Navigating Paramedics' Safety

open access: yesInternational Journal of Paramedicine
Background: Ambulance drivers are more likely to be involved in fatal or injury collisions compared to other professional drivers. Study Objective: This study is a retrospective study aimed to describe factors involved in paramedics’ collisions. Method: Spanning over 10 years of data (2010-2019) from a paramedic agency covering Montreal (Qc, Canada),

Autonomous Unmanned Merchant Vessel and its Contribution towards the e-Navigation Implementation: The MUNIN Perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
While IMO's e-Navigation project's scope is to enhance safety of navigation by improved ship-to-shore-cooperation, the EU's FP7 project MUNIN's aim is to develop a concept for an autonomous dry bulk carrier, that is at least as safe as a manned vessel ...

From Rigid to Soft Robotic Approaches for Neuroendoscopy

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robotic assistance has had minimal impact on deep intraventricular surgeries, where small‐scale, precision, and reduced invasiveness can contribute to improved patient outcomes. Emerging technologies in rigid, soft, and hybrid robotics are reviewed to identify the most promising mechanisms for deep brain navigation in addition to an attempt to identify

Multiobjective Codesign Optimization of a Planar Pneumatic Artificial Muscle‐Based Snake‐Like Robot for Enhanced Agility and Energy Efficiency

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
A codesign multiobjective optimization framework was developed to enhance the morphology and controller of a snake‐like robot driven by artificial muscles. It improved planar locomotion, agility, and power efficiency. The approach optimized link geometry and controller gains, revealing that shorter muscles near joints and longer linkages maximize ...

Visual information transmission to navigators for the navigation safety

open access: yesJournal of Light & Visual Environment, 1977
For the navigators during coastal navigation at night, signal lights such as the navigational aids and the navigation lights of other ships should have a good visual transmission from the view point of navigation safety. In this paper the relation between the recognition of the signal and background lights is described.

A Study on Local Traffic Management to Improve Marine Traffic Safety in the Istanbul Strait

open access: yes, 2011
The Istanbul Strait is one of the most congested waterways in the world and is difficult to navigate due to its ‘S-shaped’ geographic structure (Akten, 2004). Much of the local marine traffic affects navigation safety. Results of Yurtoren and Inoue (2004)
