In order to reduce the cost of navigation training in the waters of ice zones and improve the effectiveness of the training process, a method for simulating sea ice fragmentation in an ice zone navigation simulator is proposed. The Voronoi diagram algori...

Generally, the high-fidelity finite element models of aero-engines comprise millions of degrees of freedom (DOFs). Although they can provide precise predictions of structural dynamics, the computational cost will be often unaffordable if appropriate dime...

The objective of this paper was to explore long-term costs for a single-family house in Sweden during its entire lifetime. In order to estimate the total costs, considering construction, replacement, operation, and end-of-life costs over the long term, t...

It is a long-standing goal to leverage silicon photonics through the combination of a low-cost advanced silicon platform with III-V-based active gain material. The monolithic integration of the III-V material is ultimately desirable for scalable integrat...

Ecosystem services (ES) often rely on biogeochemical cycles, but values associated with abiotic services are often ignored or underestimated. Ecosystem services from atmospheric magnesium (Mg2+) deposition are abiotic flows (wet, dry, and total), which c...

The complexity of quantifying ecosystem services in monetary terms has long been a challenging issue for economists and ecologists. Many case specific valuation studies have been carried out in various parts of the World. Yet, a coherent review on the va...
