Mechanism Analysis and Optimal Design of Return Impact of a Certain Aircraft Canopy Actuator
During the closure of a specific aircraft canopy, oil leakage occurs from the pressure tank’s overflow port in the gas–liquid control system. This issue often occurs during closure, potentially leading to reduced system oil and impacting the normal ...

Forest Net Primary Production Resistance Across a Gradient of Moderate Disturbance [PDF]
The global carbon (C) balance is vulnerable to disturbances that alter terrestrial C uptake and loss. Moderate disturbances that kill or defoliate only a subset of canopy trees such as insect defoliation, drought, and age-related senescence are ...

The Montado agroforestry system microclimatic specificity in the context of global change [PDF]
The effects of oak trees on microclimatic parameters in Quercus rotundifolia Lam. woodland in the Alentejo, Southern Portugal, are reported. Results show that oak tree create a marked differentiation in the grass matrix, between open and undercanopy ...

Rice panicle temperature and crop microclimate in stressful thermal environments: toward a model of spikelet sterility [PDF]
Rice inflorescences are sensitive to chilling and heat, resulting in spikelet sterility. It is not the air temperature itself, however, that causes the stress but the temperature of the sensitive tissues during specific developmental stages.

Royal canopy over the church entrance: Forms, spatial contexts, iconographic programs, and meaning of the dome in Serbian narthexes of the 14th century [PDF]
The churches commissioned by King (later Emperor) Stephen Dušan, his important dignitaries, and later Serbian rulers-e.g., Holy Archangels near Prizren, Lesnovo, Hilandar, Markov Manastir, Ravanica, and Manasija-often have a narthex or an entrance porch ...

Comparison of forest attributes derived from two terrestrial lidar systems. [PDF]
Terrestrial lidar (TLS) is an emerging technology for deriving forest attributes, including conventional inventory and canopy characterizations. However, little is known about the influence of scanner specifications on derived forest parameters.

Les lits de Louis XIII à Versailles. Entre sobriété et majesté : manifeste d’un dessein royal
Louis XIII’s beds at Versailles are not the best-known ones in the history of the palace. No pictures of them survive but other archival and printed sources allow us to analyse them and to study their usages and symbolic values.
