The aerodynamic effects of wing–wing interaction in flapping insect wings [PDF]
We employed a dynamically scaled mechanical model of the small fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster (Reynolds number 100–200) to investigate force enhancement due to contralateral wing interactions during stroke reversal (the 'clap-and-fling').

Physical Modelling of Tidal Stream Turbine Wake Structures under Yaw Conditions
Tidal stream turbines may operate under yawed conditions due to variability in ocean current directions. Insight into the wake structure of yawed turbines can be essential to ensure efficient tidal stream energy extraction, especially for turbine arrays ...

Sensitivity and Uncertainty of the FLORIS Model Applied on the Lillgrund Wind Farm
Wind farms experience significant efficiency losses due to the aerodynamic interaction between turbines. A possible control technique to minimize these losses is yaw-based wake steering.

Wind Farm Wake-Steering Exploration During Grid Curtailment [PDF]
Wind farm wake steering is an active topic in the wind community. Yaw-induced wake steering in wind farms has shown significant increases in total wind farm power output. Unfortunately, sensor uncertainty and model uncertainty often make pure model-driven approaches less effective.

Stroke with unknown time of symptom onset: baseline clinical and magnetic resonance imaging data of the first thousand patients in WAKE-UP (efficacy and safety of mri-based thrombolysis in wake-up stroke: a randomized, doubleblind, placebo-controlled trial) [PDF]
Background and Purpose—We describe clinical and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) characteristics of stroke patients with unknown time of symptom onset potentially eligible for thrombolysis from a large prospective cohort.

Development and validation of a hybrid data-driven model-based wake steering controller and its application at a utility-scale wind plant [PDF]
Despite the promise of wind farm control through wake steering to reduce wake losses, the deployment of the technology to wind plants has historically been limited to small and simple demonstrations.

Hijacking emergency granulopoiesis: Neutrophil ontogeny and reprogramming in cancer
Neutrophils are highly plastic innate immune cells; their functions in cancer extend beyond the tumour microenvironment. This Review summarises current understanding of neutrophil maturation and heterogeneity and highlights tumour‐induced granulopoiesis as a systemic programme that expands immature, immunosuppressive neutrophils via tumour‐derived ...

Measurements of roll, steering, and the far-field wake in track cycling
AbstractA series of measurements taken with two instrumented track bicycles in a velodrome are presented. The bicycle wheel speed, cadence, roll angle, steering angle, power, and airspeed are recorded. The experimentally-measured values are compared to existing theoretical models of roll and steering angles.
