Lightning electromagnetic emission location using arrival time differencing (LEELA): An introduction to the Met Office's next generation Very Low Frequency lightning location system

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This paper describes the Met Office's new lightning location system LEELA. A brief overview of the upgraded hardware and geolocation algorithms is given. LEELA has improved lightning detection capabilities, especially at night. When comparing LEELA to the previous ATDnet system against ground truths LEELA has 100% storm detection efficiency within 5 km

Multi‐scale flow analysis for scale‐aware urban canopy models

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
We found that scale‐aware models are necessary when numerical weather prediction models approach hectometric resolution, which is associated with a characteristic length‐scale of morphological heterogeneity. This morphology‐dependent length‐scale indicates that resolved and unresolved heterogeneity are equally important.

Empiricism without metaphysics: Regius’ Cartesian natural philosophy

, 2013
This chapter is devoted to the philosophy of Henricus Regius, a Dutch philosopher and one of the first followers of Descartes. Regius’ philosophy presents an original version of Cartesianism insofar as it relies on a certain number of Cartesian ...

Formation Control With Obstacle Avoidance of Underwater Swarms Based on Relative Visual Feedback

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Underwater multi‐robot and swarm systems require advanced methodologies for controlling collective behavior. Conventional single‐robot techniques, such as tethering, sonar imaging, and acoustic localization, are not scalable or effective for swarm applications.

ADAPT: An Autonomous Forklift for Construction Site Operation

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient material logistics are critical in controlling costs and schedules in the construction industry. However, manual material handling remains prone to inefficiencies, delays, and safety risks. Autonomous forklifts offer a solution to streamline on‐site logistics, reducing reliance on human operators and mitigating labor shortages.

Vibrational Exfoliation of 2D Materials

Small, EarlyView.
Vibrational energy folds, fractures and exfoliates atomically and molecularly thin materials. Combining experimentation and computational methods, this unique vibrational synthesis pathway is revealed. This process overcomes barriers of existing approaches by processing 1000 g/L dispersions without loss in yield.

Imaging Ionic Displacements Across Inclined Ferroelectric Domains by a Reciprocity Approach to 4D‐STEM

Small, EarlyView.
Four‐dimensional STEM comprises a vast portfolio of electron microscopy methods in one data set, conventional plane‐wave illumination TEM being one of them. Here, the principle of reciprocity is employed to produce true structural projections of misoriented ferroelectric domains at atomic resolution. By reciprocal TEM imaging from four‐dimensional STEM

Distributed k‐WTA Network for Multi‐Manipulator Competition With Experimental Verifications

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this article, a new distributed k $k$‐winner‐take‐all (Dk $k$‐WTA) network is designed and used to construct a dynamic allocation scheme for competitive coordination tasks of multiple manipulators as embodied agents. The scheme is constructed based on the following two aspects. On one hand, with reference to a perspective that the Laplacian
