Human sleep and circadian rhythms: a simple model based on two coupled oscillators

SH Strogatz - Journal of mathematical biology, 1987 - Springer
We propose a model of the human circadian system. The sleep-wake and body temperature
rhythms are assumed to be driven by a pair of coupled nonlinear oscillators described by …

Using a circadian rhythms model to evaluate shift schedules

M Kostreva, E McNelis, E Clemens - Ergonomics, 2002 - Taylor & Francis
As long as the need for shiftwork exists, so will the demand for an optimal scheduling
strategy that balances the needs of both industry and the shiftworker. One aim is for …

M Roncagliolo, EA Vivaldi - Brain research bulletin, 1991 - Elsevier
A microcomputer-based system is described that detects, counts and stores cortical delta
and sigma waves, hippocampal theta waves and electromyographic activities in the rat by …
