Resisting System: Britain, Buffon, And The Avoidance of Linnaeus

It is a commonplace of science (although less of the history of science) that Linnaeus definitively solved the vexing problems of taxonomy and nomenclature in the 18th century, thus freeing subsequent researchers to focus on more challenging problems.In fact the reception of the Linnaean system was slow and incomplete at the time, and much of his w

Atmospheric Disturbance Modelling for a Piloted Flight Simulation Study of Airplane Safety Envelope over Complex Terrain

A concept of a new energy management system synthesizing meteorological and orographic influences on airplane safety envelope was developed and implemented at the ZHAW Centre for Aviation.A corresponding flight simulation environment was built in a Research and Didactics Simulator (ReDSim) to test the first implementation of the cockpit display Nec

Regional Press and Censorship in the New Economic Policy Period (Saratov, Samara Regions and the German Autonomy)

The censorship process during the New Me Christmas Top Economic Policy Period was rather unbalanced due to the human factor.Up until 1928, certain stages of censoring the manuscript that started with initial reading and resulted in the approving mark on the typographical card, could be omitted, as the case of Saratov author L.A.Slovokhotov illustra

An improved random forest-Monte Carlo method and application for structural reliability analysis of A-type independent liquid tank support structure

ObjectivesIn response to the increasing depth of research and design on liquefied natural gas (LNG) ship structures, higher requirements are put forward for a reliability analysis method that can quickly and accurately evaluate uncertain factors.This paper proposes a method based on an improved Eggshell Membrane random forest-Monte Carlo method (RF
