ABSTRACT The pest status of pea aphid (Acyrthosiphum pisum H.) in faba bean (Vicia faba L.) cultivation has gained importance because it transmits Pea necrotic yellow dwarf virus (PNYDV), a novel nanovirus in Europe. This study evaluated two faba bean varieties, ‘Fuego’ and ‘GL Sunrise’, grown under sole crop (SC) and intercrop (IC) conditions with oat

Aerodynamic performances of twist morphing MAV wing / Noor Iswadi Ismail
Performing the biomimetic morphing method on a Micro Air Vehicle (MAV) wing is very challenging tasks due to the MAV wing size limitation, limited energy budgets, complicated morphing mechanism and complex aeroelastic interactions.

Moralized Identities in and Around Organizations: An Identity Work Perspective
Abstract In this article, we examine the literature on moralized identities – the range of identities that people construct for themselves that are underpinned by issues of morality. We problematize traditional theorizing by drawing on the identity work perspective to provide an explanatory framework that diverts attention away from a focus on what ...

Development of Flexible-rib Morphing Wing System
This study is concerned with the development of a novel morphing wing system for use in relatively small (10 kg) Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). To achieve improved flight performance with limited weight penalty, camber-adjustable morphing wing strategy

ABSTRACT Separatist nationalism often persists in divided minority regions where internal factions struggle to agree on governance models, perpetuating conflict and political tension. This article examines the key structural and situational factors driving these divisions in Corsica, focusing on economic dependencies that shape divergent approaches to ...

What's Wrong With Self‐Censorship?
ABSTRACT In recent years, discourse on freedom of speech has shifted away from exclusive focus on the state and towards societal threats to speech. Amidst this change, the notion of “self‐censorship” has gained increased prominence. Not only has self‐censorship emerged as a common reference point, several recent studies identify it as embodying a ...

The swallowtail butterfly Papilio machaon has a brown‐ and green‐coloured morph, with the brown being more common in the diapausing generation. The darker colouration of brown pupae did not confer advantages for thermoregulation when developing, but they did have lower diapause metabolic rates.

Investigating zeta‐cypermethrin resistance stability in California Drosophila suzukii populations
After continuous selection and removal of selection pressure in spotted‐wing Drosophila, zeta‐cypermethrin resistance remained stable over several generations. Following a population bottleneck, zeta‐cypermethrin resistance increased without selection, highlighting the importance of insecticide rotation.

Aerodynamic Shape Optimization of Airplane Winglet & Investigation Into Morphing Winglet Technology
While airplane design has been carefully crafted, there is always room for improvement. One debated topic within the aerospace industry is which fixed airfoil winglet design best increases lift while decreasing drag.
