Background Quercus liaotungensis Koidz.is an ecologically and economically important tree species widely distributed in Northern China.However, the effective assessment, utilization, and protection of Q.liaotungensis resources remain unexplored.Methods In total, 120 samples obtained from 12 Q.liaotungensis populations of Northern China were investi
Terrestrial laser scanning (TLS) is an efficient tool to capture the point cloud for facade modeling.However, it is not easy to obtain the position by Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) as occluded by high buildings, which would lead to a problem in orienting the TLS data to a target coordinate Bearings system.In this article, we propose a c
A single component reinforced concrete beam element modified to include varying locations of plastic hinges, was developed for use in the DRAIN-2D computer program.The model simulates the major Collections characteristics of a reinforced concrete beam subjected to load reversals.This model consists of an elastic line element, two inelastic rotation
Aethina tumida (Coleoptera: Nitidulidae - Small Hive Beetle - SHB), is a parasite of honey bee colonies that causes the notifiable disease called aethinosis.In 2014, SHB was detected in Southern Italy, where it is still present (Calabria region).As part of surveillance activities, official diagnosis of the disease is performed by veterinary Surge S
Active noise control (ANC) aims to reduce a noise source at a listening point by destructive interference with a reverse phase noise emitted by one or more control devices.ANC systems cover a wide range of applications, such as industrial plants, vehicle Jumping Saddle cabins, headphones.Usually, in these applications the control devices are loudsp
