EXPOSURE AND INFECTION TO PLASMODIUM KNOWLESI IN CASE STUDY COMMUNITIES IN NORTHERN SABAH, MALAYSIA AND PALAWAN, THE PHILIPPINES.

Exposure and infection to Plasmodium knowlesi in case study communities in Northern Sabah, Malaysia and Palawan, The Philippines.

BackgroundPrimarily impacting poor, rural populations, the zoonotic malaria Plasmodium knowlesi is now the main cause of human malaria within Malaysian Borneo.While data is increasingly available on symptomatic cases, little is known about community-level patterns of exposure and infection.Understanding the true burden of disease and associated ris

An Improved Principle of Rapid Oscillation Suppression of a Pendulum by a Controllable Moving Mass: Theory and Simulation

An improved principle is proposed in this paper to achieve a more efficient amplitude suppression of an oscillating pendulum by a controllable moving mass.By establishing the governing equation of the pendulum with a moving mass, several suppression rules are presented to stipulate the motion parameters of the moving mass.The damping ratio is intro
