Flood Hazard Assessment using Morphometry in Geospatial Environment
, 2022 Abstract Morphometric analysis has been applied in flood assessment in selective catchment damaged in 2014 Kashmir flood. Sukhnag-Ferozpur catchment being located in hilly terrain of Kashmir basin, during heavy rainfall events all the water flows towards plainer low lying area causing floods in the urban areas along different drainage pathways.

When the River Runs Low: Heterogeneous Impacts of Transportation Disruptions on Local Grain Basis
Agribusiness, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A substantial share of U.S. soybean and corn exports from the Midwest moves by barge along the Mississippi River system to export terminals in the Louisiana Gulf. Transportation costs between Midwestern grain elevators and export terminals create a wedge between prices at these locations, and shocks to these costs are partially passed on to ...

AIChE Journal, EarlyView.Abstract Filamentous microorganisms exhibit complex morphologies that influence product formation and are affected by various bioprocess parameters. Consistent morphology is therefore essential for comparable results during scale‐up. This study investigates the scale‐up of Streptomyces species (Streptomyces spp.) cultivations from shake flasks to ...

Intelligent Operator‐Independent Flexibility in Robotic Non‐Destructive Evaluation
Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.Non‐destructive evaluation of high‐value components remains a manufacturing bottleneck due to rigid robotic calibration and fixturing. This study presents a flexible, adaptable system integrating 3D vision and force‐position control with a collaborative KUKA LBR robot. The geometry‐agnostic system enables pose‐independent ultrasonic inspection, detects
