DOI: 10.1016/j.ast.2017.08.032
Abstract: Abstract A compromise solution to increase flight efficiency in cruise, but without penalising capacity (or even safety), would be perhaps to remove (or relax) the minimum rate of climb (ROC) constraint and/or to reduce the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ijplas.2017.09.003
Abstract: Abstract Recent experimental studies have shown that metals at submicron scale may harden rather than soften after high temperature annealing, which is contrast to the typical behavior at macro level. In the present work, a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/14724049.2017.1304398
Abstract: ABSTRACT In the management of protected areas, stakeholders range from supra-national organisations, through to national and local-level decision-makers. Although there has been substantive research on stakeholders, there is limited inquiry on involving them in the… read more here.

Interstitial-mediated dislocation climb and the weakening of particle-reinforced alloys under irradiation
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2018 at "Physical Review Materials"
DOI: 10.1103/physrevmaterials.2.080601
Abstract: Dislocations can climb out of their glide plane by absorbing (or emitting) point defects [vacancies and self-interstitial atoms (SIAs)]. In contrast with conservative glide motion, climb relies on the point defects' thermal diffusion and hence… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/lra.2022.3192798
Abstract: Controlling a legged robot to climb obstacles with different heights is challenging, but important for an autonomous robot to work in an unstructured environment. In this paper, we model this problem as a novel contextual… read more here.

Spatial repellents transfluthrin and metofluthrin affect the behavior of Dermacentor variabilis, Amblyomma americanum, and Ixodes scapularis in an in vitro vertical climb assay

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0269150
Abstract: Repellents serve an important role in bite protection. Tick repellents largely rely on biomechanisms that induce responses with direct contact, but synthetic pyrethroids used as spatial repellents against insects have received recent attention for potential… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/life12111928
Abstract: Background: Surgical reconstruction of the internal iliac artery (IIA) or its branches is sometimes demanding because of difficulty in distal clamping and suturing in the narrow pelvic space. Here we present a hybrid technique of… read more here.
