SMART-OC: A Real-time Time-risk Optimal Replanning Algorithm for Dynamic Obstacles and Spatio-temporally Varying Currents
Typical marine environments are highly complex with spatio-temporally varying currents and dynamic obstacles, presenting significant challenges to Unmanned Surface Vehicles (USVs) for safe and efficient navigation. Thus, the USVs need to continuously adapt their paths with real-time information to avoid collisions and follow the path of least resistance to the goal via exploiting ocean currents. In this regard, we introduce a novel algorithm, called Self-Morphing Adaptive Replanning Tree for dy…

«Milei has dashed his ship of state against the rocks, quite simply, because he followed the cracked compass called libertarianism. Libertarianism doesn’t work. Its core assumptions aren’t true. It’s the intellectual equivalent of huffing paint. But the pro-capitalist press outside #Argentina, for their part, ignored Milei’s obvious flaws and hyped him up because they wanted him to be the real deal.»
The article shows how other countries want to run off that cliff too…

Had a phenomenal dinner at Akoko, a fine dining West African restaurant in London. French cooking and saucing techniques with Senegalese, Nigerian, and Ghanaian flavors. Also lovely front of house.
Very exciting meal, one of the best I've had in years. Run by Aji Akokomi, current chef is Mutaro Balde. These flavors are terrific and don't normally get the fine dining treatment, a real pleasure to enjoy.
Everything was great but our favorite dish was thin ribbons of squid in a sauce with coriander and a meaningful chile heat.

Beyond the Carnot limit: work extraction via an entropy battery
We explore the consequences of generalized thermodynamics, as interpreted from the perspective of information theory, on an ensemble's capacity to extract energetic work. We demonstrate that by utilizing unitary heat engines of different kinds, we can capitalize on the full entropy capacity of the ensemble across multiple conserved quantities. This leads to the extraction of energetic work with efficiencies surpassing the standard Carnot efficiency limit, all the while running at maximum power.…

Btw, there's absolutely no reason why these types of sites should take longer than a second or so to interactivity on a current-ish computer with reasonable internet connection; especially with a primed cache.

Statistics of Current and Vorticity Structures in Relativistic Turbulence
Coherent structures created through turbulent cascades play a key role in energy dissipation and particle acceleration. In this work, we investigate both current and vorticity sheets in 3D particle-in-cell simulations of decaying relativistic turbulence in pair plasma by training a self-organizing map to recognize these structures. We subsequently carry out an extensive statistical analysis to reveal their geometric and structural properties. This analysis is systematically applied across a ran…

Spin Fluctuations-induced Unconventional Transverse Spin Current in Spin Degenerate Antiferromagnet
Modern magnetic memory technology requires unconventional transverse spin current to achieve deterministic switching of perpendicular magnetization. Spin current in antiferromagnets (AFMs) has been long thought to be trivial as nonmagnets. Recently, a class of spin-splitting AFMs has been shown to be able to generate unconventional spin current for spin-orbit torque (SOT) applications. However, such AFMs requires specific symmetry breaking, and have been largely restricted by the limited materi…

Imperfect Competition in Markets for Short-Circuit Current Services
An important limitation of Inverter-Based Resources (IBR) is their reduced contribution to Short-Circuit Current (SCC), as compared to that of Synchronous Generators (SGs). With increasing penetration of IBR in most power systems, the reducing SCC poses challenges to a secure system operation, as line protections may not trip when required. In order to address this issue, the SCC ancillary service could be procured via an economic mechanism, aiming at securing adequate SCC on all buses. However…

Currently deciding if I want to carefully glue something in place from the outside of an enclosure or just squirt a whole stick of hot glue on the inside of an enclosure.
