Climate change and perennial crop production: Evidence of yield impact and adaptation in California

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Perennial crops are economically important. They contribute to food security, providing essential nutrients that are often lacking in annual crops, and provide additional environmental benefits compared with annual crops. Despite their importance, empirical research on the impacts of climate change and adaptation on perennial crops remains ...

Nutation control during precession of a spin-stabilized spacecraft

open access: yes, 1973
The effects of precession thrust pulses and energy dissipation upon nutation of a spin-stabilized spacecraft are studied. Methods for controlling nutation during a precession maneuver are proposed and examined.

Effects of Installation Error on Tooth Surface Contact Characteristic of a Nutation Drive with Double Circular-arc Spiral Bevel Gear

open access: yesJixie chuandong, 2021
The contact characteristics of a nutation drive with double circular-arc spiral bevel gears are extremely sensitive to installation errors. To reveal the effects of installation errors on contact characteristics,the tooth surface contact analysis of ...

Adaptive Single-Mode Fiber Coupling Method Based on Coarse-Fine Laser Nutation

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2018
One of the major restrictions of the free-space optical communication systems is the limitation of single-mode fiber (SMF) coupling efficiency that impacts the system performance.

Structure Design and Magnetic Field Simulation of Non-contact Nutation Reduction Motor

open access: yesJixie chuandong, 2019
In order to solve the problem of weak stiffness of flexible wheels and more mechanical friction in existing robot harmonic reducer motors, a new type of nutation reducer motor is proposed by combining nutation deceleration motion with magnetic meshing ...

Testing a satellite automatic nutation control system

open access: yes, 1974
Testing of a particular nutation control system for the synchronous meteorological satellite (SMS) is described. The test method and principles are applicable to nutation angle control for other satellites with similar requirements.

Evaluation of the Efficiency of a Biobased Reactive Plasticizer on the Morphology and Properties of Sustainable Flexible Films Based on Poly(Lactic Acid) (PLA) Produced by Blown Film Extrusion

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
A comparative investigation of two epoxy additives derived from cardanol (NC513 and NC514s) for production of films based on poly (lactic acid) (PLA), acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC), and poly (butylene adipate‐co‐terephthalate) (PBAT) clarified their distinct roles, with NC513 mainly acting as a plasticizer, reducing viscosity and enhancing ductility ...

Finite element analysis of feeding in red and gray squirrels (Sciurus vulgaris and Sciurus carolinensis)

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Invasive gray squirrels (Sciurus carolinensis) have replaced the native red squirrel (Sciurus vulgaris) across much of Great Britain over the last century. Several factors have been proposed to underlie this replacement, but here we investigated the potential for dietary competition in which gray squirrels have better feeding performance than ...

The Electronic Spin State of Diradicals Obtained from the Nuclear Perspective: The Strange Case of Chichibabin Radicals. [PDF]

open access: yesChemphyschem
The electronic spin state of two Chichibabin radicals is investigated using 2‐dimensional hyperfine correlated Electron Nuclear Double Resonance. The protons (I=1/2) act as a reference for the electronic spin quantum number (S) via their hyperfine interactions.
