Application of bifurcation methods for the prediction of low-speed aircraft ground performance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The design of aircraft for ground manoeuvres is an essential part in satisfying the demanding requirements of the aircraft operators. Extensive analysis is done to ensure that a new civil aircraft type will adhere to these requirements, where the ...

Computational analysis of the effect of bogie inclination angle on landing gear noise

open access: yes, 2010
Airframe noise and in particular main landing gear noise is a major noise source during the approach phase. Wind tunnel tests have shown a strong relationship between the inclination angle of the bogie and the noise radiation of a main landing gear ...

Length‐Based Assessment of the Seven Most Commonly Caught Coral Reef Fish Species to Support Improve Management of Small‐Scale Fisheries in Southwest Madagascar

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 1, February 2026.
ABSTRACT The status of most fish stocks in Madagascar remains poorly documented. Given their importance for food security and livelihoods, it is necessary to define management measures with reliable data. This study applied a length‐based Bayesian biomass (LBB) estimation method for analysing the fisheries' representative length‐frequency data of seven

When property becomes rent

open access: yesAmerican Ethnologist, Volume 53, Issue 1, Page 45-56, February 2026.
Abstract For millions of working‐class Mexicans, property has turned into rent. This transformation has fundamentally dislocated social reproduction in Mexico by eroding households’ ability to envision themselves as holders of patrimony and as lasting social formations. To understand how and to what effect property turned into rent, we must look to the

LCA‐based evaluation of greenhouse gas reduction potentials of carbon/carbon wheel brakes for medium‐haul aircraft

open access: yesInternational Journal of Applied Ceramic Technology, Volume 23, Issue 1, February 2026.
Abstract Air transport is expected to substantially grow in the next decades, presenting a significant challenge for the aviation industry to reconcile this growth with the need to mitigate climate change by reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. A viable strategy for diminishing aviation emissions involves reducing aircraft fuel consumption, which ...

Community science datasets identify the spatial occurrence and hotspots of flapper skate (Dipturus intermedius)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 108, Issue 2, Page 446-457, February 2026.
Abstract The flapper skate, Dipturus intermedius (Parnell, 1837), is a large‐bodied, slow‐growing and late‐maturing, Critically Endangered elasmobranch with a constrained population distribution. Here, we use two longitudinal community science datasets to investigate the occurrence of flapper skates in Irish waters. The two datasets are as follows: the

Only One Percent of Important Shark and Ray Areas in the Western Indian Ocean Are Fully Protected From Fishing Pressure

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Delineation of Important Shark and Ray Areas (ISRAs) In the Western Indian Ocean was enhanced by the verification and incorporation of unpublished records. Even with this expanded dataset, ~99% of ISRA coverage fell outside of fully protected, no‐take MPAs.

Aerodynamic Characteristics and Control Strategy Design of a Variable Vertical Tail Morphing Aircraft

open access: yesInternational Journal of Aerospace Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The research object of this paper is a novel morphing aircraft. The V‐tail is a tiltable heading stabilizer that can be deflected in the range of 0°~75° continuously. According to the mission requirements, the aircraft can be transformed into stealth flying wings and high mobility layout configuration; the “scorpion tail” at the rear of the fuselage is
