Semifield Evaluation of Improved Passive Outdoor Host Seeking Device (POHD) for Outdoor Control of Anopheles arabiensis Mosquitoes [PDF]
The Scientific World Journal, 2020 Despite the considerable progress made so far, the effectiveness and mass application of odour-baited outdoor mosquito control devices in pipelines is limited by several factors.

Journal of Combinatorial Theory, Series A, 1999 \textit{T. Penttila} and \textit{B. Williams} [Geom. Dedicata, to appear] have constructed a sporadic translation ovoid of the quadrangle \(Q(4, 3^5)\). Associated with this, there is a new (semifield) flock of a quadratic cone in \(\text{PG}(3,3^5)\), and hence a flock generalized quadrangle of order \((3^5,3^{10})\).

On the classification of semifield flocks [PDF]
Advances in Mathematics, 2003 The main result of this paper is the following one: Let \({\mathcal F}\) be a flock of a quadratic cone over the field \(\text{GF}(g^n)\) associated with a semifield plane with kernel \(\text{GF}(q)\), and such that \(q\geq 4n^2- 8n+ 2\), then \({\mathcal F}\) is a linear flock (all planes of the flock contain a fixed line), or a Kantor-Knuth flock ...

Searching for semifield flocks [PDF]
Discrete Mathematics, 2002 In the projective space \(PG(3,q)\) let \(K\) be a quadratic cone with vertex \(v\) ; a flock \(\mathcal {F}\) of \(K\) is a set of \(q\) disjoint conics partitioning \ \(K \setminus \{ v \}\). The interest in flocks is due to their links with many geometric objects. For instance a spread (i.e.

Efficacy of Seed Oils From Azadirachta indica and Schinus molle and Their Combination Against Anopheles gambiae s.l. [PDF]
Journal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.Due to the increasing resistance to synthetic insecticides and the proliferation of resistant strains of malaria vectors, plant‐derived essential oils (EOs) are gaining prominence as an alternative for controlling Anopheles gambiae s.l. larvae.

Estimating the efficacy and plume reach of semiochemical‐baited traps on the capture of Trogoderma granarium everts [PDF]
Pest Management Science, Volume 81, Issue 8, Page 4471-4480, August 2025."Simulated warehouse": In this study, we take the step of testing existing and modified trap designs for Trogoderma after the release of T. granarium exclusively. This work will serve to evaluate trap efficacy, while providing a template for further attractant–kill research. The most effective trap was dome trap.

The nuclei and other properties of p-primitive semifield planes [PDF]
International Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 1992 In this article the nuclei of p-primitive semifield planes are studied. The behavior of this class of planes under the operations of derivation, transposition and dualization is also analyzed.

Results of Ring-Testing of a Semifield Study Design to Investigate Potential Impacts of Crop Protection Products on Bumblebees (Hymenoptera, Apidae) and a Proposal of a Potential Test Design. [PDF]
Environ Toxicol Chem, 2022 In Europe, the risk assessment for bees at the European Union or national level has always focussed on potential impacts on honeybees. During the revision of the European Food Safety Authority bee guidance it was explicitly stated that bumblebees and ...
