LARGE-SCALE, HIGH-RESOLUTION MAPPING OF SOIL AGGREGATE STABILITY IN CROPLANDS USING APEX HYPERSPECTRAL IMAGERY

Large-Scale, High-Resolution Mapping of Soil Aggregate Stability in Croplands Using APEX Hyperspectral Imagery

Investigations into the spatial dynamics of soil aggregate stability (AS) are urgently needed to better target areas that have undergone soil degradation.However, due to the lack facial oil of efficient alternatives to the conventional labor-intensive methods to quantify AS, detailed information on its spatial structure across scales are scarce.The

Robust Control for Non-Minimum Phase Systems with Actuator Faults: Application to Aircraft Longitudinal Flight Control

This study is concerned with developing a robust tracking control system that merges the optimal control theory with fractional-order-based control and the heuristic optimization algorithms into a single framework for the non-minimum phase pitch angle dynamics of Boeing 747 aircraft.The main control objective is to deal with the non-minimum phase n

Modeling the appearance and progression of cognitive impairment

Introduction It remains difficult to predict which individuals will develop cognitive impairment and progress to major neurocognitive disorders.Prevention studies suffer from the long time frames and the manner in which this topic does not lend itself to randomized, double-blinded controlled trials.Objectives We aimed to construct a computer simula
