Impacts of home lighting on human health

Typical home lighting practice is mainly centred on visual aspects to enable safe movement between spaces, flexibility in multiuse spaces, a sense of aesthetics and energy efficiency. Whilst lighting impacts on the health of residents have not received similar consideration, this area is gaining increasing interest. This is even more important and actual in the context of the recent pandemic where people have been working or studying from home. A combination of bright daytime light and night-time darkness is essential for circadian entrainment and maintenance of a regular daily sleep–wake cycle, whereas exposure to light at night can negatively impact circadian rhythms and sleep patterns and ultimately lead to potential health problems. Additionally, lighting also has the potential to affect health through associated effects such as flicker, glare, optical hazards or electromagnetic fields. This article discusses the main areas of concern related to home lighting and outlines general recommendations to limit detrimental effects and contribute to good health.

Assessment of Tire Features for Modeling Vehicle Stability in Case of Vertical Road Excitation

Two trends could be observed in the evolution of road transport. First, with the traffic becoming increasingly intensive, the motor road infrastructure is developed; more advanced, greater quality, and more durable materials are used; and pavement laying and repair techniques are improved continuously. The continued growth in the number of vehicles on the road is accompanied by the ongoing improvement of the vehicle design with the view towards greater vehicle controllability as the key traffic safety factor. The change has covered a series of vehicle systems. The tire structure and materials used are subject to continuous improvements in order to provide the maximum possible grip with the road pavement. New solutions in the improvement of the suspension and driving systems are explored. Nonetheless, inevitable controversies have been encountered, primarily, in the efforts to combine riding comfort and vehicle controllability. Practice shows that these systems perform to a satisfactory degree only on good quality roads, as they have been designed specifically for the latter. This could be the cause of the more complicated car control and accidents on the lower-quality roads. Road ruts and local unevenness that impair car stability and traffic safety are not avoided even on the trunk roads. In this work, we investigated the conditions for directional stability, the influence of road and vehicle parameters on the directional stability of the vehicle, and developed recommendations for the road and vehicle control systems to combine to ensure traffic safety. We have developed a refined dynamic model of vehicle stability that evaluates the influence of tire tread and suspensions. The obtained results allow a more accurate assessment of the impact of the road roughness and vehicle suspension and body movements on vehicle stability and the development of recommendations for the safe movement down the road of known characteristics.

Manoeuvrability of vessels in inland waterways and safety of navigation

ABSTRACT A green and sustainable mode of transport, the inland waterway transport in India will see accelerated growth with the new Inland Vessels Act, 2021. This increased traffic growth in restricted waters will lead to economic, environmental, and safety challenges. Good manoeuvrability of inland vessels is critical to resolve these concerns. The world over, inefficient manoeuvring has resulted in several incidents which have affected the safety of navigation and maritime trade. Manoeuvrability of seagoing vessels must meet the minimum standards as per International Maritime Organization (IMO) Resolution MSC.137(76) and the MEPC1/Circ850/Rev.3 guidelines. In comparison, only a few countries, river commissions, and classification societies have specified criteria for navigation tests for inland vessels, and this does not include India. Manoeuvrability criteria and results of the tests are essential to facilitate the safe movement of vessels. This article discusses the results of full-scale manoeuvrability tests of inland vessels conducted by the author on India's national waterways and the Indo-Bangladesh Protocol route. It proposes manoeuvrability criteria for inland vessels plying in the inland waterways of India, including cross-regional protocol routes. The article also recommends measures to improve the safety of navigation in inland waters.

