ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.A nanostructured photonic‐thermal coating enables radiative‐cooling‐induced condensation and water harvesting, establishing a self‐sustaining agrivoltaics microclimate loop that transforms PV panels into active climate regulators. The integration of photovoltaic (PV) panels into agricultural landscapes (i.e., agrivoltaics) offers a promising path for ...

Backstepping and Robust Control for a Quadrotor in Outdoors Environments: An Experimental Approach
IEEE Access, 2019 This paper addresses the tracking control of quadrotors flying outdoors. Two control laws are combined and tested in real-time experiments. The aircraft attitude and the translational displacement are controlled using the backstepping approach, while the

Bio‐Inspired Sclerotization of Lignin: A Robust Adhesive for Photothermal Wood‐Based Panels
ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.A high‐performance lignin adhesive is engineered via an insect‐inspired sclerotization strategy involving oxidation and hyperbranched polymer grafting, overcoming lignin's adhesion failure, and yielding a wet shear strength of 1.02–1.21 MPa. The adhesive endows wood‐based panels with photothermal functionality; building energy simulations indicate HVAC‐
