description: UAV Positioning System

Description

This software implements an algorithm for optimal UAV placement in wireless communications scenarios. The system takes into account:

Building obstacles and their heights

Multiple User Equipment (UE) locations and their Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) requirements

Line-of-sight considerations using angle calculations

Power optimization for the UAV transmitter

The main features include:

Automatic calculation of minimum required transmission power

3D positioning that ensures line-of-sight with all UEs

Building obstacle avoidance

SNR requirement satisfaction for all connected UEs

User Manual

File Structure

obstacle - Contains building corner coordinates in format: x, y, height

Each line represents one corner of the building

Coordinates must be listed in order to form a valid polygon

UEs - Contains user equipment data in format: ID, x, y, z, SNR

ID: Unique identifier for each UE

x, y, z: 3D coordinates of the UE

SNR: Required Signal-to-Noise Ratio in dB

Usage Instructions

Setup Requirements

pip install numpy shapely gekko

 

Input File Preparation

Create an obstacle file with building coordinates

Create a UEs file with user equipment data

Place both files in a directory named UAVP

 

Running the System

python app.py

Output The system will output a tuple containing:

Optimal transmission power (PT) in dBm

Optimal UAV position [x, y, z]

Technical Notes

The system uses the GEKKO optimizer for solving the positioning problem

Line-of-sight is guaranteed through angle calculations

The algorithm iteratively increases transmission power until a valid solution is found

The UAV will always be positioned above the maximum building height

Constraints

All UEs must have clear line-of-sight to the UAV

The UAV must be positioned above the highest building

Signal strength must meet SNR requirements for all UEs

description: Die Sichtbarkeit von europäischer Wissenschaftsliteratur ist notwendige Voraussetzung für deren Rezeption im internationalen Kontext. Ein bibliographisches Nachweissystem psychologischer Fachliteratur auf der Basis moderner Suchtechnologie mit Fokus auf europäischen Werken kann einen wichtigen Beitrag dazu leisten. Mehrere europäische Institute stellen ihre bibliographischen Datenbestände zum Aufbau einer umfassenden europäischen Fachdatenbank für die Psychologie zur Verfügung. Die Bereitstellung bibliographischer Informationen aus unterschiedenen, multinationalen Quellen vermindert die Notwendigkeit der Suche in mehreren Datenbanken. Durch den Einsatz modernster Suchmaschinentechnologie werden die Ergebnisse selbst bei großen Datenmengen schnell gefunden und Verfeinerungen der Recherche sind einfach möglich. Damit gleicht sich die Bedienung verbreiteten Standards an und die Einarbeitung in eine neue Syntax ist nicht mehr notwendig. Durch den mehrsprachigen Zugriff soll die Attraktivität der Nutzung im europäischen Kontext steigen und Zugleich die Bereitstellung bibliographischer Informationen angeregt werden. Zur Erhöhung des Gebrauchswertes für das wissenschaftliche Arbeiten wird das Exportieren ausgewählter Treffer in gängige Literaturverwaltungssysteme möglich sein.

(ce spécimen avait été identifié auparavant B.? strobli par l’auteur, du fait de la coloration très légèrement assombrie des pattes postérieures).
B. chalybata est une espèce à vaste aire de répartition en Europe centrale et septentrionale. Dans notre pays, c’est une des espèces les plus répandues du genre Beris, abondante dans les collections et présente dans toutes les régions depuis les altitudes les plus basses jusqu’en montagne. Rozkošný (1982) mentionne sa présence jusqu’à 2000 m dans les Alpes, mais elle peut vivre encore plus haut, comme le montre le spécimen de Zermatt mentionné ci-dessus qui établit, à 2600–2700 m, un nouveau record d’altitude pour cette espèce.

D’après Stuke (2004), B. hauseri est une espèce holarctique qui semble avoir une plus vaste répartition en Europe centrale que B. strobli. L’espèce est en particulier également présente à basse altitude, dans les plaines («im Flachland»). C’est apparemment le cas en Suisse, où elle est cependant présente aussi dans le Jura jusqu’à près de 1200 m d’altitude, même dans les stations froides comme les tourbières.

description: Pesticides, while effective in controlling pests and boosting agricultural yields, pose significant negative effects on the environment and human health. Their widespread use can lead to soil and water contamination, harm non-target organisms, contribute to the development of pesticide-resistant pests, and raise concerns about the potential long-term impact on ecosystems. Electrochemical sensors are one of the leading technologies due to their ability to quickly determine and monitor pesticide levels in several matrices. With the advantages of electrochemical analysis and advanced structural/chemical properties of nanomaterials/biomaterials, advanced electrochemical sensors offer outstanding performance for specific pesticide detection. This is because nanomaterials contribute to the development of advanced (multi)functional electrochemical sensing platforms thanks to their tunable pore diameters, biocompatibility, high surface area and pre-concentration capabilities. This review comprehensively explores the contemporary applications and advantages of electrochemical methods for the sensitive determination of diphenyl ether herbicides, elucidating their pivotal role in modern analytical chemistry. Current uses and developments of electrochemical sensors are presented for practical applications in diphenyl ether herbicides detection and monitoring to end with some concluding remarks, perspectives, and trends.

