For some flight missions, such as autonomous landing on mobile platforms, the demands on indicators such as target-tracking accuracy and so on are relatively high. To achieve this, a guidance system with excellent precision is necessary. An asymmetric tracking differentiator based on a tracking differentiator is proposed to establish the guidance system. On the basis of the proposed asymmetric tracking differentiator, an altitudinal and horizontal helicopter guidance system structure is designed. In this paper, a guidance law is designed in order to meet the accuracy and precision requirements in the autonomous landing and transition process. Apart from that, a plane-motion-guidance law is also designed to realize static and dynamic point tracking, linear route tracking and circular route tracking to improve the trajectory smoothness and accuracy. Finally, simulations of the autonomous landing process on moving platforms, including three stages, namely approaching, tracking and landing, are completed. The application effects and precision of the autonomous landing guidance algorithm under different wave heights and period conditions are analyzed through the obtained simulation curves.

The final and one of the most important stages of the aircraft-type unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) flight is landing. In this regard the problem of automating the control by UAV landing in difficult meteorological conditions is becoming increasingly urgent. In some cases for refueling and recharging UAVs it is advisable to use the dynamic mobile landing site (MLS) instead of the traditional stationary landing site (SLS). In the present paper we consider the setting of and solution of the control problem by the terminal landing maneuver of a UAV. It provides its transfer from the current initial state to the target final state along " flexible" kinematic trajectories both on the SLS and on the MLS. To solve the problem of automatic landing of UAV on SLS or MLS the mathematical model of the dynamics of its movement was developed. It’s based on the concept of " flexible" kinematic trajectories with spatial synchronization of controlled movements. The control algorithm by the terminal vertical landing maneuver of UAV on SLS by the method of dynamics inverse problem using the principle of " flexible" kinematic trajectories is developed. And also the control algorithm by the terminal landing maneuver of UAV on MLS by the method of dynamics inverse problems using the principles of " flexible" kinematic trajectories and aiming into the target point was also developed. Computer approbation of the synthesized control algorithms for the landing maneuver of UAV "Aerosonde" under conditions of various wind disturbances was carried out using digital modeling in the Matlab environment.

Earth observation with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) offers an extraordinary opportunity to bridge the gap between field observations and traditional air and space-borne remote sensing. In this regard, ground landing stations (GLS) systems play a central role to increase the time and area coverage of UAV missions. Bluetooth low energy (BLE) technology and the received signal strength indicator (RSSI) techniques have been proposed for target location during UAV landing. However, these RSSI-based techniques present a lack of precision due to the propagation medium characteristics, which leads to UAV position vagueness. In this sense, the development of a novel low-cost GLS system for UAV tracking and landing is proposed. The GLS system has been embodied for the purpose of testing the UAV landing navigation capability. The maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) algorithm is addressed on an embedded microcontroller for the position estimation based on the RSSI acquired from an array of BLE devices. Experimental results demonstrate the feasibility and accuracy of the ground landing station system, achieving average errors of less than 0.04 m with the UAV-MLE target position estimation approach. This 0.04 m distance represents an order of magnitude increase in location precision over other currently available solutions. In many cases, this increased precision can enable more innovative docking mechanisms, less likelihood of mishaps in docking, and also quicker docking. It may also facilitate docking procedures where the docking station is itself moving, which may be the case if the docking unit is a mobile ground rover.

Abstract A UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) landing robot system based on a six-degree-of-freedom hexapod and computer vision with ArUco marker and sparse optical flow is implemented in this paper. By using binocular camera measuring the real-time position and orientation of UAV, a dynamic target tracking method based on ArUco marker and sparse optical flow is proposed. In this method, the ArUco marker is combined with sparse optical flow to improve the accuracy of target detection and the matching error of binocular stereo matching. The binocular vision system with ArUco marker is used to measure and calculate the relative coordinates of markers in the camera coordinate system. Then the UAV contour fitting is conducted in order to obtain the real-time position and orientation of this mobile target. The effectiveness of the novel UAV landing hexapod robot system based on ArUco marker combined with sparse optical flow is verified through the UAV capture experiment.

