The Impact of Bridge Alerts on Navigating Officers

Journal of Navigation, 2019
New navigation-related technologies and complex ships' systems are associated with a considerable amount of information and alerts on navigational bridges. Each alert triggers a process conducted by the Officer Of the Watch (OOW), which includes data collection and interpretation, decision making, as well as appropriate actions. In the case of too many

Probabilistic modeling of navigation bridge officer's behavior

2014 IEEE Symposium on Computational Intelligence in Vehicles and Transportation Systems (CIVTS), 2014
The performance of a navigating officer in critical situations is uncertain and has to be considered in a probabilistic framework, since this may provide an in depth insight in the human - machine interaction. Such a systematic approach will have the objective to understand, to predict and to minimize the role of the human as a causal factor for a ...

The body sway of human navigator in ship's bridge simulator

SMC'03 Conference Proceedings. 2003 IEEE International Conference on Systems, Man and Cybernetics. Conference Theme - System Security and Assurance (Cat. No.03CH37483), 2004
In order for the navigator to handle the ship for safe navigation, he/she judges the navigational information through the five senses. Here, we think that visual information is the most important because it is said to occupy eighty percent of the whole information.

Navigating the Complexities of Rooftop Sky Bridge Construction

Structures Congress 2014, 2014
The use of multi-tower sky bridges is a growing trend in tall building design, expanding the programmatic opportunities beyond the tower footprint. More than just pedestrian link bridges, the scale of these immense structures can accommodate a diverse range of program and amenities.

Inertial Navigation: A Bridge Between Kinematics and Calculus

The Physics Teacher, 2012
Those who come to Cambridge soon learn that the fastest route between Harvard and MIT is by the subway. For many students, this short ride is a quick and easy way to link physics and calculus. A simple, homemade accelerometer provides all the instrumentation necessary to produce accurate graphs of acceleration, velocity, and displacement position on ...

US 60 Smithland Bridge – Navigation Modeling

IABSE Reports, 2017
<p>As part of the bridge type study for this major bridge replacement project over the Cumberland River, an innovative approach to addressing the needs of the navigation industry and expediting the new bridge span arrangement and Coast Guard approval process was used.

Model of the Adaptive Information System on a Navigational Bridge

Journal of Navigation, 2016
Adaptive Information Systems (AdIS) are systems responsive to environmental changes or changes in a ship's systems. In this paper the potential of shipboard AdIS to decrease an officer's excessive workload are examined. The workload of the Officer Of the Watch (OOW) consists of tasks being initiated by the OOW and by external inputs.

Navigating a nursing curriculum: bridges and barriers.

The ABNF journal : official journal of the Association of Black Nursing Faculty in Higher Education, Inc, 1997
As increasing numbers of students from non-traditional sources enter the baccalaureate nursing program, retention of these educationally, socially, and economically disadvantaged and older students have become important to a nursing program's continued viability. To retain these students, nurse educators need to become more sensitive to the educational
