A Three-Dimensional Microwave Sparse Imaging Approach Using Higher-Order Basis Functions by Nebojsa Vojnovic, Lorenzo Crocco, Marija Nikolic Stevanovic

“…Our measurement model relates the data and the parameters of the spherical harmonics’ sources, which are uniformly distributed on a grid sampling the imaging domain. By relying on the theory of degrees of freedom of electromagnetic fields, it can be shown that only a few harmonics are sufficient to accurately represent the measured scattered field from objects whose diameter is of the order of the wavelength, thus allowing reducing the dimension of the adopted dictionary. …”

Exploring the interplay between population profile and optimal routes in U.S. cities by Diego Ortega, Elka Korutcheva

“…We discovered that the total sum of all routes follows an urban law. The distribution of these car journeys is fitted by Weibull functions, suggesting that the urban center plays a crucial role in optimizing routes across multiple cities. …”

Analysis and Modelling of Ship Manoeuvring Simulation in Landslide-Generated Waves by Peiyin Yuan, Yu Zhao

“…The geological conditions of the Three Gorges Reservoir Region are complex and changing, and large- and medium-sized landslides are widely distributed. When a high-speed moving landslide enters the water, the water is significantly disturbed, and a landslide-generated wave will be formed, which will spread along the upstream and downstream of the river, causing significant threats and destruction to the hydraulic structures and the navigation of ships. …”

Secondary Lund jet plane as a gluon-enriched sample by Cristian Baldenegro, Alba Soto-Ontoso, Gregory Soyez

“…We also show that the extracted gluon purities are highly resilient to the overall colour structure of the event, to the flavour of the hard-scattering process, and to the parton distribution functions. This strategy is well-suited for constraining the radiation pattern of gluon-initiated jets using a set of fiducial cuts that can readily be tested at the LHC, without relying on taggers or statistical demixing.…”

The pitfalls of Ethiopian road developments: socio-economic impacts by Mulugeta Getu Sisay

“…The desire to make transport infrastructure a universal good that all who need it could use has stimulated research works on assessing the impact of transport decisions on social welfare and equitable distribution of cost, benefits and opportunities. To trigger alternative policy debates, this paper employs the social equity framework and spells out the socio-economic pitfalls and undesired consequences of road infrastructure expansion and the power dynamics involved in Ethiopia. …”
