Characterizing Maritime Snow Canopy Interception in Forested Mountains

open access: yesWater Resources Research, 2019
Air temperature (Tair) plays an important role in determining how a canopy intercepts snow and apart from event size is the single most important micrometeorological variable found to adequately influence interception rates and magnitude.

An experimental study of unsteady hydrodynamics of a single scull [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The effect of hull dynamics on the hydrodynamic performance of a single scull is investigated via a combination of field trials and tank tests. The location of laminar-turbulent transition in unsteady flow is explored via several series of hot-film ...

Instance Segmentation of Ship Images Based on Multi-Branch Adaptive Feature Fusion and Occluded Region Decoupling in Occluded Scenes

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering
Instance segmentation accurately extracts the position and outline of ships, serving as the foundation for maritime safety tasks such as multi-object tracking, sensor fusion, and collision warning. This study focuses on single-frame segmentation and aims

Residual tail twisting in ascidian larvae is stabilized by asymmetric myofibrils that resist bilateral symmetry restoration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Ascidian Ciona larvae initially show strong clockwise tail twisting, which is largely corrected during development. However, a small residual twist remains. This study shows that organized helical myofibrils in tail muscles mechanically stabilize this residual asymmetry, preventing complete restoration of bilateral symmetry and revealing how embryos ...

Electrochemical Evaluation of Compressed Selective Laser Melted AlSi7Mg and AlSi10Mg Alloys in Chloride Environment

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The corrosion performance of AlSi7Mg and AlSi10Mg alloys produced through selective laser melting (SLM) was examined under compressive stress in a chloride environment. Electrochemical analyses, including open‐circuit potential (OCP), potentiodynamic polarization (CPP), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), were complemented by scanning ...
