Birds still share many traits with their dinosaur ancestors, making them the best living group to reconstruct certain aspects of non-avian theropod biology.Bipedal, digitigrade locomotion and parasagittal hindlimb movement are some of those inherited traits.Living birds, however, gymnastics wall decals maintain an unusually crouched hindlimb postur
With the introduction of global navigation satellite systems (GNSSs) in aviation, there has been increased dependency on GNSS position.Multi-constellation GNSS services and equipment will remain a solution for many aircraft positions in safety.Multi-constellation GNSS can improve robustness and navigation performance.Therefore, advanced receiver au
Topography is a critical element in the hydrological response of a drainage basin and its availability in the form of digital elevation models (DEMs) has advanced the modeling of hydrological and hydraulic processes.However, progress experienced in these fields may stall, as intrinsic characteristics of free DEMs may limit new findings, while at th
The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of two categories of earthquake events on click here the fragility curves of steel building construction (structures with different number of stories) by considering relative lateral displacement as a damage criterion.The categories used to describe the change in the relative lateral position were
This paper introduces habit-forming preferences in a Barro-type endogenous growth model with productive public services.Government expenditure, which may be subject to congestion, is financed by distortionary income taxation.Different from the standard time-separable here model, the presence of habits makes the economy feature transitional dynamics