Squeaky wheels: Missing data, disability, and power in the smart city

Data about the accessibility of United States municipalities is infrastructure in the smart city. What is counted and how, reflects the sociotechnical imaginary (norms and values) of a time or place. In this paper we focus on features identified by people with disabilities as promoting or hindering safe pedestrian travel. We use a regionally stratified sample of 178 cities across the United States. The municipalities were scored on two factors: their open data practices (or lack thereof), and the degree to which they cataloged the environmental features that persons with disabilities deemed critical for safe movement through urban spaces. In contradiction to the dominating narrative of too much data and not enough analyses, we find that when it comes to data points that might be useful to persons with disabilities, data are lacking. This data gap has consequences both politically and materially—on one hand data could help enforce compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act, on the other they would allow for safe route planning. We find that reading these data formats and collection patterns from the perspective of critical disability studies—particularly those whose work disrupts notions of “normal” —helps answer questions about potential benefits and harms of data practices. This lens has the potential to promote analysis that is as disruptive to injustices as it is practical.

Обеспечение вертикального габарита самоходной машины со штанговым механизмом установки и фиксации концевой опоры для мобильной канатной дороги

Mobile ropeways for carrying out loading and unloading and transport and transfer operations in previously unsettled or inaccessible areas, formed with the help of terminal base stations connected by a single rope system on the basis of self-propelled wheeled or tracked chassis of increased carrying capacity and cross-country ability, are a promising type of lifting and transport equipment ensuring the prompt deployment of the necessary technological tools. The article deals with the layout of the mechanism for installing and fixing the end tower using a folding bar, consisting of two articulated links. A mathematical model has been developed that provides the required normative vertical dimension of a self-propelled base station of a mobile ropeway with the aim of its safe independent movement to the place of deployment of the ropeway along general roads. The analysis of the influence of standard dimensional requirements, design dimensions of the chassis carrying frame and the height of the end tower on the main design dimensions of the articulated folding rod in the transport position is carried out. Calculations have shown that the considered design makes it possible to provide the standard vertical dimension of a base station on a 6-axle self-propelled chassis with an end tower length of up to 18 m.

ON THE QUESTION OF BRAKING ARTICULATED BUSES

The safe movement of a car and a road train is largely determined by its braking properties. The nature of the movement of the road train is fundamentally different from the movement of a single car. The difference can be explained by the presence of additional forces arising in the articulation of the links of the vehicle, as well as forces and moments acting on its individual links and the movement of the vehicle as a whole. Their effect is especially noticeable when braking a road train, which may be accompanied by folding links and loss of stability of the vehicle. As a result of the study, the optimal values of the brake force distribution coefficients for a fully loaded articulated bus are obtained, which provide both high braking efficiency and the stability of the articulated bus (AВ) during braking. The coefficients are determined taking into account the design features of the brake mechanisms and their geometric dimensions, providing the required braking performance. For the selected values of the braking force distribution coefficients along the axes of the AВ and the coefficients that take into account the design features of the braking mechanisms and their geometric dimensions, the braking distance during braking by the main or working braking system and the spare one satisfy the requirements of regulatory documents. With the selected asynchronous response of the brake drives of the bus and trailer, the steady deceleration of the АВ is slightly less than the standard.

جريمة الاعتداء على سلامة النقل والمواصلات في قانون العقوبات العراقي - دراسة مقارنة

Transportation is the infrastructure of the national and global economy. It is imperative to ensure the safe movement of people and funds from one place to another. The penal law has affirmed in many penal provisions the guarantee of freedom of people’s movement and not preventing them from exercising the right to move. The reason we choose the subject of the research is due to the scarcity of research and criminal legal studies in this regard, as the issue is of practical importance due to the catastrophic effects resulting from it. The second topic is the pillars of the crime, and finally we discuss the punishment of this crime, and we stand at the transport violations stipulated in the Iraqi Penal Code

Neural networks based on the 1С:enterprise 8.3 platform in data analysis systems for self-driving cars

