Abstract:

Small USVs are usually equipped with a low-cost navigation sensor suite consisting of a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receiver and a magnetic compass. Unfortunately, the magnetic compass is highly susceptible to electromagnetic disturbances. Hence, it should not be used in safety-critical autopilot systems. A gyrocompass, however, is highly reliable, but it is too expensive for most USV systems. It is tempting to compute the heading angle by using two GNSS antennas on the same receiver. Unfortunately, for small USV systems, the distance between the antennas is very small, requiring

The debate surrounding free will and moral responsibility is one of the most intransigent debates in contemporary philosophy - but it does not have to be. At its heart, the free will debate is a metaethical debate - a debate about the meaning of certain moral terms - free will, moral responsibility, blameworthiness, praiseworthiness. Compatibilists argue that these concepts are compatible with wholly deterministic world, while incompatibilists argue that these concepts require indeterminism, or multiple possible futures. However, compatibilists and incompatibilists do not disagree on everythin

The inaugural Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS)® course was run in the UK in 1988 and now over 50 countries worldwide run an ATLS® programme and over a million doctors have been trained. In the early days of ATLS®, its message was ground-breaking. It introduced the ABCDE approach, the generic skills of the trauma team and goal directed care. At the time, this message was at significant odds with the accepted model of history, examination, differential diagnosis, investigation, refinement of the differential and then treatment. It is a testament to the effect that the ATLS® programme has had

AbstractPath-following control systems for ships can be designed using both heading and course angle autopilots in conjunction with a proportional line-of-sight (LOS) guidance law.

Unfortunately, the gyrocompass is an expensive device, and smaller vessels and boats cannot afford to use this as the primary device for steering.

Abstract In this study, a method is proposed to derive ocean surface current conditions using only information available through AIS – mainly speed over ground (SOG), course over ground (COG) and vessel heading. This method allows the mapping of current conditions over large areas, in doing so gives seafarers better awareness and advance warning of local environmental conditions. This also helps in route planning and management of voyage-related resources. In the proposed method, current speeds and directions are solved through a system of equations containing the resolved SOG, COG and heading

Abstract:

Studies of snow virga precipitation are rare. In this study, we investigated data from a vertically pointing Doppler Micro Rain Radar (MRR) in Bern, Switzerland, from 2008 to 2013 for snow virga precipitation events. The MRR data were reprocessed using the radar data processing algorithm of Garcia-Benardi et al., which allows the reliable determination of the snow virga precipitation rate. We focus on a long-lasting snow virga event from 17 March 2013, supported by atmospheric reanalysis data and atmospheric back trajectories. The snow virga was associated with a wind shear carrying moist air

Abstract:

A short-term rapid subsidence event occurred in the Bi Guiyuan community in Balitai Town, Tianjin City, leading to the tilting of high-rise buildings and the emergency evacuation of over 3000 residents. In response to this incident, InSAR (Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar) technology was swiftly employed to monitor the subsidence in the area before and after the event. Our observations indicate that the region had maintained stability for 8 months prior to the incident. However, over the course of the 15-day event, the ground experienced more than 10mm of subsidence. By integrating the

Abstract. Solar disturbances, depending on the orientation of the interplanetary magnetic field, typically result in perturbations of the geomagnetic field as observed by magnetometers on the ground. Here, the geomagnetic field's horizontal component, as measured by the ground-based observatory-standard magnetometer at Tromsø (70° N, 19° E) is examined for signatures of complexity. 25 year-long 10 s resolution datasets are analysed, but for fluctuations with timescales less than 1 day. Quantile-quantile (Q-Q) plots are employed first, revealing the fluctuations are better represented by Cauchy

The Supreme Court’s decision resolved a disagreement on this point among lower courts in the United States. The Court’s decision will have no effect on international arbitration agreements in which the parties did not seek to expand judicial review. But it seems highly unlikely that courts will enforce provisions of arbitration a

Abstract We present a method of conducting data-driven simulations of solar active regions and flux emergence with the MURaM radiative magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) code. The horizontal electric field that is derived from the full velocity and magnetic vectors is implemented at the photospheric (bottom) boundary to drive the induction equation. The energy equation accounts for thermal conduction along magnetic fields, optically thin radiative loss, and heating of coronal plasma by viscous and resistive dissipation, which allows for a realistic presentation of the thermodynamic properties of coron

Accurate ship trajectory prediction is crucial for real-time vessel position tracking and maritime safety management.

Moreover, they often overlook correlations among multivariate dynamic features such as longitude (LON), latitude (LAT), speed over ground (SOG), and course over ground (COG), which are essential for precise trajectory forecasting.

The use of radar information for collision avoidance is common, however it is effective only for constant values of ship motion parameters. As information delays or information errors occur, it is reasonable to supplement the information derived from radar with another information system. An ideal system should operate automatically and continuously. A system that appears to be suitable to provide this kind of information is the Automatic Identification System (AIS), which may be classified as a radio communication system that uses radio waves to transmit data with regard to ship motion parame

Therefore, it is necessary to fully utilize the multi-dimensional information from AIS data when utilizing ship trajectory classification methods. Here, we propose a ship trajectory classification m
