Tecniche GPS/INS per l'anilisi dinamica di un ciclomotore

Nel seguente elaborato si espone l’utilizzo del sistema GPS/INS per la valutazione del moto di un ciclomotore. Tale sistema è composto da sensori GPS ( Global Navigation System ) per la misurazione della posizione, e da sensori INS ( Inertial Navigation System) per la misurazione dell’accelerazione e delle velocità angolari rispetto a tre assi coordinati. Chiaramente le misure di accelerazioni e di velocità angolari da parte dei sensori, presentano dei minimi errori, che però si ripercuotono sul posizionamento finale. Per limitare questo fenomeno e rendere la misura di velocità e posizione utilizzabile, un filtro di Kalman viene impiegato per correggere il risultato dell'integrazione usando le misurazioni del GPS. Il connubio tra il sistema INS e il sistema GPS è molto efficacie anche quando si ha una assenza di ricezione satellitare o perdita parziale dei satelliti (cycle slip). Infine è stato utilizzato uno smartphone sfruttando i sensori in esso presenti : accelerometri, giroscopi, GPS, per analizzare la dinamica di un ciclomotore, concentrandosi sull’assetto in particolar modo l’angolo di rollio. Tale prova è stata affrontata non tanto per validare il sistema GPS/INS, ma per provare una soluzione comoda e di basso costo per analizzare il moto di un ciclomotore.

Database of GPS data collected by surveys on seismic and volcanic areas of Sicily (Italy) from 1994 to 2013

This is a 20-year long database of GPS data collected by geodetic surveys carried out over the seismically and volcanically active eastern Sicily, for a total of more than 6300 measurements. Data have been convertedi nto the international ASCII compressed RINEX standard in order to be imported and processed by any GPS analysis software. Database is provided with an explorer software for navigating into the dataset by spatial (GIS) and temporal queries.

A printed hemispherical helical antenna for GPS receivers

A self-matched printed hemispherical helical antenna for potential use in global positioning system receivers is introduced. Unlike wired hemispherical helical antennas, its printed form renders it a much more stable and endurable structure and also easier for fabrication. The optimized antenna shows an impedance bandwidth of 6%, a 3-dB axial ratio bandwidth of 6%-7%, a return loss greater than 20 dB, and a gain of about 9 dB at the center frequency. The patterns of the antenna show a larger mainlobe in the upper half space with relatively small backlobes. Both theoretical and experimental results will be presented.

Predictors of an antibiotic prescription by GPs for respiratory tract infections: a pilot

Background. Antibiotics are over-prescribed for respiratory tract infections in Australia. Objectives. The aim of this study was to describe the clinical predictors of GPs' prescribing of antibiotics. Methods. We used Clinical Judgment Analysis to study the responses of GPs to hypothetical paper-based vignettes of a 20-year-old with a respiratory tract infection. The nature of four symptoms and signs (colour of nasal mucous discharge; soreness of the throat; presence of fever; and whether any cough was productive of sputum) was varied and their effect on prescribing measured using logistic regression. Results. Twenty GPs participated. The nature of each symptom and sign significantly predicted prescribing of an antibiotic. Cough productive of yellow sputum; presence of sore throat; fever; and coloured nasal mucus increased the probability of an antibiotic being prescribed. Conclusions. GPs are influenced by clinical signs and symptoms to use antibiotics for respiratory infections for which there is poor evidence of efficacy from the literature.
