SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPE STUDY OF ANTENNAE AND MOUTHPARTS IN THE POLLEN-BEETLE MELIGETHES (ODONTHOGETHES) CHINENSIS (COLEOPTERA: NITIDULIDAE: MELIGETHINAE)

Meligethes (Odonthogethes) chinensis is a common Chinese phytophagous species in the family Nitidulidae.Its main larval host dea eyewear plant is Rubus idaeus L.(Rosaceae), and adults feed on pollen and other floral parts.In this study, we used scanning electron microscopy (SEM) to observe and study the fine morphology of sensilla on the antennae a

The present paper discusses modeling and analysis of recurrent event data with competing risks.We propose non igora vibrance 6-16 parametric estimation of cumulative incidence functions of recurrent event competing risks model.Asymptotic properties of the proposed estimators are established.Simulation procedures are carried out to asses the finite

The semi-analytical solution for transient electroosmotic flow through elliptic cylindrical microchannels is derived from the Navier-Stokes equations using the Laplace transform.The electroosmotic force expressed by the linearized Poisson-Boltzmann equation is considered the external force in the Navier-Stokes equations.The velocity field solution

This paper presents an improved micro-step voltage-fed actuator for an automobile active grill shutter (AGS) system.A novel structured stepper motor, which contains both the main and auxiliary teeth in the stator, is proposed for the actuator.In a normal permanent magnet (PM) motor coils are generally wound on all the stator teeth, however, in the