This article proposes a trajectory generator for quadcopter to intercept moving ground vehicle. For this air–ground interaction problem, we formulate the trajectory generation problem as quadratic dynamic programming in a moving-horizon scheme based on the quadcopter kinematics and observation to ground vehicle. The closed-form solution of quadratic dynamic programming in each iteration enables this algorithm a real-time replanning performance. Thereafter, segmented trajectory rule, inspired from commercial flight landing regular, is implemented to guarantee smoothness in approaching and interception to moving ground target from comparably far origin. Our established algorithm is verified through both simulations and experiments.

The trajectory or moving-target tracking feature is desirable, because it can be used in various applications where the usefulness of UAVs is already proven. Tracking moving targets can also be applied in scenarios of cooperation between mobile ground-based and flying robots, where mobile ground-based robots could play the role of mobile landing pads. This article presents a novel proposition of an approach to position-tracking problems utilizing artificial potential fields (APF) for quadcopter UAVs, which, in contrast to well-known APF-based path planning methods, is a dynamic problem and must be carried out online while keeping the tracking error as low as possible. Also, a new flight control is proposed, which uses roll, pitch, and yaw angle control based on the velocity vector. This method not only allows the UAV to track a point where the potential function reaches its minimum but also enables the alignment of the course and velocity to the direction and speed given by the velocity vector from the APF. Simulation results present the possibilities of applying the APF method to holonomic UAVs such as quadcopters and show that such UAVs controlled on the basis of an APF behave as non-holonomic UAVs during 90° turns. This allows them and the onboard camera to be oriented toward the tracked target. In simulations, the AR Drone 2.0 model of the Parrot quadcopter is used, which will make it possible to easily verify the method in real flights in future research.

Background: Adequate seal for thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) commonly requires landing in zone 2, but can prove to be challenging due to the tortuous and angulated anatomy of the region. Objectives: Our objective was to determine the proximal landing accuracy of zone 2-targeted TEVARs following carotid-subclavian revascularization (CSR) and its impact on clinical outcomes. Methods: Retrospective review of patients that underwent CSR for zone 2 endograft delivery at a tertiary institute between January 2008 and March 2018 was conducted. Technical outcomes were assessed by examining the incidence of intraoperative corrective maneuvers, 1a endoleaks and reinterventions. Distance to target and incidence of LSA stump filling were examined as radiographic markers of landing accuracy. Results: Zone 2-targeted TEVAR with CSR was performed in 53 patients for treatment of dissections (49%), aneurysms (30%) or trauma (21%). Nine (17%) cases required intraoperative corrective procedures: 5 (9%) proximal cuffs due to type 1a endoleak and 4 (8%) left common carotid artery (LCCA) stenting due to inadvertent coverage. Cases performed using higher resolution hybrid fluoroscopy machine compared to mobile C-arm were associated with increased proximal cuff use (OR 8.8; 95% CI 1.2-62.4). Average distance between the proximal edge of the covered graft to LCCA was 8 ± 1 mm and larger distances were not associated with higher rates of 1a endoleak. Twenty-eight (53%) cases of antegrade LSA stump filling were noted on follow-up imaging, but were not associated with higher rates of reinterventions (OR 0.8, 95% CI [0.2-4.6]). Three (6%) patients had a stroke within 30 days and 4 (8%) patients expired within 1 month. Intraoperative corrective maneuvers, post-operative 1a endoleak and reinterventions were not associated with higher rates of stroke or mortality. Conclusion: Using current endografts and imaging modalities, zone 2-targeted TEVARs have suboptimal technical accuracy.

The compensation of magnetic and electromagnetic interference generated by drones is one of the main problems related to drone-borne magnetometry. The simplest solution is to suspend the magnetometer at a certain distance from the drone. However, this choice may compromise the flight stability or introduce periodic data variations generated by the oscillations of the magnetometer. We studied this problem by conducting two drone-borne magnetic surveys using a prototype system based on a cesium-vapor magnetometer with a 1000 Hz sampling frequency. First, the magnetometer was fixed to the drone landing-sled (at 0.5 m from the rotors), and then it was suspended 3 m below the drone. These two configurations illustrate endmembers of the possible solutions, favoring the stability of the system during flight or the minimization of the mobile platform noise. Drone-generated noise was filtered according to a CWT analysis, and both the spectral characteristics and the modelled source parameters resulted analogously to that of a ground magnetic dataset in the same area, which were here taken as a control dataset. This study demonstrates that careful processing can return high quality drone-borne data using both flight configurations. The optimal flight solution can be chosen depending on the survey target and flight conditions.

