Abstract Nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS) based on atomically-thin tungsten diselenide (WSe2), benefiting from the excellent material properties and the mechanical degree of freedom, offer an ideal platform for studying and exploiting dynamic strain engineering and cross-scale vibration coupling in two-dimensional (2D) crystals.However, such op
Field Tests of Three Alternative Insecticides with Protein Bait for the Development of an Insecticide Rotation Program to Control Melon Flies, Zeugodacus cucurbitae (Coquillett) (Diptera: Tephritidae)
High levels of resistance to the spinosad-based insecticidal protein bait GF-120 have been detected in some Slippers populations of melon fly, Zeugodacus cucurbitae (Coquillett) (Diptera: Tephritidae), in Hawaii in 2017.To provide cucurbit farmers in Hawaii with alternative insecticides, we field-tested the effectiveness of Agri-Mek SC (a.i., abame
Spare Parts Inventory Optimization for Military Vehicles Using a Mixed Probability Distribution
Purpose: In general, inventory optimization is one of the most important techniques in the production system, because the high cost of an empty warehouse and the cost of losing customers can cause serious damage to a system.The basic idea for inventory is to provide flexibility for a system and protect the system against events such as stock out.In