description: Polyploidy is common among plants and can contribute to physiological and morphological differences, altering how plants respond to environmental changes, promoting genetic diversification and even species radiation. Quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides), a keystone species associated with high plant and animal diversity is frequently found in mixed diploid/triploid populations in the Intermountain West. Triploid aspen carries an extra chromosomal copy, whereas the diploid type contains two chromosomal copies. High mortality rates and widespread population declines in aspen are of increasing concern in the Intermountain West, and often ascribed to changing climates and drought stress events. The goal of this study was to better understand environmental factors influencing the distribution of triploid aspen population in the Intermountain West. Using restriction-site associated DNA sequencing (RAD-seq), a method used to identify thousands of genetic markers from a group of individuals, we examined the occurrence of diploid and triploid aspen populations at various spatial scales in relation to environmental variables associated with soil moisture content. Our results suggest that triploidy in aspen on the landscape is associated with environmental variables related to soil moisture and may be influenced by specific local variations in topography, climate, and precipitation patterns. Overall, we found that conditions associated with low soil moisture were associated with lower frequencies of triploid aspen. Our results suggest that triploid aspen clones may be more susceptible to mortality than diploid clones in the warmer, drier climates expected with climate change. We acknowledge, however, that there are many knowledge gaps regarding the generation and persistence of triploid aspen clones. Understanding the causes and consequences of triploidy in aspen will be important in predicting and managing aspen persistence in landscapes of the western U. S. under changing climate conditions.

description: Positive Psychology (PP) is a relatively new school of thought in Psychology, focusing on human strengths and virtues, and on improving well-being and quality of life. In its aim and scope, it bears special relation to the fields of Behavioral Medicine (BM) and Health Psychology (HP). Building upon a recent bibliometric analysis (Schui & Krampen, 2010), we trace the impact, PP had on these larger fields by evaluating the corresponding literature found in the PsycINFO-database.

Two species, N. haeussleri (Uchida, 1933) and N. striatus Momoi, 1970, have been recorded from Japan. In this study, I re-describe the former with new distributional data below. Momoi (1970) used the striation of T II for the separation of both species, while this character states varied (Konishi et al., 2014; in this study). Thus, taxonomic position of N. striatus should be revised in the future study. Japanese species can be distinguished by the following key.

description: Background: The use of natural products in cosmetics has become increasingly popular in recent years. One such natural product that has shown promise as a cosmetic ingredient is Ilex paraguariensis, also known as yerba mate.


Aim: to formulate an antioxidant hydrogel face mask using an organic, sustainably sourced, standardised water extract of yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis) as active ingredient.


Methods: Organic yerba mate was water-extracted at 40°C and 80°C. Theobromine, theophylline, caffeine, and various phenolic acids were quantified using RP-HPLC-UV analysis. Extracts were then evaluated for antioxidant activity (DPPH assay). A commercially available mask-making machines for home use was used to produce hydrogel masks based on marine collagen and these were analysed for active ingredient distribution (homogeneity).


Results: The differences between 40°C and 80°C water extracts of yerba mate. The content in phytochemicals ranged 0.02-1 mg/ml. The extract equivalence in chlorogenic acid (CA) according to the DPPH assay was 0.25 mgCA / mgextract. The hydrogel facial mask was successfully formulated with 0.1 mg/mL of standardised yerba mate extract. The content in phytochemicals within the gel varied most for caffeic acid and theobromine (approx. 20%) but was <10% for theophylline, caffeine, chlorogenic acid, ferulic acid, rutin, quercitrin, and quercetin.


Conclusion: Face masks “home” machines can deliver hydrogel face masks based on marine collagen can incorporate yerba mate (Ilex paraguariensis) water extracts as active ingredient without detriment of the consistency, texture and sensory characteristics with relatively homogenous concentrations of the active principles.

Three specimens are conserved in coll. Kȏno, the two syntypes and a third non–type specimen, a female identified as A. taiwanensis by Kȏno, labelled: (pr) Formosa / Shinchiku—18 / VII 1-30. / J. Sonan, / K. Miyake.
Lectotype (here designated). 1. Baibara. (pr) / Formosa (pr) / VII.13.1927 (hw) / K.-Kikuchi (pr); 2. (red label) Aclees (hw) / taiwanensis (hw) / ♂ Kȏno (hw) / Type (pr); 3.

The paralectotype was indicated as a male by Kȏno (1933), but it is a female. It does not bear any original red type label, but the locality label confirms that this is undoubtedly the second syntype.
Distribution. Taiwan, type locality (Kȏno 1933). Introduced to France (Perrin 1997, as Aclees cribratus) and Italy (Ciampolini et al. 2005 as A. cribratus; Benelli et al. 2014, as Aclees sp. cf. foveatus Voss, 1932).
Note. Recent research on the Aclees fauna of Taiwan has led to the discovery of an additional species, morphologically sister to A. taiwanensis and only differentiable with certainty based on the structure of the male genitalia and the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase 1 sequence (Meregalli et al., in preparation).
