Weevil larvae, the insects at their stage of development from an egg to before their adult form, are the cause of severe and widespread damage to certain palm tree species.

Abstract: This paper introduces a qualitative revision of the traditional LC tank circuit in the fractional domain. The paper can be divided into six major parts, aiming in turn to establish the various conditions under which impedance may act as a resistor, negative resistor, or a positive or negative pure imaginary inductor or capacitor, in accordance to new frequency definitions; illustrate the

  Fractal Fresnel lens

  Farahan Abdul Ghaffar, et al., "24-GHz LTCC Fractal Antenna Array SoP With Integrated Fresnel Lens" IEEE Antennas and Wireless Propagation Letters, 10, 2011, 705. Abstract: A novel 24-GHz mixed low-temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) tape based system-on-package (SoP) is presented, which incorporates a fractal antenna array with an integrated grooved Fresnel lens. The four-element fractal array employs a relatively low dielectric constant substrate (CT707, ), whereas the lens has been realized on a high-dielectric-constant superstrate (CT765, ). The two (substrate and super- strate) are
