This study tackles the complex task of constructing a dynamic model navigator, planning their experience trajectory, and making decisions under navigational risks in maritime industry using automated control systems. proposed mathematical accounts for individual skills, experiences, personalities, while considering unpredictable dynamics. asserts importance adaptable systems capable simulating ...

This research paper includes the eye-direction-based safety automated navigation system that was implemented for elderly and physically challenged people. The purpose of this is to avoid assistance required system, which controls motorised wheelchair navigation, depends on pupil detection. sequential images were captured via Bluetooth specs glass using an image processing technique. navigates i...

BACKGROUND We evaluated the efficacy of a Chicago-based cancer patient navigation program developed to increase the proportion of patients reaching diagnostic resolution and reduce the time from abnormal screening test to definitive diagnostic resolution. METHODS Women with an abnormal breast (n = 352) or cervical (n = 545) cancer screening test were recruited for the quasi-experimental study...

The shipping routes of the South China Sea (SCS) are of major significance in global trade and global economy. However, the shipping routes of the SCS are frequently threatened by both natural and manmade factors, such as complex submarine topography, extreme weather, and piracy. Previous studies of shipping safety in the SCS mainly focused on the individual ship safety and broader political po...

In the present study, formal safety assessment (FSA) is introduced to investigate lockage safety of LNG-fueled ships. Risk sources during lockage of LNG-fueled ships in four typical scenarios, namely, navigation between two dams, lockage, anchorage, and fueling, are identified, and studied in combination with fundamental leakage probabilities of various components of LNG storage tanks, and simu...

Elderly persons often face biological, psychological or social changes over time that may cause discomfort or morbidity. While some cognitive domains remain stable over time, others undergo a decline. Spatial navigation is a complex cognitive function essential for independence, safety and quality of life. While egocentric (body-centered) navigation is quite preserved during aging, allocentric ...

Safety culture is broadly recognized as important for Air Traffic Management and various studies have addressed its characterization and assessment. Nevertheless, relations between safety culture and formal and informal organizational structures and processes are yet not well understood. We aim to improve the understanding of these relations by agent-based organizational modeling and thus provi...

The choice of roll stabilization system is critical for many types of ships. For warships where operational activities are fast and the concept of time is very effective, determining the most appropriate of these systems is of particular importance. Some operations, such as the landing of the helicopter on board, are critical for naval ships. Unwanted rolling motion makes this difficult. In add...

The Federal Aviation Administration is leading the National Airspace System modernization effort, in part, by supplanting traditional air traffic services with the Global Positioning System (GPS) aided by the Wide and Local Area Augmentation Systems (WAAS & LAAS). Making GPS the primary-means of navigation will enhance safety, flexibility and efficiency of operations for all aircraft ranging fr...

against the range-dependent accuracy of the tracking radar measurements including range, elevation and bearing angles, a new hybrid adaptive kalman filter is proposed to enhance the performance of the radar aided strapdown inertial navigation system (ins/radar). this filter involves the concept of residual-based adaptive estimation and adaptive fading kalman filter and tunes dynamically the fil...