The development of self-driving cars in the modern world is accelerating every year, and it is obvious that the safe movement of such cars is impossible without special fault-tolerant software tools. With the improvement of technology, such software tools increasingly include elements of artificial intelligence. Currently, on the basis of flexible mechanisms of the 1C:Enterprise 8.3 platform, an application solution is being developed that allows to analyze the behavior of an self-driving car on a public road. Such software can be used in the educational activities of students in areas related to mathematical statistics, as well as to study mathematical methods that optimize the operation of the on-board computer of a driving self-driving car. Considering the growth of educational programs, which include the study of applied solutions and the development of such solutions on the 1C:Enterprise 8.3 platform, the use of the software in question in the educational process is available to students, useful and interesting for them. The presence of a large number of reports using the data layout system will allow to analyze the movement of self-driving cars in precisely those sections that are necessary for a student or researcher to conduct research activities.

EU COVID-19 Certificates: A Critical Analysis

On 17 March 2021, the European Commission put forward its Proposal for a Regulation on Digital Green Certificates, which would facilitate European Union (EU) cross-border movement during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Regulation on the EU Digital COVID Certificate was adopted on 14 June 2021 and it will start to apply from 1 July 2021. This article examines the main declared goals of the new Regulation – the first being that Digital COVID Certificates facilitate safe cross-border movement, the second being that they preclude more restrictive national measures, the third being that they prevent discrimination and the fourth being that they coordinate Member States’ actions. In so doing, it highlights the main benefits and weaknesses of the Regulation, but it also goes beyond the Regulation by tackling broader questions of EU law that will be of relevance even once the pandemic is over. In this respect, the paper highlights the importance of science in assessing the proportionality of pandemic-related measures and of choosing the least restrictive and the most individualised options when restricting free movement due to public health reasons. It also identifies the effects EU certificates will have on Member States’ regulation of national COVID-19 certificates, notably those designed for other purposes than cross-border travel, and it shows that there is a thin line between the EU’s and national competences in this area.

Помехоустойчивость систем контроля и управления доступом в здания при воздействии электромагнитных помех по сети электропитания.

Access monitoring and control system are a set of software and hardware for restricting and registering the entrance to a given territory through special passages. In addition, when used in modern sports facilities, these systems must have a high capacity. This is necessary for the safe movement and timely evacuation of a large number of visitors. Therefore, the reliable operation of access monitoring and control systems is the most important technical challenge. Electromagnetic interference can disrupt the functions of the control system. One of the reasons for system malfunctions can be electromagnetic interference on the power supply network. The article analyzes the sources of electromagnetic interference in the power supply network. Experimental studies of the functioning of the control system under the influence of nanosecond noise on the power supply network have been carried out. A simulation model is proposed and the results of modeling electromagnetic interference in the control system when exposed to electromagnetic pulses through the power supply network are presented. The simulation results are in good agreement with the experimental data.

On August 13, 2021, the Taliban completed their sweep of Afghanistan as they took the capital city of Kabul just weeks before the US and coali- tion forces were set to officially end their two-decades-long war. The deteriorating humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan is exacerbating pre- existing challenges, including poverty, hunger, and escalating violence in the country. In recent weeks, reports of war crimes, including summary executions, public beatings, and flogging of women, sexual [End Page v] violence, and forced marriage, have surfaced in the areas captured by the Taliban. Endangered Scholars Worldwide is gravely concerned about the well-being of students, scholars, and human rights activists in Afghanistan. While we call for the Taliban to restrain from violence and repression, we believe that the international community must prioritize helping the people of Afghanistan under the Taliban's reign. During the regime's brutal previous rule, schools were closed, girls were forbidden from classrooms and could only leave their homes with a male patron—girls as young as nine were forced into marriages. Afghan students and scholars, who have already lived their entire lives through conflict and war, have a right to live free from violence, go to school, and engage in scholarly work safe from harm. ESW urges the global community to make all efforts to respect obligations under international human rights and international humanitarian law, which includes ensuring free and unhindered humanitarian access to people in need of assistance and protection and open borders for the safe movement of people. Continuing cases: On March 16, 2021, gunmen ambushed a bus trans- porting university students, staff, and professors in Baghlan province, killing the driver and a student. Six university lecturers were also injured. The attack took place during the morning rush hour on the outskirts of the provincial capital city of Pul-e-Khumri while the bus was traveling toward Baghlan university. In recent years, students, professors, and academics have been increasingly targeted in violent attacks—an unacceptable trend that damages the future of society at large. Endangered Scholars Worldwide condemns these heinous crimes in the strongest possible terms and stands in solidarity with the victims' families.

