Risks due to X-ray Flares during Astronaut Extravehicular Activity
Solar hard X-ray flares can expose astronauts on lunar and deep space extravehicular activities (EVAs) to dangerous acute biological doses. We combine calculations of radiative transfer through shielding materials with subsequent transfer through tissue to show that hazardous doses, taken as ≥ 0.1 Gy, should occur with a probability of about 10% per 100 hours of accumulated EVA inside current s...
متن کاملDecompression sickness during simulated extravehicular activity: ambulation vs. non-ambulation.
BACKGROUND Extravehicular activity (EVA) is required from the International Space Station on a regular basis. Because of the weightless environment during EVA, physical activity is performed using mostly upper-body movements since the lower body is anchored for stability. The adynamic model (restricted lower-body activity; non-ambulation) was designed to simulate this environment during earthbo...
متن کاملWorkload status and its relationship with job stress in nurses during the COVID-19 pandemic
Background and Purpose: Currently, the high prevalence of COVID-19 and increased workload in hospitals has posed a threat to the physical, mental, and emotional health of nurses. The present study was an attempt to investigate the workload and its relationship with job stress of nurses in COVID-19 reference hospitals in southern Iran. Methods: This descriptive-analytical and cross-sectional s...
متن کاملEffect of coronavirus epidemic on job stress and mental workload: A longitudinal study in a chemical industry
Background and aims: The outbreak of COVID-19 is currently a major concern, and timely understanding of peoplechr('39')s mental health status in the workplace has become an important issue. Physical-psychological parameters such as mental workload and job stress are among the most important components in determining the job performance of employees in work environments. This study aimed to eval...
متن کاملComputational simulation of extravehicular activity dynamics during a satellite capture attempt.
A more quantitative approach to the analysis of astronaut extravehicular activity (EVA) tasks is needed because of their increasing complexity, particularly in preparation for the on-orbit assembly of the International Space Station. Existing useful EVA computer analyses produce either high-resolution three-dimensional computer images based on anthropometric representations or empirically deriv...
