Yet there are many different modes of flight among vertebrates and this thesis focuses mainly on the flapping flight of bats and intermittent flight of birds, as well as compares some of the factors conce
Homogeneous charge compression ignition (HCCI) is more efficient and produces significantly less NOx emissions compared to spark ignitions. Using an exhaust recompression strategy to achieve HCCI, however, produces cycle-to-cycle coupling which makes the problem of controlling combustion phasing more difficult. In the past, a linear feedback controller designed with a single linearized model is ef
Looking ahead, the quest for environmental sustainability may turn out to be the most important political challenge of the twenty-first century. Though consensus is growing about some of the policy objectives like climate stability, political attitudes to these issues remain highly contested. Political parties seem to differ on both ontological assessments (how severe are the problems) and remedia

Three different kinds of attention is discerned: scanning, attention attra
