Home foreclosure discounts in auctions without reserve prices
Abstract This article estimates foreclosure discounts in Cape Town, South Africa, where, until 2019, foreclosure auctions occurred without reserve prices. Using newly constructed data linking sheriff auction notices to the universe of property transactions, rich property characteristics, and municipal service‐request records, I document large ...

Standing on a common ground: a comparison of static stability approaches for pallet loading
Abstract At the practical level, the static stability constraint is one of the most important constraints in practical pallet loading problems, such as air cargo palletizing. Approaches to modeling static stability, which range from base support and mechanical equilibrium calculations to physical simulation, differ in workflow, focus, and assumptions ...

Virtual Elastic Tether: A New Approach for Multi‐Agent Navigation in Confined Aquatic Environments
ABSTRACT Underwater navigation is a challenging area in the field of mobile robotics due to inherent constraints in self‐localization and communication in underwater environments. Some of these challenges can be mitigated by using collaborative multi‐agent teams.

The time-varying equivalent roll damping coefficient and natural frequency in a nonlinear state-space model of a floating body are discussed in this article using an augmented extended Kalman filtering (EKF) method. In this paper, we present an estimation technique that can identify changes in the damping properties of the system considered by a single

Control System for the Navigation of the Agricultural Robots: A Review
ABSTRACT Control systems for the navigation of autonomous agricultural robots—particularly those operating in uneven terrain and in the presence of static or dynamic obstacles—have advanced considerably in recent years. As conventional machinery evolves toward increasingly automated systems, the design of reliable navigation controllers has become ...

Three genotypes – a heat‐resistant maize (Zea mays), a heat‐susceptible maize, and a sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) variety – were grown to the V4 stage in growth chambers under optimal conditions or subjected to heat stress. Plants were grown in soil containing a complex microbial community, or in the same soil with a depleted microbiome.

Preparation of lightweight composite panels from multilayer beverage carton waste. ABSTRACT Beverage carton waste, a multi‐layer composite of cardboard, polymer, and aluminum, presents significant recycling challenges for conventional recovery technologies. This work presents a manufacturing process‐oriented method that allows shredded beverage cartons
