The infectivity of Heterorhabditis megidis infective juveniles (IJs) increases during storage in water. We investigated whether this change can be related to other features of the IJs' behaviour. IJs were stored in water for 4 weeks at 20 degrees C, and the following parameters were assessed at intervals: infectivity for Galleria mellonella, dispersal in sand, host-finding on agar, and the perc...

I. Introduction During the past three decades, there has been a paradigm shift from import substitution strategies towards export‐oriented industrialization. It is in this context that countries saw the need to create special economic zones (SEZs) and export processing zones (EPZs), so‐called ecozones, to cope with the increasingly competitive environment of the global market.

We introduce a new surface deformation and modeling method in this paper. Referring to the swept volume generation, the surface is pulled or pushed along a trajectory curve. The key point is the sweeping function. Surface points are moved to where they should be during sweeping operations according to the global parameter, which is determined by topological distance. An index factor controls ho...

USARSim is a simulator used for rescuing tasks in the RoboCup Rescue based on the Unreal Engine. In order to fulfil the rising expectations of this cup, not only the robots but the environment has to keep up with the demands. Vital to the environment is a good representation of victims in need of rescue. Up to now victims in USARSim have not been capable of performing movement, controlled anima...
