Numerical and experimental investigation of the steering performance of a ringsail parachute by HUANG Yunyao, WU Shiqing, WANG Yongbin, ZHANG Yang

“…., the drag coefficient is greatly reduced as the length of the suspension lines is shortened, and in the meanwhile, compared with the non-steering ringsail parachute, the improvement of the gliding ratio can be up to 80%, which demonstrates the benefits for the gliding ability; While the second steering approach has an significant impact on the drag characteristics of the ringsail parachute, i.e., as the length of reefing control lines is shortened, the reefing effect is enhanced and the drag characteristics is reduced, whereas compared with the non-steering ringsail parachute, the improvement of the gliding ratio only reaches up to 10%, which demonstrates that the reefing control has little effect on the gliding performance. …”

Rethinking the Key Factors for the Generalization of Remote Sensing Stereo Matching Networks by Liting Jiang, Feng Wang, Wenyi Zhang, Peifeng Li, Hongjian You, Yuming Xiang

“…To improve the generalization ability of stereo matching networks on cross-domain data from different optical sensors and scenarios, in this article, we are dedicated to studying the key training factors from three perspectives. 1) When selecting a training dataset, prioritize data with similar regional target distribution as the test set, rather than relying on data from the same sensor. 2) Regarding the training modes, unsupervised methods generalize better than supervised methods. 3) We devised an unsupervised early stop strategy to help preserve the best model based on the pretrained weights. …”
