Design of a Monopulse System Using a Single Patch Radiator with a Simple Multi-Mode Substrate Integrated Waveguide Feeding Network

This paper proposes the design of a single radiator monopulse antenna with a substrate integrated minnie mouse beach umbrella waveguide (SIW) multi-mode feeding system to reduce the aperture size and simplify the feeding structure.The proposed antenna can effectively reduce the overall system size by using a single patch radiator, compared to conve

The swim-and-sink behaviour of copepods: a revisit to mechanical power requirement and a new hypothesis on function

Many copepods display a swim-and-sink behaviour, which is not energetically efficient but probably aids in perceiving and capturing diatom chains.Here, computational fluid dynamics was employed to calculate the mechanical power required by a negatively buoyant, self-propelled copepod in swim-and-sink versus hovering.The results show that upward swi