Evaluating Actual Speed Against the Permissible Speed of Vehicles During Free-Flow Traffic Conditions

It is commonly seen that vehicles were moving above the speed limit on many expressways especially during free-flow traffic conditions. To ensure safe movement of vehicles, it is important to compare the actual speed of the vehicles against the posted speed limit. The main purpose of this paper is to evaluate and compare the actual speed of the vehicles with the allowable speed limit during free-flow traffic conditions. Duta-Ulu Kelang Expressway (DUKE) was selected as a case study. Major data were collected by using road geometrical survey and spot speed survey method. Around 400 vehicles’ speed were measured at a selected road stretch for 4 hours during off-peak period. Systematic sampling technique was used to select samples from the targeted vehicle population. Descriptive statistical methods were used to analyze the speed trends and speed characteristics of the sampled vehicles. T-test was applied to test the actual speed between each selected hour and to test the differences between actual average vehicle speed and allowable speed limit for statistical significance. The results show most of the vehicles (66%), on average, were moving at a speed higher than the allowable speed limit of 90 km/h. The differences between actual average speed and allowable speed limit were tested for statistical significance which as a result indicates a clear difference between actual average speed and allowable speed limit. Few recommendations are drawn to discourage excessive speed in order to make the roads free from accidents and to improve the safety of the road users.

The Safe Standing movement in English football: Mobilizing across the political and discursive fields of contention

Twenty-eight years after the Taylor Report into the Hillsborough disaster recommended that all football grounds in the top two divisions in England and Wales should become all-seated, the UK government, in 2018, announced a review into the safety of modern standing areas and whether developments in stadium safety might justify changing the all-seating legislation to permit Safe Standing. These events are the outcome of a 30-year social movement in which a critical mass of supporters, through the relational networks they formed, have built collective action. Drawing upon both archival and fieldwork research to analyse the longer-term impact which all-seated stadia have had on football supporters’ consumption of the game in England, the article uses relational sociology to tell the story of the movement, and studies the working tactics and structure of a small network mobilizing across the political and discursive fields of contention post-Hillsborough. It argues that whilst now a more effective movement with technological and political capital, Safe Standing continues to raise important questions around the historical views on football fans as somehow deviant and reinforces the long-term impact and legacy of Hillsborough on supporters’ modern cultural consumption of the game by moving within the parameters of the all-seating legislation.

Optimal operation of a rail lubrication device with respect to noise reduction and wheel/rail friction coefficient

During research work, three series of studies were performed to support the importance of using rail lubrication at tramway tracks in Budapest. The first task was to determine the noise reduction efficiency of automated rail lubrication: noise measurements were performed in case of lubricated rails with corrugations, non-lubricated rails with corrugations, grinded rails as well as grinded and lubricated rails. Once the conformity was determined, an additional task was to find the right lubricant. After the noise and braking effect tests of various lubricants, it was a legitimate need to determine the optimum lubricant application because the setting of the devices is based only on the experience of the Operator. Finally, the noise mitigation effect and the friction coefficient affecting the wheel/rail contact with different lubricant application settings were investigated simultaneously. It is important that the lubricant be applied in appropriate amount such that even the safe movement of the trams is guaranteed, but at the same time the noise reduction is satisfactory too. Based on the results, the authors make recommendations for the application of the rail lubrication devices.

