Background: Stored cereals are attacked by pests including Sitophilus, a primary insectpestthat kthe whole grain and destroys the germ. The usual control methods are less efficient and more expensive. The use of essential oils of aromatic plants is more interesting. Eucalyptus is a plant of great medicinal value due to the presence of secondary metabolites. Methods: In this experimentation that took place during the year 2017, extraction of oils by hydro distillation of eucalyptus was used on insects at different doses by two methods with are ingestion and inhalation. Two species of Sitophylus are morphologically different as they may be different with regard to the use of biopesticide (eucalyptus essential oil), regarding the mortality rate in relation to the duration of treatment Result: Sitophilus oryzae was more sensitive to this bio-pesticide since it was only after eight (08) hours of treatment that mortality exceeded 50% by the ingestion method whereas only 6.6% of mortality was recorded on Sitophilus granarius. Same observation by the inhalation method, 90% mortality on the third day for Sitophilus oryzae while only 20% mortality on Sitophilus granarius. So the ingestion method requires fewer products plus a speed in the mortality time. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, using a combinatorial approach, we give a combinatorial interpretation of sequences of numbers related to the partial Bell polynomials. Some recurrence relations for these polynomials may be deduced. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, we consider a heat equation with mixed boundary conditions in a two-dimensional domain with a reentrant corner. This allows the solution to exhibit singularities near the corner as well as at the points where the mixed boundary conditions meet. The aim of this work is to establish a Carleman inequality by constructing a convenient weight function. As a consequence, we prove some control results. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

An abdominal-pelvic computed tomography also showed the presence of a large heterogeneous round mass measuring 22 × 19 cm in the lower abdomen and pelvis, located above the uterus. CONSENT FOR PUBLICATION Written consent has been obtained from the patient and the patient's family for the publication of this case report. Leiomyomas are noncancerous tumors that frequently develop in the uterus of adult women, with a prevalence of 20-30% among women aged 35-50. [Extracted from the article]

This research examines the effect of opposing thermal buoyancy on momentum and heat transfer characteristics of a confined cylinder submerged in Newtonian fluid. The detailed flow and temperature field are shown in term of streamlines and isotherm contours. The numerical investigation are done for the range of conditions as Re = 5 to 40, Richardson number Ri = -0.1 to -4, Pr = 1, and blockage ratio β = 0.2. When the buoyancy is opposed, it is depicted that the flow separation becomes asymmetrically and diminishes gradually and at some critical value of Richardson number it totally disappears resulting a creeping flow. Two rotating regions appear under the cylinder and behind the cylinder under the upper channel wall. Moreover, the total drag coefficient and the average Nusselt number are calculated.
