Wind turbines influence several abiotic conditions in the environments they are sited in and may influence the behavior and movement of insect pollinators. It is unknown how operating turbines influence plant–pollinator interactions. To investigate if pollination dynamics could be affected by the presence of wind turbines, we recorded videos of ...

Nonlinear Receding‐Horizon Differential Game for Drone Racing Along a Three‐Dimensional Path
ABSTRACT Drone racing requires high‐speed navigation through three‐dimensional paths, posing significant challenges in control engineering. Existing control methods lack a feedback control framework that simultaneously addresses nonlinear drone dynamics and multi‐agent competitive interactions, such as overtaking or obstructing opponents.

ABSTRACT To reduce the need for scheduled wind turbine blade inspections and large‐scale repairs, a novel distributed acoustic sensing system for monitoring the structural health of wind turbine blades is proposed. This integral passive monitoring system utilizes a sparse array of in‐blade multimodal sensors and a single blade‐external downtower sensor,

Abstract This study investigates clear‐air turbulence that triggered a helicopter accident in the lee of a mountain range near Koriyama, Japan, on 1 February 2020. Using numerical weather prediction models with horizontal resolutions of 1 km and 100 m, we examined the environmental conditions and mechanisms responsible for the turbulence.
