PurposeMaintaining a high level of situation awareness (SA) is considered one of the most essential elements for safe and effective flight operations. In a study of accidents among major air carriers, 88 per cent of those involving human error could

Human error is often cited as a major contributing factor or cause of incidents and accidents. Incident surveys in aviation have attributed 70 per cent of incidents to crew error. Although a large proportion of the accidents can be attributed to huma

We present a procedure for determining the reduced piezoelectric, dielectric and elastic coefficients for a C ∞ material, including losses, from a single disk sample. Measurements have been made on a Navy III PZT (Channel 5804) ceramic sample and t
