Discrete and continuous mathematical investigation of juvenile mosquito dynamics
… We investigate how restricting resources changes development time, survival to adulthood, and body mass at emergence. The interactions between these changes are complicated, so to disentangle their effects we create three different mathematical models. The first model is discrete in time and …

Behavior of wild-type and laboratory-adapted cabbage loopers, Tr̲ich̲o̲pl̲u̲s̲i̲a n̲i (Hübner) (Lepidoptera:Noctuidae)
Three criteria, development, flight, and oviposition, were used to compare a laboratory-adapted and wild-type colony of Trichoolusia ni. The laboratory-adapted colony was further examined to determine the effect of larval crowding and starvation on the above criteria. The laboratory-adapted colony …

Sviluppo di algoritmi avanzati di analisi e diagnosi combustione in tempo reale per motori endotermici alternativi
… fuel economy are the main drivers of the engine development process. As a consequence, the complexity of the propulsion units and its subsystems increase, due to the extensive use of sensors and actuators needed to obtain a precise control over the combustion phase. Since engine calibration …

Effects of photoperiod, temperature, and diet on the development of the banded woollybear, Pyrrharctia (Isia) isabella (J. E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Arctiidae).
… of 6 artificial diets and fresh plantain. The times of moulting, head capsule widths, larval and pupal weights, and adult characteristics (fertility, sex) were recorded. Larvae were easily reared on bean, wheat germ, casein-wheat germ and fresh plantain, while casein, alfalfa, and plantain …

Dynamic modeling and hardware in the loop testing of chemical processes
… It provides many advantages to the standard development path of building a physical prototype and then running tests. Benefits of HIL testing include decreased development time, reduced cost, increased safety, and better control algorithm development. For this work, HIL testing consists of an …

The impact of chlortetracycline on Drosophila melanogaster and Aedes aegypti
… investigated by assessing life-span, fecundity, development time, survival, nutrition and metabolism. The impact on microbial numbers and diversity was also determined. With Drosophila, treatment with 50 µg ml-1 and above showed a significant extension in development time and life-span, reduction …

Interactions Between Protozoan Prey (<i>Phylum protista</i>) and Their Mosquito Predators (Order <i>Diptera</i>, Family <i>Cuclicidae</i>) Prey Size and Predator Behavior Effects
… differences for either species in survival. development time, or adult mass between mosquitoes that were fed protozoans or not. I investigated differences m larval behavior between four species of mosquito larvae. Differences m feeding behaviors were significantly greater between genera than …

The role of ontology in information management
… ontologies by information systems affects their development and their performance. Several aspects about ontologies are presented, namely design and implementation issues, representational languages, and tools for ontology manipulation. The effects of the combination of ontologies and information …

Sound Synthesis Using Programmable System-On-Chip Devices
… both in terms of component costs and development time compared to the FPGA-based approach. Actually, the FPGA-approach was determined to be prohibitively expensive in terms of the development time incurred. The sound quality analysis demonstrated that both instruments were perceived by …

The Prevalence and Effect of Wolbachia Infection on the Brown Widow Spider (Latrodectus Geometricus)
… size, egg size, and egg mass) and juvenile development time. No significant difference in clutch sex ratio, egg number, egg size, egg mass, or development time was found between infected and uninfected females. These results suggest that the strain is not an obligate symbiont nor does it …

Analytical modelling of annular flow magnetorheological valves for advanced fluid control
… over mechanical valves. The current design and development process of these valves largely leverages computer simulation and experimental analysis. This dependency on physical and computer based models is a process that is both costly and time consuming. In this work, an analytical model was …

Reconfigurable logic test methodologies for ISDN
This portfolio presents three separate design and development projects. Each project addresses a different aspect of ISDN testing. Field programmable gate array (FPGA) technology was employed to facilitate the development. The design and development work produced a hardware platform that could be …

Fault tolerant design implementation on radiation hardened by design SRAM-Based FPGAs
… to their in-flight reconfigurability, decreased development time and cost, and increased design and testing flexibility. The Xilinx Virtex-5QV is the first commercially available Radiation Hardened By Design (RHBD) SRAM-based FPGA; however, not all of its internal components are hardened against …

Simulation and optimisation of the Interior High Pressure (IHP) manufacturing process using the Finite Element Method (FEA)
… trial and error approach (“Real Prototyping”) is time consuming, and hence very costly. Simulation of the manufacturing processes within the production engineering (“Digital Prototyping”) can help to reduce production time and therefore reduce this considerable cost. Simulation of the IHP forming …