Le projet de thèse consiste à développer une solution pour l'atterrissage d'un drone à voilure fixe de configuration classique dans une zone limitée. Le principal défi consiste à réduire la vitesse de l'avion à une phase minimale pendant le vol, à l'aide d'algorithmes de contrôle automatique. La réduction de la vitesse d'un drone à voilure fixe s'effectue en augmentant son angle d'attaque, ce qui implique un freinage par la force de traînée. Cependant, cette manœuvre est critique pour un avion conventionnel, parce que si son angle d'attaque augmente au-delà de l'angle de décrochage, le véhicule peut perdre sa contrôlabilité, c'est-à-dire qu'il est possible que le véhicule aérien s'effondre et que sa structure soit endommagée. Le modèle mathématique est une représentation d'équations qui décrit le comportement de la dynamique du système. En considérant plusieurs variables pour obtenir une meilleure approximation de la dynamique du système, dans notre cas le véhicule à voilure fixe, la conception des stratégies de contrôle sera plus difficile et plus complexe. Dans ce travail de recherche, nous utiliserons un modèle mathématique non linéaire car les effets de décrochage peuvent être inclus par des approximations mathématiques du moment de tangage, des forces de portance et de traînée. Cela nous permet d'obtenir une meilleure performance des lois de contrôle pour la navigation autonome du drone à voilure fixe. L'une des limites des véhicules à voilure fixe est qu'ils atterrissent dans des espaces de dimensions réduites et que le pourcentage de dommages subis par leur structure est élevé. En outre, les perturbations extérieures et l'inexpérience des pilotes augmentent le risque de dommages. Il est bien connu qu'il est très difficile de satisfaire aux conditions d'une piste d'atterrissage. Par conséquent, la communauté scientifique s'est efforcée de mettre au point des solutions pour l'atterrissage dans des zones limitées. Dans la littérature, on trouve quelques solutions basées sur des véhicules hybrides et des systèmes de récupération. Les véhicules hybrides consistent à modifier la structure d'un véhicule à voilure fixe. Les moteurs sont répartis stratégiquement pour obtenir une configuration de véhicule multirotor, offrant certaines caractéristiques telles que le décollage et l'atterrissage verticaux. Cependant, ces actionneurs augmentent la masse du véhicule, la consommation d'énergie (ce qui réduit la durabilité du vol), la probabilité de défaillance, le coût d'acquisition, de réparation et d'entretien. Notre objectif dans ce travail de recherche est de concevoir et de valider des stratégies de contrôle pour l'atterrissage d'un drone à voilure fixe dans un espace limité. Les stratégies de contrôle ont été conçues selon deux approches : la première est basée sur le développement de manœuvres pour un drone à voilure fixe afin de réduire la vitesse à une phase minimale pendant le vol. Dans la deuxième approche, nous avons travaillé sur les stratégies de contrôle pour l'atterrissage d'un drone à voilure fixe sur un véhicule terrestre en mouvement. Une stratégie de contrôle a été proposée pour réduire la vitesse du drone à voilure fixe au minimum afin d'être capturé par un système de récupération. La stratégie de contrôle a été divisée en trois étapes de vol : dans la première étape, l'avion s'aligne dans le plan x-y tandis qu'il est conduit à une altitude souhaitée pour effectuer un vol de croisière. L'étape suivante consiste en un vol ascendant, axé sur le suivi d'une référence angulaire basée sur une trajectoire phugoïde. Cette trajectoire implique une augmentation de l'angle d'attaque jusqu'à l'angle de décrochage de l'avion. Ainsi, la vitesse aérienne obtient une réduction maximale dans des conditions sûres, permettant au drone d'être capturé par le système de récupération. Toutefois, si le drone n'est pas capturé par le système de récupération, une stratégie de contrôle est appliquée pour rétablir le vol de l'aéronef
The development of this thesis consists of designing some control strategies that allow a fixedwing drone with classical configuration to perform a safe landing in a limited area. The main challenge is to reduce the aircraft’s airspeed avoiding stall conditions. The developed control strategies are focused on two approaches: the first approach consists of the designing airspeed reduction maneuvers for a fixed-wing vehicle to be captured by a recovery system and for a safe landing at a desired coordinate. The next approach is focused on landing a fixed-wing drone on a moving ground vehicle. A dynamic landing trajectory was designed to lead a fixedwing vehicle to the position of a ground vehicle, reaching its position in a defined distance. Moreover, this trajectory was used in a cooperative control design. The control strategy consists of the synchronization of both vehicles to reach the same position at a desired distance. The aerial vehicle tracks the dynamic landing trajectory, and the ground vehicle controls its speed. In addition, we will propose a control architecture with a different focus, where the ground vehicle performs the tracking task of the aerial vehicle’s position in order to be captured. And, the drone’s task is to track a descending flight until the top of the ground vehicle. However, considering the speed difference between both vehicles. Therefore, we propose a new control architecture defining that the aircraft performs an airspeed reduction strategy before beginning its landing stage. The aircraft will navigate to a minimum airspeed, thus, allowing the ground vehicle to reach the fixed-wing drone’s position by increasing its speed. The control laws of each strategy were determined by developing the Lyapunov stability analysis, thus, the stability is guaranteed in each flight stage. Finally, the control strategies were implemented on prototypes allowing us to validate their performance and obtain satisfactory results for safe landing of a fixed-wing drone with classical configuration

