Abstract: The wind deflection of overhead contact lines (OCLs) challenges the stable and safe operation of electrified railways. The steady wind causes the static deflection of the contact line, while ...

Traditionally, classical methods of structural analysis such as slope-deflection and moment distribution methods (Cross method) are used for primary analysis of structures and also controlling the ...

These days, large language models can handle increasingly complex tasks, writing complex code and engaging in sophisticated reasoning. But when it comes to four-digit multiplication, a task taught in ...

I have never tried a house-tidying trick that I love as much as the Ski Slope Organizing Method. I first tested it three years ago, and it is the only one that I've come back to time and again to help ...

Scientists have issued a chilling update on the 'city-killer' asteroid heading towards the moon. Asteroid 2024 YR4, a 220-foot (67m) 'city-killer', currently has a four per cent chance of hitting the ...

Abstract: Extrinsic calibration is a fundamental prerequisite for the effective combined use of light detection and ranging (LiDAR) and inertial measurement units (IMUs). However, most existing ...

Your browser does not support the audio element. But then came questions — What’s a token? Should I use cookies or API keys? Why are there so many options just to ...

Many people still see artificial intelligence as something distant, futuristic, or overly technical—something that requires deep knowledge of coding or advanced computing to be useful. However, AI ...

ABSTRACT: This study presents a novel method to evaluate the safety of open-pit slopes by means of three-dimensional numerical modeling with the finite difference method. The method presented here ...

摘要: Judicial Precedent is a cardinal aspect of administration of justice that ensures the certainty of case laws. Certainty of judicial positions removes vagaries and engenders specificity in the ...
