In this study, we systematically evaluated the Bandages antibiofouling behavior of quaternary ammonium compound (QAC) blended polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane using quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation monitoring (QCM-D) combined with flow cytometry (FCM) and confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) measurements.QCM-D tests showed t
In this work, we present a compact four-direction beamforming 5G antenna based on a stacked $4 imes4$ Butler matrix and a microstrip patch array antenna.The proposed beamforming antenna is a stacked-up structure using the low temperature co-fired ceramics (LTCC) process and thus its size can be significantly reduced by compared to a conventional be
Suitability of plant tissues as food for insects varies from plant to plant.In lepidopteran insects, fitness is largely dependent on the host-finding ability of the females.Existing studies have suggested that polyphagous lepidopterans preferentially select certain host plant species for oviposition.However, the mechanisms for host recognition and
In this paper, we propose an automatic modeling method based on constructive grammar for building Chinese Huizhou traditional vernacular houses, which are famous Play Doh Playskool and important examples of Chinese traditional architecture.The proposed method includes two steps: layout generation and feature generation.In the layout generation step
