ABSTRACT Marine operations traditionally rely on human intervention, a costly and disruptive method. Autonomous surface vehicles (ASVs) offer a powerful alternative, capable of operating autonomously, for extended periods, and with various sensors for various missions.

Experimental investigation of frost heave in clayey sands: Effects of density and thermal conditions [PDF]
This study experimentally investigates the effects of soil density and temperature boundary conditions on frost heave behaviour and ice lens formation in saturated specimens composed of a binary sand - kaolin mixture.

The Big Picture: Religion and Global Comparative History
This article considers what a ‘big picture’ approach to global religious history might look like, and in particular the implications of deploying the comparative method across much larger stretches of time and space than historians normally attend to. It will begin by reflecting on the epistemological moods that have hindered this project to date, the ...

Study on the Influence of Chamfer Perforation on Heave and Pitch of a Single Floating Platform
The aim of this work is to study the influence of chamfered perforation and chamfering on the heave and pitch motion of a single floating wind power platform with an anti-heave device.

Abstract figure legend We used a murine model of cardiomyocyte‐specific conditional knockout of plakophilin 2 (PKP2cKO, middle panel). Using advanced imaging technology, we unveiled distinct hallmarks of premature ageing in PKP2cKO cardiomyocytes, including DNA damage and loss of repressed heterochromatin at the nuclear periphery, and mitochondrial ...

Unsteady high-lift mechanisms from heaving flat plate simulations [PDF]
Flapping animal flight is often modeled as a combined pitching and heaving motion in order to investigate the unsteady flow structures and resulting forces that could augment the animal's lift and propulsive capabilities. This work isolates the heaving motion of flapping flight in order to numerically investigate the flow physics at a Reynolds number ...

Multi‐objective maritime vessel routing with safety considerations
Abstract The routing of maritime vessels is a challenging optimization problem that involves finding an adequate balance between conflicting and multiple objectives. This paper proposes a methodology based on inverse optimization to find appropriate objective weights that account for conflicting objectives. To formulate the inverse optimization problem,

Hydrodynamic Coefficients of Heave Plates, With Application to Wave Energy Conversion [PDF]
Wave energy converters (WECs) often employ submerged heave plates to provide reaction forces at depths below the level of wave motion. Here, two sets of heave plate experiments are described, at varying scale. First, the Oscillator uses a linear actuator to force laboratory scale (30.5-cm diameter) heave plates in sinusoidal motion. Second, the miniWEC

ABSTRACT Multiple Acyl‐CoA Dehydrogenase Deficiency (MADD) is an autosomal recessive inborn error of metabolism caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in one of three known genes: ETFA, ETFB, and ETFDH. It can cause multisystem dysfunction, including cardiomyopathy in severe cases.
