The Sensitivity to Motion Sickness Induced by Aircraft and Flight Training Devices and the Role of Experience During Flight Training
… which can be incapacitating and can prevent training, is ill-established in career paths where motion or simulated motion is commonplace. To assess different aspects of this problem, each of 175 Embry-Riddle student pilots early in their training and 43 Embry-Riddle student non-pilots …

Evaluation of novel tool to ensure asthma and COPD patients use the approved inhalation technique when they use an inhaler. Clinical pharmacy studies investigating the impact of novel inhalation technique training devices and spacers on the inspiratory characteristics, disease control and quality of life of patients when using their inhalers.
… patients misuse their inhaler. Although training improves their inhaler technique, patients do forget the correct inhaler use with time. In the current work, three clinical studies investigated novel tools designed with feedback mechanisms to ensure patients use the correct inhalation …

ACCELERATING DNN INFERENCE AND TRAINING IN DISTRIBUTED SYSTEMS
… complex, which introduces extremely long DNN training time. Although DNN inference typically runs a single round of forward propagation on the DNN model, the inference time for large DNN models is still intolerable for time-sensitive applications in mobile devices. We propose to reduce the DNN …

The role of surface condition in athletic performance
During the last two decades, instability training devices have become a popular means in athletic training and rehabilitation of mimicking unstable surfaces during movements like vertical jumps. Of note, under unstable conditions, trunk muscles seem to have a stabilizing function during exercise to …

Growth response to resistance exercise : influence of exercise device
… 1.5 fold) to a similar degree on both exercise devices. There was no change in the expression of Atrogin-1, MuRF-1 or MRF4 following RE on either device. The only device mediated difference in the expression of the selected genes was observed in Atrogin-1 which was lower following RE on the FW …

Neurorehabilitation of the hand using the cybergrasp[TM] and mirror image
… those that engage in mirror therapy. Bilateral training, or simultaneous movement of both sides of the body, has also been studied as a treatment method to improve function after cerebral vascular accident. The development of robotic systems to assist movement of the human body has played a …

Adaptive and Part-Whole Training in the Acquisition of a Complex Perceptual-Motor Skill
… was an evaluation of two methods for the training of a complex perceptual-motor skill. One method was the part training method, where a subject practiced on essential subtasks before performing the whole task. The other method was adaptive training. In adaptive training one of the …

A Mixed Methodology Study of the Effects of Age, Touchscreens, New Technology, Automation, and Interactions on Pilot Performance
… and interface mentioned by all age groups. More training, using actual touchscreens or training devices exactly replicating them, and repetition were stated as ways to alleviate these issues. The amount of touch sensitivity and pressure that are needed to interact and accomplish tasks was another …

Design of a passive hydraulic simulator for abnormal muscle behavior replication
… evaluation by providing clinician practical training opportunities; however none of these training devices are commercially available due to technical and manufacturing limitations. For this reason, a novel, purely mechanical, hydraulic-based simulator design was proposed as an alternative …

Wearable robotics for rehabilitation
… In healthcare, the impact of robotic devices has not yet been established but there has been considerable discussion on their use as assistive devices and as products or systems that aid in rehabilitation of disabled people. I will technically investigate the current state-of-art …
