Natal dispersal, home range and habitat use of hatchlings of the Mona Island iguana (Cyclura cornuta stejnegeri)
(Koninklijke Brill NV,, 2007)
In the last two decades our knowledge of the biology of the highly threatened rock iguanas (Cyclura) has been expanding. However, most studies have focused on the adults and none has been conducted to document the biology ...
Transmission expansion planning via a constructive heuristic algorithm in restructured electricity industry
(2013-12-01)
The transmission expansion planning problem in modern power systems is a large-scale, mixed-integer, nonlinear and non-convex problem. this paper presents a new mathematical model and a constructive heuristic algorithm ...
Vibration control in truss structures using piezoelectric stack actuator and LMI approach
(2008-01-01)
The recent years have seen the appearance of innovative system for acoustic and vibration attenuation, most of them integrating new actuator technologies. In this sense, the study of algorithms for active vibrations control ...
BUILDING ROOF BOUNDARY EXTRACTION FROM LiDAR AND IMAGE DATA BASED ON MARKOV RANDOM FIELD
(Copernicus Gesellschaft Mbh, 2017-01-01)
In this paper a method for automatic extraction of building roof boundaries is proposed, which combines LiDAR data and high-resolution aerial images. The proposed method is based on three steps. In the first step aboveground ...
Injetividade de apicações do Rn
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), 2015-02-27)
We provide conditions on the Jacobian matrix Jf of a C1 map f : S ! Rn in order that f is injective in a convex set S Rn. The rst result states that if Jf (x) is a positivede nite matrix for every x 2 S, then f is injective. ...
Condições de otimalidade para controle ótimo via formalismo de Dubovitskii-Milyutin
(Universidade Estadual Paulista (Unesp), 2016-03-03)
The purpose of this work is the study of necessary and sufficient conditions of optimality for optimal control problem including the study of the Maximum Principle and generalized convexity. The necessary conditions given ...
Survival, dispersal and reproduction of headstarted Mona Island iguanas, Cyclura cornuta stejnegeri
(Koninklijke Brill NV, 2007)
The endemic Mona Island Iguana, Cyclura cornuta stejnegeri, is considered endangered, and exhibits relatively low population numbers and reduced recruitment of juveniles to adults. A headstarting program was initiated ...
Home range and habitat selection by the tropical screech-owl in a Brazilian savanna
(Raptor Research Foundation Inc, 2014-06-01)
The Tropical Screech-Owl (Megascops choliba) is a small nocturnal raptor that uses a large range of habitats throughout Brazil. Although it is one of the most abundant owls in the Neotropics, nothing has been published on ...
Interior-exterior point method with global convergence strategy for solving the reactive optimal power flow problem
(Elsevier B.V., 2015-03-01)
This paper proposes a predictor-corrector primal-dual modified log-barrier interior-exterior point method with global convergence and cubic fitting strategies for solving the Reactive Optimal Power Flow (ROPE) problem. The ...
Inverted critical adsorption of polyelectrolytes in confinement
(Royal Soc Chemistry, 2015-01-01)
What are the fundamental laws for the adsorption of charged polymers onto oppositely charged surfaces, for convex, planar, and concave geometries? This question is at the heart of surface coating applications, various ...
