Stink bugs are major pests in diverse crops around the world.Pest management strategies based on insect behavioral manipulation could help to develop biorational management strategies of stink bugs.Insect mating disruption using vibratory signals is an approach with high potential for pest management.The objective of this work was to investigate th
This paper presents a detailed analysis of the research Motor Bracket into modern thermal energy storage systems dedicated to autonomous buildings.The paper systematises the current state of knowledge concerning thermal energy storage systems and their use of either phase change materials or sorption systems; it notes their benefits, drawbacks, app
A fully coupled computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and discrete element method (DEM) model was calibrated using a draw down test (DDT) under submerged conditions.Momentum smoothing and cell clustering were used to model particles that were larger than the cells.The DEM input parameter values were initially set equal to those calibrated for the dry
