Sleep represents an emergent set of many physiologic processes under primarily
neurobiological regulation that impact many physiologic systems. As such, many advances …

Athletes are increasingly required to travel domestically and internationally, often resulting in
travel fatigue and jet lag. Despite considerable agreement that travel fatigue and jet lag can …

Since 12-h shifts were first implemented, the question has been asked–are 'twelves' better
than 'eights'? People trying to answer this question invariably refer to the limited literature at …

Sleepiness and fatigue are important risk factors in the transport sector and bio-
mathematical sleepiness, sleep and fatigue modeling is increasingly becoming a valuable …

Most of the research related to human fatigue in the aviation industry has focussed on long-
haul pilots, but short-haul pilots also experience elevated levels of fatigue. The aim of this …

Traditionally, working time arrangements to limit fatigue-related risk have taken a
prescriptive approach, which sets maximum shift durations in order to prevent excessive …

This study provides a practical example of fatigue risk management in aviation. The sleep
and sleepiness of 44 pilots (11 trips× 4 pilot crew) working an ultra long-range (ULR; flight …

Abstract Study Objectives The study aimed to, for the first time,(1) compare sleep, circadian
phase, and alertness of intensive care unit (ICU) nurses working rotating shifts with those …

Introduction: Biomathematical models of fatigue (BMMF) predict fatigue during a work-rest
schedule on the basis of sleep-wake histories. In the absence of actual sleep-wake histories …
