"AVIATOR'S ASTRAGALUS" [PDF]

open access: possibleThe Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1952
1. Although fractures and dislocations of the talus have been described since 1608 the rarity of the more severe and complicated injuries has meant a dearth of accurate descriptions or classification in the literature. 2. A series of 228 injuries of the talus occurring in members of the Royal Air Force between 1940 and 1943 has been reviewed. 3.

Alcohol and aviation

Addiction, 1997
AbstractAviation accidents due to alcohol consumption by aircrew appear to be rare, especially in commercial aviation. However, a small proportion of general aviation accidents are attributable to alcohol use by aircrew, and aircrew are not well informed about the metabolism of alcohol and its effects on performance. Furthermore, there is evidence that

Fatigue in aviation

Travel Medicine and Infectious Disease, 2005
Pilot fatigue is a significant, but often under-reported problem in both civilian and military aviation operations. Although estimates vary, official statistics indicate that fatigue is involved in at least 4-8% of aviation mishaps, and surveys of pilots and aircrew members reveal that fatigue is an important concern throughout today's 24/7 flight ...

Model Building for Diagnostic Variables during Aviation Equipment Maintenance

International Conference on Computer Science and Information Technologies, 2022
Mathematical model building gives the possibility to recognize mathematical dependence for different parameters of actual phenomena. The model building in aviation plays a significant role, because it directly effects on safety of flights. Such procedure

Medicine in aviation

The American Journal of Medicine, 1948
Abstract The technical advances in aircraft are lessening the number of medical contraindications for flying. The increased efficiency of oxygen systems and the increasingly extensive use of such systems has made it safer now than formerly for the patient with hypoxia to fly.
