SEXUAL DIMORPHISM AND INTER-INDIVIDUAL VARIATION IN THE ROVE BEETLE, CREOPHILUS MAXILLOSUS L. (COL: STAPHYLINIDAE)

Sexual dimorphism and inter-individual variation in the rove beetle, Creophilus maxillosus L. (Col: Staphylinidae)

Sexual selection is expected to drive phenotypic differences between conspecific male and females, a widespread phenomenon known as sexual dimorphism.At the same time, individuals may exhibit some degree of intra-sexual variation.We examined the sexual dimorphism and inter-individual variation in different body parts of Creophilus maxillosus L.(Col

Exergy Analysis of Complex Ship Energy Systems

With multiple primary and secondary energy converters (diesel engines, steam turbines, waste heat recovery (WHR) and oil-fired boilers, etc.) and extensive energy networks (steam, cooling water, exhaust gases, etc.), ships may be considered as complex energy systems.Understanding and optimizing ASCORBIC ACID such systems requires advanced holistic

Viscous Dissipation and Thermal Radiation effects in MHD flow of Jeffrey Nanofluid through Impermeable Surface with Heat Generation/Absorption

This paper investigates steady two dimensional flow of an incompressible magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) boundary layer flow and heat transfer of nanofluid over an impermeable surface in presence of thermal radiation and viscous dissipation.By using similarity transformation, the arising governing equations of momentum, energy and nanoparticle concentrat
