Automatic assembly design project 1968/9: report of technical survey committee
An Industrial survey has been carried out to
determine the desired features of an automatic
as machine.
A questionnaire was circulated to industry and
the results of the 38% response obtained were
analysed and plotted. From these, conclusions
were drawn as to the industrial requirements of
an assembly machine
Clinical Diagnosis of Placenta Accreta and Clinicopathological Outcomes
Objective To investigate the association between the intraoperative diagnosis of placenta accreta at the time of cesarean hysterectomy and pathological diagnosis.
Study Design This is a retrospective cohort study of all patients undergoing cesarean hysterectomy for suspected placenta accreta from 2000 to 2016 at Barnes-Jewish Hospital. The primary outcome was the presence of invasive placentation on the pathology report. We estimated predictive characteristics of clinical diagnosis of placenta accreta using pathological diagnosis as the correct diagnosis.
Results There were 50 cesarean hysterectomies performed for suspected abnormal placentation from 2000 to 2016. Of these, 34 (68%) had a diagnosis of accreta preoperatively and 16 (32%) were diagnosed intraoperatively at the time of cesarean delivery. Two patients had no pathological evidence of invasion, corresponding to a false-positive rate of 4% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.5%, 13.8%) and a positive predictive value of 96% (95% CI: 86.3%, 99.5%). There were no differences in complications among patients diagnosed intraoperatively compared with those diagnosed preoperatively.
Conclusion Most patients undergoing cesarean hysterectomy for placenta accreta do have this diagnosis confirmed on pathology. However, since the diagnosis of placenta accreta was made intraoperatively in nearly a third of cesarean hysterectomies, intraoperative vigilance is required as the need for cesarean hysterectomy may not be anticipated preoperatively
Study of aircraft in intraurban transportation systems, volume 1
An analysis of an effective short range, high density computer transportation system for intraurban systems is presented. The seven county Detroit, Michigan, metropolitan area, was chosen as the scenario for the analysis. The study consisted of an analysis and forecast of the Detroit market through 1985, a parametric analysis of appropriate short haul aircraft concepts and associated ground systems, and a preliminary overall economic analysis of a simplified total system designed to evaluate the candidate vehicles and select the most promising VTOL and STOL aircraft. Data are also included on the impact of advanced technology on the system, the sensitivity of mission performance to changes in aircraft characteristics and system operations, and identification of key problem areas that may be improved by additional research. The approach, logic, and computer models used are adaptable to other intraurban or interurban areas

Spatial-Distance Cues Influence Economic Decision-Making in a Social Context
Social distance (i.e., the degree of closeness to another person) affects the
way humans perceive and respond to fairness during financial negotiations.
Feeling close to someone enhances the acceptance of monetary offers. Here, we
explored whether this effect also extends to the spatial domain. Specifically,
using an iterated version of the Ultimatum Game in a within-subject design, we
investigated whether different visual spatial distance-cues result in
different rates of acceptance of otherwise identical monetary offers. Study 1
found that participants accepted significantly more offers when they were cued
with spatial closeness than when they were cued with spatial distance. Study 2
replicated this effect using identical procedures but different spatial-
distance cues in an independent sample. Importantly, our results could not be
explained by feelings of social closeness. Our results demonstrate that mere
perceptions of spatial closeness produce analogous–but independent–effects to
those of social closeness
