Automated Lawn Maintenance: An Agronomic and Operational Review of Turf Health, Biodiversity, and Field Performance

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Grass mowing is one of the most resource‐consuming activities in green maintenance, whether in private areas such as home gardens or in public spaces like urban parks. In recent years, concerns related to climate change, human health, and sustainability have become increasingly prominent in green maintenance, leading manufacturers and industry

Stair‐Climbing Wheelchairs for Enhanced Mobility: A Comprehensive Review of Fundamental Mechanisms, Design Concepts, and Performance Analysis

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT People with physical disabilities face significant mobility challenges while climbing uneven surfaces and staircases. In these circumstances, traditional wheelchairs do not provide stable, safely controlled mobility, underscoring the importance of building superior stair‐climbing wheelchairs for both medical and infrastructure purposes.

Using Airborne Laser Scanning and Sentinel‐2 to Understand Subcanopy Light Regimes and Understory Diversity of Vascular Plants in Temperate Mountain Forests

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that not just Airborne Laser Scanning, but also Sentinel‐2 can effectively estimate absolute canopy cover and canopy cover heterogeneity ‐ structural metrics that determine the subcanopy light regime, found to be linked to the vascular plant species richness in the understory of temperate mountain forests.

A Family Affair: War, Agency and Female Epistolary Networks in Renaissance Italy

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article draws on the largely unexplored epistolary archive of dozens of women who were born or married into military families in northern Italy around the time of the first phase of the Italian Wars (1494–1530). Building on recent work on early modern agency, patriarchy, networks and emotional communities, the article reconstructs and ...

COMMON SENSE LAW: Making Right/s in the Liberal City

open access: yesInternational Journal of Urban and Regional Research, EarlyView.
Abstract This article, co‐authored by encampment and university scholars, is concerned with how homeless persons challenge rightlessness. We do so by advancing a conceptual framework of common sense law, arguing that such contestations take place not only in courtrooms but also in the lived spaces of homelessness.

The influence of cutting height on arthropods in farm grassland

open access: yesInsect Conservation and Diversity, EarlyView.
Mowing at a cutting height of 13 cm slightly reduced the immediate negative impact of mowing compared to mowing at a height of 7 cm. Medium‐term effects overrode this benefit: the number of vegetation‐dwelling arthropods remained strongly reduced two and four weeks after mowing, regardless of the cutting height.

Adaptive Sliding Mode Trajectory Tracking Control for WMR Considering Skidding and Slipping via Extended State Observer

open access: yesEnergies, 2019
When the wheeled mobile robot (WMR) is required to perform specific tasks in complex environment, i.e., on the forestry, wet, icy ground or on the sharp corner, wheel skidding and slipping inevitably occur during trajectory tracking.

Dynamic Trust Formation in AI‐Enabled Automation: A Longitudinal Case Study of an Advanced Driver Assistance System

open access: yesInformation Systems Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Artificial intelligence (AI)–enabled automation is often utilised in systems that perform human tasks. While useful, these technologies pose a risk of adverse consequences in the case of AI failures as they operate in open environments, learn and are subject to continuous updates.