INTELLIGENT HIGH-SPEED PASSENGER ELECTRIC TRANSPORT (ISET-150) FOR LARGE CITIES OF UKRAINE

The high-speed passenger transport development is one of the most important tasks for the successful functioning of any large or largest city transport system. The modern society of the biggest cities-megalopolises needs a constant increase in the volume of transport communications. This requires an increase in costs to improve the infrastructure of the transport network, turning it into a flexible, highly manageable logistics system. However, this significantly increases the risk of investment, if one does not take into account the patterns of development of the transport network, the distribution of load on its sections. Ignoring these patterns leads to frequent traffic jams (transport congestion), overloading, an increase in the accident rate, and a complete dependence on the cost of oil products. Lack of developed infrastructure for road transport and low-speed public transport significantly hampers economic development. Therefore, a radical increase in public investment in stimulating the urban economy would necessarily include modernization of transport infrastructure. All infrastructural activities should be carried out on the territory of the country – thereby creating new jobs and strengthening the industry. Well-chosen infrastructure projects that provide conditions for economic development for decades and for many generations represent the best use of public debt capital.
 For creation in large cities of Ukraine, especially with difficult climatic and geological conditions, with difficult climatic and geological conditions, as well as with a poorly developed highway system, a new overhead electric high-speed passenger, economy and environmentally friendly, transport, with cabins, is proposed.
 To organize the safe movement of controlled crews with passengers, the theory of saturated traffic flows was used, which describes the movement of crews in a stream as a continuous change in the states of acceleration, uniform movement and braking, i.e. synchronized three phases «start-go-stop» in one control algorithm.

Homeward bound: canopy cover and species identity influence non-breeding season homing success and speed in forest birds

BackgroundEfficient and safe movement is fundamental for wild birds to thrive in their environments. For arboreal forest animals, especially birds, canopy cover has a large impact on birds’ daily movements and is a crucial component of conservation strategies seeking to retain avian population in disturbed or urban habitats.MethodsWe translocated woodland bird species utilizing different forest strata during two non-breeding seasons in Gainesville, FL, USA. We used linear model and generalized linear model to examine the effects of canopy cover and species identity on homing success and speed.ResultsAmong our study species of Tufted Titmouse (Baeolophus bicolor), Carolina Chickadee (Poecile carolinensis), and Northern Cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis), we found that Carolina Chickadees and Tufted Titmice were more likely to return than Northern Cardinals. Among birds that successfully returned, homing speed is significantly affected by forest canopy cover and species identity (titmice had higher homing speed than cardinals). Birds return much faster in landscape with higher canopy cover.ConclusionsThis study presented evidence of species identity’s effect on homing success and speed in common feeder bird species in Southeast US and provided further evidence that bird movements in the suburban land cover are constrained by low canopy cover.

Improvement of the architecture of a universal robotic platform designed for swarm structures basis of small unmanned aerial vehicles

The model of the landing system for swarms of small unmanned aerial vehicles in fact consists of a queuing system with a space-time holding zone serving as a gathering device for small unmanned aerial vehicles, where the holding elements are represented by the sequentially connected buffer zone for aerial vehicle landing and the landing line itself with a robotic landing platform. The passage of aerial vehicles from the holding area to the landing zone is controlled by the landing line access protocol. Safe movement of small unmanned aerial vehicles in the holding and landing zones is ensured by the information-measurement and management landing system of a universal robotic platform. The article suggests using the “landing system capacity” as one of the indicators of system performance efficiency.