In this thesis we investigate the problem of landing a helicopter autonomously on a mobile platform by designing controllers for the attitude- and translational dynamics in parallel. A mathematical model of the helicopter, in form of general 6-degrees-of-freedom rigid-body dynamics with application-specific actuations, is developed. A linearized model is used in order to make a landing problem more tractable, which is also rather reasonable under landing constraints, where small angle- and velocity approximations are valid. The inputs used for the attitude controller are the tail rotor thrust and the tip-path-plane angles. Then, a form of cascaded control is adopted for the translational dynamics, in which the inputs are the Euler angles together with the main rotor thrust. The resulting control system is tested by MATLAB simulations against a smooth position reference path, with satisfying results. For the landing scenario, a trajectory planning strategy based on linear model predictive control (MPC) is adopted. The cascaded control system is then used to track the translational reference trajectory. The translational reference trajectory is chosen such that the attitude dynamics is adapted to the attitude of the platform at touch-down.
Den här uppsatsen undersöker problemet att autonomt landa en modellhelikopter på en mobil plattform genom att använda olika regulatorer för attityd- och translationsdynamiken. Den matematiska beskrivningen av helikoptern utgår från dynamiken för en stel kropp med 6 frihetsgrader. Eftersom landning kan genomföras med låga hastigheter och små vinklar används en linjär modell för att göra problemet mer lätthanterligt. Insignalerna till systemet är kraften från stjärtrotorn och lutningsvinklarna av huvudrotorns Tip-Path-Plane. En kaskadregulator används för att styra translationssystemet med eulervinklarna och kraften från huvudrotorn, som insignaler. Regulatorn testas i en MATLAB-simulering mot en glatt referensbana med godkända resultat. För landingsproceduren används en banplaneringsstrategi som bygger på linjär prediktiv reglering (PR). Kaskadregulatorn används sedan för att följa translationsreferenserna, vilka blir valda så att även attitydsystemet anpassas efter plattformens attityd i landningsögonblicket.

