Superior through‐plane thermal conductivity in carbon fibers/spherical graphene/epoxy laminated composites for low‐altitude aircrafts

open access: yesInfoMat, EarlyView.
To address the low through‐plane thermal conductivity (λ⊥) of carbon fiber/epoxy composites, which poses thermal management challenges in the expanding low‐altitude economy, we incorporated spherical thermally reduced graphene (s‐TRG) as a bridging filler. This architectural design achieved a λ⊥ of 2.73 W m–1 K–1 at 10 wt% loading.

Pilot modeling, modal analysis, and control of large flexible aircraft [PDF]

open access: yes, 1984
The issues to be addressed are threefold. The first deals with the question of whether dynamic aeroelastic effects can significantly impact piloted flight dynamics.

Tropical Cyclone Rainfall Spatial Asymmetries in the Lesser Antilles

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Rainfall is not proportional to the Saffir‐Simpson wind‐based categories. Lower category tropical cyclones (TS, H1, H2 and H3) can generate more intense rainfall than H4 and H5. Rainfall is asymmetric; as a tropical cyclone intensifies or weakens, the location of peak rainfall shifts.

Failure in Motion: A Framework for Capability Erosion and Institutional Dysfunction

open access: yesStrategic Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Drawing on the literature on capability erosion and institutional dysfunction (ID), this study develops a conceptual framework that sheds new light on how the interaction between capability erosion and ID creates conditions for business failure across borders. By articulating two dimensions of heterogeneous capability and resource erosion (i.e.

Analysis of flexible aircraft longitudinal dynamics and handling qualities. Volume 2: Data [PDF]

open access: yes
Two analysis methods are applied to a family of flexible aircraft in order to investigate how and when structural (especially dynamic aeroelastic) effects affect the dynamic characteristics of aircraft.

Ordered Median Traveling Salesman Problem

open access: yesNetworks, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper introduces a novel combinatorial optimization problem with ordering constraints, termed the Ordered Median Traveling Salesman Problem (OMTSP). The OMTSP integrates key elements from both the classic Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) and the Ordered Median Location Problem.

Prediction of wing aeroelastic effects on aircraft lift and pitching moment characteristics [PDF]

open access: yes
The distribution of flight loads on an aircraft structure determine the lift and pitching moment characteristics of the aircraft. When the load distribution changes due to the aeroelastic response of the structure, the lift and pitching moment ...

What's there beyond the sun and the sea? Detecting tourists' interest towards nature in a mass tourism destination using social media data

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Nature‐based tourism is a rapidly growing subsector of the international tourism industry. However, capturing broad‐scale patterns of nature visits during touristic trips or visitors' appreciation of nature may be difficult using traditional data sources and methods. In this study, we harness geotagged social media data to understand the scale
