Co-Optimization of Vibration Suppression and Data Efficiency in Robotic Manipulator Dynamic Modeling by Xiaowei Han, Kunru Wu, Nanmu Hui

“…First, a joint excitation trajectory is designed using a fifth-order Fourier series with zero boundary conditions to ensure sufficient excitation of system dynamics. Then, a linear regression formulation of the manipulator’s structural dynamics is established, and the BLS network is employed to model the unstructured residuals—primarily arising from nonlinear friction—with high precision. …”

Impact of mixed plantation strategies on the nutrient concentrations of green and senescent leaves and their nutrient resorption efficiencies in temperate forests of the Loess Hill... by Senbao Lu, Senbao Lu, Senbao Lu, Senbao Lu, Yunming Chen, Yunming Chen, Yunming Chen, Jordi Sardans, Jordi Sardans, Josep Peñuelas, Josep Peñuelas

“…In 2022, we analyzed N and phosphorus (P) concentrations in green (GLNC, GLPC) and senescent leaves (SLNC, SLPC), resorption efficiencies (NRE and PRE), and relative resorption efficiency (RRE) in mixtures of R. pseudoacacia × A. davidiana and R. pseudoacacia × A. sibirica and monocultures of three species, considering tree structure and topsoil (0-20 cm) properties. One-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s test showed that senescent leaves nutrient concentrations for R. pseudoacacia and Student’s t test that green and senescent leaves of A. davidiana and A. sibirica were significantly greater in mixed stands than monocultures. …”
