Avoidance of damaging postfire ‘salvage’ logging is key to the survival of many species, such as the threatened greater glider (Petauroides volans) and sooty owl (Tyto tenebricosa) [5]. Protecting residual old-forest habitats is one of the most crucial but politically challenging postfire ...
E.g., when I became a glider pilot some 35 years ago, my instructors used to proclaim that “the most dangerous aspect of the sport is the drive to the airport”. This was a widely held belief at the time even though it could not have been further from the truth. And while the sl...
Yet something as mundane as a toothache, right here and now, remains baffling. Perhaps this assessment can be placed in a different context. After all, the human brain is the most complex structure we have discovered in the universe.7 That is, if we look from the outside. Looking from ...

An example of long-term sensor bonding from the authors’ laboratory is an MFC element adhesively bonded on the landing wheel gear of a real glider plane [97]. This device was mounted with a standard Araldite® adhesive and used with a wireless electro-mechanical impedance (EMI) measurement ...

The major barriers to a more widespread introduction of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) beyond early adopters are the limited range, charging limitations, and costly batteries. An important question is therefore where these effects can be most effectively mitigated. An optimization model is developed...
