Journal ArticleDOI

Ingested RNA interference for managing the populations of the Colorado potato beetle, Leptinotarsa decemlineata.

Fang Zhu, +4 more
- 01 Feb 2011 - 
TL;DR: This study provides the first example of an effective RNAi response in insects after feeding ds RNA produced in bacteria, and suggests that the efficient induction of RNAi using bacteria to deliver dsRNA is a possible method for management of Colorado potato beetle.
Journal ArticleDOI

Micro-tomography based analysis of thermal conductivity, diffusivity and oxidation behavior of rigid and flexible fibrous insulators

Francesco Panerai, +7 more
- 01 May 2017 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the properties and oxidation behavior of low-density felts used as substrates for conformal carbon/phenolic ablators with those of a rigid carbon fiber preform used to manufacture heritage lightweight ablators.
Journal ArticleDOI

Modeling the oxidation of low-density carbon fiber material based on micro-tomography

Joseph C. Ferguson, +5 more
- 01 Jan 2016 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of the diffusion/reaction processes on the decomposition of a porous carbon material in various regimes were investigated using a particle method for simulations of the oxidation process at microscale.
Journal ArticleDOI

PuMA: the Porous Microstructure Analysis software

Joseph C. Ferguson, +3 more
- 01 Jan 2018 - 
TL;DR: The PuMA software has been developed in order to compute effective material properties and perform material response simulations on digitized microstructures of porous media and includes a time-dependent, particle-based model for the oxidation of fibrous materials.
Journal ArticleDOI

Anisotropic analysis of fibrous and woven materials part 2: Computation of effective conductivity

Federico Semeraro, +5 more
- 01 Jan 2021 - 
TL;DR: In this article, a multi-point flux approximation method was used to predict the thermal conductivity of anisotropic materials based on the three-dimensional reconstruction of their fibrous structure, obtained from X-ray micro-tomography.
