Evaluating machine learning models for multi‐species wildlife detection and identification on remote sensed nadir imagery in South African savanna

Wildlife Biology, EarlyView.
This research paper investigates the efficacy of leading machine learning (ML) models for detecting and identifying ungulate species in African savanna using nadir imagery from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Traditional aerial counting methods, while widely used, suffer from significant limitations in accuracy and precision, in part due to human ...

Effect of canard-chordwise blowing on the aerodynamic characteristics of blended wing body aircraft

Xibei Gongye Daxue Xuebao
To enhance the effect of the canard increasing lift and pitching moment coefficient of the blended-wing-body(BWB) aircraft, numerical simulation is adopted to analyze the effect of the canard-chordwise blowing on the low-speed aerodynamic characteristics

Games and gamification projects in the Australian public sector

Australian Journal of Public Administration, EarlyView.
Abstract This article surveys the arrival of gameful government into Australian public sector practice. Gameful government is a shorthand, descriptive term denoting the interpenetration of (video)games, and design elements and thinking from them, into public sector work.

Aerodynamic investigation by experimental and computational simulation of a flying wing unmanned aerial vehicle for cargo delivery and surveillance missions

Aviation
Baseline-IX is a tailless aircraft design with compound wing attached to a short body, a transition between a straight, swept flying wing design and a blended wing-body.

Challenging Business Schools Through Subversive Performativity: The Potential of Art‐based Pedagogies

British Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Business schools are often criticized for reproducing growth‐oriented norms, but alternative pedagogies remain difficult to normalize. Drawing on Butler's theory of subversive performativity, this study examines how art‐based pedagogy enables academics to challenge growth logics in business schools by transforming their identities over time ...

Aerodynamic Analysis of a Blended Wing Body UAV

, 2022
The focus of this thesis is to analyse the flight characteristics of the blended wingbody (BWB) unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) Green Raven currently being developed by students at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Stockholm,Sweden. The purpose of evaluating a BWB aircraft is due to its potential increasein fuel efficiency and payload compared ...

Conceptual design of a Blended Wing Body aircraft

, 2022
[EN] This Final Degree Project proposal consists in the conceptual design of a Blended Wing Body (BWB) aircraft. This aircraft configuration aims to increase aerodynamic performance by removing the tail and incorporating an airfoil-shaped fuselage, which is then smoothly merged with some high aspect ratio outer wings similar to those present in ...

Conceptualizing moral migration: how disillusionment and the transnational right motivate migration to Russia Conceptualiser la migration morale : comment les désillusions et la droite transnationale motivent l’émigration vers la Russie

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
Russia is consistently a top migration destination. While most migrate to Russia from other post‐Soviet countries, a small but highly visible group of the Russian‐speaking diaspora has returned from Europe and North America. Lauded in Russian media as ‘ideological migrants’, their narratives at first glance echo those of the state as they claim to flee

Research on stability for blended-wing-body aircraft

World Journal of Advanced Research and Reviews
The primary goal of this research is to research the stability properties of a blended-wing-body (BWB) aircraft. This section examines the assessment and selection of aircraft design parameters, planform design, and reflex wing and conducts a complete aircraft stability analysis. A BWB aircraft conceptual design has been completed and the design.
