Stable flies preferentially oviposit on sites offering conspecific eggs with egg‐derived airborne semiochemicals. Egg‐borne bacterial symbionts, and Serratia marcescens in particular, produce odorants which attract gravid female flies and elicit oviposition.

Multiple lateral wingtip blowing: an experimental study
O uso de sopro lateral a partir da ponta de uma asa, desloca para fora seus vórtices de ponta, aumentando sua envergadura efetiva. Este aumento reflete em incremento na sustentação da asa e redução em seu arrasto induzido.

This work aimed to apply the principles of skin mark analysis to a cetacean species to build a sex‐discrimination model exclusively based on photographic material. Relevant differences between sexes emerged in markings, with males presenting more social, aggression‐related, and fishing‐related marks overall, and a stronger tendency of mark accumulation

New Results From the Pre‐Pottery Neolithic Site of Al Uyaynah, Tabuk, in Northwestern Saudi Arabia
ABSTRACT Al Uyaynah is a low sandstone mound on an alluvial plain, long known for its extensive surface remains of stone‐built circular and rectangular structures. Following test excavations in 2012, more detailed excavation was undertaken in 2016 within one of the largest rectangular stone structures.

PIV measurements on a Blowing Flap
PIV measurements of the flow in the region of a flap side edge are presented for several blowing flap configurations. The test model is a NACA 632-215 Hicks Mod-B main-element airfoil with a half-span Fowler flap.

Lithic analysis in African archaeology: Advances and key themes
Abstract Stone artifacts (lithics) preserve for extended periods; thus they are key evidence for probing the evolution of human technological behaviors. Africa boasts the oldest record of stone artifacts, spanning 3.3 Ma, rare instances of ethnographic stone tool‐making, and stone tool archives from diverse ecological settings, making it an anchor for ...

Trailing-Edge Blowing of Model Fan Blades for Wake Management
Model fan blades designed to implement the wake management technique of trailing-edge blowing were tested in a linear cascade configuration. Measurements were made on two sets of blowing blades installed in the Virginia Tech low-speed linear cascade ...

Squealer Tip Heat Transfer With Film Cooling
Heat transfer coefficients and film cooling effectiveness values were obtained numerically on a film cooled 2-D gas turbine blade tip model featuring a cutback squealer. In addition, pressure distributions were obtained at 50% and 98% spans.

ABSTRACT Background/Objective 3D printed materials have been evaluated for fabricating mouthguards; however, little is known about their biomechanical performance in preventing dental trauma. This study aimed to compare two 3D printed polymers and three ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) sheets used for mouthguard fabrication regarding their mechanical ...
