Irregular sleep/wake patterns are associated with poorer academic performance and delayed circadian and sleep/wake timing

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The association of irregular sleep schedules with circadian timing and academic performance has not been systematically examined. We studied 61 undergraduates for 30 days using sleep diaries, and quantified sleep regularity using a novel metric, the ...

Disease and degeneration of aging neural systems that integrate sleep drive and circadian oscillations

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2011
Sleep and circadian activity rhythms become irregular with age which are characterized by fragmented sleep during the night and increased daytime sleepiness.

The interaction between the Moon and the solar wind [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We study the interaction between the Moon and the solar wind using a three-dimensional hybrid plasma solver. The proton fluxes and electromagnetical fields are presented for typical solar wind conditions with different magnetic field directions.

Use of Actigraphy for the Evaluation of Sleep Disorders and Circadian Rhythm Sleep-Wake Disorders: An American Academy of Sleep Medicine Clinical Practice Guideline

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Sleep Medicine (JCSM), 2018
The purpose of this guideline is to establish clinical practice recommendations for the use of actigraphy in adult and pediatric patients with suspected or diagnosed sleep disorders or circadian rhythm sleep-wake disorders.

An alternative form of the super-Gaussian wind turbine wake model

open access: yesWind Energy Science, 2020
. A new analytical wind turbine wake model, based on a super-Gaussian shape function, is presented. The super-Gaussian function evolves from a nearly top-hat shape in the near wake to a Gaussian shape in the far wake, which is consistent with ...

The helix approach: using dynamic individual pitch control to enhance wake mixing in wind farms [PDF]

open access: yesWind Energy, 2019
Wind farm control using dynamic concepts is a research topic that is receiving an increasing amount of interest. The main concept of this approach is that dynamic variations of the wind turbine control settings lead to higher wake turbulence, and ...

Fluidic force and wake velocity of 3D body with four limbs in uniform flow

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2023
Robots that operate at a disaster site have been proposed and the dispatch of rescue robots to such site is required. However, discussion on the transport of these robots is insufficient.

Continued results from a field campaign of wake steering applied at a commercial wind farm – Part 2

open access: yesWind Energy Science, 2020
. This paper presents the results of a field campaign investigating the performance of wake steering applied at a section of a commercial wind farm. It is the second phase of the study for which the first phase was reported in Fleming et al. (2019).

Wake flow visualization of a dandelion pappus with posture change

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2023
A typical plant that is distributed by wind is the dandelion, which possesses a complex hairy pappus that aids in flying. A pappus or group of bristly filaments found in plumed seeds is believed to have a role in drag enhancement. The pappus prolongs the

Characteristics of unsteady flow around a vehicle affecting its high-speed stability during a dynamic steering action

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2014
In order to clarify unsteady flow structure’s behavior that improves vehicle’s high-speed stability during steering input, on-road analysis was conducted.
