We present compositions, including REEs determined by ion microprobe, of apatite and whitlockite in lunar rock assemblages rich in incompatible trace elements. Total concentrations of REE oxides in whitlockites range from 9-13 wt%, and those in apatites range from 0.15 to 1 wt%. Ratios of REE concentrations in whitlockite to those in coexisting apatite range from 10 to 60. The distribution of M...

Grayscale error di usion introduces nonlinear distortion (directional artifacts and false textures), linear distortion (sharpening), and additive noise. In color error di usion what color to render is a major concern in addition to nding optimal dot patterns. This article presents a survey of key methods for artifact reduction in grayscale and color error di usion. The linear gain model by Kite...

Converting the traction power of kites into electricity can be a low cost solution for wind energy. Reliable control of both trajectory and tether reeling is crucial. The present study proposes a modelling framework describing the dynamic behaviour of the interconnected system components, suitable for design and optimization of the control systems. The wing, bridle, airborne control unit and te...
