This article is dedicated to the study of the method of various term system analysis from term formation perspective. Herewith as the simple of analysis is studied aerospace terminology in Russian language. The main ways of term formation are divided into four groups: synthetic way, adoption, semantic metaphorization, analytic way. Each way and the nuances of its analysis are explained in detai...

What role do cultural factors play in the survival of a company that faces existential problems, especially if these problems relate to co-operation between organisations with different cultures? We try to provide some answers by looking at the decline of the Dutch aircraft manufacturer Fokker. In 1996 this company went bankrupt and among the causes of this event cultural factors rank high, at ...

Induction of cataracts by occupational exposure in flight crew has been an important topic of interest in aerospace medicine in the past five years, in association with numerous reports of flight-associated disease incidences. Due to numerous confounding variables, it has been difficult to determine if there is increased cataract risk directly caused by interaction with the flight environment, ...

Evolutionarily, man is a terrestrial mammal, adapted to land. Aviation and now space/microgravity environment, hence, pose new challenges to our physiology. Exposure to these changes affects the human body in acute and chronic settings. Since skin reflects our mental and physical well-being, any change/side effects of this environment shall be detected on the skin. Aerospace industry offers a u...

In order to meet the needs of state and society for improving quality undergraduate education cultivating innovative talents, individualized training mode has gradually become direction higher reform. China, there is a long-standing situation that talent cultivation out touch with industrial demand. explore talents in new era, idea scientific research as feedback teaching established this paper...

We present a case of gelastic seizures in a student naval aviator. He was noted to have uncontrollable fits of laughter on several occasions, but was not referred to his flight surgeon until he had a gelastic seizure while flying in formation, which jeopardized the safety of the flight. He had an aura consisting of lack of concentration, which was then followed by 10 s or less of hysterical lau...

Shape-memory actuators are used where a large force and stroke are required and thermodynamic efficiency is not essential. Since the discovery of shape memory in titanium-nickel, a number of inventions have been made having applications in medicine, aerospace, automotive, and consumer products. These devices range in size from meters to micrometers. Sales are now more than a hundred million USD...

Definition: As used in this document, Aerospace Medicine is the multi-disciplinary application of professional an...

In aerospace medicine, attention focuses on the effects of the loss of gravitational pull on the body. The more fundamental question involved is the basic physiology of anti-gravity mechanisms upon the body. From this viewpoint, the entire spectrum of the consequences of weightlessness may be seen. Then evidence affirming the broad concept of sensory deprivation in general, and anti-gravity dep...
