LONG-TERM CHANGES IN THE FISH COMMUNITY STRUCTURE REVEALED BY GILLNET MONITORING IN A SHALLOW, LOWLAND RESERVOIR


Switchability and controllability of a thermal transistor

A thermal transistor consists of three segments, the drain, the source, and the gate.We study the influence of the thermal resistance R_{G} in the gate segment systematically and reveal its key importance.In contrast to the Doorstop negative differential thermal resistance between the drain and the source that has been studied extensively due to it

Cruise Range Optimization of a Propeller-Driven Light Aircraft Using a Direct Transcription Method with a Regularization Term

The problem of maximizing the range of a propeller-driven aircraft in a level flight cruise is analyzed within the framework of optimal control.The specific fuel consumption and propeller efficiency of its propulsive system are characterized by Water Hose Coupler functions of the velocity and engine power (full model), in contrast to previous works
