Access to Journal of Guidance Control and Dynamics

As of September 2015 you have access to Journal of Guidance Control and Dynamics    

( http://arc.aiaa.org/loi/jgcd ).

This journal is wanted especially by researchers from the IME faculty, but could be useful to all involved with:

“…dynamics, stability, guidance, control, navigation, optimization, electronics, avionics, and information processing related to aeronautical, astronautical, and marine systems.”

You can access both articles from 2015 and earlier issues as full text (pdf). The older issues will have to go through a control after one year to see if access could still be justified (due to statistical use). So if you want to keep it you should use it!

GEOFACETS a new database available for trial

Geofacets is a map-based research tool designed for geoscientists, that enables you to assess a region or basin’s geologic characteristics. 

You can discover maps by searching a geographical site or basin, but also by a conventional literature search.  The maps are downloadable, geo-referenced, and accompanied by meta data, article abstracts and links to original source articles – and also available as GeoTIFFs for easy integration with GIS and other software.
