Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV), a gamma coronavirus, is responsible for a highly contagious disease in chickens resulting in substantial economic losses to the poultry industry around the world.The emergence of new types of IBVs is considered one of the major concerns regarding to IB.A preliminary diagnosis of IB was made based on the flock hist
Matching IoT Devices to the Fog Service Providers: A Mechanism Design Perspective
In the Internet of Things (IoT) + Fog + Cloud architecture, with the unprecedented growth of IoT devices, one of the challenging issues that needs to be tackled is to allocate Fog service providers (FSPs) to IoT devices, especially in a game-theoretic environment.Here, the issue of allocation of FSPs to the IoT devices is sifted with game-theoretic
Transmission error analysis of cycloidal reducers considering crank bearings and output shaft pins
ObjectiveThe transmission Chair error is a critical performance indicator in the design of cycloidal pin wheel reducers.The influence of design parameters for crank bearings and output shaft pins on this error is frequently neglected in existing research.To address the issue, a method for calculating transmission error based on the kinematic and me
Observations on the biting activity of Anopheles triannulatus bachmanni from the Mato Grosso, Brazil
Abstract Home Anopheles triannulatus bachmanni biting man were collected at Aripuana, Mato Grosso.In paired catches less than 5% of the insects were collected biting inside houses, most insects were collected at the edge of the rain forest at sunset.Physiological age determination indicated an even age distribution in the females but the insects fl