The market for vertical takeoff and landing unmanned aerial vehicles, VTOL UAVs, is growing rapidly. To reciprocate the demand of VTOL UAVs in offshore applications, CybAero has developed a novel concept for landing on moving objects called MALLS, Mobile Automatic Launch and Landing Station. MALLS can tilt its helipad and is supposed to align to either the horizontal plane with an operator adjusted offset or to the helicopter skids. Doing so, eliminates the gyroscopic forces otherwise induced in the rotordisc as the helicopter is forced to change attitude when the skids align to the ground during landing or when standing on a jolting boat with the rotor spun up. This master’s thesis project is an attempt to get the concept of MALLS closer to a quarter scale implementation. The main focus lies on the development of the measurement methods for achieving the references needed by MALLS, the hori- zontal plane and the plane of the helicopter skids. The control of MALLS is also discussed. The measurement methods developed have been proved by tested implementations or simulations. The theories behind them contain among other things signal ﬁltering, Kalman ﬁltering, sensor fusion and search algorithms. The project have led to that the MALLS prototype can align its helipad to the horizontal plane and that a method for measuring the relative attitude between the helipad and the helicopter skids have been developed. Also suggestions for future improvements are presented.

This work studies the use of an ultrasonic 3D positioning system in multicopter landing applications. Its aim is to develop a solution for autonomous landing of rotary wings systems on mobile platforms, especially boat decks using the positioning system developed by the French startup Internest. First, the position sensing algorithms will be improved so as to let them provide accurate relative position measurements in moving reference frames. Then a first implementation of a control algorithm based on PIDs will be considered, discussed and tested. Finally some improvements will be studied, with the use of trajectory planning and feedforward control, as well as the definition of a reference model. The whole work is led in an industrial R&D context, with the aim of developing simple but effective solutions that can easily be used in numerous applications, on a large variety of systems.

The use of autonomous UAV’s is a progressively expanding industry. This thesisfocuses on the landing procedure with the main goal to be independent of visualaids. That means that the landing site can be hidden from the air, the landingcan be done in bad weather conditions and in the dark. In this thesis the use ofradio signals is investigated as an alternative to the visual sensor based systems.A localization system is needed to perform the landing without knowing wherethe landing site is. In this thesis an Extended Kalman Filter (EKF) is derived andused for the localization, based on the received signal strength from a radio beaconat the landing site. There are two main goals that are included in the landing,to land as accurate and as fast as possible. To combine these two goals a simultaneoustrajectory optimization and target estimation problem is set up that can bepartially solved while flying. The optimal solution to this problem produces thepath that the UAV will travel to get the best target localization while still reachingthe target. It is shown that trying to move directly towards the estimated landingsite is not the best strategy. Instead, the optimal trajectory is a spiral that jointlyoptimizes the information from the sensors and minimizes the arrival time.

This thesis is part of an ongoing research conducted at the Naval Postgraduate School to achieve the autonomous shipboard landing of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV). Two main problems are addressed in this thesis. The first is to establish communication between the UAV's ground station and the Autonomous Landing Flight Control Computer effectively. The second addresses the design and implementation of an autonomous landing controller using classical control techniques. Device drivers for the sensors and the communications protocol were developed in ANSI C. The overall system was implemented in a PC104 computer running a real-time operating system developed by The Mathworks, Inc. Computer and hardware in the loop (HIL) simulation, as well as ground test results show the feasibility of the algorithm proposed here. Flight tests are scheduled to be performed in the near future.

At present, multiple mobile targets will be remote controlled in many remote control and telemetry system, in which multiple access technology will be applied. This paper proposes a communication scheme to remote control multiple mobile targets using Coded-Division Multiple Access(CDMA) technique. It's feasibility, advantage and shortcoming are analyzed. Moreover, the key techniques of Direct-Sequence Spread Spectrum(DS/SS) system, i.e. the correlation detection and delay lock-on techniques, are studied and stimulated on the experimental model. The results of theoretical analysis show that the CDMA system has the peculiar advantage over the conventional multiple access system, such as FDMA and TDMA.

