Abstract Background A number of working time arrangements have been linked to negative consequences for both health personnel and their patients.A common hypothesis put forth to explain these findings suggests that certain working time arrangements lead to negative patient consequences due to the adverse impact they have on employee health.The purp

Our motivation comes from the need of a tailored computational tool for simulation and prediction of forest fire propagation, to be used by firefighters in Patagonia, Argentina.Based on previous works on Graphic Processing Units (GPU) for fitting and simulating fires in our region, we developed a visualization interface for real time computing, sim

This paper presents an investigation into the gust response and wing structure load alleviation of a 200-seater aircraft by employing a passive twist wingtip (PTWT).The research was divided into three stages.The first stage was the design and analysis of the baseline aircraft, including aerodynamic analysis, structural design using the finite eleme

Distribution system operators (DSOs) have difficulty in scheduling distributed energy resources owing to the increasing power demand and penetration of renewable energy.The goal of this study is to determine the charging/discharging of PV energy-integrated energy storage system (PV-ESS), EV charging price, and demand response (DR) incentive values
