The present work is to design a passive pitch-control essie pink glove mechanism for small horizontal axis wind turbine (HAWT) to generate stable power at high wind speeds.The mechanism uses a disk pulley as an actuator to passively adjust the pitch angle of blades by centrifugal force.For this design, aerodynamic braking is caused by the adjustmen
Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), also known as lucerne, is a major forage crop worldwide.In the United States, it has recently become the third most valuable field crop, with an estimated value of over $9.3 billion.Alfalfa is naturally infected by many different pathogens, including viruses, obligate parasites that reproduce only inside living host ce
The critical rod position search has been one of the issues in the Monte Carlo (MC) reactor analysis.This paper proposes a practical and simple approach michel germain deauville for the critical rod position search based on the neutron balance equation and the monotonic relation between the control rod absorption rate and the total rod insertion le
In November 2019, the novel coronavirus disease COVID-19 was reported in Wuhan city, China, and was reported in other countries around the globe.COVID-19 is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection.Strategies such as contact tracing and a vaccination program have been imposed to keep COVID-19 under control.Fu
In this paper, a three-dimensional (3D) impact-angle-control guidance law is proposed based on the harmonica carrying case approaches of nonsingular terminal sliding mode control and fixed-time convergence theory to intercept a maneuvering target.The guidance law is derived based on the coupled 3D engagement dynamics.To intercept the target with an
