Infestation of Olive Fruit Fly, Bactrocera oleae, in California and Taxonomy of its Host Trees [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The results of the trapping survey were analyzed to determine the taxonomy of various tree species infested by the olive fruit fly (Bactrocera oleae) in California. Since its first appearance in California in 1998, the olive fruit fly has spread from Los

Assessment of the oli-picker harvester in Northeast Portugal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Trunk and bough shakers are common equipment for olive harvesting, and therefore information about their performance is becoming available. For less common equipment like canopy shakers, there is a lack of information relative to their field work ...

On the Origins of Toughness in Corymbia calophylla (Marri Tree) Nuts

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
We uncover the natural toughening mechanisms of the marri nut, including fiber pullout, crack deflection, and a viscoelastic matrix, which enable exceptional energy absorption and ductility comparable to Teflon, with an elastic modulus similar to acrylic.

Thermally Induced Creep and Viscoelastic Behavior of Copper Micropillar Arrays

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Copper micropillar arrays are fabricated by electrodeposition within through‐glass‐via, and their thermally induced time‐dependent deformation is quantified. Nanoindentation creep, EBSD, and TEM reveal a heat‐treatment‐driven transition between grain‐boundary‐mediated deformation and dislocation‐dominated creep, while Kelvin modeling captures ...
