The sloshing phenomenon occurs in partially filled tankers due to sudden movement can affect the tank structure integrity and impair the dynamic stability of the tanker. The effects of sloshing phenomena in a spray mixture ...

This paper presents a numerical and experimental study of spray fluid performance with stirring in tanks of agricultural sprayers. The pesticide spray should be stirred properly to ensure spraying homogeneity throughout ...

In agriculture, the mixing of pesticides in tanks is a common practice. However, it is necessary to previse possible physical-chemical implications of this practice, which may affect the efficiency of the treatments ...

BACKGROUNDPrevious research has sought to adopt the use of drift-reducing technologies (DRTs) for use in field trials to control diamondback moth (DBM) Plutella xylostella (L.) (Lepidoptera: Plutellidae) in canola (Brassica ...

Brazil is now one of the world’s largest exporters of grains, particularly for crops such as soybean (Glycine max) and corn (Zea mays). It gained prominence in international commodities trading with large exports to several ...

O fenômeno de sloshing de um líquido em reservatórios parcialmente cheios, causado por mudanças bruscas e repentinas de um veículo em movimento, pode impactar na integridade estrutural do reservatório e, ao mesmo tempo, ...

This paper aimed at investigating the knowledge level of people working on pesticide spraying activities concerning spray adjuvant properties, as well as collecting information on disposal locations for residues from ...

The aim of this work was to evaluate drift reduction technologies (DRTs) by analyzing the droplet spectrum generated by air induction nozzles spraying solutions containing adjuvants and a mixture of glyphosate and dicamba. ...
