Turbulence‐Intensity Effects on the Aerodynamic Performance of an H‐Type Darrieus Wind Turbine: A URANS Parametric Study

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.
Turbulence intensity from 1% to 25% was parametrically tested on a three‐bladed H‐type Darrieus rotor across five tip speed ratios (TSRs) using two‐dimensional URANS. The optimal TSR proved the most efficient and most robust operating point simultaneously, with Cp losses capped at 5.8% even at TI = 25%. ABSTRACT The effect of inlet turbulence intensity

Spatial Patterns, Driving Forces, and Potential Grain Losses of Non‐Grain Production of Farmland in Central Yunnan Urban Agglomeration, China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The expansion of farmland non‐grain production (NGP) poses a potential threat to food security and agricultural land protection, particularly in mountainous urban agglomerations. However, the utilization patterns, driving mechanisms, and associated production‐loss effects of farmland NGP in this specific regional context remain insufficiently ...

Friction‐Aware Force‐Realizable Safety Control for Four‐Wheel Independently Steered and Driven Mobile Robots

International Journal of Robust and Nonlinear Control, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Safety‐critical control remains a major challenge for four‐wheel independently steered and driven (4ISD) mobile robots, where high‐accuracy path tracking and obstacle avoidance must be achieved under over‐actuated steering–driving coordination, tire–ground friction limits, and wheel‐torque constraints.
