Flow patterns generated by oblate medusan jellyfish: field measurements and laboratory analyses [PDF]
, 2005 Flow patterns generated by medusan swimmers such as jellyfish are known to differ according the morphology of the various animal species. Oblate medusae have been previously observed to generate vortex ring structures during the propulsive cycle ...

Total and Partial Sleep Deprivation in Clomipramine-Treated Endogenous Depressives [PDF]
, 1990 Improvement in depression after total sleep deprivation (TSD) is, as a rule, followed by relapse after subsequent ad libitum sleep. This study is addressed to the question of how nocturnal partial sleep following TSD affects this relapse.

A Cross-Layer Approach for Minimizing Interference and Latency of Medium Access in Wireless Sensor Networks [PDF]
, 2010 In low power wireless sensor networks, MAC protocols usually employ periodic sleep/wake schedule to reduce idle listening time. Even though this mechanism is simple and efficient, it results in high end-to-end latency and low throughput.

Supply chain recovery challenges in the wake of COVID-19 pandemic
Journal of Business Research, 2021 The COVID-19 pandemic has revealed the fragility of global supply chains arising from raw material scarcity, production and transportation disruption, and social distancing. Firms need to carefully anticipate the difficulties during recovery and formulate appropriate strategies to ensure the survival of their businesses and supply chains.

Wind tunnel investigations of an individual pitch control strategy for wind farm power optimization [PDF]
Wind Energy ScienceThis article presents the results of an experimental wind tunnel study which investigates a new control strategy named Helix. The Helix control employs individual pitch control for sinusoidally varying yaw and tilt moments to induce an additional ...

Phase transitions in single neurons and neural populations: Critical slowing, anesthesia, and sleep cycles [PDF]
, 2010 The firing of an action potential by a biological neuron represents a dramatic transition from small-scale linear stochastics (subthreshold voltage fluctuations) to gross-scale nonlinear dynamics (birth of a 1-ms voltage spike). In populations of neurons

Towards higher accuracy in wind farm deficit decay modelling – a comparison
Meteorologische Zeitschrift, 2023 Wind farm wake behaviour and forecasting is gaining the importance recently. It is especially relevant in the German Bight where space for wind farm clusters is limited, and wind farm wake lengths of up to 60 km have been measured.

On the wake re-energization of the X-Rotor vertical-axis wind turbine via the vortex-generator strategy [PDF]
Wind Energy ScienceWake losses are a significant source of inefficiency in wind farm arrays, hindering the development of high-energy-density wind farms offshore. Studies have demonstrated the potential of vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) to achieve high-energy-density ...
