A model-driven framework for supervised reconfiguration of satellite schedulers

Abstract Satellite operations rely on schedulers that must satisfy strict timing, dependency, and resource constraints. In current industrial practice, these scheduler configurations are often defined manually and remain largely static after deployment, making updates labor-inten...

Passive control of shock-wave/turbulent boundary-layer interaction with convergent–divergent riblets

The effects of convergent–divergent (C–D) riblets on an impinging shock-wave/turbulent boundary-layer interaction (STBLI) at Mach 2.0 are investigated using wall-resolved large-eddy simulation. A smooth-wall baseline and two riblet cases with different heights are considered, wit...

Tourism-led initiatives in shrinking villages: towards a qualitative analytical framework beyond urban-centric and growth-oriented perspectives

Purpose This paper aims to propose a qualitative, actor-centred and process-oriented methodological framework for investigating whether and how tourism-led initiatives contribute to the multidimensional resilience of Italian shrinking villages. By bringing the concepts of territo...

Extended Appendix: From X-rays to High-Energy Gamma-rays: A Comprehensive Multi-Wavelength Study of Early Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows

This extended abstract provides additional details, figures, tables, and results supporting the analysis presented in the main manuscript titled "From X-rays to High-Energy Gamma-rays: A Comprehensive Multi-Wavelength Study of Early Gamma-Ray Burst Afterglows". We present the com...

Physics-based 3D ground motion simulations of the 1703 L’Aquila earthquake: from historical reconstruction to seismic scenarios

Abstract The city of L’Aquila (central Italy) and its surrounding villages have been struck several times throughout history by strong earthquakes, most recently by the $$M_w$$ M w 6.1 event of April 6, 2009. Previously, on February 2, 1703, L’Aquila was partially destroyed by a...
