High speed side-view videos of sliding drops enable researchers to investigate drop dynamics and surface properties. However, understanding the physics of sliding requires knowledge of the drop width. A front-view perspective of the drop is necessary. In
We propose a susceptible-exposed-infective-recovered-type (SEIR-type) meta-population model to simulate and monitor the (COVID-19) epidemic evolution. The basic model consists of seven categories, namely, susceptible (S), exposed (E), three infective cla

port costs, port time, freight rate and how much cargo the vessel can lift. These factors are taken along with the standard information for each vessel such as the speed and bunker consumption, the price and quantity of
should be collected and included in models to help control for variation when possible. Other effort-based measures may be used, such as time spent searching, distance traveled while searching, number of observers in the search party, or time of day (e.g., eBird [36]). For camera traps ...
Table 2 displays the monthly average values of wind speed at a distance of 50 m. The average wind speed values measured at 15 m, the average wind speed values calculated at 50 m and the average wind speed values for a year are given in Table 3. Table 3. 15m, 50 m and annual aver...
battery (based on current Tesla battery packs), but recognize that we only get about 20% of the energy from fuel as Work (due to low efficiency of ICE vehicles), that drops the difference to 20 to 1, for long distance trips (over 250 miles) the gasoline vehicle will be faster to ...
possibly allowance for dry dock and special survey costs. Running costs may be included in an estimate but it is more usual to make a deduction from the TCE. Obviously an owner may have a different attitude to long term running costs (say, including docking and survey) to his view of cos...
Monitoring the use of anchored fish aggregating devices (AFADs) is essential for effective fisheries management. However, detecting the use of these devices is a significant challenge for fisheries management in Indonesia. These devices are continually d
