Experimental Investigation into the Control and Load Alleviation Capabilities of Articulated Winglets by A. Gatto, P. Bourdin, M. I. Friswell

“…The philosophy of the concept centres around the use of active, in-flight adjustment of each wing's winglet dihedral angle, both as a primary means of aircraft roll control (single winglet actuation) and though smaller equal and simultaneous winglet deflections, tailor and alleviate main wing load. …”

Control ℒ2 / D by Miguel Ángel García-Alvarado, Guadalupe del Carmen Rodríguez-Jimenes, Irving Israel Ruiz-López, Jesús Carrillo-Ahumada

“…Se presenta la concepción formal del control geométrico paramétrico en ℒ2 / D, su interpretación en lenguaje natural, sus aplicaciones actuales y su análisis prospectivo. Con base en lo anterior, el objetivo del artículo es hacer extensivo el conocimiento del control ℒ2 / D a la comunidad académica de México y de habla hispana, comentar su principio de parsimonia (generar respuestas de control óptimo con un mínimo de acción de control) y plantear perspectivas de futuras aplicaciones como por ejemplo en la ingeniería biomédica.…”

Ecological and economic bases for development and implementation of carbon sequestration related climate projects in Russia by Yulia L. Zakirova, Anastasia V. Lazareva

“…The Russian Federation, which has committed itself to taking measures to mitigate climate change, has set a goal of achieving carbon neutrality by 2060 in two possible ways: through direct emissions reduction and carbon capture (sequestration), storage (deposition). The national carbon trading system being actively created in Russia allows the state to fulfill its international climate obligations, but at the same time act as an independent regulator in this area and proactively protect domestic producers from possible unfair competition and arbitrariness on the part of participants in the global carbon market.…”
