Consistent patterns of LiDAR-derived measures of savanna vegetation complexity between wet and dry seasons by Zhengyang Wang, Jenia Singh, Andrew B. Davies

“…It is assumed that seasonal variation in vegetation structure is not substantive enough to affect landscape-level correlational analyses, but this assumption has never been explicitly tested in savanna ecosystems. Moreover, phenological differences in vegetation are thought to adversely affect the comparability of LiDAR measurements from different seasons, but these effects have seldom been tested and could depend on data resolution. …”

Can power be made an empirically viable concept in policy process theory? Exploring the power potential of the Narrative Policy Framework by Tjorven Sievers, Michael D. Jones

“…While scientifically oriented process frameworks tend to be either implicitly or explicitly based on a pluralist understanding of power, critical theory focused approaches frequently point to power inequality in the policy process but remain vague on its conceptualization. …”

Power Management Problem for Civil Aircraft under More Electric Environment by Yuanchao Yang, Zichen Gao

“…To cope with the PMP for civil aircraft under more electric environment, in this paper, we explicitly give a detailed and complete modeling of all power supply resources (fuel and battery) and safety-critical electrical loads and cast the PMP as a mixed-integer nonlinear programming problem; we develop a practical solution methodology for the application on the real civil MEA. …”

Hysteresis Model for Flexure-Shear Critical Circular Reinforced Concrete Columns Considering Cyclic Degradation by Zhibin Feng, Jiying Wang, Hua Huang, Weiqi Liang, Yingjie Zhou, Qin Zhang, Jinxin Gong

“…This study develops a novel hysteresis model explicitly incorporating three key mechanisms: (1) directionally asymmetric strength degradation weighted by hysteretic energy, (2) cycle-dependent pinching governed by damage accumulation paths, and (3) amplitude-driven stiffness degradation decoupled from cycle count, calibrated and validated using 14 column tests from the Pacific Earthquake Engineering Research Center (PEER) structural performance database. …”
