OVERALL STABILITY BIFURCATION TALL OBJECTS BASED ON THE MODEL BASE AS A PLANE BOUNDED HALF

open access: yesStructural Mechanics of Engineering Constructions and Buildings, 2015
The article considers the model problem of the bifurcation stability of tall objects on de- formable foundation slab interacting with the base model based on the half-plane bounded on the basis of the Navier equations of ...

Methane Pyrolysis Performance in Catalytic Molten Media for Hydrogen Production From the Perspective of Bubble Column Reactor Design and Configuration

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the hydrogen production routes from natural gas (methane), methane pyrolysis offers a cleaner option than the established steam methane reforming by producing CO2‐free hydrogen. However, in fixed bed reactors over solid catalysts, this technology experiences rapid catalyst deactivation due to carbon (coke) deposition encapsulating its ...

Experimental methods for wind tunnel studies of seed dispersal by wind

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract The complexity and variability of natural environments make quantitative studies of seed wind dispersal challenging. Wind tunnel experiments offer a controlled alternative to investigate the mechanisms of seed wind dispersal. This review focuses on wind tunnels and the associated technologies used for studying seed wind dispersal, including ...

Object-Based Point Cloud Analysis of Full-Waveform Airborne Laser Scanning Data for Urban Vegetation Classification

open access: yesSensors, 2008
Airborne laser scanning (ALS) is a remote sensing technique well-suited for 3D vegetation mapping and structure characterization because the emitted laser pulses are able to penetrate small gaps in the vegetation canopy. The backscattered echoes from the

Implications of Geometry and the Theorem of Gauss on Newtonian Gravitational Systems and a Caveat Regarding Poisson’s Equation

open access: yesGalaxies, 2017
Galactic mass consistent with luminous mass is obtained by fitting rotation curves (RC = tangential velocities vs. equatorial radius r) using Newtonian force models, or can be unambiguously calculated from RC data using a model based on spin. In contrast,

Static and Dynamic Path Planning Using Incremental Heuristic Search

open access: yes, 2017
Path planning is an important component in any highly automated vehicle system. In this report, the general problem of path planning is considered first in partially known static environments where only static obstacles are present but the layout of the ...

Animal‐mediated seed dispersal: A review of study methods

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract By dispersing seeds, animals provide ecological functions critical for the ecology, evolution, and conservation of plants. We review quantitative and empirical approaches and emerging technologies to quantify processes and patterns of animal‐mediated seed dispersal (zoochory) across its phases: from predispersal to postdispersal.

A Pneumatic Fingerless Soft Gripper for Envelope Gripping

open access: yesActuators
In grasping operations, when facing unstructured environments, the use of soft-body grippers can be a good solution to the problem of grasping objects that are inconvenient to grasp due to their fragility and irregularity.
