An Expertise Transfer Framework For Autonomous Surgical Assistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study introduces an expertise transfer framework for procedure‐spanning autonomous surgical assistance. By emulating expert logic through hierarchical perception, attention modeling, and knowledge graph‐based decision‐making, the system provides near‐expert surgical view assistance.

Linking community structure and climate vulnerability in desert plant assemblages of southern California

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Desert plant assemblages in southern California provide an opportunity to link patterns of community structure with climate‐driven vulnerability in a rapidly changing environment. California sustains an exceptionally diverse flora of approximately 4300 plant species, with 31% identified as endemic.

Success of coastal sage scrub restoration is influenced by local adaptations of shrub species

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Restoring plant communities is increasingly challenging with climate change. While practitioners have traditionally used local seed sources, many are recommending assisted migration, possibly from more extreme environments such as inland rather than coastal environments, for restoration.

Study on the Mechanism of Local Scour Around Bridge Piers

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Local scour around bridge piers poses significant challenges to the stability and safety of bridge structures. Local scour results from the combined effects of increased longitudinal flow velocity, the direct impact of the flow in front of the pier, and ...

Revisiting paravertebral muscles in European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) and European brown hares (Lepus europaeus) (Leporidae; Lagomorpha)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Domesticated European rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus) have long been chosen as laboratory model organisms. Despite this, there has been no definitive study of the vertebral musculature of wild rabbits. Relevant descriptions of well‐studied veterinary model mammals (such as dogs) are generally applicable, but not appropriate for a species ...

Studying the effect of partial blockage on multi-vents bridge pier scour experimentally and numerically

Ain Shams Engineering Journal, 2018
The local scour depth at bridge supports due to partial blockage on front of multi-vents bridge pier is studied experimentally and numerically. The existence of blockage such as debris and industrial wastes, leads to increase the local scour depth around

Deformation Analysis of Large Diameter Monopiles of Offshore Wind Turbines under Scour

Applied Sciences, 2020
The displacement of monopile supporting offshore wind turbines needs to be strictly controlled, and the influence of local scour can not be ignored. Using p–y curves to simulate the pile–soil interaction and the finite difference method to calculate ...

Scanning Parametric Sediment Echosounder as Tool for Underwater Archaeological Prospection

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Underwater cultural heritage 3D prospection techniques, especially for remains that are partly buried in the ground, are only very rarely available and often can only be applied with considerable technical effort. To overcome this limitation, we evaluate a methodological adaption of widely used and available single channel parametric sediment ...

Experimental Study on Local Scour at the Monopile Foundation of an Offshore Wind Turbine under the Combined Action of Wave–Current–Vibration

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
Monopile foundations are the most widely used offshore wind turbine foundations. The experiments were conducted to investigate the influencing factors of local scour around the monopile under the action of wave–current–vibration.
