Multimodal Locomotion: Next Generation Aerial–Terrestrial Mobile Robotics

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView., 2023
Aerial–terrestrial robots can achieve efficient energy consumption and robust environmental interaction by adding morphological features, adapting forms for locomotion transitions, and integrating multiple platforms. This next generation of mobile robots advances real‐world robotic deployment for operations with complex tasks and tackle environments ...

Schneefernerhaus as a mountain research station for clouds and turbulence [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2015
Cloud measurements are usually carried out with airborne campaigns, which are expensive and are limited by temporal duration and weather conditions. Ground-based measurements at high-altitude research stations therefore play a complementary role in cloud

A Robust Photogrammetric Processing Method of Low-Altitude UAV Images

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2015
Low-altitude Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) images which include distortion, illumination variance, and large rotation angles are facing multiple challenges of image orientation and image processing. In this paper, a robust and convenient photogrammetric

The anthropogenic contribution to atmospheric black carbon concentrations in southern Africa: a WRF-Chem modeling study [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2015
South Africa has one of the largest industrialized economies in Africa. Emissions of air pollutants are particularly high in the Johannesburg-Pretoria metropolitan area, the Mpumalanga Highveld and the Vaal Triangle, resulting in local air pollution ...

Impacts of Vegetation and Topography on Land Surface Temperature Variability over the Semi-Arid Mountain Cities of Saudi Arabia

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2020
Land surface temperature (LST) can fully reflect the water–heat exchange cycle of the earth surface that is important for the study of environmental change.

A Consideration of Breast Imagery in Art as Depicted through Western Painting

open access: yesArchives of Plastic Surgery, 2015
The aim of this study is to consider breast imagery in art as depicted through western painting. Twenty western art paintings were collated. Most of the sample paintings were created from the mid-nineteenth century to the late twentieth century and some ...

Spatial distribution of invasive large fever berry trees (Croton megalobotrys) in Sengwa Wildlife Research Area: Gokwe, Zimbabwe

open access: yesEnvironmental Systems Research, 2023
Background The invasion of rangelands by invasive plant species is a major threat to biodiversity in most parts of Zimbabwe posing not only an ecological challenge but a growing management and eradication challenge as well.

Shortest closed billiard orbits on convex tables [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Given a planar compact convex billiard table $T$, we give an algorithm to find the shortest generalised closed billiard orbits on $T$. (Generalised billiard orbits are usual billiard orbits if $T$ has smooth boundary.) This algorithm is finite if $T$ is ...

Altitude, Orthocenter of a Triangle and Triangulation [PDF]

open access: yesFormalized Mathematics, 2016
Summary We introduce the altitudes of a triangle (the cevians perpendicular to the opposite sides). Using the generalized Ceva’s Theorem, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the orthocenter of a triangle [7]. Finally, we formalize in Mizar [1] some formulas [2] to calculate distance using triangulation.

Altitudes of a Tetrahedron and Traceless Quadratic Forms [PDF]

open access: yesAmer. Math. Monthly 110 (2003), 679-693, 2013
It is well known that the three altitudes of a triangle are concurrent at the so-called orthocenter of the triangle. So one might expect that the altitudes of a tetrahedron also meet at a point. However, it was already pointed out in 1827 by the Swiss geometer Jakob Steiner (1796--1863) that the altitudes of a general tetrahedron are mutually skew, for
