Enhanced Nuclear Engineering Simulators

Engineering simulation is a sophisticated multi-purpose technology allowing the users of simulators to run a variety of engineering activities due to the possibility of modifying the simulated plant architecture and components, to adjust parameters, to test alternative solutions. Engineering Simulators (ES) have been built and used worldwide for a variety of purposes: - Development and refinement of the plant design or plant modifications - Safety analyses focused on the overall system behaviour - Verification and Validation (V&V) of systems and components - Development of Operational and Emergency Procedures - Pre-Training of operators and supervisors - High level education and Communication activities - Human Factor Engineering Analysis - Adaptive Control System training Engineering Simulators also play a role in developing and maintaining key nuclear skills, as knowledge repositories and tools for training at various levels of expertise

Les compléments neurophysiologiques du diagnostic

Neurophysiological complements of autism diagnosis Research presented show relationships between behavioral and cognitive disorders and underlying cerebral functional abnormalities, on the basis of non invasive electrophysiological investigations (electroencephalography, cortical evoked potentials). Three types of disturbances are studied: sleep problems, intolerance to change and atypical visual processing of human faces. The complementarity of clinical and neurophysiological approaches is crucial at the levels of functional diagnosis, therapeutic and educative interventions

The attachment theory was proposed and elaborated by John Bowlby. Over the last ten years the attachment theory has attracted considerable interest in the field of mental health as it emphasizes how relationships that are established in the earliest stages of development have an impact on man in an indefinable and lifelong manner

THE DYNAMIC MATURATIVE MODEL FOR ATTACHMENT

Crittenden proposes new protocols of the Strange Situation (SS) and the Adult Attachment Interview (AAI) based on a coding and classification system derived from the model proposed by Ainsworth, but modified and enriched with that of Main, Goldwyn and Hesse.
