficiencies of bacteria, bacterial spores, and viruses after a change in source water and water pH in coagulation were studied at pilot scale in coagulation with flotation, rapid sand filtration, and disinfection with UV and chlorine.

In recent years, land use data from the EU’s Integrated Administration and Control System (IACS) have become increasingly available for research purposes. IACS data contain annual plot-level information on cultivation and location of the land farmed by agricultural beneficiaries, covering the majority of farmland in the EU. The data thus provide information on land use that is spatially and temporally highly disaggregated. Researchers from a broad range of disciplines already rely on IACS data for various applications and EU member states must make an anonymised, geospatially-referenced versio

Winter operations have long posed unique problems for the aviation community. According to Federal Aviation Regulations, no pilot may take off in an aircraft that has ice, snow, or frost adhering to the surface. This “clean aircraft concept” is difficult, if not impossible, for the pilots to assess from inside the aircraft. Equipment is in development to furnish the flight deck with icing information; however, these devices are not widely available and in many cases require costly retrofits. Pilots, unable to assess their aircraft’s external condition, often choose to return for additional dei

Cationic polymers were found to coat bubbles resulting in charge reversal and increasingly positive EPM. Batch bench-scale dissolved air flotation (DAF) studies show promising benefits from the addition of cationic or non-ionic polymers to the saturated recycle line of conventional DAF. In cases where low turbidity, low color waters are being treated, direct DAF compared well with conventional DAF. Polymer addition improved the percentage solids of the float. Anionic polymers were not found to be effective. Further research at the pilot and full-scale is needed to verify these findings.
