DOI: 10.1002/jemt.23419

Abstract: Antlion (Myrmeleon sagax) larvae live in sandy soil and possess the ability to enter soil quickly. In this article, the hierarchical structure of the nonsmooth surface of antlion larvae was obtained using a scanning electron… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jestch.2018.11.013

Abstract: Abstract We propose and develop an improved version of antlion optimizer (ALO), namely tournament selection based antlion optimization algorithm for quadratic assignment problem (QAP). ALO algorithm has some handicaps, such as long run time, local… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/07420528.2024.2303977

Abstract: ABSTRACT Temperature influences the survival, growth, and development of insects including the antlion. In the present study, we examined the 24-h rhythm in the pit-building behavior of the antlion larvae at three different temperature conditions,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1242/jeb.224626

Abstract: ABSTRACT Pit-building antlion larvae are predators that construct pitfall traps in fine sand. We used three-dimensional laser scanning and geometric morphometrics to reveal the shape of antlion pits of two antlion species, analysed the particle… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/su15118966

Abstract: A robust, optimized power system stabilizer (PSS) is crucial for oscillation damping, and thus improving electrical network stability. Additionally, real-time testing methods are required to significantly reduce the likelihood of software failure in a real-world… read more here.
