The performance of road vehicles degrades when driving in adverse weather conditions. Weather testing for vehicles is important to understand the impacts of precipitation on vehicle performance, such as driver visibility, autonomous sensor signal, tire traction, and structural integrity due to corrosion, to ensure safety. This tutorial summarizes t...

Light Detection and Ranging (Lidar) is a kind of active sensor that emits a laser pulse and primarily measures the time of flight of the returning pulse and uses it to construct a 3D point cloud of the scene around the lidar sensor. The constructed point cloud is an essential asset for the control of autonomous vehicles, and especially today, an es...

In 2010, water levels at Lake Kariba were so high that the Kariba Dam had to be opened to prevent flooding. By January 2023, capacity at the world’s largest artificial lake, which straddles the Zimbabwe–Zambia border, had plunged to just 2 percent. Water levels have risen slightly since then, but the lake’s wild fluctuations in volume have sparked ...

Au Sénégal, l’agriculture est majoritairement pluviale et fortement dépendante de services météorologiques. Ainsi, toute information sur la pluviométrie à venir est importante pour les cultivateurs afin d’anticiper l’arrivée tardive des pluies ou d’années particulièrement sèches. En pays sereer (région de Fatick), les Saltigui (devins) participent ...

Rationale With more frequent and intense precipitation events across the globe due to a changing climate, there is a need to understand the relationship between precipitation and respiratory health. Precipitation may trigger asthma exacerbations, but little is known about how precipitation affects lung function and airway inflammation in early adol...

Autonomous robot navigation is the subject of research in many disciplines. In this paper, we discuss the path planning method for obstacle avoidance based on the limit cycle, which has been shown to be effective in both static and dynamic environments. We focus the control architecture known as Limit Cycle, which generates robot trajectories defin...

Published online: 08 Feb 2023 / Erratic rainfall, high evapotranspiration rates and droughts are major factors limiting crop production in semi-arid areas. Tied ridges that have crossed ties within the furrow are among the physical soil and water conservation measures. During the 2018/19 and 2019/20 seasons, we examined the efficacy of repaired tie...
