Multimodal Locomotion of Soft Robots
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.This review comprehensively surveys recent advances in multimodal locomotion within soft robotics. Typical locomotion modes are summarized and categorized. Furthermore, the underlying mechanisms enabling multimodal locomotion are discussed and classified into three primary categories: active control‐based, reconfiguration‐based, and environment ...

Simulation Model to Calculate Bird-Aircraft Collisions and Near Misses in the Airport Vicinity
Aerospace, 2018 Annually, thousands of birds collide with aircraft. The impact usually has lethal consequences for the bird, the involved aircraft can experience severe damage. The highest bird strike risk occurs at low altitudes.

Risk Considerations of Bird Strikes to Space Launch Vehicles [PDF]
Within seconds after liftoff of the Space Shuttle during mission STS-114, a turkey vulture impacted the vehicle's external tank. The contact caused no apparent damage to the Shuttle, but the incident led NASA to consider the potential consequences of ...

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Feature from recent image foundation models (DINOv2) are useful for vision tasks (segmentation, object localization) with little or no human input. Once upsampled, they can be used for weakly supervised micrograph segmentation, achieving strong results when compared to classical features (blurs, edge detection) across a range of material systems.

Bird control problem and bird strike analysis of Czech and Slovak airports [PDF]
Transport Problems, 2013 This article deals with the problem of bird control at airports in both the Czech and Slovak Republic. The result of so-called bird strike (aircraft/bird collision) can cause serious damage to the aircraft and even lead to the crash.

Intermittent Gliding in the Hunting Flight of the Kestrel, Falco tinnunculus L. [PDF]
, 1983 The hunting flight of the kestrel (Falco tinnunculus) consists of short bouts of flight at wind speed against the wind with the eyes in a fixed position relative to the ground, and of short flights from one such position to the next.
