Unraveling the Spatiotemporal Dynamics and Nonlinear Drivers of Green Transition of Farmland Use in Major Grain‐Producing Areas: A Case Study of Jiangsu Province, China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Promoting the green transition of farmland use (GTFU) in major grain‐producing areas is essential for ensuring food security and advancing sustainable agricultural development. However, existing studies on GTFU have predominantly relied on static cross‐sectional analyses, with insufficient attention paid to its nonlinear driving mechanisms. To

Bed‐level tools for monitoring erosion and accretion patterns: Flume validation and field testing

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Monitoring short‐term changes in surface sediment elevation is fundamental to understanding erosion, transport, and deposition dynamics in shallow coastal environments. However, commonly used field approaches, such as horizontal markers, sediment erosion tables, subsurface sediment plates, or erosion pins, are not always cross‐validated under ...

Research Study Concerning the Structural Design of a Drone Using 3D Print Technology

Macromolecular Symposia, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The frame of a drone serves as support to hold in place all the key components of the drone, such as the battery, controller board, motors, and all the modules needed for different projects. In the industry, the drone frame is CNC machined from a block of material, or in some cases it is made of composite materials, carbon fiber, and ...

Approximate Reachability for Feedback Linearizable Systems

Optimal Control Applications and Methods, EarlyView.
The backwards reachable set for a dynamical system is the set of states for which there exists a constraint admissible trajectory that reaches a given terminal set. Conventional grid‐based approaches for computing these sets are intractable for many applications.
