Solving for Blameless and Optimal Control Under Prioritized Safety Constraints

open access: yesOptimal Control Applications and Methods, Volume 47, Issue 3, Page 748-762, May/June 2026.
Summary of the proposed method for solving for blameless and optimal control sequences. ABSTRACT In many safety‐critical optimal control problems, users may request multiple safety constraints that are jointly infeasible due to external factors such as subsystem failures, unexpected disturbances, or fuel limitations.

Efficacy evaluation of pneumatic solid set canopy delivery system to control powdery mildew (Erysiphe necator) in Washington vineyards

open access: yesPest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 4815-4828, May 2026.
The findings of this study indicate that powdery mildew control achieved with the pneumatic solid set canopy delivery system (PSD‐SSCDS) was comparable with that of a conventional airblast sprayer. These results highlight the PSD‐SSCDS as a promising alternative spray technology. Abstract BACKGROUND In this study, a previously optimized pneumatic spray

Mapping River Bed Topography in Whitewater Rapids Using Bathymetric LiDAR

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 4, Page 886-900, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Bathymetric LiDAR captures river topography efficiently for clear and shallow water, but for mountain rivers, whitewater rapids still pose challenges. This study proposes a novel method to enable the extraction of bottom returns specifically in turbulent whitewater sections.

An Engineering Model for Static Yawed Wind Turbines Based on Actuator Line Simulations and Symbolic Regression

open access: yesWind Energy, Volume 29, Issue 5, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Yaw engineering models are commonly used as add‐ons to the industrial blade element momentum (BEM) framework to improve load and power predictions by accounting for the skewed wake effect. However, existing yaw engineering models show noticeable limitations in accurately predicting the induced velocity distribution across the blade span.

Swashplate control system [PDF]

open access: yes, 1987
A mechanical system to control the position of a rotating swashplate is developed. This system provides independent lateral cyclic, longitudinal cyclic and collective pitch control of a helicopter rotor attached to the swashplate, without use of a mixer ...

Annual survival in a dynamic species: pronghorn survival patterns across their northern range

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 3, May 2026.
Quantifying variation in demographic patterns, such as survival and recruitment, is critical for understanding population dynamics and informing evidence‐based and adaptive wildlife management. In this study, we leverage an extensive dataset from over 1000 GPS collared pronghorn Antilocapra americana to provide the first large‐scale evaluation of ...

Snow Water Storage Within Eight Pacific Coastal Watersheds in British Columbia (Canada) Inferred From Four Years of Airborne Lidar Data

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Maritime mountain snowpacks are among the least understood and most poorly quantified components of global snow water storage, despite their vital role in sustaining water supplies and ecosystem health. Here, we present a 4‐year record of snow mass distribution across eight small‐to‐medium‐sized (5.2–63.4 km2) watersheds within the coastal ...
