On July 25, 2010, Arnold Ebneter flew across the country in a plane he designed and built himself, setting an aviation world record for aircraft of its class. He was eighty-two at the time and the flight represented the culmination of a dream hed cultivated since his childhood in the 1930s.Eileen Bjorkman herself a pilot and aeronautical engineer frames her fathers journey from teenage airplane enthusiast to Air Force pilot and Boeing engineer in the context of the rise, near extermination, and ongoing interest in homebuilt aircraft in the United States. She gives us a glimpse into life growing up in a flying family with two pilots for parents, a family plane named Charlie, and quite literally, a propeller under her parents bed.From early airplane designs serialized in magazines to the annual Oshkosh Fly-in where you can see experimental aircraft on display, Bjorkman offers a personal take on the history of building something in your garage that you can actually (and legally) fly as well as how the homebuilt aircraft movement has contributed to aviation and innovation in America.

The growing mobility needs of travellers have led to the development of increasingly complex and integrated multi-modal transit networks. Hence, transport agencies and transit operators are now more urgently required to assist in the challenging task of effectively and efficiently planning, managing, and governing transit networks. A pre-condition for the development of an effective intelligent multi-modal transit system is the integration of information and communication technology (ICT) tools that will support the needs of transit operators and travellers. To achieve this, reliable real-time simulation and short-term forecasting of passenger demand and service network conditions are required to provide both real-time traveller information and successfully synchronise transit service planning and operations control. Modelling Intelligent Multi-Modal Transit Systems introduces the current trends in this newly emerging area. Recent developments in information technology and telematics have enabled a large amount of data to become available, thus further attracting transport researchers to set up new models outside the context of the traditional data-driven approach. The alternative demand-supply interaction or network assignment modelling approach has improved greatly in recent years and has a crucial role to play in this new context.s

Spare Parts Inventory Management: A Complete Guide to Sparesology(R)addresses the issues confronting personnel duringthe entire life cycle of inventory management, from establishing a system for management, identifying the need for a part,to physical management, and even final disposal. All areas involving spare parts inventory are considered, includingfinancial implications, developing processes that allow for good decision making, establishing a robust parts identificationsystem, operation, maintenance, procurement, and stock takes.As a spare parts expert with extensive industry experience, author Phillip Slater has coined the word Sparesology to refer tothe discipline of optimizing the physical and financial processes, as well as the human resource management of spare parts.More than just inventory optimization, Sparesology requires an understanding of the complete "ecosystem" within whichspare parts are managed, and seeks to ensure that ALL factors influencing spare parts management work together inharmony to achieve and sustain an organization's goals.

Written by an internationally recognized teacher and researcher, this book provides a thorough, modern treatment of the aerodynamic principles of helicopters and other rotating-wing vertical lift aircraft such as tilt rotors and autogiros. The text begins with a unique technical history of helicopter flight, and then covers basic methods of rotor aerodynamic analysis, and related issues associated with the performance of the helicopter and its aerodynamic design. It goes on to cover more advanced topics in helicopter aerodynamics, including airfoil flows, unsteady aerodynamics, dynamic stall, and rotor wakes, and rotor-airframe aerodynamic interactions, with final chapters on autogiros and advanced methods of helicopter aerodynamic analysis. Extensively illustrated throughout, each chapter includes a set of homework problems. Advanced undergraduate and graduate students, practising engineers, and researchers will welcome this thoroughly revised and updated text on rotating-wing aerodynamics.

A principio de los años noventa, cuando combinábamos nuestro trabajo en el campo de la seguridad con el estudio de la Prevención de Riesgos Laborales, y nos enfrentábamos entonces a nuestros primeros planes de autoproteccion, experimentamos la necesidad de disponer de informacion sobre experiencias reales que pudieran aclarar todo el caudal teorico de conocimientos que estabamos recibiendo. Veinte años mas tarde, cuando decidimos escribir el presente manual para cubrir la carencia o vacio detectado, tuvimos claro desde el principio que este deberia constar de tres partes. La primera parte no presento dudas, ya que se trataba de relacionar lo dispuesto en la Norma Basica de Autoproteccion con toda la normativa tecnica al respecto, tratando de exponerlo de una manera sencilla y clara.Para la parte segunda y tercera de este libro decidimos incluir en el manual un caso real de plan de autoproteccion y su correspondiente simulacro,con el objeto de ofrecer al lector un instrumento valido que le facilite la tarea de realizar un plan de autoproteccion y su implantacion de manera practica y profesional, asumiendo con ello los autores las limitaciones que podia plantear el ejemplo, con sus pros (exposicion y tratamiento de un caso real) y sus contras (limitar a un unico ejemplo la

Son diversos los autores que han definido el concepto de funciones ejecutivas pero, simplificando, podríamos decir que son un conjunto de procesos cognitivos -vinculados a los lóbulos frontales- que permiten a la persona la planificacion de estrategias para lograr un objetivo; la autorregulacion de las tareas y la habilidad de efectuarlas de forma eficiente. Los procesos cognitivos que intervienen en las funciones ejecutivas son variados pero, podriamos destacar, entre otros, a modo de resumen: planificacion, memoria de trabajo, fluidez verbal, atencion, razonamiento, autocontrol y flexibilidad, Los ejercicios contenidos en los cinco cuadernos de la coleccion "EJERCICIOS PARA EL REFUERZO DE LAS FUNCIONES EJECUTIVAS" trabajan dichos procesos cognitivos y estan pensados para ser utilizados a partir de los 6 años (el nivel basico) y de los 7 años el resto de niveles, siendo de utilidad para todas aquellas personas que, independientemente de la causa, tenga que estimular o reforzar dichos procesos.
