Novel Microwave Sensor for Quality Assurance of Indoor Residual Spraying [PDF]
IEEE Sensors LettersVector-borne diseases, such as visceral leishmaniasis or malaria, are a significant global burden, particularly in low- and middle-income countries in regions with high parasite prevalence. Indoor residual spraying is one of the most effective control tools, if performed effectively. Current World Health Organization (WHO)-recommended quality assurance

Assessment of Electrical Resistance Sensors Sensitivity to Localized Corrosion
Materials and Corrosion, EarlyView.Are electrical resistance (ER) sensors reliable for localized corrosion detection? This study combines analytical modeling and experimental validation to show the vulnerability of ER sensors. The results demonstrate significant underestimation of the true corrosion depth of localized attacks depending on defect's geometry.
