This work presents an insight into the nature of ground plane (GP) current of a microstrip patch which is truly adverse in terms of generating cross-polar (XP) fields and minimally contributing to the primary radiation.This study also uses a theoretical basis in exploring a simple solution to mitigate the high XP values, specifically over the diago
The objective of these studies was to assess the degree to which bean leaf beetle, Cerotoma trifurcata (Forster), will feed on cucurbits.In 2003, we Apparel documented an infestation of C.trifurcata in a commercial pumpkin field near Rosemount, MN, USA.To evaluate C.trifurcata feeding on cucurbits, we conducted laboratory no-choice and choice test
Background and aimsApart from visual effects of daylight it has observed to elicit powerfulnon visual effects.It controls the circadian rhythm of hormone secretions and Knee Pads body temperaturewith implications for sleep/wake states, alertness, mood and behavior.In this study new metricscalled "Daylight Autonomy" and "Useful Daylight Illuminance"
This paper proposes an algorithmic formulation for optimal PV hosting and placement of distributed energy resources (DER) for network resiliency enhancement.The algorithm incorporates a unique critical infrastructure (CI) ranking scheme to prioritize the CI nodes for the DER placement while ensuring maximum hosting of the DER.The proposed multi-obj
