How humans fly
This paper is devoted to the general problem of reconstructing the cost from the observation of trajectories, in a problem of optimal control. It is motivated by the following applied problem, concerning HALE drones: one would like them to decide by themselves for their trajectories, and to behave at least as a good human pilot. This applied question is very similar to the problem of determinin...
متن کاملHow to Protect Fly Photoreceptors
December 2006 | Volume 4 | Issue 12 | e418 Most governments around the world set conservation policy based on the assumption that resource exploitation and species protection can co-exist in the same place. These policies have led to Orwellian “marine protected areas” that host commercial fi shing operations, leading one to wonder who’s protecting whom. A new study reveals the danger of this ap...
متن کاملHow Humans Adapt
"This ancient pattern of restrained reproduction appears optimal for the production of healthy, intelligent young. A return to such a pattern after nearly 10,000 years of high fertility is not in opposition to human nature or reproductive biology. It would, in fact, be most compatible with the patterns of parental investment and reproductive biology shaped by millions of years of evolutionary h...
متن کاملHow High Can The U-CAS Fly?
The U-CAS is a spinning magnetized top that is levitated in a static magnetic field. The field is produced by a permanent magnet base, positioned below the hovering top. In this paper we derive upper and lower bounds for hm–the maximum hovering height of this top. We show that the bounds are of the form al0 where a is a dimensionless number ranging from about 1 to 12, depending on the constrain...
متن کاملHow Does a Fruit Fly Say “Ouch”?
Fruit flies are an ideal animal for biological research. Fruit flies can grow quickly in the lab, and we can study many fruit flies at the same time. The fruit fly has an outer layer, just like the human skin, to protect itself from injury or damage. If humans and fruit flies respond to injury in similar ways, then we can use fruit flies to discover new steps to improve human health. Using smal...
