Abstract Flight safety is an integral part of air transportation. accidents are highly unlikely to appear but most them caused by the human factor. The aircrew training system for abnormal operations relies on integrated aircraft simulator-based exercises. Crew needs be trained not degrade piloting technique quality when facing increased psychophysiological tension. Therefore, methods evaluatin...

One of the mostly used enhanced oil recovery methods is the injection of water or gas under pressure to maintain or reverse the declining pressure in a reservoir. Several parameters should be optimized in a fluid injection process. The usual optimizing methods evaluate several scenarios to find the best solution. Since it is required to run the reservoir simulator hundreds of times, the process...

Alaska Simulator Toolset is an interactive software suite developed at the University of Innsbruck which allows to explore different approaches to process flexibility by using a familiar metaphor, i.e., travel planning and execution. In particular, Alaska Simulator Toolset is used for studying research questions in the context of business process management and other related fields. For this, A...

In this paper, a novel methodology for batch plant safety analysis is proposed using process dynamic modelling. Batch processes are divided into several safety objects that are linked to operation level. Safety objects are evaluated by dynamic simulation and fault propagation models are generated. By using this model, an improved fault tree analysis (FTA) method using house event-time (HET) is ...

purpose: to assess various aspects of integrating a virtual reality (vr) simulator in the training of ophthalmology residents methods: in this qualitative study, some aspects of the vr eyesi simulator as a health technology were assessed. data was collected using a multiple-choice questionnaire and several deep interviews addressed to users and administrators of simulator training. face and con...

The goal of this project was to develop a structured process for evaluating the capability of simulators to support mariner performance assessment. In this approach, simulator evaluation objectives and criteria are based on performance-based mariner assessment requirements. The approach produces a simulator evaluation protocol that addresses four areas of simulator capability: (1) providing fle...
