Vector Field‐Based Collision‐Free Navigation in Tunnel‐Like Environments

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tunnel‐like environments, renowned for their vast scale, confined spaces, and limited visibility, present significant challenges for autonomous robot navigation. This study addresses the critical issue of guiding robots through such environments while ensuring collision‐free navigation and maintaining a specified safety margin from both tunnel

Women's Empowerment, Governance, and the Economics of Clean Cooking Transitions in Africa

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past few decades, the global economy, particularly in developing nations, has persistently grappled with rising dependence on conventional energy resources, thus rendering the realization of Sustainable Development Goals 5 and 7 (SDGs 5 and 7) an elusive aspiration for the international community.

Evaluating the Role of Social Capital for the Design of Sustainable River Governance Strategies: The Case of Tagus River

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the role of social capital in designing and implementing more effective governance strategies to improve the state of the Tagus River's significantly deteriorated middle reach (Spain). We employed social network analysis (SNA) to evaluate the bonding, bridging and linking social capital and the quality of stakeholder ...

Charge Transport Across Single Molecules at the Metal–Superconductor Interface

Small, EarlyView.
The evolution of Andreev reflection in single‐molecule junctions is probed with the decreasing distance between a normal‐metal tip and a conventional superconductor. Andreev reflection becomes most effective when a molecular orbital straddles the Fermi level.

Navigating Gravity: Competing Effects Result in Opposing Taxis for Different Janus Swimmers

Small, EarlyView.
The combined effects of gravity and wall‐induced hydrodynamics on the motion of Janus colloids are investigated. Platinum‐ and copper‐coated silica microswimmers show distinct gravitactic alignment near surfaces due to different hydrodynamic couplings. This distinct gravitactic behavior enables separation of initially mixed active particles.
