A Methodology To Consider The Operational Constraints Of Collective Irrigation By Coupling Plants And Agents Trajectories (Copat), Bastien Richard
International Congress on Environmental Modelling and Software
Thanks to plant growth models it is possible to generate optimal irrigation strategies at the plot scale. However, in many places irrigation is managed collectively in order to share water supply infrastructures. The purpose of the study is to evaluate the impact of collective irrigation constraints (e.g. irrigation time slots, maximum number of simultaneous irrigations, etc.) on several plant indicators. To achieve this, we propose a methodology for coupling the Optirrig model for the generation, analysis and optimization of irrigation scenarios, with the CORMAS WatASit multi-agent model which represents collective irrigated systems at the operational level. Based on the Situated …

Increasing Isolation Between Closely Spaced X-Band Planar Transmit/Receive Antennas, Jacob Bartschi
Undergraduate Honors Theses
Coupling between Tx/Rx antennas is a common and much-researched problem that is especially difficult when the antennas both placed close together and on the same plane. New systems with smaller footprints require this kind of placement while still maintaining the same levels of isolation as before. Traditional solutions for coupling involve large and heavy machined parts that are unsuited to compact systems. Many techniques have been proposed over the decades, but few have been applied to X-band antennas in closely spaced configurations. This thesis investigates those techniques, applies them to closely spaced X-band antennas, and compares them to conventional methods …
