Dynamics and risk assessment of pesticides in cucumber through field experiments and model simulation
2020
Abstract Pesticides are often applied multiple times during cucumber cultivation in China. In order to obtain the residue concentrations and subsequently human health risk assessment after pesticide multiple applications, plenty of field trials have been conducted, consuming a lot of labor force and funds. The application of kinetic models can address this problem to some extent by predicting the residue values of pesticides in cucumber. In this study, a dynamic model (dynamiCROP) was applied in combination with field experiments to investigate the distribution, translocation, and dissipation after the one-time application of seven pesticides in a cucumber-soil environment. Moreover, the re…
Mode-superposition correction method for deterministic and stochastic analysis of structural systems
2001
The role played by the modal analysis in the framework of structural dynamics is fundamental from both deterministic and stochastic point of view. However the accuracy obtained by means of the classical modal analysis is not always satisfactory. Therefore it is clear the importance of methods able to correct the modal response in such a way to obtain the required accuracy. Many methods have been proposed in the last years but they are meaningful only when the forcing function is expressed by an analytical function. Moreover in stochastic analysis they fail for white noise excitation. In the paper a method able to give a very accurate response for both deterministic and stochastic input is p…
On the flexural vibrations of sandwich plates
1995
A simplified approach to sandwich plate free vibrations, based on the superposition method, can provide approximations to the lowest modes for various boundary conditions, showing a characteristic influence of the bending-shear stiffness ratio.
Color superposition: a new modality for contrast echocardiography.
1987
To improve the estimation of endocardial borders in echocardiography, a technique has been developed to combine images from contrasted and noncontrasted echocardiograms of the same heart-phase using a color superposition mode. This method allows both experienced as well as less experienced examiners to define the endocardial borders more reproducibly and objectively. This is achieved by displaying tissue structures as gray level images while the ventricular cavity is marked selectively by the color display of the contrast material zone. Results of volume estimations of the left ventricle by different examiners using several imaging modes including color superposition display are presented.
