Methods: Data from three observational, retrospective studies are reported: carbohydrate metabolism, painful diabetic neuropathy (PDN), and hospital/ emergency department utilization. All studies utilized controlled microbursts of insulin via the Bionica Microdose system in patients with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Indirect calorimetry was used to determine carbohydrate and metabolic rate measu...

Many aircraft accidents each year are caused by encounters with unseen airflow hazards near the ground such as vortices, downdrafts, wind shear, microbursts, or other turbulence. While such hazards frequently pose problems to fixed-wing airplanes, they are especially dangerous to helicopters, which often have to operate in confined spaces and under operationally stressful conditions. We are dev...

The Lincoln Laboratory Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR) testbed was used to carry out an experimental and operational hazardous weather product evaluation program for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) at the Kansas City International (KCI) airport during the summer of 1989. The objective of the program was to test and refine previously tested techniques for the automatic detection ...

Abstract This article presents the results of experimental research on effect high-frequency electromagnetic field treatment fruit juice. The interaction energy with food was studied example apples. Based dependence kinetics juice release from fruits duration exposure to an extremely high frequency field. Comparative analysis apple obtained by ultra-high and traditional methods. Treatment 2400 ...

This paper provides a brief review of the role that chorus waves play in controlling the dynamics of the Earth’s outer radiation belt. Three major topics are discussed: (i) the morphology, characteristics, and properties of chorus waves themselves, with special emphasis on more recent results, (ii) the role that chorus waves play in the loss of radiation belt particles, showing initial results ...

Airport surveillance radars (ASR) utilize a broad, cosecant-squared elevation beam pattern, rapid azimuthal antenna scanning, and coherent pulsed-Doppler processing to detect. and track approaching and departing aircraft. These radars, because of location, rapid scan rate, and direct air traffic control (ATe) data link, can also provide flight controllers with timely information on weather cond...
