The use of contracts to implement and manage healthy vending: best practice recommendations for effective and sustained interventions
Abstract Background Contracts can be an effective lever to implement and manage health-enabling food retail environments.However, guidance for the effective use of contracts in food retail settings is limited.The use of contracts to create healthy food vending environments is one area where policy attention has been focussed in high income countrie
Lidar Data Reduction for Unmanned Systems Navigation in Urban Canyon
This paper introduces a novel protocol for managing low altitude 3D aeronautical chart data to address the unique navigational challenges and collision risks associated with populated urban environments.Based on the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) 3D Tiles standard for geospatial data delivery, the proposed extension, called 3D Tiles Nav., uses a
Observation of the Energy Dependence of Primary and Secondary Cosmic Rays with the AMS Detector on the International Space Station
Precision study of cosmic nuclei provides detailed knowledge on the origin and propagation of cosmic rays.AMS is a multi-purpose high energy particle detector designed to measure and identify cosmic ray nuclei with unprecedented precision.It is able to provide precision studies of nuclei simultaneously to multi-TeV energies.In 7 years on the Space
Parametric and Internal Resonances of an Axially Moving Beam with Time-Dependent Velocity
The nonlinear vibration of a travelling beam subjected to principal parametric resonance in presence of internal resonance is investigated.The beam velocity is assumed to be comprised of a constant mean value along Futon Mattress with a harmonically varying component.The stretching of neutral axis introduces geometric cubic nonlinearity in the equa
