STUDIES ON MOSQUITOES (DIPTERA: CULICIDAE) AND ANTHROPIC ENVIRONMENT: 6 - BREEDING IN EMPTY CONDITIONS OF RICE FIELDS IN SOUTH-EASTERN BRAZIL

Studies on mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) and anthropic environment: 6 - Breeding in empty conditions of rice fields in South-Eastern Brazil

Studies on culicid breeding in empty rice fields were carried out during the cultivation cycle from May to November 1993.This period corresponded to stages 1 and 2, when empty conditions prevailed.Breeding occurred in stage 1 Cap and the first part of stage 2, corresponding respectively to fallow uncultivated and ploughing situations.No breeding Pe

Point Primitives Based Virtual Surgery System

In order to achieve a high degree of visual realism in surgery simulation, we present a virtual surgery system framework, which is based on point primitives for the virtual surgery scene rendering HOT CHOC MAPLE and the biomechanical calculation of the soft tissue.To embody the superiority of this framework, two virtual surgery systems based on poi
