GREEN SYNTHESIS OF SILVER NANOPARTICLES USING SOLANUM MAMMOSUM L. (SOLANACEAE) FRUIT EXTRACT AND THEIR LARVICIDAL ACTIVITY AGAINST AEDES AEGYPTI L. (DIPTERA: CULICIDAE).

Green synthesis of silver nanoparticles using Solanum mammosum L. (Solanaceae) fruit extract and their larvicidal activity against Aedes aegypti L. (Diptera: Culicidae).

The family of mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) contains several species of major public health relevance due to their role as vectors of human disease.One of these species, Aedes aegypti, is responsible for the transmission of some of the most important vector-borne viruses Default affecting humankind, including dengue fever, chikungunya and Zika.Tr

Dynamic Control of Kinematically Redundant Robotic Manipulators

Several BELT methods for task space control of kinematically redundant manipulators have been proposed in the literature.Most of these methods are based on a kinematic analysis of the manipulator.In this paper we propose a control algorithm in which we are especially concerned with the manipulator dynamics.The algorithm is particularly well suited
