Flit-gun sprayer characteristics [PDF]
Revista Panamericana de Salud Pública, 1998 Six flit-gun sprayers were tested for possible use in mosquito adulticide programs where inexpensive nonmotorized application technology may be required. An analysis of variance for differences in droplets < or = 24 microns (mu), droplets > or = 48 mu, droplets/cm2, volume median diameters, and mosquito mortality is provided.

Fluid Dynamics-Based Distance Estimation Algorithm for Macroscale Molecular Communication [PDF]
Nano Communication Networks, vol. 28, p. 100351, 2021, 2020 Many species, from single-cell bacteria to advanced animals, use molecular communication (MC) to share information with each other via chemical signals. Although MC is mostly studied in microscale, new practical applications emerge in macroscale. It is essential to derive an estimation method for channel parameters such as distance for practical ...