Looking at the present demand for mobile services we can predict that there will be an explosive growth in the usage of mobile appliances in the future. But these mobile appliances suffer from significant problems related to storage restrictions and limited computing resources. However, the increased demand for mobile services has resulted in wide spread research to provide remote storage service for mobile appliance using iSCSI. The iSCSI protocol enables the block level I/O and high-capacity storage service over general IP networks. But iSCSI, in a client-server environment is very sensitive to latency (delay time) and when applied to the mobile appliance results in a rapid performance degradation when the mobile appliance (client) moves far away from the storage server. In this research, authors describe a new availability remote storage system called an intermediate storage server, which localizes the iSCSI target to the mobile appliance. Thus, when the client moves far away from the primary storage server will automatically get connected to the intermediate storage server rather than trying to establish connection with the primary storage server. This reduces the latency or delay time involved in contacting and accessing the resources from the storage server.

Abstract This project assists in building a robust control LiDAR scanning unit that helps aerial vehicles land autonomously. The LiDAR scans the terrain, detects static or dynamic obstacles, and helps target safe landing areas. The whole terrain scanning system uses a robust control system to control the LiDAR position to collect point clouds around the environment and use ICP (Iterative Closest Point) to create a 3D point cloud map. In the robust control system, IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) is used to control the servo to ensure the control system had an accurate target angle for the LiDAR scanning. MSAC algorithm is used in the 3D mapping to help the system detect flat areas for an aerial vehicle to land. This project also shows the different voxelization levels (1 × 1 and 5 × 5) of the flat surfaces and the maximum point to plane distance changed (0.05, 0.25, 1, and 10). Also, an exaggerated voxelization level (10 × 10) was investigated to get a rapid first-level estimation of flat surfaces. The results of the different values and comparisons are also noted and shared. This study is the variable resolution mapping and perception portion of our full-scale heterogeneous localization and mapping research project of Autonomous Mobile Robotics Research Group.

Texto completo da fonte

Resumo:

This study assesses the accessibility of mobile applications across twelve countries, including the USA, Vietnam, Turkey, Ireland, and South Korea. Our evaluation of 60 popular apps reveals a widespread failure to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG), with Vietnam exhibiting the highest average of 41.2 violations per app. These violations were particularly prevalent in essential areas such as touch target size and color contrast, critical for users with visual and motor impairments. Despite robust accessibility laws such as the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) in the USA and the European Accessibility Act (EAA) in the EU, our findings indicate a significant gap between these legal frameworks and their practical application. Our study highlights the urgent need for a multifaceted approach that includes strict enforcement, enhanced developer education with a focus on cross-cultural accessibility, and international cooperation. This research underscores the importance of integrating accessibility as a core component of digital infrastructure development to ensure mobile applications are truly accessible to all users.

This research empirically investigates the need for, and the effective design and content of, a proposed mobile application that is targeted at pedestrians and cyclists in Fresno County. The differential effect of the proposed mobile app name and colors on the target audience opinions was examined. Further, app content and features were evaluated for importance and the likelihood of use. This included design appeal, attractiveness, relevance, ease of navigation, usefulness of functions, personalization and customization, message recipients’ attitudes towards message framing, and intended behaviors related to pedestrian, cyclist, and motorist traffic safety practices. Design mobile application features tested included image aesthetics, coherence and organization, and memorability and distinction. Potential engagement with the mobile app was assessed via measuring the users’ perceived enjoyment while using the app. The behavioral intentions to adopt the app and likelihood to recommend the app were assessed. The willingness to pay for purchasing the app was measured. This research provided evidence that a mobile application designed for pedestrians and cyclists is needed, with high intentions for its adoption. Functions, such as Safety Information, Weather Conditions, Guide to Trails, Events for Walkers and Bikers, and Promotional Offers are deemed important by the target population. This research was conducted in an effort to increase active transportation mode utilization and to enhance the safety of vulnerable road users. The public, city administrators, transportation authorities, and policy makers shall benefit from the results of this study by adapting the design and the features that are proposed in this research and were found appealing and useful for the target vulnerable road user groups. The need of the proposed mobile application and its main functions are established, based on the results of this research, which propagates further steps of implementation by city administrators and transportation authorities.

