Spiders are important predatory organisms in the orchards.Keeping in view their role in the natural biological control, the present studies were conducted from May 2012 to October 2019 in orchards belonging to 21 fruit crops, viz.apple (Malus sp.), amla (Phyllanthus emblica), citrus (Citrus spp.), banana (Musa spp.), ber (Zizyphus mauritiana), fig
This research was performed to assess the potential of cereal/legume intercropping to enhance forage yield and quality when compared with cereal sole crops under the constrains imposed by UE organic farming regulations.Sole crops (SC) and intercrops (IC) of two winter cereals, Occassion Dresses barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) and durum wheat (Triticum
A distributed and cooperative link-scheduling (DCLS) algorithm is introduced for large-scale multihop wireless networks.With this algorithm, Soccer - Clothing Junior Bottoms - Pants each and every active link in the network cooperatively calibrates its environment and converges to a desired link schedule for data transmissions within a time frame o
In this paper the objective is to force the outputs of nonlinear nonaffine multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems to track those of a linear system with the desired properties.The approach is based on designing higher order sliding mode controller (HOSMC) with the definition of a new proportional-integral (PI) sliding surface.To this end, a linear
The modular multilevel converter with embedded batteries is a viable alternative in electric vehicle drive systems.This research investigates integrated charging of the embedded batteries in a three-phase converter from a single-phase source without any additional hardware requirements.Two phases of the converter are connected to the supply while t
