Multi-Mode Flight Simulation and Energy-Aware Coverage Path Planning for a Lift+Cruise QuadPlane
DronesThis paper describes flight planning supported by modeling, guidance, and feedback control for an electric Vertical Take-Off and Landing (eVTOL) QuadPlane small Uncrewed Aircraft System (sUAS). Five Lift+Cruise sUAS waypoint types are defined and used to

An adaptive dual-optimal path-planning technique for unmanned air vehicles
International Journal for Simulation and Multidisciplinary Design Optimization, 2016 A multi-objective technique for unmanned air vehicle path-planning generation through task allocation has been developed. The dual-optimal path-planning technique generates real-time adaptive flight paths based on available flight windows and ...

Global Rather Than Vertical‐Selective Saccadic Abnormalities in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Objective To test whether vertical saccades are preferentially affected in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP). Methods PSP patients (n = 24) were compared to age‐matched controls (n = 94) and two degenerative groups (Alzheimer's disease, n = 20; Lewy body disease, n = 50).

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.A new class of photoresponsive liquid‐crystalline (LC) adhesives based on biomineral‐inspired organic/inorganic colloidal hybrids is reported. These colloidal LC materials are formed by hybridization of a hydroxyapatite nanorod with azobenzene‐based forklike molecules.

Coordinated Architectural and Chemical Reinforcement in the Crushing Mandible of a Soldier Termite
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.The crushing mandible of a soldier termite withstands substantial biting loads despite lacking mineral. Its cuticle is partitioned: convex teeth pair hardness and zinc enrichment with aligned chitin fibers for contact durability, while stiffer concave regions between teeth carry bending loads.
