In every snake oil sale show - no matter how long it has been going on - comes the moment of truth.
The moment of truth is, ironically, not evidence that the advertised snake oil works.
No, the moment of truth happens when the salesman opens the bottle and chugs it down in one go. What happens if he doesn't do it, what happens if he only takes a sip and pours the rest down the drain?

Building Forest Inventories with Autonomous Legged Robots -- System, Lessons, and Challenges Ahead
Legged robots are increasingly being adopted in industries such as oil, gas, mining, nuclear, and agriculture. However, new challenges exist when moving into natural, less-structured environments, such as forestry applications. This paper presents a prototype system for autonomous, under-canopy forest inventory with legged platforms. Motivated by the robustness and mobility of modern legged robots, we introduce a system architecture which enabled a quadruped platform to autonomously navigate an…

These weight matrices are constructed from return data and standard multivariate GARCH model outputs (CCC, DCC, and GO-GARCH…

Self-assembly of polymers at liquid interfaces using non-covalent interactions has emerged as a promising technique to reversibly produce self-healing membranes. Besides the assembly process, it is also crucial to control the mechanical properties of these membranes. Here, we measure the interfacial rheological properties of PMAA-PPO (polymethacrylic acidpolypropylene oxide) polymer membranes assembled using hydrogen bonds at liquid-oil interfaces.
