Basic Principles of Adaptive Learning through Variation and Selection

The evolutionary theory relies on the principles of variation and selection to explain adaptation. It is reasonable to fit these powerful principles to the learning theory. A number of selectionist approaches were proposed but found modest recognition so far. This theoretical paper attempts to review an application of basic ideas of the evolutionary adaptation to the lifetime learning. The anal...

Basic Concepts and Principles

This paper reviews and discusses some key concept and principles of risk analysis and risk management, based on a set of statements, formulated as myths about risk. Examples of such myths are: risk is equal to the expected value, risk equals uncertainty, risk can be expressed by probabilities, risk is equal to an event, risk acceptance criteria contribute to obtaining a high safety standard, an...

Basic Principles of Crashworthiness

Crashworthiness can be defined as the ability of an aircraft and its internal systems to protect occupants from injury in the event of a crash. In general, injury in aircraft crashes can be considered to arise from three distinct sources: (1) excessive acceleration forces; (2) direct trauma from contact with injurious surfaces, and; (3) exposure to environmental factors such as fire, smoke, wat...
