The process of developing and validating the ensemble nowcasting system in this study. Abstract In this study, a spatial and temporal analysis of three‐dimensional motion fields was conducted to formulate an ensemble nowcasting scheme. These motion fields were derived from radar data covering the entire volume and were analyzed across space and time ...

Abstract The accurate prediction and simulation of thermal transients in district heating networks is essential for the meaningful analysis of combined heat and power systems. For this purpose, the focus of this paper lies on the development of a consistent and comprehensive modelling framework that links diverse pipe model categories to specific ...

ABSTRACT Plant diseases cause an annual global crop loss of 20%–40%, leading to estimated economic losses of 30–50 billion dollars. Tomatoes are susceptible to more than 200 diseases. Breeding disease‐resistant cultivars is more cost‐effective and environmentally sustainable than the frequent use of pesticides.

Remote sensing image semantic segmentation network based on ENet
Abstract The current image semantic segmentation methods cannot meet the requirements of high precision and high speed for remote sensing image analysis. The ENet network model builds a semantic segmentation network, which has the characteristics of few network parameters and fast operation speed.

A Unified Topological Representation for Robotic Fleets in Agricultural Applications
ABSTRACT Agricultural robots offer a viable solution to the critical challenges of productivity and sustainability of modern agriculture. The widespread deployment of agricultural robotic fleets, however, is still hindered by the overall system's complexity, requiring the integration of several nontrivial components for the operation of each robot but ...

Abstract Due to its stochastic nature, wind energy imposes unprecedented challenges on the power grid, and a properly scheduled reserve is essential to accommodate wind power's intermittency and volatility. Many power reserve scheduling studies have considered the uncertainties of the renewable energy integration but few address how different wind ...

ROV Teleoperation in the Presence of Cross‐Currents Using Soft Haptics
ABSTRACT The remote operation of underwater vehicles at depth is complicated by the presence of invisible and unpredictable environmental disturbances such as cross‐currents. Communicating the presence of these disturbances to an operator on the surface is made more difficult by the nature of the disturbances and the lack of visible features to ...