Resumo:

This paper examines the potential role FinTech can play to support Surinames financial inclusion efforts. Financial technologyor “FinTech”describes the integration of technology into financial services to improve their use and delivery to customers. More importantly, it has the potential to meet the needs of those population segments that are not the main target of traditional financial services models. FinTech applications include mobile banking, mobile money, point-of-sale, e-commerce, and digital currencies. These solutions have contributed to financial inclusion, strengthening financial development, economic growth, poverty reduction, and socioeconomic development. We find that Suriname is making progress in promoting the development and use of FinTech. Still, there is room for further improvement, especially in fostering an enabling environment to harness FinTech opportunities, strengthening broader financial sector policies, addressing potential risks, promoting international collaboration, and addressing critical country-specific challenges.

Texto completo da fonte

Resumo:

Sublimation of ice is rate-controlled by vapor transport away from its outer surface and may have generated landforms on Mars. In ice-cemented ground (permafrost), the lag of soil particles remaining after ice loss decreases subsequent sublimation. Varying soil-ice ratios lead to differential lag development. Here we report 52 years of sublimation measurements from a permafrost tunnel near Fairbanks, Alaska, and constrain models of sublimation, diffusion through porous soil, and lag formation. We derive the first long-term in situ effective diffusion coefficient of ice-free loess, a Mars analog soil, of 9.05 × 10⁻⁶ m² s⁻¹, ~5× larger than past theoretical studies. Exposed ice-wedge sublimation proceeds ~4× faster than predicted from analogy to heat loss by buoyant convection, a theory frequently employed in Mars studies. Our results can be used to map near-surface ice-content differences, identify surface processes controlling landform formation and morphology, and identify target landing sites for human exploration of Mars.

Resumo:

Poly-,Per-fluorinated alkyl substances (PFAS) are versatile chemicals that were incorporated in a wide range of products. One of their most important use was in aqueous film-forming foams for fighting liquid fuel fires. PFAS compounds have recently been identified as potential environmental contaminants. In the United States there are hundreds of potential military sites with PFAS contamination. The ERDC designed and constructed a mobile treatment system to address small sites (250,000 gallons or less) and as a platform to field test new adsorptive media. The PFAS Effluent Treatment System (PETS) has cartridge filters to remove sediments and a granular activated carbon (GAC) media filter to remove organic compounds that might compete with PFAS in the ion exchange process, although it may also remove PFAS too. The last process is an ion exchange resin specifically designed to remove PFAS to a target level of 70 ng/L or less (equivalent to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Drinking Water Health Advisory). The system was tested at Hurlburt Field, a US Air Force facility in Florida and at Naval Support Activity (NSA) Mid-South in Millington, TN.

African governments are spending over 1US$bn per year on digital surveillance technologies which are being used without adequate legal protections in ways that regularly violate citizens’ fundamental human rights. This report documents which companies, from which countries, are supplying which types of surveillance technology to African governments. Without this missing detail, it is impossible to adequately design measures to mitigate and overcome illegal surveillance and violations of human rights. Since the turn of the century, we have witnessed a digitalisation of surveillance that has enabled the algorithmic automation of surveillance at a scale not previously imaginable. Surveillance of citizens was once a labour and time-intensive process. This provided a practical limit to the scope and depth of state surveillance. The digitalisation of telephony has made it possible to automate the search for keywords across all mobile and internet communications. For the first time, state surveillance agencies can do two things: (a) conduct mass surveillance of all citizens’ communications, and (b) micro-target individuals for in-depth surveillance that draws together in real-time data from mobile calls, short message service (SMS), internet messaging, global positioning system (GPS) location, and financial transactions. This report was produced by qualitative analysis of open-source data in the public domain. The information presented is drawn from a diverse range of sources, including open government data sets, export licence portals, procurement notices, civil society databases of surveillance contracts, press releases from surveillance companies, academic articles, reports, and media coverage. The research is organised using a typology of five categories of surveillance technology. We did not set out to detail every technology available, every company, or every supply contract. Instead, we document the main companies and countries selling digital surveillance technologies to African governments. Rather than focus on the technical functionality distinguishing each product offering, we highlight five of the most important types of surveillance technology: internet interception, mobile interception, social media surveillance, ‘safe city’ technologies for the surveillance of public spaces, and biometric identification technologies.
