Battle management command and control (BMC2) is a communicationsintensive activity. Weapons directors and mission crew commanders on these platforms are required to monitor as many as eight simultaneous communications channels against a background of moderate to high ambient cabin noise while performing a number of visual and manual tasks, a combination which in the heat of battle is challengin...

An asymmetric dielectric barrier discharge model is presented for real gas eight species air chemistry using a self-consistent multi-body system of plasma, dielectric and neutral gas modeled together to predict the electrodynamic momentum imparted to the working gas. The equations governing the motion of charged and neutral species are solved with Poisson equation on finite elements using a Gal...

Thin layer drying of Russian olive (Elaeagnusan gastifolial L.) fruit using a hot air dryer in order to calculate effective moisture diffusivity, activation energy and energy consumption has been evaluated in this article. The selected variables included three levels of air velocity of 0.5, 1 and 1.5 m/s and three air temperature levels of 50, 60 and 70°C. Increased air temperature...

Radon and its decay products are the main source of ionizing radiation in non-industrial buildings. They are responsible for about half of the radiation dose people in Poland are exposed to [1]. Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that originates from the decay of radium (226Ra) in the primordial uranium (238U) decay series. Radon concentrations in buildings are usually higher than o...

This study addresses the significant changes in air transportation for Turkey with opening of Istanbul Airport and investigates advantages disadvantages brought about by new airport. Previously; providing a service Istanbul, Atatürk had limited capacity terms resulting mostly ineffective use time resources. Thus; this points out how İstanbul solves problems experienced previously expectations b...
