Journal ArticleDOI
Evolution of high-speed operational amplifier architectures
TL;DR: The evolution of operational amplifier designs since vacuum tube days is traced to give a perspective of the large number of circuit variations used over time and the ability to use many of these circuit design options as the basis of new amplifiers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Understanding industrial safety: Comparing Fault tree, Bayesian network, and FRAM approaches
TL;DR: In this article, three approaches to safety are examined: fault trees (FT), Bayesian networks (BN), and the Functional Resonance Analysis Method (FRAM), and a case study of a propane feed control system is used to apply these methods.
Journal ArticleDOI
Review of risk-based design for ice-class ships
TL;DR: In this article, a review of the knowledge necessary for risk-based ship design for Arctic conditions is presented, with specific focus on the strength of evidence of the different fields of knowledge needed to perform RBSD in ice conditions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Care co-ordination improves quality-of-care at South Auckland Health.
P Gow,S Berg,Doug Smith,D Ross +3 more
TL;DR: There was no difference in Average Length of Stay between the control and study groups, but three of the patients in the control group may have had their preventable readmissions within 10 days avoided if their care had been co-ordinated during their initial admission.
Journal ArticleDOI