Age Is More Predictive of Safe Movement Patterns Than Are Physical Activity or Sports Specialization: A Prospective Motion Analysis Study of Young Athletes

Background: Movement quality and neuromuscular balance are noted predictors of acute injury. Early sports specialization and extremely high activity levels have been linked to elevated risk of injury. Purpose: To investigate for any relationships among quality of physical movement, quantity of physical activity, and degree of sports specialization in a healthy cohort of active children and adolescents. Study Design: Cross-sectional study with prospectively collected data. Methods: Healthy children between the ages of 10 and 18 years were recruited and completed the Hospital for Special Surgery Pediatric Functional Activity Brief Scale to assess quantity of physical activity and the Jayanthi scale to assess degree of sports specialization (high, score of 2 or 3; low, score of 0 or 1). Movement quality was assessed using motion analysis sensors during 5 repetitions of 4 different jumping and squatting motions, with a maximum score of 100 per participant. Independent-samples t tests were used to compare participants with high versus low specialization on physical activity and movement quality. A Spearman correlation was used to determine the relationship between quantity of physical activity and movement quality, and linear regression was used to assess for the effect of participant age on relevant covariables. Results: Final analyses included 147 participants (72% male) with a mean ± SD age of 13.4 ± 2.2 years. Participants who were highly specialized displayed better movement quality than did participants with low sports specialization (27.6 ± 14.0 vs 19.8 ± 10.1; P < .01). Participants who were highly specialized had significantly higher activity levels (24.6 ± 5.9 vs 18.1 ± 6.9; P < .001). Movement quality was moderately correlated with physical activity level (r = 0.335; P < .001). Physical activity; hours of organized sports activity; hours of free, unorganized physical activity; and specialization level were not significant predictors of movement quality when controlling for age. Age alone predicted 24.2% of the variance in the overall movement quality score (R2 = 0.242; B = 3.0; P < .001). Conclusion: This study found that sports specialization and physical activity levels were not associated with movement quality when controlling for age, which was the most important variable predicting athletic movement quality. Although all participants displayed movement patterns that were associated with high risk for injury, overall movement quality improved with advancing chronological age. Clinical Relevance: All young athletes should ensure that neuromuscular training accompanies sport-specific training to reduce risk of injury.

A concept mobility device with multi-positional configurations and child-kind restraint for safe perioperative transfer and induction of anaesthesia in children with autistic spectrum disorder \u2013 a cross sectional study

BackgroundTransfer into the operating room, onto the operating table and mask induction of anaesthesia are major challenges faced by children with Autistic Spectrum Disorder (ASD). In a pilot study, parents observed that perioperative transfer becomes unsafe and difficult when children with ASD becomes uncooperative.MethodA CHILD-KIND CONCEPT mobility system comprising of multi-positioning seat configurations and restraining module was developed with inputs from multi-disciplinary healthcare professionals and parents with children with ASD. To appeal to children and motivate child-machine interaction, the seat configurations and restraining module are designed to take the form of child-friendly, non-threatening, fun and familiar items. The sitting configuration, sitting to supine transformation, the restraint modules resemble racing-car seat, reclining motion of a home massage chair, safety restraints found in airplanes and amusement rides respectively. Healthcare professionals (HCPs) involved in the perioperative patient care, parents of ASD children and children (neurotypical and ASD) experience the use of the system in a non-clinical environment and participated in a survey study. The acceptance of its functionality (HCPs, parents) for perioperative transfer and induction of anaesthesia, rating of the user experience and likes and dislikes of (parents and children) were obtained.ResultsThirty-two HCPs, 30 parents and 23 children participated. Majority of parents and HCPs opined the use of the system enables improvement in the management of perioperative movement (90.0% parents, 100% HCPs), safe perioperative movement (86.7% parents, 96.9% HCPs) and promotes ease of anaesthesia induction (76.7% parents, 90.6% HCPs) for uncooperative combative ASD children. Overall, 93.8% HCPs and 86.7% parents would recommend its frequent use in their own practice and their ASD children respectively. Attractiveness and multi-functionality are attributes endorsed by parents and children. Children endorse its use for induction of anaesthesia (73.9%), dental chair (82.6%), intra-hospital transfer (95.7%).ConclusionA child-kind mobility device that integrates appeal with functionality of restraint and multi-positional transformation has a potential to promote safe perioperative movement and ease of induction of anaesthesia in anxious uncooperative ASD children.
