Game designers and researchers employ a sophisticated language for producing great player experiences with concepts such as juici- ness, which refers to excessive positive feedback. However, much of their discourse excludes ...

This article focuses on inverse kinematic formulation and dynamic modeling of the Nao biped robot's lower body, accompanied by verification with the joints' angles as experimental data. Dynamic modeling in two different ...

Dans l’article signé par Élise Lepage sur Pays sans parole (1967), d’Yves Préfontaine, on assiste au démantèlement de cet optimisme. Le corps, la parole et le territoire sont de partout craquelés, et l’aspiration verticale, ...

Birds in the family Caprimulgidae generally exhibit high nest site fidelity, but it is not known if fidelity extends to foraging sites, especially for Common Nighthawks (Chordeiles minor), which are otherwise one of the ...

The formulation of multi-temperature convection problems in terms of a single driving temperature difference and a single heat transfer coefficient does not properly reflect the physics of the problem. Paired heat transfer ...

The forest-grassland mosaics of southern Brazil have been subject to many land use and policy changes over the decades. Like many grasslands around the world, the Campos grasslands are declining with few conservation efforts ...

Proactive conservation planning for species requires the identification of important spatial attributes across ecologically relevant scales in a model-based framework. However, it is often difficult to develop predictive ...

We consider in this paper three different partial differential equations (PDEs) that can be exponentially stabilized using backstepping controllers. For implementation, a finite-dimensional controller is generally needed. ...

Cet article interroge le paysage urbain dans Le paradis des apparences (2004) de Robert Melançon en mobilisant tour à tour les concepts de « milieu » (Berque) et d’« espaces mineur et majeur » (Desportes), qui invitent à ...
