Impacts of Introducing Automation in Mining Operations: Insights From Worker Perceptions

open access: yesSafety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
This study shows that trust is the strongest predictor of mining workers' situation awareness when using automated systems. Communication and coordination also improve situation awareness through trust, highlighting the need for human‐centered system design and training that support calibrated trust and effective teamwork in safety‐critical operations.

Alignment of Agile and Modular Open Systems Approach (MOSA) Principles in Systems Engineering

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Organizations have consistently sought faster and more efficient methods for producing and delivering products. Agile principles offer essential guidance for shaping their policies and practices. The Agile Manifesto (AM) outlines 12 core principles for guiding software development but can also be applied in other contexts.

Environmental Impact of Silicic Magmatism in Large Igneous Province Events

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 133-151., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Enabling Science for an Interconnected World: Designing Human Systems for Discovery

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Many of today's most pressing scientific challenges arise from interactions among natural, human, and technical systems. Yet the institutions through which science is conducted remain largely organized along disciplinary and organizational boundaries.

Field evaluations of thermal optics and tracking tunnels for small mammal surveys at airports and grass dominated habitats

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
Small mammal survey tools are needed at airports to help inform aircraft strike‐risk management. We evaluated thermal optics and tracking tunnels as small mammal survey tools. We conclude that thermal optics would not be a viable survey tool for mouse‐sized mammals (19‐41 g) at airfields and other thick grass habitats unless grass height was maintained

Research Progress on Electrical Insulation Under Superimposed Voltage With High‐Frequency Harmonics in New‐Type Power Systems

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A new‐type power system serves as a critical technical support for the integration of new energy, and its secure and stable operation is of great importance. However, the extensive utilisation of power electronic devices leads to power equipment insulation being subjected to electrical stresses of high‐frequency harmonics, which can easily ...
