Pilot-in-the-loop simulated flight tests of a loss-of-control prediction and prevention system for NASA's Transport Class Model
In an effort to improve the overall safety of the current and future air transportation system, researchers have been investigating the causes and series of events that can potentially lead to aircraft loss of control (LoC) as well as methods to prevent the occurrence of such events. This …

Low-Cost Wearable Head-Up Display for Flight General Aviation
<p>A low-cost wearable Commercial-off-The-Shelf (COTS) Augmented Reality (AR) Head-Up Display (HUD) system is designed, successfully reduced to practice, and flight tested. The system is developed based on the need for a technology that improves loss-of-control (LOC) safety in the General Aviation …

The Nosological Status of Loss of Control over Eating in Children
A significant subset of overweight children report loss of control: LOC) over eating: i.e., feeling unable to stop eating), a correlate of poorer psychosocial functioning and obesity. Another obesogenic appetitive trait, high food reinforcement, is characterized by a strong drive to obtain …

The overvaluation of weight or shape as a defining feature of binge eating disorder : a population-based investigation of psychopathology and psychosocial impairment
… (BED) is characterised by the consumption of an abnormally large amount of food and the experience of a loss of control over one's eating. Concerns have been raised around the absence of a cognitive criterion, namely overvaluation of weight or shape toward one's self-worth (overvaluation), …

A new approach to modeling aviation accidents
… flights. GA aircraft account for almost 97% of the US civil aviation fleet. Unfortunately, GA flights have a much higher fatal accident rate than commercial operations. Recent estimates by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) showed that the GA fatal accident rate has remained relatively …

Fly Like a Naval Aviator: Effect of Procedural Angle-of-Attack Training on Pilot Comprehension and Decision-Making in General Aviation
… and operators, the FAA streamlined installation of angle of attack (AOA) systems in GA fleets. Yet studies suggest GA pilots are ill-equipped to use these systems without training. Pilot performance suffers when an AOA is added to the flight deck because pilots’ knowledge with these systems is …
