Data‐Driven Bulldozer Blade Control for Autonomous Terrain Leveling
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A simulation‐driven framework for autonomous bulldozer leveling is presented, combining high‐fidelity terramechanics simulation with a neural‐network‐based reduced‐order model. Gradient‐based optimization enables efficient, low‐level blade control that balances leveling quality and operation time.

Laboratory Procedure for Measuring the Effectiveness of Dust Control Palliatives [PDF]
, 2017 Creation of fugitive dust on unpaved roads results in the loss of up to 25 mm (one inch) of surface aggregate annually (FHWA, 1998). On these roads, shearing forces created by vehicles dislodge the fine aggregate fraction (silt and clay) that binds the ...

Long‐Term Elevated CO2 Improves Soil Health and Rice Yields in Paddy Fields
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Combining the two longest‐running rice free‐air CO2 enrichment experiments with a global data synthesis, this study demonstrates that long‐term elevated CO2 consistently enhances soil health. In rice paddies, this improvement sustains the CO2 fertilization effect over decades.

Mechanical Properties of Soil-cement Composites Made with Cohesive or Non-Cohesive Soil
IOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2019 The paper discusses results of mechanical and technological tests of soil-cement composites made with cohesive or non-cohesive soil. The compositions of the soil-cement mixtures analysed differed in terms of their cement paste volume fractions and water-cement ratios.

Flow of wet granular materials: a numerical study [PDF]
, 2015 We simulate dense assemblies of frictional spherical grains in steady shear flow under controlled normal stress $P$ in the presence of a small amount of an interstitial liquid, which gives rise to capillary menisci, assumed isolated (pendular regime ...

MGM as a Large‐Scale Pretrained Foundation Model for Microbiome Analyses in Diverse Contexts
Advanced Science, EarlyView.We present the Microbial General Model (MGM), a transformer‐based foundation model pretrained on over 260,000 microbiome samples. MGM learns contextualized microbial representations via self‐supervised language modeling, enabling robust transfer learning, cross‐regional generalization, keystone taxa discovery, and prompt‐guided generation of realistic,
