‘We had to climb mountains and cross fast-flowing rivers’
It was Dr Vincent Zigas who first started research into kuru and Dr Carleton Gajdusek joined him later. Vincent would drop us off and pick us up with his Landrover and we would patrol through the kuruaffected region with Carleton. Vincent was from Europe and we had great difficulty in understanding his Tok Pisin. He knew this, so he would purposely talk in a way that made us laugh. He was a goo...
متن کاملOptimum Supersonic Climb
In this paper, a simple, non-sensitive, robust, and accurate computational procedure is presented and it does not require a prior knowledge of a reference trajectory for computing the optimum trajectory for minimum-time-toclimb to a prescribed final altitude of a supersonic aircraft. From the program, we fnst generate the possible range of initial Mach numbers, initial altitudes and climb times...
متن کاملScales to climb borderline personalities: when science goes nowhere.
Although these psychosocial scales are increasingly used, scepticism and confusion remain regarding the ability of many scales to summarise composite indices and if they are meaningful in orienting a conclusive clinical decision. We explore some of the limitations regarding scales use and misuse in science. The purpose of the review by Binks et al. [1] is to evaluate the evidence for the effica...
متن کاملMachine Learning Applied to Airspeed Prediction During Climb
In this paper, we apply Machine Learning methods to improve the aircraft climb prediction in the context of groundbased applications. Mass and speed intent are key parameters for climb prediction. As they are considered as competitive parameters by many airlines, they are currently not available to groundbased trajectory predictors. Consequently, most predictors today use reference parameters t...
متن کاملTaking stories to the mountains
Children born in societies with a heavy social burden of HIV/AIDS, poor health and nutrition, and limited stimulation face additional challenges to flourishing before they turn six compared to children in societies that are not characterized by these environmental strains. Particularly, multiply-stressed caregivers, affected by HIV/AIDS and poverty, might have a limited capacity to provide care...
