An identification key of the Phlebotomus in Madagascar is proposed as well as the description of the male and female Phlebotomus (Anaphlebotomus) vaomalalae n. sp. from Mikea Forest in the south-west of Madagascar. The assignation of this new species to the genus Phlebotomus is based on the presence of mesanepisternal setae. Its inclusion in the subgenus Anaphlebotomus is based on the males on ...

Two new species of Leptohyphidae are described based on nymphs and adults: Traverhyphes (Traverhyphes) frevo sp. nov. and Tricorythopsis spongicola sp. nov. Traverhyphes (T.) frevo can be distinguished from other species, among other characteristics, by the presence of curved penile spines inserted laterally, and posterolateral projections of styliger plate very short and pointed distally in la...

in this work, the waste stone sludge obtained from the granite and marble stone processing factories was used for the manufacture of artificial stones using vibratory compaction in a vacuum environment. the results obtained showed that water absorption and density increased, and the flexure, compressive, and tensile strengths decreased with increase in the content of the waste stone sludge. the...

The “method of overlap” replaces traditional welding to solve the problem how geosynthetic-encased stone column is limited by frame during site construction, making construction simplified and economical, but its bearing mechanism not clear. Therefore, failure mode was studied through compression test multi-layer under dynamic static loading. research shows that encasement improves modulus late...

We show that adding partitioned-buses (as opposed to long buses that span an entire row or column) to ordinary meshes can reduce the routing tame b y approximately one-third f o r permutation routing with locality. A matching time lower bound i s also proved. The result can be generalized to multi-packet routing.

In this paper we study the class of m-row matrix compositions (m-compositions, for short), i.e., m-row matrices with nonnegative integer entries in which every column has at least one non-zero element. We provide several enumerative results, various combinatorial identities, and some combinatorial interpretations. Most of these properties are an extension to matrix compositions of the combinato...
