Tabanus spp. Horse fly/ Breeze fly/ Gad fly These are very large flies with very large eyes and gap between them is small. Antennae are projected forward in front of the head and have 3 segments. The first 2 segments of the antenna are small‚ the third segment has 4 annulations and has a tooth like projection called spur. Flies hold their wings horizontally at rest. Proboscis is short The mouth part consists of two jointed well-developed palps‚ a pair of well developed mandibles and maxillae

Fruit Fly Genetics Lab Kelly Hernandez 5/31/14 Drosophila melanogaster is a small‚ common fly found near unripe and rotted fruit. It has been in use for over a century to study genetics. Thomas Hunt Morgan was the best biologist studying Drosophila early in the 1900’s. Morgan was the first to discover sex-linkage and genetic recombination‚ which placed the small fly in the forefront of genetic research. Scientists have used Drosophila for many reasons. For one they are very easy to maintain‚

- Body Planes and Sections: 1. Sagittal plane is a vertical plane that divides the body into right and left parts. A sagittal plane that lies exactly in the midline is the median plane‚ or midsagittal plane. All other sagittal planes‚ offset from the midline‚ are parasagittal planes. 2. Frontal planes‚ like sagittal planes‚ lie vertically. Frontal planes‚ however‚ divide the body into anterior and posterior parts. A frontal plane is also called a coronal plane. 3. Transverse or horizontal‚ plane

Numerous flight data has been collected on a Piper Saratoga while flying in different configurations. The data focuses on the coefficient of lift and the coefficient of drag while the aircraft is pitched at various angles of attack. This paper examines the research process and the data that was collected in order to determine the lift to drag ratio for various angles of attack. Objectives To experimentally determine both the coefficient of lift 〖(C〗_L) and the coefficient of drag (C_D) of a Piper

The Cessna Citation X corporate jet is equipped with two Rolls-Royce AE 3007C engines capable of producing over 6‚400 lbf of thrust each‚ they propel the Citation X to a maximum speed equal to 92% of the speed of sound at altitude (.92 MACH). While these engines are extremely powerful‚ have amazing reliability‚ and operate in environmental extremes. The steps required to start‚ operate‚ and shutdown the Rolls-Royce AE 3007C Turbojet engine are relatively simple. Before starting the engines several

Fair Science Testing With Paper Airplanes 1. Find an airplane template to follow. Design your airplane. Test it with many flights. Practise how to hold and throw it to produce the most consistent straight flight. 2. Decide what aspect of your paper airplane you would like to investigate to see whether it will have an effect on its flight distance. You will need to change it a minimum of three times and will therefore need to build three airplanes. 3. Choose from the following: Size of paper plane

lattice method for two-dimensional flows past thin airfoils. The method is even more useful for three-dimensional wings‚ i.e.‚ for the flow past wings of finite span‚ but that problem is not considered here. Instead‚ the reader is referred to standard aerodynamics texts‚ e.g.‚ [2]. In this numerical procedure to solve the thin-airfoil problem‚ we place a finite number of discrete vortices along the chord line‚ with the boundary condition that the induced vertical velocity dyc v= − α‚ (1) dx be enforced at
